THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JULY 26 EXPRESS SENTIMENTS PREDICATING AN EARLY SETTLEMENT OF STRIKE Days of Labor Troubles May End Through Leaders’ Efforts to Bring About Conferences at Which Grievances May Be Discussed and Arrangements Made for Resumption of Long Interrupted Work Satisfactory to Each T last a conference has been ar- nged between the striking ma- and at least one firm of yers, the largest in the city. terested parties have been endeay to bring about a meeting and r efforts have evidently met with suc- day the Scotts will receive a delega- tion of ironworkers, headed by John Fitz- T , the oldest employe of the Unfon Iron Works, and the differences between the men who went out on May 20 and their employers will be considered. The Brotherhood of Teamsters has made some conciliatory propositions, and while the representatives of the Employ- ers’ Association seem firm, there is a will- ingness on both sides to bring the matter ation. Just wh orm the final proposition take has yet not been determined upon. 0 the San Francisco Labor Council, who is one of the shrewdest local labor movement, comes the follow- ing statement: We are trying to bring about a conference to avoid a disastrous in- | dustrial struggle. Up to the pres- ent we do not know what success we have achieved. In the interest of the success of this policy we cannot say any more at present. tary Rosenberg made this announce- shortly before the close of the meet- the Brotherhood of Teamsters held he Turk-street Temple.

At the conclusion of the meeting Mayor Phelan communicated with Attorney Michael F. Michaels, representing the ex- ecutive committee of the Employers’ As- sociation, and by him was informed that the position of the assoclation which he remresented was such that, while they were willing to treat with each individual employe, under no circumstances would they eonsider the dictation of any set of men banded together as a union. Later in the day, after consultation with the executive committee, Attorney Michaels made this statement: Mayor Phelan is trying to bring abowt a con- Employers’ Association ively, in consonance with its adopted at the inception of the t to have any direct dealing with In the discussions | presented many _propesitions | bor unionists, requesting a conie resented the of settlement | rom the Brotherhood of Teamsters, ey expressed a willingness to end | ‘These propositions have mot jdered by the Employers’ As- t action may be taken by as yet undetermined.

The striking machinists of the Union Iron Works will hold a conference to-day with the heads of the shipbuilding firm, due to tbe efforts of the conciliatory committee ap- | pointed by the Municipal League. The committee was in ses- sion yesterday afternoon, and after meeting the representa- tives of the strikers and the | Scotts a conference for to-day ‘was arranged.> | Five workmen have been || selected by the machinists to | meet the Scotts, the spokes- man being John Fitzpatrick, one of the oldest employes of the iron works. Hopes were | expressed last night that the strike will end as the result of the meeting between em- ployers and employes. The situation as far as the striking teamsters are con- cerned remains the same, with indications that the teamsters will make a settlement. | | [+ * policemen in their braid-covered uni- forms. Manager G. E. Hart stated that the firm expects to have eighteen more teams on duty to-day. In speaking of the strike and its effects on the business in- terests of the city Mr. Hart said: Bringing Men From the Country. *On Monday the situation was very dis- couraging, but every day since the aspect has materially brightened. We pay our men union wages and do not require them to work overtime. When I hire a man I expect that he will work for whom I may require. When our teamsters refused to do express work for the Morton Company I immediately told them that we would have tp secure men who would obey our orders. In my opinion the trouble has not greatly interfered with business in- terests.” As soon as Manager Hart learned that trouble was impending he took immediate steps to forestall it. Sunday he tele- graphed to the interior towns and ob- tained the promise of a supply of men. A number came from San Rafael. Al- of the city they have managed to get along very well under the direction of the police. These men will be retained in the service after the trouble is terminated. Yesterday morning W. W. Montague & Co.’s and Holbrook, Merrill & Stet- son’s teamsters of their own voli- tion resigned from the Brotherhood of Teamsters and returned to their former positions. In both cases they were to obey the mandates of the firm, instead of the union, were immediately ' put to work. This action, voluntarily taken on the part of the teamsters, was deemed by fhe mer- chants as the beginning of the end of the strike. In fact, it was definitely stated in many quarters that to-day would witness the desertion of a very large number of teamsters from the brotherhood. W. Wheeler, manager for Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson, in speaking of the re- turn of the men, said: “Five of our men of their own accord came in this morn- ing and requested that they be returned to work. I put the question to them, ‘Do you want to work for us or for the union? They replied that they were ready to work _for us and obey our orders. The firm feels no resentment toward (he men. Some of them have been in _our employ for fifteen years and they admitted that we always treated them with fairness and liberality. Only one did not return and he left with the best of feeling existing between himself and the firm. We have asked police protection for the teamsters and will assist them in every way.” Commission Men Suffer Loss. W. W. Montague & Co. were also de- lighted when four of their teamsters vol- untarily returned to work yesterday morning. The firm entertained no ill-will toward the men and they were simply asked if they preferred to take their or- ders from the firm or from the union. On replying that they were ready to obey the orders of the firm they were given their former positions. Only one teams- ter remained obstinate and stated that he wanted time to think the