THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MARCH 17, 1896, [RELAND'S NATIONAL DAY Celebrations in Homor of the Motherland and St Patrick. MUSIC, SONG AND ORATORY. Father Ferguson’s Eloquent Address on the Glory and Achievement { of the Celtic Race. San Francisco will wake up United States this moriing, but it is likely to g0 to bed Irish to-night—for it is St. Pat- rick’s day and every liishman will extend the glad hand to his neighbor. The cele- bration of the apostolic anniversary, which is observed generally by the Celtic race as a national boliday, really began last night | with entertainments of a musical and lit- erary character. = } The entertainment held in Metrovolitan | Temple last night under the auspices of | the Christian Doctrine Society, was an ug- alloyed success. Rev. J. P. Ferguson’s oration was the feature of the evening, but the large au- dience found nothing to criticize other than favorably in the exercises which pre- ceded and followed his address. 1 The programme was carried out as fol- ows: Organ selections, Professor J. Harrison; Tecitation, “Prayer to St. Patriek,” Miss Emma Himmelstoss; chorus, “Up for the Green,” Erin Choral Circle; dance fantasie, Miss Gertie Hogan and Miss Annie McDonnell, acco panist Miss Edna Honn; tenor solo, “The ) strel Boy,” Harry Dinan; song and- march, | Companies A and B, Erin Choral Cadets; vocal solo, “‘Star-spangled Banner,” Miss M.

Mr. Ferguson spoke in sub—! stance as follows: o | It has been said that no pen has ever done | justice to Ireland’s patron saint. | When St. Patrick landed on the shores of | Irelend he founda people at once ignorant | and honest. He converted them to Christianity | in sixty years without the loss of one drop of blood. The day which is devoted to h memory brings a feeling of loyaity to eve: Irish heart. He taught them not only Chris tianity, but the principles of patriotism and | democracy. He tanght them the principles of | Christian faith and national aspiration, 1 In ouehand he had the gospel and in the | other the constitution of human rights and | liberty. He instilled in the hearts of au’ Irishmen the love of equality and liberty. There is a certain fitness in celebrating St. | Patrick’s day in this country.

The afternoon exercises attending the | celebration of 8t. Patrick’s day at Wood- ward’s Pavilion will begin promptly at 2 o'clock. There will be a second celebra- tion in the evening commencing at 8 o’clock. Irish music will be rendered con- | tinuously during the afternoon and even- | ing. The celebrations promise to exceed all previous efforts of the kind. ‘Among the other celebrations announced | to take place this evening are the follow- h of ing: '%he twenty-seventh annual ball of the | Knights of the Red Branch will be given in Odd Fellows’ Hall. The Young Ladies’ Sodality of St. James’ parish will give an entertainment in Mis- sion Parlor Hall on Seventeenth street. A rally and entertainment will be given by Company M, League of the Cross cadets, in St. Francis Hall. Tne Kmghts of St. Patrick will banquet at Delmonico’s. e STUDENTS CELEBRATE. ‘\ Entertalnment at Sacred Heart College in Honor of the Festival. The class of 1896 of Sacred Heart College celebrated the festival of St. Patrick last night in the large ball of the college at Eddy and Larkin streets. The hall was densely crowded with friends of the boys, and it was quite evident that everybody present enjoyed the programme im- mensely. In honor of the day green bunt- ing was elaborately displaved, with Irish flags forming bannerets round the walls and upon the stage, and with the green was liverally woven America’s emblem, which was draped from the stage wings as a background. g The entertainment began with an over- ture of Irish nattonal airs by the Sacred Heart College orchestra under the direc- tion of Brother Hosea. after which the fol- lowing programme was presented in a manner_that reflected great credit upon the partieipants and thafr teachers: lmrodnctor{ address by the president of the day, Thomas M.

