28 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1896. T0 RAISE THE PRICE OF BREAD Master Bakers' Association Determines Upon an Unpopular Move. Will Not Permit Dealers to Sell a Loaf for Less Than Five Cents. COMMISSIONS REDUCED ALSO. The Custom of Permitting the Return of Unsold Loaves to Discontinue Under the Same Order. The master bakers of the City are mak- ing an effort to raise the price of hread, basing it upon the recent rise in the price | of flour. Those having the movement in charge, however, claim that to raise the price of bread is not as easily done s to plan it. 1f the protest being raised by their cus- | tomers, the ‘branch stores’’ and grocers counts for anything they are quite right | about it A general meeting of the master bakers of the City was held on Thursday, under the auspices of the Master Bakers’ Protec- tive Association of San Francisco and Alameds counties, at which resolutions were adopted declaring that no bread be eold for less than 5 cents per loaf; that the weight of a 5-cent loaf should not be more than 18 ounces when baked and that no baker shall sell bread to any dealer who shall sell it at less than this price. The resotution also provides thatno bread shall be returned to the dealers and that the commission to dealers shall be limited o0 25 per cent. This means a very material increase in“ the price of bread to dealers and to the consumer zlike. Two loaves of bread may be purchased from many of the-dealers and bakers for five cents, and dealers are protesting loudly. As yet theincreased price has not in any instance gone into eff ct and the public therefore has not been heard from. Nicholas Prost s president of the Master Bakers’ Protective Association.

The buslest Curtain Department of the matter yesterday afternoon he said: in town. *The price of bread is too low in view of ey the high price of flour. Besides there is A f e e o B R L SR such competition among the bakers that they are cutting each uther’s throats and | bringing ruin to many of them. A grea: many bakers failed this year, and a good many more will do so unless the trade 13 regulated in some way. For instance, many bakers in their eagerness for trade give overweight bread, as much as twenty- two ounces to a 5-cent loaf, and then give 50 per cent commissions to the dealers. ““This, together with the custon of tak- ing back the bread from the dealer that is unsold, leaves very little profit to the baker. Many of the dealers take a great deal mcre bread than they sell justto| make an appearance in their window. 1f we tell them they cannot have so much, they reply by saying they will find a | baker who will let them have what they want. We have to bring the stale bread back to the shop and sell it at a reduced | * price and to ourloss. Many of the dealers sell at a less price than 5 cents a loaf, and 8o we have fixed the price at 5 cents and dealers are not allowed to sell under that price. Off that price they can do well enough at 25 per cent commission. ‘‘However,” continued President Prost, “Iam not certain that the thing may be made to work. There are only ninety members in the association, while there are about 190 bakers in the City. Unless they all signed the agreement and abided by it we could not enforce it upon any. There has been an awful fuss made already atout the proposed increase in price and reduction in commissions. The dealers charze us with being sanother monopoly, another Southern Pacific corporation, wanting all the profits and denying to others the right to live, So 1 am not sure we will be able to make it go.” Frank Siebrecht of Engelhardt’s bakery on Kearny street, who does a big ‘‘wagon’’ business, said yesterday.that he bad left the association on account of this action. He said he did not propose to be governed by it; that he regulated the price and the size of his loaves according to the price of flour and would not submit to the dictation of the association. Following are the resolutions as passed: WHEREAS, The bakery business at the present time is in a very unsatisfactory condition; and whereas, the modern requirements of ali bakers are to-day very much eniarged and not at ali in conformity with the price of the manufactured article; and whereas, the price of flour has advanced 35 per cent and 1s likely 1o go still higher by reason of the advance of wheat, be it Resolved, That the price and weight of bread be uniform throughout the City; that the ractice of taking back stale bread be abol- shed; that all goods ordered and delivered shall be charged and collected as per schedule price, to be fixed as above stated; that unaer no circumstances any manufactured article be taken back or exchangea; that no bread be €0ld for less than 5 cents per loafat retail; that we allow all branches, grocers, restau- rauts, hotels and all dealers ‘in breadstuffs 25 per cent on all saies, provided their obliga- tions are met promptly; that the weight of & S-cent loaf of bread should not be more than eighteen ounces when baked and this shall be the standard; the pricejof loaves of larger size sball be in proportion to their weight as com- ared with the weight of a 5-cent loaf; that no aker shell sell bread to any dealer who shall sell it at less than the price established by the association as the retail price. That it is the sense of this meeting that the Master Bakers’ Association be urged . to get every baker of this City 10 sign the above reso- lution. The above provision shall go into effect and be binding upon the assent of the majority of the master bakers of San Francisco, given under theirsignatures hereto and ratified by a fencrnl meeting of the master bakers of San ‘rancisco to be held hereafter. We, the under- sigied, master bakers of the City and County of San Francisco, hereby agree to earry out the provisions contained in the foregoing reso- lutions of the Master Rakers' meeting, and we do turther agree that in case it should be de- cided upon to be expedient, we shali enter into a bond or give other satis'actory securities for the faithful performance by us of the condi- tions of the loregoing resolutions.

