Fortunately McVicar caught a piece of rope less than a foot long and dangled in the ! air for some minutes, forty-five feet above the sidewalk. Finally some workmen threw a rope around him and lowered him safely.

T | There is a truce in the street railway | situation. . In a conference between the | officials of the United Railroads and | the representatives of the employes'! union yesterday the matters of differ- | ence were taken up for discussion. This ' conference will be resumed this morn- | | ing and perhaps may last several days. | Both sides last evening professed to re- | gard the situation as promising a satis- factory adjustment of the difficulties | and the avoidance of a strike. The first real step toward an amica- ble settlement was taken ‘yesterday | morning, when President Cornelius and representing the Secretary Bowling, ! Carmen’s Union, were closeted for sev- eral hours with Manager Chapman in | the offices of the company. After this meeting Cornelius said that the man- | and Snug-Fitting Ages 15 to 20.

STRIKE TALK SUBSIDES. The happy effect of this concession was at once seen in the disappearance of strike talk wherever the men gath- ered to discuss the outlook. The news spread with great rapidity, as it always does in times of labor difficulties among street railway emplc and the men . seemed to'be in a much less belligerent passengers | mood when questioned by on their cars. In almost every case the gripmen and conductors expressed the hope that a strike may be avoided, al- though, with a few exceptions, they de- clared that the only way this could be done was by further concessions from the company. The conditions most generally insisted upon were the “flat” rate of 27% cents an hour, the employ- ment of only union men and the dis- continuanee of the importation of East- ern “strike-breakers.” Other matters in great number are at issue between the union and the company, but the men in general are not concerning themselves greatly about these. They are, however, enthuslastic in their de- termination to stand by their union and its official representatives. At yesterday morning's meeting b tween Chapman and the union officers, it was agreed that the detailed discus- sion of the demands of the men should begin forthwith. Accordingly at p. m. Cornelius and Bowling, with sev- -ral other union renresentatives, went down to the United Railroads offices in the Rialto building, where they spent the entire afternoon in conference with ADVERTISEMENTS. BABY'S ECZEMA Tup of Head Coverd wih Seale Which Pested off Taking Hair with Them. CURED BY CUTICURA - Now Six Years OM with Thick Hair and Clean Scalp. Cure Permanent. “My baby was about six weeks old when the top of her head became cov- ered with thick scales, which would peel and come off, taking the hair with it. It would soon form again and be as bad as before. I tried several things and then went to the doctor. He said it was Eczema, and prescribed an oint- ment, which did not do any good. A 1riend spoke of Cuticara Soap. I tried it and read on the wrapper about Cuti- cura Ointment a8 a remedy for Eczema. 1 bought a box and washed her head in ‘warin water and Caticara Soap and gently combed the scales off. They did | not come back and her hair grew out fine and thick. She 18 now a year and a half old and has no trace of Eczema.” MRS. C. W. BURGES, Iranistan Ave., Bridgeport, Conn.. Feb. 21, 1898. Mrs. Burges writes Feb. 28, 1908 : *‘My baby, who had Ecfema very badly on her head, as I told you before, after using the Cuticura Remedies was cured. She is now six years old and has thick bair and a clean scalp.” Instant relief and refreshing sleep for skin-tortured habies and rest for tired, worried mothers in warm baths with Cuticura Soap, and gentle anoint- ings with Caticura Ointment, purest of emollients and greatest of skin cures, tobe followed in severe cases hy mild doses of Cuticura Re<olvent.

BROWN_ 516'SI8 MARKET ST. below : MONTGOMERY | President Holland and Manager Chap- man. When the conference adjourned at 6 o'clock, each side announced that ! the day’s work had simply been a gen- eral discussion preliminary to taking up each point in the union demand in detail at later meetings. The railway representatives agreed to put on no more “students” during the progress of the negotiations. COMPANY CONCILIATORY, “The company does not intend to do anything to provoke a said Chapman, “and, therefore, it was will- ing to grant the union request thatiwe | stop training new men pending the discussion. This seems to be the most sensitive subject with the men. Hene we decided to have it out of the wa. of our efforts for a settlement of the differences. There is nothing furthe: to say about the situation at present. We hope to be able to reach an agree- { ment within a few day General Manager Chapman in an in- | terview last night said: | “We are not looking for trouble, and | are quite inclined to believe that the | great body of our men, if given a fair | cpportunity, will recognize the justice | of our attitude. The company desires to express its deepest gratitude to the public for their almost universal en- dorsement of its course. Expressions | of approval and tender of services are | coming in from every side hourly, and we appreciate them most highly. We want to be right; we have every rea- son to desire to be fair, but even the | fabled worm reaches a place where it must turn. “Merchants and citizens who would be harmfully affected by a strike have frequently inquired if a strike be in- evitable. We cannot say as to that, but we can say that unless the social- ist element throws aside all union prin- ciples and ignores the plain letter of their printed constitution and general laws an actual strike must be preceded by certain formal proceedings, of which doubtless the public will have due no- tice. WITHDRAWAL OF STUDENTS. “The formal resolution of the carmen, relating to students ‘breaking in,' asks that the future employment of men in excess of the legitimate requirements of the service be suspended during the | pendency of negotiations, and ‘the pres- ident of the union was directed to re- quest the United Railroads to discon- tinue breaking in men in excess of the | normal requirements of the service’ and ‘in case of a refusal to netify the company that members would refuse to break in any more men.’ “Neither ‘this resolution nor any- thing like it was ever delivered to any officer of the company, which was flatly told ‘the resolution didn't mat- ter; that all students now breaking in must be withdrAwn by noon to-day.’ In other words, at noon that day they, the Carmen’s Union, would cease to break'men in. This unfriendly. ulti- matum was outside of their instruc- tions; it was never adopted by the union, so far as we know. All con- sideration for ‘normal requirements’ were simply tossed to one side. “It must be distinctly borne in mind that the increase given by the arbiters was based on no expressed ground ex- cept to secure industrial peace, and continue for years. It was the third and final concession for industrial peace. We interpreted it in a more than liberal spirit, and we propose to have what we are paying for. or not to pay for something we are not getting for our money."” President Cornelius of the Carmen's Union said last night: “Our conference afternoon with President Hollatid and Manager Chap- man was merely introeductory to a full- er discussion of the union schedule, but I am glad to say that the situation looks well. There is not 2 man among us, I think, who wants to see a strike, and as for myseif you may say that I shall do all in my power to avert it. 1 think the company wants to meet / with an expressed hope that it would | yus in a fair spirit, and if this is so, we {ought to be able to get together. For the present there is nothing more to announce. We shall stand pat on our ! demands and expect to win out, but | we all hove to do this without resort- ing to a strike.” Fremont Parlor Will Entertain. Fremont Parlor, Native Daughters of the Golden West, will give an enter- |tainment and social in Golden Gate Hall on the night of April 12, which, the committee of arrangements as- serts, will excell'any previously given by this very popular parlor.

Nt From the Furniture and Carpet Trade Review of March 15. “There has been some talk among the furniture dealers of advancing retail prices, but so far it has come to noth- ing. The prices will remain as they are now—at least until May,” when Patto- siens have closed their doors. . ——————— Addition to Baptist Churches.

He says the rocks were loosened by the blasting operations of the defend- ants, and that the racks became de- tached because of the fallure of the defendant to ‘take proper precautions. —_———————— Burnett’s Vanilla Extract used and highly indorsed by ail leading hotels. * | BEST JAPAN RICE SWEET Port, Sherry, Angelica.
