The convention convened the the letter was written, and the writers predicted torrid times dur- ing the sessions, which have been ful- filled by the daily telegraphic reports of the proceedings. Rumors are rife that a big strike of engineers and firemen is brewing on the New York Central Railroad. Dis- satisfacti with the scale of wages established in the electric zone from Croton to the Grand Central station in New York is said to be the cause. Bul letins have been issued announcing that | engineers on the electric trains will be paid $3.75 for a day of ten hours and firemen $2. This is considerably less than engineers and firemen on steam engines are receiving, the former earn- ing as high as $200 a month and the firemen half of that, the amount de- pending on overtime. It is expected that the clash if it comes will involve the entire New York Central system. . . | Twelve hundred hands were thrown {out of employment by the shutdown of the Edwards Company of Agusta, Me. for an indefinite period.

Riggers and Stevedores Ask for Im- crease in Daily Wages. The Riggers’ and Stevedores’ Union yesterday served notice on all firms employing members of the union that beginning on Monday a new wage schedule would go into effect. This schedule was decided upon at a meet- ing of the union held Thursday night at Eagles’ Hall. In the case of deep water cargoes and coal ships, as well as for handling ballast, there is no change from the old rates. In all other cases there is a general advance. Sugar and salmon cargoes have been placed in the deep water class and for | handling cargoes of this kind the | stevedores ask 55 cents an hour and $1 an hour overtime. The same rate is asked for handling coal cargoes and ballast. For all other kinds of work the rate asked Is 50 cents an hour and 75 cents overtime. Nine hours will constitute a day’s work. The present rate is 40 cents an hour and 50 cents an hour overtime. The employers were not willing yes- terday to give any indication as to whether they would concede to the men’s demande. NEW TEAMSTERS' UNION. Shea’s Opponents in Chicago Form a Rival Organization. CHICAGO, Aug. 10—A new union |to be known as the United Teamsters of America was formally launched to- day as the rival of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. While C. P. Shea, the re-elected president, and other officers of his staff were winding up the affairs of the convention of the organization, the |new one, with 120 delegates, was in | process of formation. After the name | had been decided upon, the delegates who had bolted Shea’s organization last | Tuesday took up the task of working |out a constitution. It was decided that |the one governing the regular United | States organization would do if re- modeled in some particulars. The delegates went on record as op- posing political action, such as advo- cated by the American Federation of Labor. —_— ALPHA DINING ROOMS, 1771 Geary Street, Near Fillmore.

To preserve this business and to keep the Pacific Coast from' suffering because of the calamity llar on the one hand and the keen Eastern hunter of pas- senger traffic on the other. the Seuth- ern Pacific and the system of which it is a part are waging a battle unique in the history of railroad publicity campaigns.

As much more will be expended | through transportation issued in ex-| change for advertising, unless it be decided that such exchange comes un- der the ban of the new interstate com- merce law. The cagh appropriations are to be expended for magazine and newspaper advertising, for industrial promotion, for booklets setting forth the advantages of California, for pic- tures” ill ting California’'s wonder- ful scenery, for pamphlets making known the delights of the steel trafls leading hither, for card displays in urban railway systems announcing excursion rates and reasons why it is the time to come West—in brief, in all the effective ways the advertiser may find to express the attractions of Cali- JURY LANDS D o8 AELoRD A. Schoenfeld, Evicted Tenant, Given Dam-| ages in Sum of $:>000 HOME Landlerds who have taken advnntuga of increased property values to jump rents would best beware. In the first jury case tried A. Schoenfeld, a dis-| possessed tenant of James S. Webster, received vindication in the Superior Court yesterday in the way of a $5000 verdiet for damages. Under the statute Judge Kerrigan will be obliged to treble the damages ,and award the premises to Schoenfeld. Schoenfeld held the premises on a verbal lease, according to his testimony. That other | suits will follow the many that have already been filed in the Superior Court is expected. Schoenfeld testified that he leased the premises at 1113 Fillmore street| through a real estae firm for $30 a month. He secured the key and took possession April 20, leaving a sign) stating, that he would oceéupy the ofllcn with a Stock of goods. Two. days later Schoenfeld discovered that the place was padlocked and had been taken possession of by a man named Pitts, who paid $160 a month. It came out In the testimony that Pitts | had one of his clerks stand on guard with a gun and that he told Schoenfeld he knew what would happen if he un-| dertook to go into the store. For the defcnse it was claimed that| Sehoenfeld rented the premises with the understanding that the owner must approve and that such approval was not given. The jury evidently believed the story | of the man who rented. SKULL FRACTURED BY TWO THUGS. William Ewing, a fireman on the steam schooner National City, was waylaid and badly beaten last night graph cars in San Francisco with gas- oline “scout” cars to accompany them, | and began the task of photographing | all points of interest in California and | Portland, | along the °s hetween Omaha and New Orleans. A collection of advertis material valued at §75.000 has been destroyed; already | one-half of the photographs have been | replaced. At the same time an {llus-| trated folder, “San Francisco, Imper- ishable,” with maps and pictures showing that only a small part or; San Francisco's area had been burned | over, that the earthquake damage was relatively Insignificant, that the water front was intact. was sent to the four corners of the earth—and to all inter- mediate stations. Three editions of | this folder have been issued and a fourth is in the press, with a total issue of 250,000 coples. PROGRESS IS NOTED. At the same time a weekly bulletin of San Francisco's reconstruc..on was begun. It was named ‘‘Progress.” Each Saturday it carries the news of the city's growth to three thousand of the leading newspapers of tue United States, besides all of the big rallway offices, etc. To each number of “Pro- gress” at least one prominent Cali- fornia citizen has contributed articles from the hopeful point of view, the list including the Governor, the Mayor of San Francisco, a United States Senator, presidents of univer- sities, internal revenue collectors, | presidents of nearly all local commer- cial organizations, Harbor Commission- ers, ete. Thousands of clippings taken from “Progress” by FEastern papers have been received by the Southern Pacific Passenger Department. Three hundred and fifty employes of Southern Pacific commercial agen- cies in the East were instructed to talkk good cheer about Californfa im- mediately after the disaster. In every Southern Pacific Eastern office is a large picture of San Francisco taken after the earthquake and before the fire, showing the destruction to have been caused by fire. This winter's limited trains to Cali- fornia—the Overland Limited and the Golden State Limited—are to be ex- tensively advertised with appropria- tions of at least $50,000 each by the Harriman lines and connections. ELABORATE WORKS OF ART. The “Road of a Thousand Wonders,” probably the most elaborate work of color printing ever issued, 45,000 copies of which were destroyed -y the fire, will be at once reissued by the Sputhern Pacific. Describing the lne from Los Angeles to Portland, it is of particular value in Inducing tour- ist travel In connection therewith and beginning in September, the Southern Pacific has begun a year's Campaign in twenty-one leading Eastern magazines, in advertising the attractions of California and the “Road of a Thousand Wonders.” The expense of this one campaign will be $75,000. Simultaneously, a similar book, “The Overland Route,” showing the way from Omaha to San Francisco, is being printed with the same beautiful color {llustrations. This book, too, will be extensively advertised so that all who ride must read. One hundred thou- sand booklets descriptive of every part of the State have been printed since the fire, and another hundred thousand will be printed within sixty days. The two color books, and indeed all oth- ers, are being engraved by San Fran- cisco engravers and printed by San Francisco printers. The Eastern mag- azine advertising designs are belng made by California artists, and plcture reproductions by California photog- raphers. Postponed.
