Resolved, That ¦ no franchise shall be here
after granted by this board for the construction
and operation of any street railroad upon or
over, or under, the streets or parts of streets
of this city and county, unless a clause is in
serted In said franchise, in addition to the vari
ous ¦ other conditions required by the charter
and the Board of Supervisors, "that no dis
crimination shall be made against any employe
of the railroad company to which the franchise
is granted on the ground that said employe is
a member of a labor union, and that a failure
to comply with this condition shall work an
immediate forfeiture of the franchise granted
and the road or track constructed thereunder "
Whereas, It is the opinion of this board that
the street railroad companies of this city, which
have been granted valuable franchises and who
are using our public streets, for which the city
receives very little compensation for the valu
able concessions granted them, have no right
to discriminate against good, capable, honest
and efficient employes merely because they
have seen fit ta Join organizations for their per
sonal benefit; therefore.
Whereas, It is claimed that a sumber of em
ployes of the street railway companies of this
city have been discharged from their positions
for no other reason except that they have be
come, members of certatn organizations which
have been organized for tho protection and wel
fare of the members thereof; and
And this board hereby requests the manage
ment of tho United Railroads cf San Francisco
and the striking employes to meet in confer

have resulted in the pending strike of the street

course in refusing the use of the Police De

in moving cars of private corporations, nnd in
announcing that th« Police Department shall

It is impossible for the company to discuss,
except with its employes, the business relations
of the company with its employes. Any re
quests you have to make as to wage* or hours
of labor the company is always ready te receive
and give thereto a fair and Just consideration.
Had . any such request been made* before you
quit work. I am satisfied it would have been
settled to our mutual satisfaction. But. as you
know, no request of. any kind was submitted to
the company by a single employe before tha
ceasation of the operation of the road on tha
morning of April 20. l»02.
I therefore suggest that, in . all fairness, you
return to work, then make such requests in re
gard to wages and hours of labor as you desire,
and thus give the company the. ordinary busi
ness opportunity of considering the matter.
In this consideration I will add that the com
pany does net consider as a .material element
the fact of your membership or non-member
ship In any associations of railway or other
employes. That is a matter of your individual
judgment with which the company has no con
cern. Yours truly. HORACE G. PLATT.

Ftaf that this morning a Sacramento-street
car had no difficulty In making a round trip
with two police officers aboard, whereas, when
these two officers were withdrawn, the carmen
declined, through personal fear, to proceed fur
ther with their work. This is but an illustra
tion of the condition existing on all of i t'M
lines. That 'the fears of the "men. are n/t
wholly groundless and that there is urgent a*id

You can readily appreciate the Inconvenience
to the traveling public which will be occa
sioned by the stoppage of streetcar traffic in
ban Francisco, and tte therefore respectfully
ask that you aid the several companies In the
discharge of the duties which they owe to the
public in the operation, of their several street
car lines. From the facts before us It Is per
fectly apparent that with proper police protec
tion the effects of the strike will be shortlived
and the several lines affected will soon resume
their normal condition. This protection, how
ever, to be adequate must Include the presence
on each car so. operated of one or more police
officers to Insure the personal safety of the
men in charge of *aid car. "We believe that
two policemen on each car. one in the front of
the car and one In the rear end. will be suffi
cient, although, of course, subsequent events
would determine Just what would be necessary
and of which you. of course, would be enabled
to Judge better than ourselves.
Captain George W. Wlttman, Chief of Police
Hall of Justice. San Francisco. — Sir: - A strike
on the lines of. the street railways, belonging to
the United Ralroads of San Francisco, but still
operated by the former owners thereof, to wit:
The Market Street . Hallway Company, Sutter
Street Railway Company, Sutro Railroad Com
pany and " the San Francisco and San Mateo
Electric Railway. Company, has made it diffi
cult to operate Hhe cars on those lines in the
absence of police protection tor the men operat
ing same. The companies above referred to
have sufHclent men to operate the cars upon
their respective lines providing the men thus
engaged are properly protected . from personal
harm. ' . ' '.
The following .letter was received by
Chief 'of Police. Wittman from the United
Railroads yesterday: \
COMPLAINS
OF;VIOLENGE
OF STRIKERS
Chief of Police Wlttman stated that,
thus far no tendancy toward violence had
been shown, and that there was no neces
sity for protection, other than that which
could be. amply afforded by the regular
police force. The question as to the right
of private detectives to carry [ weapons
was discussed, and the conclusion of the
board, after having consulted the Politi
cal Code, was that their privileges were
no greater than any other citizen's, unless
they were added to, in the regular way
by the Police Commissioners.
Superintendent Vining of the United
Railroads sent a communication request
ing that the privilege of carrying a con
cealed weapon be granted to one Samuel
H. Plnkerton,- who is to be employed as a
watchman of the company's property.
As Vining's office boy had brtfught the
communication^ and no one appeared to
urge that it be granted, the board ordered
Pinkerton to appear at the next regular
meeting and state his request in person.
At -yesterday's meeting of- the Police
Commission the matter : of retail drug
gists selling liquor for medicinal purposes
was put over for discussion until tho next
regular meeting. ' :
Officers Hostitter, O'Shay, Dougherty
and Herring were fine* for leaving theii
beats, and Officer Rooker will contribute
to the police fund for not making a report
of why ha was absent from his beat.
the present car strike has been
settled. The matter was brought
to the attention of the board by Mayor
Schmitz, who not only sent a communica
tion, but .was present to discuss the situa
tion and to define the stand he takes re
garding the arming of private citizens. .
AT a. meeting of the. Police
Commissioners I held J yesterday
afternoon at the Hall of Justice
it was decided to refuse appli
cations for permits to carry
concealed weapons until after

