Wilson appeared before the Board of Public Works yesterday and informed that | body that B. Lantry & Sons are in the| | habit of firing off heavy blasts in the | Potrero despite the order of the Board of Supervisors that they cease doing so. | Wilson stated that extraordinarily heavy charges of powder were used by the firm after 6 o'clock, when the inspector of the board had gone home. Wilson stated that his house had been severely shaken by the blasts, and the board detailed an in- que_clor to investigate the complaint. he board awarded the contract for re- paving Spear street, between Market and | | Company, the lowest bldder. The board granted a permit to former Police Commissioner Newhall to remove his building from the corner of Van Ness | avenue and Sutter street to a lot on Pa- cific avenue, near Fillmore street. The petition was modified so that the house will be moved along Van Ness avenue for two blocks only, thence will be taken out Pine to Webster, thence to its desti- nation. —_———— Had Blackjack in His Pocket. Charles Jennings was convicted by Po- lice Judge Fritz yesterday on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon and was sen- tenced to serve six months in the County | Jail.

Yesterday Corporal Sylvester, in charge | of the Chinatown squad, filed his report of the work done by the squad for last month. The report shows that the squad has been doing excellent work, the results being far in excess of the previous month.

National Officers of Brother- hood in Conference With President Sabin. ——— It 1s sald that by this evening the strike of the linemen employed by the Pacific States Telephone and Telegraph Com- pany, which has been in force over the en- tire system of the company since June 23, will be at an end. After a conference be- tween President John I. Sabin of the cor- poration and three national officers of the Electrical Workers’ Union held yesterday afternoon, Sabin announced that the strike was virtually over and that a second conference to be held to-day will clinch matters. After the election of national officers of the brotherhood, which was held at the convention in Salt Lake three weeks ago, it became evident that the new set of officlals was not strongly in sympathy with the strike on the coast and that measures of conciliation would be’ insti- tuted by them. To that end the newly chosen president of the national body, T. J. McNulty, came to this city a few days | ago, together with J. H. Walters, a mem- ber of the Western conference. These officers, with Michael J. Sullivan, who is seventh vice president of the national brotherhood and is employed in the de- partment of electricity in this city, made the first steps toward ending the strike by calling upon President Sabin at his office yesterday. LONG CONFERENCE HELD. The conference lasted more than two hours. At its finish the representatives of the striking employes would make no statements concerning the results of the session, but Sabin stated that its object was to talk over the situation with a view to coming to an amicable agreement upon the mooted questions and that the results were satisfactory to himself and the com- pany of which he is the head. It is un- derstood that the linemen will return to work on Monday. “We will have another meeting to-mor- row morning,” sald President Sabin, “when I expect that all disputed ques- tions will be settled and that the strike will be at an end. The national officers who have been in conference with me are free to admit that the strike had not sufficient merit of provocation and that it has been their desire ever since they took office to bring the labor trouble to an | end.” At the headquarters of the union last night it was not admitted that any move- ment toward bringing the strike to an end had been made. The members of the union declared complete Ignorance of the mission which had brought their national officers out to a conference with Sabin. They sald that whatever action may be determined upon will be discussed at a special meeting of the union to-night. HOW THE STRIKE BEGAN. The strife between the telephone com- pany and its linemen had its inception in the walkout which was made by the em- ployes in Los Angeles on May 4. All of the other local unions of electrical work- ers in every city which is embraced by the eystem of the telephone company then took up the cause of the strikers in the southern clty. A demand waf made that the uniform wage of $3 50 a day for all journeymen linemen should be pald by the company and that the union should be recognized.