matter over. “A number of our men have volunteered to return to-their work,” said James Mc- Nab of McNab & Smith. “I did not ac- cept their offer at the time. but as soon as a larger number is ready I will put them to work. We feel no resentment to- ward the men who quit. There was no quarrel or dissatisfaction over wages, but only a disagreement among the men as to who they should work with. “I feel that we shall be completely suc- cessful. Of course, during the trouble | business has not progressed as smoothly {as formerly, but we have managed to get along. We have had the backing and | sympathy of aH our customers to such an extent that we could not possibly lose. Not one complaint was made because of | the delay in making deliveries. We had | too much behind us to lose. Men came to us from all points for employment. | Haa our customers not remained loyal to us in the exigency the result might have | been reversed.” Against the teamsters who deserted | them at this time the fruit and commis- sion merchants do not entertain a very | kindly feeling. Although innocent parties to the whole trouble, they have been by | far the heaviest losers. In fact, in a | number-of Instances their loss will not be | made up during this season. It consists not only in the fruit that was destroyed on the wharves but in that which was di- verted to other markets. The fruit men think that they have been made a means by which the teamsters | intended to force the merchants to grant | their demands. They argue that the | teamsters thought by bringing a great | pressure to bear on the fruit merchants, who were the easiest parties to injure, | the canneries would be induced to peti- tion the Draymen’s Association to grant the demands. In this the teamsters ap- péar to have been mistaken. They suc- | ceeded in causing a loss of thousands of | dollars to the fruit merchants without | aiding the cause in the least. l Porters and Packers May Strike. Each day sees the fruit merchants in a better condition to hold out. Fruit was | being hauled in great quantities yester- day from the Jackson-street wharf—in fact, it was being hauled in such quanti- | ties ‘that one of the leading merchants re- | marked that the wharf was cleaner now | than at this time of the fruit season in | any of the last ten years. Although the teamsters' strike appears to be In a fair way for a speedy settle- ment, it is universally feared in the busi- ness quarter that the epidemic of strikes is not yet passed. Trouble is expected to break out in a few days between (ic | porters, packers and warehouse men and their bosses. No definite cause has be: dissatisfaction, but it is at- tributed to the general feeling of unrest that exists in all labor circles. For the first few days of the present trouble it was predicted that the porters, packers and warehouse men would strike in sym- athy with the teamsters. At a meeting Eeld ‘Wednesday evening the question of a sympathetic strike was thoroughly dis- cussed, but no definite xction was taker, The action of Getz Bros. & Co. in-dis- guarded by a cordon’ The firm had twenty- teams in operation and - each one was guarded by a couple of mounted chlrglnf five of their men because of their refusal to do work prohibited by the though they are ignorant of the streets | rules of their union, and of M.

While our sympathies are en- tirely with the locked-out Brotherhood of Team- sters, we desire to state for the benefit of the public that the men already mentioned were discharged outright for refusing to load and unload scab teams. In future we intend to publish at various times in the daily papers, for the information or benefit of our fellow countrymen, a list of those firms who are antagonistic to our cause, 80 that they may know who are recipients of their hard-earned money. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. Street Car Men Reinstated. All the street car men who went out on account of their union affillations have been reinstated by the Market Street Rail- Company. They met with Manager Vining yesterday and for the present no action will be taken regarding the ulti- matum that has heretofore been sub- mitted. It is proposed now to introduce new demands. The average time of the men employed by the company is fourteen hours, with a basis of pay approximating about $235 per day. The plan that is under discussion in the Car Employes’ Union is to ask for a flat rate of 25 cents | an hour on a basis of ten hours a day. On some of the roads the rate varies from 19 cents upward, and in order to equalize the scale of wages a committee has been appointed to establish a more unifors schedule than at present obtains. The instatement of the men has averted any immediate ~possibility of a strike. The men say, however, that they were graciously received by the management and their demands were listened to with marked attention. The situation now, as far as the Car Employes’ Union is eon- cerned, has resolved ifself into a matter of computation, which must be governed by responsibilities and exigencies of each of the roads in the city, whether operated | by cable, electricity or horse power. The men are satisfied to await the action of the committee before making any demon- stration or showing of strength. Mass Meeting Is Suggested. The conciliatory committee appointed by the president of the Federated Im- provement Clubs to consider the requisite steps to bring to an end the labor_treubles in this city met last evening at Saratoga Hall on Geary street. Dr. C. D. Salfield was appointed chair- man - nd ¥. A. Lorenzo acted as secre- Others present were Nathan Bibo, s _Alpers, F. T. Knowles and Charles Roberts. The question of calling a mass meeting of citizens was discussed at length, and it was decided that a committee of ‘three be appointed to confer with Mayor Phelan as to the advisability of such a step. The committee appointed by the chair- | man was as follows: Nathan Bibo, Charles Alpers and E. A. Lorenzo. | A motion also prevailed that the concil- | iatory committee be raised to 100 in num- | ber,” the president of the Federated Im-| provement Clubs to select the members of the increased committee. Secretary Lorenzo reported that the | conciliatory committee appointed by the | Municipal League had discussed the ques- | tion of ‘a citizens’ mass meeting during the day and that the matter had been left | to the committee of the Improvement | Clubs to take action. The sub-committee appointed last even- ing to confer with the Mayor will mest him this afternoon, and if the Mayor thinks a mass meeting is advisable he will be asked to call one by the committee of one hundred to be appointed to-dny by the president of the Federated Clubs. All the speakers last evening dwelt upd> the injury to Lusiness caused by the pre: ent strikes and advocated legisiative steps to compel zrhitration in disputes cetween ¢mplo, and employ folice Disperse Crowds. A mob that surrounded the Overland Transfer Company’s sheds at Fifth and | Bryant stre in an ugly mood last night and two calls were received at the ! Central Police Station to _disperse fit. | When Lieutenant of Police Martin and a squad of officers arrived they were obliged to use their clubs, but their appearance on the scene prevented any acts of great violence on the part of the crowd. The non-union employes of the Trans- fer Company, it appears, sought food In the neighborhood of the stables, but were refused. As they ventured out of their quarters, which are guarded by patrol- men, crowds of union sympathizers con- gregated and threatened them. Upon the arrival of the patrol wagon four of their number were placed on board and driven to a restaurant at 511 Montgomery street, where they were fed and given food for their fellow workmen who had been re- fused in the Mission district. hortly after 6:3) the services of the po- lice were required at Fourth and Harri- son streets, where.a large body of men had gathered, hooting and jeering: non- union men and using violence in two in- stances. As the partol wagon approached most of the strikers disappeared, and the officers found no mob to quell other than that of women and children. Benjamin Hunter, 50 years of age and residing at Fifteenth and Howard streets, was taken to the general emergency hospital yesterday from the end of Foi- som street to be treated for injuries in- flicted by three men who, he alleges, were striking ironworkers. Hunter, who | works at the Enterprise Foundry, was on his way there vesterday at noon when the men assaulted him and dealt him nu- merous severe blows about the head and face with a blunt instrument. Both of Hunter's eyes were closed, his nose bro- ken and his body badly bruised. He was not able to identify his assailants, as they approached him from behind. STILL AFTER TEHE COLLEGES. State Board of Barber Examiners An- nounces Intentions Regarding Them. War against the barber colleges has been again declared by the State Board of Barber Examiners. An advertisement reading as follows has appeared in the morning papers: ATTBNTION—Wanted men at once to learn the burber trade; in 8 weeks we make you a journeyman barber; we prepare you for the examirations before the Commissioners and secure you a position; ouifit of tools free; having 100 applications for help we offer tui- tion almost free. San Francisco Barber Col- lege, 741 Howard st. “This is an outrage upon the public,” said President Calish of the State Board of Barber Examiners, in which statement he was supported by the members of the board. . “We examined this place and found it in a filthy condition. The present law requires at least three years' actual experience to qualify a man for a certi- ficate. No graduate of any barber college can secure a certificate from this board, and we propose as soon as all the certifi- cates are issued to visit every shop in the city and see that the required certificate is properly displayed. There is a penalty attached for non-compliance, and we pro- pose to see that the law is enforced. We considexg this advertisement an insult " (o the integrity of the board and a direct slap at our efforts to elevate the profes- sion. 1t may take us a few days to reach the matter, but when the ax falls it will fall very hard.” s Building Trades Council Officers.

The Teamsters’ Union voted to-night, on the assurance of thelr officers that the Draymen’s Association would concur in the stand taken, to move no freight out of San Francisco until Monday. This actlon will not affect local traffic, which will be handled as hereto- fore. ‘An exception has also been made with regard to perishable fruit consigned by way of San Francisco to Oakland dealers. The officers of the local Teamsters’ Un- fon expect that the strike will have been settled by Monday, and therefore advised the men to take action only for the inter- vening time. Before the meeting to-night | they held a conference with the employ ing draymen, who held a meeting for that purpose, and announced that the latter would make no attempt to move [reight cross the ferrles before Monday. A formation was_given out at labor headquarters to-might that unless the strike was settled by Monday the Dray- men's Assoclation would not move a wheel after that day until further notice. The teamsters employed by the Austin Freight and Transportation Company have been called out by the San Fran- cisco officers of the Teamsters’ Union on the ground that the company in question hauls local freight in San Francisco. % The local branch of _the Machinists Union has just received $1000 from the na- tional headquur;flrs as strike aid to the ocked-out men here. : Officers of the Cooks' and Waiters’ Un- jon visited Charles Relmers, proprietor of Tischer’s restaurant, with regard to the report that he would attempt to introduce next Monday the scale of hours and wages declared against by the union. The cooks and waiters declare that they will fight the effort to return to seven days work. Suits are threatened against the Oak- land Iron Works to recover the back wages due the twenty-five apprentices at the works when they struck six weeks ago. The officers at the works claim that the boys cannot collect their back wages unless they return to work. Manager Parsons of the Judson Iron Works denies the report that he gave his men a b per cent raise to induce them to return to work In the rolling mill. He says the men are contented, some of them making as high as $235 a month just be- fore the strik Wedding in Petaluma Home.
