The first man to be sent in quest of an airship was Jake Weinberg. He made several trips, reporting ‘‘nothing doing” | upon their completion. He was followed by Dave Stampa, who, with bills in one hand and change in another, came down { thoroughly satisfled that a business on |terra firma was more to his liking. | Stampa reported upon his arrival that | telephonic communication between the | planets was established, he having hit the wires. | Following Stampa came “Mo” Davis and M.

The questions dis- | cussed were in regard to the attitude of | Harris, and then how far any retaliation | hould be prosecuted. The committee will report to the federation to-morrow night and then the matter will probably bo | settled. The visit of the Polishers and Varnisii- ers’ committee was prompted by the | | decision of the Labor Council not to tas: any action in the boycot until a definice 1 | | ! | | | how far the council will go in any In- | | dorsement it may give, even should it de- | cide to mix in the matter. | “'The following communication has been | presented for publication by Theodore F. | Bonnet, secretary of the Baseball | League, in which he sets forth the atti- | tude of the league: To the Editor of The Call: the labor organizations of San Francisco toward the California Baseball League has | been so_persistently misrepresented by Civil | Scrvice Commissioner P. H. McCartby that 1 feel that laboring men and the public in gen- | | eral should be vouchsafed a statement of the facts. The directors of the California League were first informed of the threatened boycott | on ompabout March 1, when Henry Harris, ori | The attitude of | | the firm of Henry Harris & Co., cigar dealers, sent me a letter which he had received from the Building Trades Council infcrming him that as he had patronized the L. & E. Eman- uel Company in fitting up his private place of business his cigar store or any place of amuse- | ment in which he was_interested would be | subjected 1o a boycott. Upon inquiry I learned that the eontrcct for fitting up his store was | awarded on or about January 23 by his part- | Ted Goodman, the active manager of his siness, who has no interest in the California aseball League; that he (Goodman) was noti- | fied of the unfair_character of the Emanuel Company early in February, and that he then ed decp regret at having patronized a nion concern. As Mr. Harris has not more than a one-twelfth interest in the league I felt that when informed of the facts Mr. cCarthy would see the injustice of the pro posed boycott, and that the Bullding Trades Council would be content to attack the cigar iness. 1 was mistaken. 1 found that the | Service Commissioner was eager to pun- y thet had the remotest connec- Harris in a business way, with xception perhaps of the Market Street | Railway Compa n which Mr. Harris owns | stock, but which, Mr. McCarthy acknowledges 0 me, was too powerful to attack. He told me | that my only redress was to retire from busi- s or to drive Mr. Harris out, a task which, I pointed out, was beyond my power. { Would Cust Harris. This conversation took place in the Mayor's {office in the presence of C. W. Fay, the Mayor's secretary, who suggested that Mr. Harris might settle the difficuity by selling %iis stock, but Mr. McCarthy declared that such a sale would be viewed with suspicion. ‘Throughout. the conversation his manner and words were those of a man who was in a position to wield an arbitrary and tyrannical power, and who purposed doing it. Meanwhile ‘the Varnishers' and Polishers' Union, which is a member of the Builiding Trades Council, requested through its dele- gate that the executive committee of the Labor Council declare the San Francisco base- ball team (not the league) unfair and that, by the wa is quite different from asking for a boycott. The executive comemittee investigated the matter and while it was pending I was assured by members of the committee that they regarded the action of the Building Trades Council as unjust: At the last meeting of the executive commit- tee of the Labor Council it was decided to take no action in the matter pending a more definite request from the Varnishers' and Polishers’ Union and at a meeting of the whole council Friday night the qgport of the executive com- | next contractor, e e a scramble. Stock dropped $60 as a tip to the wielders of the blanket in the hope that the three twenties would cause a discontinuance of the war against col- lectors. The twenties were recelved gladly, but the hoisting apparatus con- tinued'at work. By this time the soldiers had become so imbued with their scheme of ‘“elevating mankind” that they lost their powers of distinguishing between collectors and professional gentlemen. As a result the next passengers on the “air line” were Drs. Emory and Cohen, who had dental parlors in the neighborhood of the Presidio. The soldiers by this {ime became satis- fled that they had done enough ‘up-lift- ing” for onme day, but it is doubtful if THE ¢ SOLDIER. Uiy S22 ERR \5‘ MERCHANTS A'ToSS For m%lQPHONEY «.

