The leaders on both sides ! were drawn into the debate. By a vote of 112 to 127 the House de~ feated an amendment excepting the Sierra, the Sonoma and the Ventura of the Oceanic line from the operation of | the bill empowering the Postmaster General to make contracts with citi- zens of the United States for carrying the mails on steamships.

Young| Murphy is suffering from a danger | wound in the groin, while Clark injured in the leg. The shooting was done in Mount Calvary Cemetery with a 23-caliber rifle.

AND RETAIL RACING NEW CALINI!]A JOCKEY CLUB Oakland | meut to arbitrate; | rate. Tam not convinced. | of the union Arbiters Engage in Hot Dispute Continued from Page 7, Column 7 cousel of the carmen is also different from that of the Chief Justice. I do not differ from the Chief Justice when he holds that a contract may have & moral obligation even when not enforce- lbla e Dy eivil Jaw. T.believe, however, that a tract may be terminated otherwise than by the mtual congent of " the. conteaeting. partien fand 1 hold that here such termination was | brought about by the changes produced in the ob- | Ject of the eontract by the events of April 18. I do not feel competent to enter on a_discns- slon of the rules of legal construction. For me Le history of arbitration began with the agree- nd from that agreement alone do 1 draw my powe The disparity between apprentices and extra men 15, in my mind, not disturbed by the reason- ing of the Chief Justice. The apprentice may be laboring all day, but his output is }imited by | reason of his lack of skill. so that he may do in elght hours what @ journeyman can do in one. But the extra man's output of finished labor is nat at all foferior to the regular man's, minufe by minnte and hour by hour. If for the sake of baving apprentices the company s wiling to pay them a living wage for an hour's output, why should it not be equally willing for the sike of having extra men to pay &n extra man a living Wl" for an hour's output? That the difference between. the rate of in- crease given to the various classes of carmen is justiied by the union's demand for a flat It is to the advantage to bave a flat rate and it Is willing to pay for the advantage, just as it i for the advantage of the company to have graduated seale for which advantage the com- pany is also called upon to pay. But tbe deci- sion catches the carmen coming and going; it gives them all the disadvantage of the flat rate and the company gets all the advantages of the gradusted scale The comparison of the wages and the before the decision aud after the deculon is made from the two termini, not from the half way Louse or the terminus. The ten hours is clearly stated in the complaint ss the upper ter- winus and the eight hours as the lower. In conclusion must repeat my protest | made in the body of my opinion against the board's teking on itself to decide the right or ctio wrong of f the United Railroads fn electrizing fally as that action is Tishle e utes. The arbiter of the company gives In his con- rring jon certalu figures purporting to show hat the increase in wages wiil eost the com- pany, About these figures I know nothing, and | the bourd can kuow nothing now. The com- pany distinctly Tefused to let the board of | bitration know anything skout its finances and when the counsel of the carmen called attentlon to ‘o produce evidence the legal maxim d that such faflure should be pre- sumed agalust the party voluntarily suppressing such_evidence, T do not think that now e the proper time to produce fignres that we cannot either provide or control. TROY ATTACKS BEATTY The following interview was given out last night by E. P. E. Troy, who has been closely associated with Albert M. Johnson, counsel for the union, in | the case: In his opinfon Judge Beatty misstates facts, ignores, evidence, give o certificate of character to the United Railroads, and by inference indorses its trans- actions with the Board of Supervisors, and travels entirely outside the record of the case to sustain bis award. In the cases where the number of men affected are but few in number he grants every demand. while in the case of the carmen, involving 90 per cent of the employes of the company, the award is but 20 per cent. Some years ago the Spring Water Company permitted the Haskins Board of Supervisors to reduce water rates 50 per cent on five-story dwellings and nothing on one and two story dwellings, with the loud acclalm that a liberal reduction had oh been made. Undoubtedly Jadge Beatty is as ‘safe, kindly, Just, friendly”’ to labor as was the slave owner of Kentucky. The company may issue $50,000.- 000 of capital. of which $45,000.000 is water; the profit that it gathers in this clLy for its Eastern and_European stock and bond holders and the traffic on its cars may double, as they have d ing the past five years; less men and less cars may be used to do this work: yet Judge Beatty states that any increase In the compensation of the men is not a wage paid for services rendered, but a taking of so much ecapital from the cmo- pany. To him property rights, even stolen fran- chise rights, are superior to human rights. He has deliberately misstated the facts in evidence in order to justify the special pies in favor of the United Railroads, taking advantage of the permit from the Schmitz administration to abandon the cable roads, when he declares | that all the power houses of the company were destroyed. The insurance proofs of loss with the affidavits of the superintendents of the goes outside of the lssues to | “Brin A Good g Me Cigar” Recently a State Senator on a dining car asked the waiter to bring him cigar.” The waiter u brought two boxes— one was a Triangle A cigar, and the other an unknown brand. “‘Which is the better 2 asked the Senator. The waiter recommended the unknown brand. “Why ?” the Senator demanded. The waiter grinn to p ” he said. ‘‘Boss says that’s the one You don’t want to depend on what “‘the boss” wants to push—you’d rather choose for yourself. How do you know a good cigar? You can now buy cigars with the maker’s guarantee on every box—a mark of merit that distinguishes scientific methods systematically applied to cigar production—a mark that stands for im- proved quality—Dbetter, riper tobaceo, " thoroughly matured and actually blend- ed—smooth, even-smoking cigars, abso- lutely clean—without increased cost. Whatever you pay, whatever your taste, the “A” (Triangle A) mark is your guarantee of supe- rior and reliable quality and unquestionable value. The New CREMO 5 cents 4 affords you a fine opportunity to prove it by the smoking test. Every box is extra-wrapped in glassine paper, sealed to maintain perfect smoking condition and cleanliness until the box is opened. AMERICAN CIGAR COMPANY Manufacturer United Rallroads attached prove that the Va- lencia-street power house was but slightly dam- aged and that the entire Market-street system could have been put in operation. MUSIC LESSONS FREE Piano Manufacturers Unite to Furnish Free Lessons. The saving which modern business methods effect for the retail buyer well illustrated in the plan which is now being carried out by Eilers Music Compeny. Heretofore many piano manufacturers have paid special artists large sums of money for play- ing their pianos, or spent enormous sums for costly advertisements in the magazines. ~The editor of London Truth recently told of one great pianist who is soon to play in San Francisco, who made the remark that he would play om a tin Kettle if paid sufficiently well for it. Such advertising is ex- travagant, falls Indirectly upon the| plano buyers, and is usually insincere. The Eilers Music Company, following out their well-known principle of sav- ing as much as possible to the retail buyer, has arranged with nine Eastern manufacturers to sell five hundred and eighteen planos at the very closest possible prices, and in addition to fur- nish each buyer with a four months’ course of music lessons from any teacher the buyer may seleot. COMMON-SENSE ADVERTISING This Plane House realizes that their best advertisement is in each piano sold. It is therefore proper that the sums of money which are often paid for the indorsement of great artists, and other extravagant advertising, should go into the pockets of th who purchase the pianos for their own homes. This form of advertising is not only practical, but the pianos sold are to be of the highest grade in every re- spect, they will serve as a standing ad- vertisement for years to come. A REAL GUARANTEE ‘While other houses give five and ten year guarantees, and some, lifetime guarantees, the small value of these must be apparent to every one, for if you purchase a piano that does not satisfy you the dealer merely agrees to take it back and sell you a better one for more money.. The Ellers ho -is positively the only pilano store in San Francisco that gives a money-back guarantee with each Instrument sold. If you buy a piano it must give uno— taction or there is no sale. - DEPENDABLE PIANOS This advertising sale is conflned to B18 of the very cholcest pianos. Did you ever hear of any one who owned a Hazelton, or a Decker or a Kimball ‘who was not an enthusiast on it? There CDR. O'FARR!&I- AND STEINER NP oiens o ’ nfin‘r"m’“ ‘“‘i%‘& R soNbkr.