Important Meeting of the Fifth Con- gressional District Committee This Morning. The stairs leading to the Republican headquarters creaked all day yesterday beneath the feet of hundreds of active, enthusiastic Republicans on their way to meet political friends and discuss with them the coming victory of protection for California. Among the tarong was & raisin-grower from the San Joaquin Valley. He said that he had always been a Demo- crat while working for others, but that he found Democracy a heavy burden to bear as soon as he became the possessor of twenty acres of raisin vines. “My party has refused to give me the advantage of a cent or two a pound in the way of protection from the fierce competi- tion of my Spanish rival, who can hire labor for 10 cents a day. My rival the other day trampled upon the stars and stripes, while I am ready to die in defense of that flag. But the Democratic party buys its raisins from the Spaniard and tells me that I onght to starve myself and my family for principle. That’s why I am a Republican to-day. I have found, after bitter experience with the Democracy, that the Republican party is the friend of the poor man.” The Fropositlon that California is going Republican this year from the top to the bottom of the ticket has gone beyond the ale of surmise or argument. Itis a po- itical axiom. The great activity locall in the Republican ranks is a striking evi- dence of this fact. Around the Baldwin Hotel last night Ssnator Mahoney represented the two votes, the two forgzed proxies and the one genuine proxy that represent the Ma- honey-Kelly ‘acrobatic troupe of the Fourth Congressional District. But when John L. Sullivan sallied forth on his way to the theater the Senator and the ghosts of his proxies retired behind a very large sized eclipse. Two rather queer political combinations were noted in_the billiard-room. At one table Blinker Murphy and _Speaker Lynch of the Assembly were engaged in a friendly game of billiards. Mr. Lynch wore a shamrock on_his left lapel out of compli- ment to St. Patrick’s day this morning, while Blinker relied uvon his open conn- bEexgsnce for recognition as a true son of rin. At another table were ex-Judge Tread- well and Police Judge Campbell, knocking spots out of the balls and stabbing great gashes in the green cloth at every masse shot. They displayed no shamrocks. Judge Treadwell wore a new plug hat and Judge Campbell wore his whiskers. The meeting of the Fifth Congressional Committee, which will take place at 11 o’clock this morning in the Crocker build- ing, is expected to_prove of more than or- dinary interest. Nothing was given out last night as to what was to be done for the reason that no plan of action will be decided upon until the committee meet. B —. For Kicking a Woman. Charles Newland, keeper of a sailors’lodging- house, 106 Sieuart street, was arrested last night on the charge of battery. Maggie Ander- son, a well-known character on the water frout, alleged that Newland kicked her on the abdomen and seriously injured her. She was taken to the Receilying Hospital. Newland de- nied the cherge. Maggie had been rooming in his place for three or four days, but how she was injured he did not know. 5 !THE STHI (E 15 STILL OO No Great Change in the Situa- tion With the Union Painters. ARE CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS. The Master Painters Slow in Making an Answer—Other Labor Organizations. The painters’ strike is still on and will be until the Master Painters’ Association givein to the terms of the strikers. It was expected that the bosses would meet last night and decide upon some course, but from all that can be learned the meet- ing was postponed until to-night. The master painters are very secretive as to what they are contemplating or what ac- tion they will take. At any rate, the strikers are confident of winning the fight. The majority of the union painters are at work for the bosses who have agreed to all terms. Thus the pressure of the strike has been greatly re- lieved and the men are not as restless as they usually are under such circumstances. Cnomngraag COMMITTEE REPORTS. Many Men and Shops Discussed at the Afternoon Meeting. The regular open meeting of the striking painters was held yesterday at 115 Turk street, President Rose presiding. Most of the session passed in listening to reports. One of the relief committee stated that he kad received wora tbat the next steamer from Portland, Or., will bring down a number of painters to take the places of the strikers. the country in the belief that they will se- cure a living from the relief committee of the strikers upon the threat of going to work on the struck jobs. It will hardly be safe for them to be caught by the strikers. A report was made that five of St. Denis’ painters working at Menlo Park