Capelle, who committed suicide by shooting him- self through the head at the Cliff House, on October 28. A verdict of suicide was returned by the jury. Only two witnesses were examined, C. E. Bendixen, who was with the suicide on the fatal evening, and Robert Capelle, brother of the deceased. Bendixen de- scribed how he went to the Cliff House with the deceased. Capelle was_ well, he said, but acted queerly and passed strange remarks. Robert Capelle swore that his brother had been sick for a long time, and that he took his own life while tem porarily insane. In the case of Daniel Johnson, a verdict of accident was returned. It was de- veloped at the inquest that the deceased had been suffering from luni trouble for some time, and without the knowledge of his family had been using morphine.

RTINSO EATROAUO ARG AR ROAROGA AU AGhAGAA AT AT AT BT ATBOAAM AT PORTLAND RATES 10 BE ADVANCED Harmony Between the War- ring Carriers to Be Restored. One of the Objects of President McNeill’s Visit to This City. ALL LINES NOW HEAVY LOSERS A Rate War That Has Been Main- tained for More Than Three Years, E. McNeill, who by reason of his skillful management of the property of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company while be was receiver of that corporstion was elected to be president and general .manager of the reorganized company, is in the City for the purpose of adjusting the differences between his company and the Bouthern Pacific Company, and also those that have existed with the North Pacific Steamship Company. Should he succeed in bringing about a harmonious arrangement thers would be an imme- diate restoration of freight rates between San Francisco and Portland. For three or four years the war between the Oregon Railway and Navigation Com- pany and the Southern Pacific Company in the first instance and that between the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company and North Pacific Steamship Company later resulted in rates being cut to such an extent that every carrier operating be- tween hereand Portland has been losing heavily. All interests involved are now heartily sick of the fight, and in a mood, it is believed, to make concessions to bring about peace. After the North Pacific Steamship Com- pany, whose steamers also touch at Coos and Humboldt bays, began to cut rates to Portland the Oregon Railway and Navi- gation Company put on a special steamer, the Arcata, 10 cut into the way business of its rivs It is understood that one of the out- comes of peace will be the withdrawal of the Arcata from the Coos and Humboldt Bay route, in consideration of the North Pacific Steamship Company agreeing to maintain rates to Portland at such figures as may be agreed upon. . Daring the height of the rate war freight in some instances was taken by the water carriers for as low as 25 cents a ton, and owing to the low rates prevailing over the water lines the Southern fic, for some time past, has virtually been out of the {rei{;l:m business between here and Port- and. While rates will be considerably sd- vanced as soon as the terms of peace bave been agreed npon and ratified, they will, it is stated, be kept at so low a figure as not to invite outside competition. e The People’s Church.