These facts appear in the records and may be easily verified. Yet when they were published Mr. McCarthy, Who says that he wants mo assistance from’ the Labor Council, made strenuous efforts to have a joint meeting of the representatives of both the Bullding Trades and Labor Councils for the purpose of securing a denfal. And to this end his agents resorted to underhand work, which has been denounced In bitter terms by members of the Labor Council, whom he tried to in- veigle into his trap. 'He caused notices of a meeting to be sent out without authority from the Labor Council, yet there were only two representatives of the Labor Council present, and to-day I am told they regret their partici- pation. After securing a certified copy of the minutes he incorporated it in a letter to the press and inserted this statement, which is ac- knowledged by the Labor Council to be false and unfair: “Every good union man in San Francisco and In the State, no matter what his affiliations may be. will do his duty by it (the Bullding Tredes boveott) until Mr. Harris s out of the baseball business.”” The misleading character of that statement is evident from the fact that the minutes of the Labor Council, the only federation of or- ganized labor in this city, has decided to take 1o action pending a more definite request from the Varnishers' and Polishers’ Union. The Friend of Labor. s 1 think it must be apparent v honest citizen that Mr. McCarthy has been guilty of conduct unworthy a member of a commission which is charged with the duty of conscientiously putting into effect the civil service laws of this citv.

Behind the Metal Polishers, who have struck work because their employers de- clined to accede to the demand for an eight-hour day, stands the Buffers', Platers’ and Brass Workers' union.

It Involved the Bxpenditure of a For- tune Forsooth. The impression that has gone abroad through- out our country that one of the greatest in- dustries of the past decade was on the de- cline is a mistaken one. During the exceed- mgly dull times from 1892 to 159 there was mo industry tiat gave employment to such an army of first-class mechanics and tool makers as did the bicycle business. It possibiy reached its zenith in 1895, at which time the prices for high grade bicycles began to decline very rap- idly, until now instead of $150 being the price of a high grade bicycle one-third of that buys the best there is on the market. It is safe to say that had it not been for pneumatic. tires the bieycle would never have come into general use. This was the one invention that made it popular aimost {rom the start. About four years ago another invention was brought out that has proven the second great est invention ever added to this popular device. It was not like the pneumatic tires, however, in one respect, in that the trade wanted it at sight. but it required months and years of patient, persistent work to convince the public that it was what the manufacturers and inventors claimed for it. The device is known now as the Morrow Coaster and Brake. At present the factory (a very large one) is be- ing operated day and night, and has been for the past year. It has now a capacity of moye than one thousand brakes per day, which are going to_cyclists in all parts of the civilized world. The advantage of this well known device fs that a cyclist always has his or her mount under control, and when going down a siight incline or hill ‘the feet can rest per- fectly still on the pedals, and in case the speed is too much accelerated, a slight back- ward pressure of either pedal will set the brake automatically.—Ithaca Daily Journal. ————— LECTURE ON ART.—The curator of the Mark Hopklns Institute of Art lectured yes- terday at Mills College on the ‘‘Relation of Art to the Higher Life.” they would have stopped if the particular kind of “mankind” they worked on had not given out.. The merchants lost $7000 as a result of the “blanket work.” Quite a number of bills were collected at the raflroad ticket office when the men went to secure their tickets. but the majority of the men ot the Thirtieth succeeded in getting their civilian outfits free of cost. Numerous warrants have been issued and those men of the regiment owing bills who did not succeed in_ getting out ot town last night will" be arrested this morning. Olympic Handball. The Olympia "Club double handball tournament was continued last night. Bowman and Curley, in an exciting and extremely close game, beat Duffy and Hewson 51—49. W. defeated Wagner and Crable 5147, latter team having a handicap of 20. Gleason and Loule Levy, Powers and Green and Mallon and Tait forfeited and were each penalized a game. St @ FORWARD MARCH - (OF CALIFORNIA the | to State Board of Trade. A panoramic view of certain industries of California is afforded by the eleventh annual report of President N. P. Chip- man of the State Board of Trade, which | was submitted to the board yesterday. | The document is voluminous, embracing tables that fairly bristle with statistics derived from various officlal and semi- official sources. There are no statistics of Lhome consumption, for these were 1ot available. “The purpose,” said General Chipman, “rather is to show the growth and pro- gress of certain branches of our agricul- tural industries as bringing wealth to the State from without its borders and as a direct reinforcement of our capital en~ gaged in these pursuits.” These comparative facts stand out prominently from the body of the report: In ten years the shipments per annum to the East of fruits, wines, brandy and vegetables have increased 50,602 carloads, the total last year being 66,797 carloads. Reckoning the ten-ton cars on which the estimates are based and allowing only thirty feet to a car, it is seen that it would take a train over 79 miles long, or about the distance from Sacramento to the head of the San Joaquin Valley to carry these products alone. embracing the orchard, vineyard and gar- den, bring in more than three times as much money from without the State than of cereals. Still, the output of cereals has not been reduced materially, nor has the production of wool. The mines reach the annual output of more than $30,000,000. The lumberman has found that the home market for packing boxes is worth more to him than his entire export trade. In short, source of wealth to the State without in- terfering with any other industry. Northern California last year shipped 80.799 carloads of green deciduous fruits, while Southern Callfornta shipped only nineteen carloads. On the other hand, Southern California fornia sent out only 827 carloads. “There went from the north,” reports General Chipman, “84%0 carloads of dried fruits and from Southern California 369; of raisins there went from the north 3421 carloads and from the south 161; of canned fruits from the north 4568 carloads and from the south 492. To the shipments from the north should be added those by sea from San Francisco, amounting to 3284 carloads. The magnitude of the cit- Tus industry in the south will be appre- ciated when it is observed that it amounts to nearly as many carloads as the nortn sends out of green deciduous fruits, dried fruits and rai-ins combined.” The vegetaole industry of the north sur- passed_that of the south last year, 2737 carloads going from the north and 2053 from the south. The north shipped SIS7 carloads of wines and brandy to 176 from the south. /It will be seen.” says Gen- eral Chipman, “that. as except the citrus fruits, the orchards and vineyards of Cali- fornia are in the north and that nearly all tlhe oranges and lemons are in the south.” The shipments of green deciduous fruits fell off 576 carloads in 1900, while citrus fruit shipments gained 9462 carloads; drieq fruits gained 312 carloads; canned fruits, 31 carloads; vesetables, ' 1736 carlcads: wines and brandy 333 carloads, and raising § carloads. There was a net gain all around of 11315 carloads, cf which nearly 9000 were citrus fruits. Many pages were devoted to miscellan- eous interesting facts. Attention was called_by_General Chipman to the faet that the dairy output was worth $5,000,000 more than all the wheat and flour ex- ported last year. It is not possible to Cxaggerate the importance of the beet | sugar industry to the State. General Chip- man says. Of the*163.458,075 pounds of sugar produced in the United States last vear 8.741,713 pounds were credited to California. . Salesmen Have Their Eenlngn.