had de- clined to return to work yesterday morn- ing. The report was verified by one of those who quit, who said that it. will tie up the Menlo job. F. M. Ambrose of 1624 Powell street sent a letter stating that he will recognize the card system and employ only union men. Frank of 1002 Pacific street sent a similar letter. A letter frem the San Francisco Trades Council stated : : 1 must say that the orderly and businesslike way in which you have conducted this strike meets with our hearty approval and is cer- tainly deserving of the commendation of all fair-minded persons. If, in any possible way, we can render you assisiance we are ready and willing to do ‘so. Trusting that victory may atteud your efforts, we are, gentiemen and brothers, iraternally yours. San Francisco Labor Council. Per E. P. BURMAN. The resolutions passed by the same body on Friday night were read. Danielson of the North Beach committee found that th:ere were eight non-union painters at work on Kuss’ job at the Pre- sidio. Got two men out. Several of the men came from Oakland and Alameda. On the way back we picked up four other non-union men. J. C. Sellers has given in. A. H. Herringer of Larkin street declines to give in to the demand and says he will not pay over $2. Hopps & Son of Pine street is regarded as a union shop because the peovle in the shop have all sent for applications for membership. The polishers’ committee reported that the two non-union polishers, William Henry and the man known as Russian Sam, are still at work in the Parrott build- ing. The committee recommended that the two men be blacklisted and black- balleg should they ever apply for admis- sion to membership. The men are at work for Kuss of Sutter street. There is a polisher from Oakland at work for Kuss in the Parrott building. A motion was made that the union put up a blacklist of all jourceymen who have persisied and .still decline to unite with the union. Mclvor opposed giving such men any prominence at the present stage of the game. It was decided not to make a public blacklist as it would only give those men a value, as their_services would be sought by the bosses who are enemies of the union. Several matters of minor importance were discussed before the meeting ad- journed. PR PAINTSHOP RULES. The Union Discusses Apprentices, Foremen, Laborers and Other Matters, The hall at 115 Turk street was crowded last evening at the regular meeting of the | Painters’ and Decorators’ Union. Nearly 200 new members were initiated, and this leaves less than 200 non-union painters in the City. As the Master Painters’ Associ- ation had sent no reply to the strikers the matter of the present difficulty wss not discussed at length. Considerable time was given, however, to the formation of the new shop rules. It was decided to allow one apprentice to ten men in each shop, each apprentice to serve at least three years and receive journey- man’s wages upon attainmf his majority. One non-union foreman will be allowed to each shop if desired. Laborers may be employed in the shops at laborers’ wages, but :o laborer shall perform journeyman’s work. Another open meeting will be held at 3 o’clock to-day. —————— THE NEW WORKING-CARD. Union Carpenters Declde to Stand to Thelr Colors or Perish. The Building Trades’ Council’s working- card system will gointo effect on April 1, and on that day small slips of cardboard will be issued to nearly 40,000 workmen in this City. Under this system no union workman will be permitted to work on a job with a non-union man. Should a building contractor attempt to force a non-union man upon a job the union men will be compelled to quit and tie up the job at once. & That this may be productive of serious consequences and possibly result in another strike goes without saying. This subject and its possibilities was seriously discussed ‘last evening at the meeting of Carpenters’ and Joiners’ unions 483 and 304. The debates lasted until a late hour, but all the carpenters decided to a man to stand by the working-card system, come what may, even though every Fkiece of work 1n the City is tied up in a strike, Sicdhoi s rt OAKLAND MEN WAITING. If the San Francisco Painters Win They Too Will Strike. The union painters and decorators of Oakland, and in fact Alameda County, are watching the painters’ strike in San Fran- cisco with the keenest interest. One of the union members stated yesterday that ifthe San Francisco painters win their fight the Alameda County painters will make similar demands upon the master painters across the bay. They will de- mand $3 for eight hours’ work and a rec- ognition of the union and the working- card system. The painter said: ‘We would have been into this fight before, Many of this class came from | but we were not in & position to give the bosses a battle, and will not be