The Hobart M. Cable, used in many musical studios the beautiful Story & Clark, the well- known Schubert, the Smith & Barnes, the Bailley, the Haines Bros. all have been leaders of their respective classes for many years. STARTLING PRICES You will be pleased with this won- derful exhibition of pianos, but you will be startled by the unusual prices at which they are being sold. Planos regularly sold at $560 and $600 in other cities will go for almost $200 less. $322, $269 and $286 are the prices we are asking for $450 and $500 styles. A piano which another San Francisco house is advertising “worth $300 for $245"—this identical plano can be ob- tained brand new from us at $186. PAYMENTS TO SUIT The prices at which these 513 planos are marked are necessarily for all cash; but if you wish you can have a liberal time in which to pay for the piano, by paying simple interest on the unpaid balance. $6 a month will buy you a fine plano. The more elaborate styles are 48 and $10, and several very costly ones go for $12 and $15 monthiy. SELECT YOUR MUSIC TEACHER. After ‘you have bought your piano select your own music teacher for a four months’ course of lessons. The manufacturer pays the bill. MAIL ORDERS. Hundreds of peopls who could not conveniently come.to San Francisco have ordered pianos by mail. In every instance we have more than pleased such buyers, as we take particular pains in choosing planos for those who cannot make their own selections. We. ship our pianos to any part of the West, freight prepaid, subject to examination. This gives people at a distance from the city the same opportunity to get a’ good piano as residents of San Fran- cisco. You see and try the plano before Musfe Company.