The President has not fully made up his mind to accept or decline club cour- tesies in San Francisco. Senator Per- kins yesterday received a telegram from ‘Washington relating to the Union League Club’s special Invitation to the President, but the message did not signify positive acceptance. When the President first slanced over the list of city clubs, em- bracing the Pacific-Union, Bohemian, University, Press, San Francisco, Union Ieague and Cosmos, he indicated that the accedtance of an invitation to one club would imply an obligation to accept the courtesies of other club institutions, and he was then of the opinion that his engagements would not allow him time to visit all the clubs of San Francisco. Since then he has been urgently re- quested to accord one evening to the Unlon League and he may be constrained to cancel some listed engagement and accept the courtesies of the League. The executive committee of citizens ap- pointed to provide measures for the re- ception and entertainment of the Presi- dent in San Francisco held a session yes- terday and approved the following ad- dresses: To the Citizens of San Francisco—Gentle- men: The approaching visit of the President of the United States is a notable event of ex- ceptional importance to the present and future of San Francisco.

Not only will it be our privilege as Cali- fornians to show the most liberal hospitality to our distinguished guests, but it will be our duty as citizens of the republic to honor in the most fitting manner the chief executive of the nation. A cltizens’ committee has been entrusted with the task of providing a suita- ble public reception ahd a finance committee has 'been organized to raise the necessary funds. It 15 estimated that $25,000 will | be necessary to defray the expenses of a cred- | itable reception. T “asking. vour liberal subscription to thi fund the committee calls attention to the fact that the present exceptional prosperity of San Francisco is greatly owing to the large funds expended in this State during the past two years by the national Government, and fur- ther calls attention to, the many benefits that will accrue to this city from this notable event. A fitting and hospitable reception to our noted guests will not only add valued Drestige to our city and State, but Wil also gain needful friends for California in the na- tional halls of legislation.
