Upsets Livernash's Efforts to Establish Carmen’s Fourth Demand. — Secretary Willcutt of Company Or- dered by Its Attormney Not to Tell About Profits and Values. PRI L When the arbitration proceedings be- tween the Carmen's Union and the United yesterday morning E. J. Livernash announced that temporarily he would pass to a new branch of the | case, “namely, demand four, which is that the men are entitled to share with their employer in his business prosper- ity.” Livernash's efforts on these lines were a failure. essor Washington Dodge, who was first called to help out in this effort, sought to show how he had raised the essment on the cor- | n, and Secretary G. B. Willcutt of United Railroads, under the advice Attorney Moore, refused to answer ¢ questions relative to the cost, oper- ating enses or value of the company’s | properties. When the case opened in the morning Livernash made the following statement: Because Mr. Chapman has not produced cer- tain promised statistics bearing on the earn- | s of extra men and the hours of labor of lar men engaged in platform work for the United Railroads. 1 shall temporarily pass to a new branch of the case for the Carmen's Union It is my design now to offer certain evidence in support of the fourth reason assigned by the unfon for asking an increase in the wages | of its members in the employ of the United | Railroads. That reason has been set forth in the union’s opening pleading, as follows: MEN’S DEMANDS. “IV.—The wealth produced jointly by the capital and ability of said corporation and the labor and ability of its workmen is so great that the proposed increase can be made and yet leave the corporation an undue share of ch_jointly produced wealth.’ 1 desire first to enter upon proofs as to the rks Attorney Moore was on his feet a moment with the most persistent ob- tion He said: “This will in no degree ators in determining the questions presented for their considera- tion, but will rather tend to confuse the | jssues and add a false element to the de- liberations of the board.” Assessor Dodge was then called. He testified that Secretary G. B. Willcutt sent in a statement for 1902 valuing the property of the Market Street Railway Company at $863,512. The Assessor, how- | ever, had valued the Sutro, Sutter and San Mateo lines, cash in hand and equip- ment of the United Railroads at $4,000,000, and added $15,000,000 for the franchises. Secretary Willeutt was then called to the stand and was asked a few questions relative to the United Rallroads. He was i when he was instructed by Moore not to answer further. REFUSES TO ANSWER. “I don't know your reason for asking this question, Mr. Livernash,” Mr. Moore said, “but if it is to support vour demand about the men sharing in the profits with the company I must instruct Mr. Will- cutt not to answer any questions relative to the subject.” “Yes, we are now on the fourth de- mand of the carmen,” replied Livernash, “and we are not trying to share in the profits of the company; if we were the men certainly would earn $4 or $ a day. All the carmen want is a fair day’s pay. “The United Railroads pays and will always be willing to pay all its employes fair wages,” Moore replied. “Whether the company is making lots of money or is in the hands of a receiver has nothing to do with the carmen. We maintain that if the company were in the hands of a re- celver the men are still entitled to and should earn just the same wages as if the company was prosperous. I shall in- struct all the officials of' the company to refuse to furnish any books on any sub- ject bearing on whether the company is Wealthy or poverty stricken, or bearing upon any question on the value of the company's property.” NOT ANARCHISTS. To this Livernash replied: “I wish to di- rect the attention of the arbitrators to what is or what is not a Tair day's pay. This is the subject of arbitration. The matter is not to be settled by the officials of the company. The statement that we wish to share In the profits of the com- pany is misleading. The carmen I repre- sent claim they are not receiving a fair day's pay for a fair day's work. The money that they are earning now is prac- tically less than what they earned prior to the strike, owing to the increased price in the cost of living. There are no so- cialistic or anarchistic doctrines in what Attorney position of dividend earners; all we want is testimony to show that the earnings of the company are much more than they were.” Attorney Moore, however, was obdurate and positively refused to allow Willcutt to answer questions while Livernash wae T NEWLY APPOINTED SECRE- TARY OF THE BOARD OF BANK COMMISSIONERS. £ S HE recently appointed State working to prove that demand four of the carmen was reasonable. Livernash was nonplused for awhile, and undeclded what course to pursue. He had many questions which he wanted placed on the record. He eventually asked Willcutt all of the questions, and the latter cast his eyes up at the ceiling and refused to answer. The old Pacific Improvement Company scandals were dug up and among other questions which Will- cutt refused to answer was the following: HUNTINGTON’S METHODS. . “Is it not a fact that the Mission street line was constructed by Huntington and the contract was awarded to the Pacific Improvement Company; that the stock- holders of the Pacific Improvement Com- pany owned stock in the Mission street line and that Huntington and his friends charged exorbitant prices in construetion work and then divided the profits? You know all about this, don’t you now, Mr. ‘Willcutt The secretary, however, shook his head. “Well what T want to show,” continued Livernash, “is that the actual value of the properties of the United Railroads is not as much as they would like it to be represented on Wall street.” In the afternoon C. E. Grunsky, City Engineer, was called and read reports, which he had filed