until the San Francisco painters’ fight is won. The reasons dre these: Our Alameda County unions are all small organizations compared to those in San Francisco. If we get into a strike with our bosses and by any chance the San Fran- cisco painters should lose we would not have the ghost of a show to win, because our bosses woula fill our piaces from the-ranks of the de- feated. If, however, the big union wins, then we can go out on & strike because we know that no one will fill our places until we get ready to go back to work. Like the San Francisco painters, we have the building trades unions at our back, and they will go in with us for better treatment. We will il\'e to do a little preliminary organizing in Alameda and Berkeley, and either form painters’ unions in those two cities or get the painters to form brané¢h unions to the Oakland painters. Then we will' be ready for business. We are confident that the San Francisco boys will go in, and we have done all in our power o keep the Oakland painters from tuking jobs under San Francisco bosses. When their vie. tory is won we too will line up and compel our bosses to_give us better pay, shorter hours and treat us fairly as union men., ——— COOKS AND WAITERS Form a Unlon, Taking in All Hotel and Restaurant Employes. The Fraternity of Hotel and Restaurant Employes organized last evening at 1159 Mission street. In reality thisis the new Cooks’ and Waiters’ Union, but it was de- ¢ided not to draw the lines in the new fra- ternity, but to receive upon an equal foot- ing the dishwashers, pantrymen, porters, bellboys, clerks, stewards and all. It was argued that one of the reasons for the other Cooks’ and Waiters’ uunions failing was because none but actual cooks and waiters were admitted. Under such cir- cumstances it frequently happened that in the case of trouble with the employers the strikers’ places were hlled from the pantry force, the elevator boys, and even the dishwashers’ department. At the meeting last night thirty-six men were in attendance. Thomas Beresford was selected as chairman and Leon Brown secretary. The chairman called attention to the fact that individual unions cannot succeed by themselves. The experiment has been tried too often and proved to be a fail- ure. Now is the time, he said, for an- other effort, based upon diiferent prin- ciples. There 1s now a general labor movement alive in the land, and those who earn their living in hotels and res- taurants should be in it. By affiliating with the central body of labor unions their rights can be preserved, for they will have the support of all branches of trade. J. H. Lukschwitz of Sydney, Australia, told of the strength of the union in that city, and said that the fraternity there is not only a strong organization, but it has its own employment bureau and club- house. It was decided to meet again in the same hall on the 24th i e A NEW TRADES UNION. Itallan, French and Spanish Car- penters to Organize Thurs- day Night. On Thursaay evening one of the strongest labor unions in the City will be organized in Apollo Hall, on Pacific street, and its strength and support will be immediately lent to the Building and Trades Council. The new union will be the Italian, French and Spanish branch of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, and it is expected that the union will start off 200 strong. In the four carpenters’ unions of this City there are a number of members of foreign birth. The proposition to form them and their brothers in the trade into a union was made several months ago and its advocates have been increasing steadily ever since. pal leaders in the move- s0, a contractor. The work of organization will be done by C. F. Schadt, the business agent of the car- Eenters‘ unions, District Organizer Mals- ary being absent in the country this week. After organizing the new union will immediately send its delegates to the Building Trades Council. The majority of those who will be members have never limen connected with any labor union be- ore. od e ‘The Plasterers’ Unlon. At the regular meeting of the Plaster- ers’ Union last evening the strike of the | painters was indorsed and all the support that the union was able to give was prom- 1sed. Messrs. Bailey and Handley were | appointed as delegates to the Buildin, Trades’ Council vice Messrs. Finger an Murray, who are going to the country. Several physicians and druggists offered their services and medicines to the members of the union at greatly reduced rates. The offers were accepted. Several similar propositions are still under consid- eration. LRSS AT The Lathers’ Cases. To-day the cases of the three striking lathers who were arrested for assaulitng young Trade snd his companions on Post street and old man Mohr on Fourth street will come up in Police Judge Low’s court. The