Answers His Suit by Accus- ing Him of Being a Disturber. FSERE S S Henry Costen’'s ambition to become manager of the new Market-street head- quarters of the Building Trades Council is, acording to a legal document filed yes- terday by the council, one of the causes of the row between the council and the Cornice Workers' Union, of which Cos- ten is secretary. The document is an answer to Costen's suit for a writ of mandate compellirig the | council to restore him as representative | of the cornice workers to membership in the council. The suit was brought on the | a chance to defend himself and contrary to the by-laws and regulations of the council. | The answer of the council is a complete | denial of every one of the charges brought | by Costen and is in addition a relation of many incidents tending to show that its action was justified. According to the | document Costen is a disturber, a man | of ungovernable temper and one who has ever since his election to the executive board of the council provoked strife. He is charged with assaulting A. E. Yoell, | a fellow member, and with almost biting | the finger off J. J. Swanson, delegate to | the council. The answer also charges | Costen with acting improperly at nearly{ every meeting of the body he attended and | with threatening to ‘“‘use his influence” | to disrupt the body unless he was given | the position of manager of the new head- | quarters of the council. He was suspend- | ed last January because of these alleged | acts of insubordination. Since then, it | is averred, he has been communicated | with several times and requested to ap- | pear before the council to make proper | protest against his suspension, but has | falled to accept the chance to prove him- self worthy of membership.

From the obdurate attitude which Presi. dent Sabin has maintained from the first against the demands of the striking em- ployes the belief is very strong that it is the strikers, and not the employers, who have had to give way in the present in- stance, and that the linemen will be re- turned upon practically the same basis as that which they held before the trou- cede to these demands a general strike |ble with the telephone company com-| of all the linemen in the coast States, | menced.

Both the Western Pacific Railway Com- pany and the San Francisco and South- ern Raflway Company, who have flled petitions for franchises to enter the city at certain designated points and thence along certaln streets, must give the Board of Supervisors full information regarding the promoters and backers of the corpor- ations before they can hope for favorable action on their applications. This ulti- matum was delivered yesterday by the Street Committee of the board, and fur- ther consideration of the two petitions was postponed for one week. Charles F. O'Callaghan, president of | the San Francisco and Southern Railway Company, appeared to urge the granting of a franchise to his road. He assured the committee that the petition was made in good faith and the road was to run from Santa Cruz to this city. “So far as I am concerned,” said Su- pervisor Braunhart, “you will have to give us the names of those who are back- ing the enterprise. We had one petition of this character from the Bay and Coast Railway Company, of which W. T. Bag- gett was president, and we denled the learn who the promoters were. My senti- ments apply to any other company seek- ing a franchise.” The petition of the Atchison, Topeka chise along Seventn, Seventeenth, Eight- eenth, Mariposa and other streets was referred to the Board of Public Works for a report regarding the engineering detalls of the scheme, and consideration thereon was also postponed for one week. The committee reported in favor of a proposed ordinance amending the speci- fications for street work so that no cob- on any street whose gradient is less than 15 per cent. The petition of John Kelso for permis- sion to explode blasts at Lombard street, between Sansome and Winthrop, was de- nied, and the clerk was ordered to notify the Board of Works of the committee’s action. The committee decided to hear the ap- peal of G. D. Clark from the assessment for the building of a sewer in Richland avenue and Holly street on Monday, Oc- tober 12. The petition of property owners that the so-called “cemeteries” block and the blocks north of Lake street and west of First avenue be renumbered by the As- sessor and City Engineer was favorably reported upon. The committee reported In favor of changing the name of Sullivan street to Parnassus avenue. The Union Oil Company filed a petition for permission to use a spur track on Tllinois street to connect with the tracks of the Santa Fe Company. The interest- ing fact was disclosed that the spur track was lald by some parties unknown with- out permission from the Board of Super- visors. The committee expressed aston- ishment at the discovery and then refer- red the matter to the Board of Works for investigation and report. BODY OF A STRANGER FOUND FLOATING IN WATERS OF BAY Find Made by William Barlow May Sying to Light a Foul Murder. 2 ‘While engaged in attending to some nets in the vicinity of Blossom Rock, Willlam Barlow, a fisherman, discovered the badly decomposed body of a man floating in the bay. He made a rope fast to the body and towed it to Fisherman's wharf. The Coroner was notified and the body taken to the Morgue. The features were entire- ly gone and it is the opinion of the offi- cials that the deceased had been in the waters of the bay for more than a month, The dead man was coatless and all that remained of the wearing apparel was a blue flannel shirt, black trousers and gray underwear. A significant feature and one that lends color to a foul play theory is the fact that both pockets in the pants solutely no property was found on the y. The authorities will endeavor to estab- lish the identity of the dead man by the clothes, and, if possible, ascertain the cir- cumstances his tragic ead, McCOY’S -.SPECIAL...