with the Board of Public Works relative to the cost of construction of street railways in this city. - The resumption of the taking of testi- mony will be continued at ten this morn- ing. Livernash expects to close his side of the case about next Wednesday, and the United Railroad’ officials will then have its innings, G ol Board of Bank Commissioners met vesterday afternoon and elected J. Cal Ewing secretary. The vote was unanimous. This means that harmony is restored and that none of the funds allowed the board will go to wasta. The commission has been deluged for several days with applications for the secretaryship, which is worth $20 a month. It is known that Ewing expected to ret an appointment to the commission. He worked hard for the election of Governor Pardee and has been awaiting a comfcrt- able berth. When it became known that he would not be made a member of the board it was generally supposed that he would get the secretaryship. The new commissioners declared that the secre- tary must devote the whole of his time to the work, but Ewing has other matters that demand attention, so there was some uncertainty regarding his accept- ance. It is asserted by those who ought to know that the baseball magnate has dis- covered that he can take the job and in- cidentally the salary attached thereto, Bank Commissioner Dunsmoor said yes- terday: “Mr. Ewing has been appointed secretary on the understanding, so far as the board is concerned, that he wil devote as much of his time to the work as is the custom.” The board yesterday i{ssued a a license for the establishment of the Mission Bank in this city. The new institution is capitalized at $200,000, avhich is fully sub- scribed and half of which is already paid in. The bank will do a commercial busi- ness exclusively. Its doors will open on the morning of July 15. James Ralph has been elected presi- dent; F. B. Anderson, vice president; James Allen, secretary, and Stuart Smith, cashier. The directors are W. H. Crim, E. W. Hopkins, F. B. Anderson, G. Centee, A. M. Storey, William Bab- cock and James Ralph. The bank will be located on the corner of Sixteenth street and Julian avenue. e WASHINGTON, July S.—David F.

Loss to Building and Stock Estimated to Reach $125,000. e ——— For thieves to carry on their operations under cover of darkness during the tem- porary absence of peace officers is not regarded as out of the ordinary, but when | several criminals, having in tow a val- uable buggy, deliberately pass a cordon | of police, in broad daylight, and make way with their plunder, it furnishes something to ponder over. It was due to the vigilance of two citizens that the car- riage was recovered later in the day. During the progress of the fire which | destroyed the building of Studebaker-Bros. | Company at Tenth and Market streets | and its contents early vesterday morn- | ing the firemen were able to drag out a | few vehicles to a place of safety before | the flames and smoke caused them to de- | sist in their work. Several fancy traps, a hack or two and four or five rubber- | tired buggies were pulled out of the burn- | ing structure and on the sidewalk. | As is usual in all fires, the police re- | sponded and roped off the streets to keep back the curious crowd of onlcokers from hampering the Fire Department in its work. Inasmuch as three alarms were sent in for the fire in question, two score of officers and several sergeants respond- ed. Notwithstanding the presence of this | array of peace guardians, three thieves managed to secure possession of one of the valuable buggies and take the ve- hicle through the lines. BUGGY. | SEE MEN HAULING About 4:15 a. m. as Proprietor Blodes, of the Derby Cafe at Market and Page streets, was returning to his establishment from the fire, in company | with a friend, they were surprised to see three men haul a buggy up Market street and turn into Brady street. Surmising that something was wrong, Patrolmen | Mitchell and Slattery were notified. Brady street, which, according to the police, has not the best reputation, runs | through to West Mission street. Leading | from it arc several blind alle The offi- | cers arrived on the scene within a few | minutes after the vehicle was seen turn- | ing into the thoroughfare, but there was not a trace of the men or their booty. Every place where it would be possible | to hide the rig was searched and the pa- | trolmen were inclined to believe that they were the victims of some exponent of black art, who was able to cause the dis- appearance of most anything, from a needle to a threshing machine. After searching for some time the buggy was | finally located in a barn on Brady street | and taken to the Mission police station. | Later in the day Luke Reilly, James Reilly and John Reilly, three young men who reside In the neighborhood, were tak- en Into custody on suspicion of having | committed the theft. Their names were en. tered on the detinue book, but upon in vestigation it was found they were abso- | lutely innocent and accordingiy were re- | leased from custody. i It is understood that several vehicles were stolen during the progress of the | fire and the police are investigating. Cap- tain Martin has detalled detectives on the ' case and they are now following a clew | which may result in the apprehension of the thieves who placed the buggy in th Brady-street barn. | DEFECTIVE INSULATION. ’ An examination of the premises occu- | pled by Studebaker Bros.' Company dis- | closed the fact that but little of the prop- | erty escaped the ravages of the flames. | On the fourth floor heavy wagons remain | and some of them may be repaired and, rendered salable, but most of the valu- able stock was ruined and will be con- | signed to the scrap pile. The firm, how- | ever, will resume business to-day. Of- fices have been secured at 132 Market street and orders will be filled from the warehouses.