Edward Erickson Tells a Story as to Why He Robbed Uncle Sam’s Mail Box. Edward Erickzon, a self-confessed mem- ber of the Weary Willie gany, occupies a cell at the County Jail. He is charged by the local postal authorities with robbing a mail box, though the Government has no evidence to convict further than the man’s own testimony. In fact Erickson has such a hard-lnck story to tell thatif he isfinally given a lodging place in 8an Quentin, it may be largely attributed to a sentimental feeling on the part of the jury. It appears that Erickson is a hard working Bwede who left his native land some four years ago, impressed with the idea that American coin could be almost had for the asking. Arriving in New York he found this kind of thing a mere delusion, and forthwith concluded to seek his fortune on the Pacific Slope. As he journeyed westward matters financial seemed to become more contracted, until finaily the enthusiastic Swede developed into an humble member of the “Weary Willie” gang. In San Francisco Erickson found things no better than in the East or Middle West. He followed the old drag of beg- ging alung the streets and ttlen mate a house-to-house canvass of it. “When these Jeads had been gone over again and again,” hesaid in his statement before Commissioner Heacock, “I concluded there was nothing left for me but to break Jnto j; I had tried to secure work, but could never succeed. I asked a policeman _out in the Mission to lock me up, so that Irm'&ht get a square meal. “He refused to do anything of the kind, and I then adopted the most certain way I could think of to get a good meal. ‘I broke open a mailbox, but knew there was nothing in it, for the postman had just passed. . I was arrested, however, and for three days now I have had good square meals and a place -to rest. It is dreadful to be hungry, and I don’t care how long they give me.” Erickson was held to_answer before the United States District Court. He is sub- ject to a penalty of from ome to three years, and the Swede says he hopes he will get the limit, THE FAIR CASE. Contest of thie Famous Pencil Wil Set for Trial To-Morrow Morning. The contest of the pencil will of James G. ¥auir 1s set for trial to-morrow morning, and all’' the attorneys in the case have signified their willingness to proceed, ex- cept Delmas & Shortridge. They may ask for a continuance because of the ab- sence of Mrs. Theresa Oelrichs and Vir- Rll:nh Fair, who have been subpenaed by them. Judge Black yesterday decided that Charles L. Fair must sign his deposition, although it contains questions, he refused to answer. Attorneys Charles Wheeler and Russell Wilson will also have to tes- tify before a comumission, his Honor hoid- ing that the affidavits alleging that they possess information material to the case are all that the statutes require. —————— A Fraudulent Draft. J. L. Waller of Waller Bros., druggists, Geary street and Grantavenue, swore to a com- pluint in Judge Conlan’s court yesterday, charging A. W. Wilbanks with obtaining money by false pretenses. Last Tuesday Wi'- banks represented to the firm that he was an agent for the Chicago Label and Lithograph Box Company, and that they owed hin $150. He presented a draft for thatamount on the company and Waller Bros. advanced the smouni. The draft was sent to Chieago and Waller Bros. received a dispatch yesterday that Wilbanks was not in their employment BEATEN T0 DEATH BY BRUTAL BOYS Michael Lynch, a Laborer, Dies From His In- juries. He Was the Victim of an Un- provoked Attack Two Weeks Ago. ERYSIPELAS FINALLY SET IN. Martin Boyle, Accused of Bsing One of His Assailants, Is Charged With Murder. Michael Lynch, a laborer, who lived in the rear of 915 Battery street, died at the City and County Hospital Fridsy night. and yesterday a charge of murder was made against Martin Boyle at the City Prison. Lynch diea from the effects of a brutal assavlt committed upon him two weeks ago, and. Boyle, who is only 17 years of age, is ucoused of being one of his assail- ants, Bunday night two weeks ago Lynch, in an infoxicated condition, was being led home by a boy named Willie Smith. Whuile on Vallejo street, near Battery, Lynch was attacked by three boys. He was knocked down and kicked on the head, iegs and body. Two of the assail- ants ran_away, but Boyle remained and stabbed Lynch behind the ear with a pair of shears. The boy Smith notified Policeman Hen- neberry, who had Lynch removed to the Receiving Hospital, where Dr. Fitzgibbon dressed the wound bebind the ear. Lynch was taken to his home, but on the follow= ing Thursday he was again taken to the Receiving Hospital in an unconscious con- dition and Dr. Weil ordered his removal to the City and County Hospital, where it was found that his skull was fractured, his body was a mass of bruises and con- tusions and erysipelas had set in from the wound behind his ear. Boyle, who was employed in the stables of Gray Bros., was arrested by Policeman Henneberry on Thursday, Qctober 29. He is a hard-looking boy, and.according to the police bears a bad reputation on Vallejo street, where his parents reside. He denies knowing about the attack on Lynch, but the police say they have wit- nesses who will prove that he was the principal assailant. From what the police can gather the attack was entirely unprovoked. Lynch and the boy Smith” were walking quietly along the street when Boyle and the other boys pushed against Lynch. Then, with- out a word being said, Lynch was struck in the face and fell to the ground, when the three boys jumped upon him and beat and kicked him most unmercifully. Policeman Henneberry, who has been specially detailed on the case, has not yet been able to lay his hands upon Boyle’s two companions, but he expects soon to have them in custody. Lynch’s body was removed to the Morgue and an inquest will be held. NEW TO-DAY. BUCKINGHAM & HECHT'S Nova Scotia Seal Cork Sole Shoes.