following card . has been issued to all members of the Lathers’ Union: All union lathers who have nothing else to do are requested to lend their presence at Judge Low’s court to-morrow morning, as three lathers will be examined on charges of assault to murder. C. J. GREENWALT, Secretary Lathers’ Union. J. D. REDDING IN TOWN. The Man Who Did Not Break the Bank at Monte Carlo. Joseph D. Redding of New York was an unexpected but welcome guest at the Bo- hemian Club last evening. He came on ihe train arriving at 9 p. M., and was cor- dially greeted by many oldtime friend: Mr. Redding formerly resided in Califor- nia and practiced law in San Francisco. Infact he is a Native Son of the Golden ‘West, as he was born in Sacramento hefore the flood. Mr. Redding recently returned to Amer- ica after a_prolonged journey throughout Europe. e visited Colonel Alex G. Hawes in London, Georfie Hall in Paris and Neally Sullivan in Italy, The story that Mr. Redding compared his own sys- tem of play at Monte Carlo with the bank system, and acknowledged that the system of the bank was the better, is discredited by the traveler himself. He says he visited the famous gambling resort, but that the players stood ten deep at the tables, so that it was almost impos- sible for one to get an opportunity to play. Many of the visitors were Americans, who seemed to have vlenty of money to spend. As for himself he did manage, by reaching over the heads of others, to place a louis, which won, and George Hall recovered the winning. In London Mr. Redding and Colonel Hawes dined at the Suvage Club and sev- eral bohemian resorts. George Hall, the Turkish Consul in San Francisco, was last seen in the south of France, where wines gl rare vintage were engaging his atten- ion. Mr. Redding will remain in San Fran- cisco for three weeks, and perhaps partici- pate in the inaugural ceremonies of the next president of the Bohemian Club and the next?reaidant of the San Francisco Art Association. Incidentally Mr. Redding has filled both positions, and ought to know a good suc- cessqr when he sees one in action, ————— . #The Call’s’ Auctlon List.

The Board of Fealth and those Supervi- sors wha are opposed to allowing the hog ranches in the Bay View district remain- ing in their present location scored a victory at the meeting of the board yester- day when the report of the Health and Police Committee, recommending . that action in the matter be suspended for six months, was rejected. The residents of Bay View began agitat- ing the removal of the offensive hogpens and inclosures several weeks ago, and en- listed the aid of the Board of Health when health inspectors had visited the section and reported that the ranches were a menace to the public health from their lack of cleanliness and the overpowering odors that arose from them. Then a petition, indorsed by the Board of Health, was sent to the Board of Super- visors, asking tbat the ranchers be com- pelled to remove to other localities where their animals would not be in such proximity to human habitations, and the petition was referred to the Health and Police Committee. Both sides were heard by the committee, the ranchers being represented by two at- torneys, who argued that experience had shown that the ranches were not detri- mental to the health of those living in the neighborhood where they are located, and that it would be a great hardship to com- pel them to move to remote districts where they would be compelled to send their hogs long distances to the market. Supervisors King, Dunker and Morgan- stern of the committee were in favor of postponing action on the matter for at least six months, while Supervisors Di- mond and Benjamin thought that the matter was of grave import and that the wishes of the property-owners, hundreds of whom signed the petition, should be re- spected anf!he ranches ordered removed to other localities. The majority pre- vailed, and the recommendation of the :pmmiuce was for a postponement of ac- ion. ‘When the matter came up vesterday Su- pervisor Taylor moved that the report be rejected onthe ground that the reports of the Health Department had clearly shown the ranches to be a nuisance and that the board should not put itself on record as hindering the progress of such a promising section as Bay View. The motion was adopted after it had been amended to pro- vide that the Mayor shall appoint a com- mittee of three Supervisors to visit Bay Vies and_ personally inspect the ranches, with a_view to guiding the board in its future deliberations on the subject. The report of the joint Street and Judi- ciary Committee, recommending that the City Surveyor be authorized to survey and establish grades in the section south of Golden Gate Park, was approved by the board by a vote of eleven, Supervisor Tay- lor asking to be excused.