men are paid high wages in San Fran

from the. East would be only too glad
to come to California.
"How many strikes have you been con
nected with, Mr. Huntington?" was asked
"Ten;" was the : reply, Vand I never
lost ' one of ' them. The biggest was the
Newport News strike last year.. It lasted
six weeks, ; and 7000 men were thrown out
of employment." They all voted unani
mously; at ! last that - they wanted , to
come back to work. " I don't- believe in
granting concessions to men when they
are out. They should be made. while they
are working." ' ¦¦.
"What do you think th« result of this
strike will.be?" was asked.
' "When I was with the Market-street
Railway," he . said, - "Mr. Vinlng used to
tell | me that the trouble was that the
men used »Xo work by the hour, and he
bad difficulty in keeping them from work
ing too many hours. They knew that the
ionger; they worked the more. money they
r.iade, and it was hard to -keep them off
the cars." .
Although TJre'y L. Ford la the leading
representative of the Baltimore syndicate,
the old attorneys of the Market Street
Hallway are still assisting in legal mat
ters until the 1st of May. Chief Counsel
W. F. Herrin of the Southern Pacific has
been in many conferences with the direc
tors of the United Hauroads since the
strike commenced. In an interview he
stated that the company stood in no dan
ger of losing its franchises.' He said a
railroad company could not lose a fran
chise except in a case of willful non-op
eration.'. "When physical force is used
against a road to prevent the operation of
its system the company is not to blame.
He further explained that if a railroad
can fully demonstrate that . through no
fault of its own it is unable to run cars
a court will take a lenient view of th-i
matter. . . ¦',-:
H. E. Huntington was interviewed af
ter he Icft.the offices of the company yes
terday . afternoon and from hte remarks
it could be judged that he was simply
voicing the views of the directors of the
United Railroads. .-He says that the strike
was a great surprise to him, and though
he is no longer- connected with tne street
car systems in 'this city, he thought that
the men were perfectly with
their condition, j • . - ~ •- . .
Acting President Arthur Holland was
closeted nearly all day with General Man
ager Vbiins. He left the offices of the
company aoout 4 o'clock and hurried on
to Market street. He refused to make
any statement, his only remark being:
"We intend to run our cars as soon as
possible; in fact, as soon as we can g-jt
the men."
President Holland was very nervous and
showed great resentment toward the
newspaper artists who tried to take his
picture. He declined to pose for a pho
tograph, and held the lapel of hia over
coat over his" face every time a camera
was leveled at him.
¦ The United Railroads have one street
car line operating, which has been un
affected, by the strike- This is the old
horse-car line that runs from Montgom
ery and California streets to the ferries.
There are two horse-cars - on this lin^,
and since the strike -the horse-cars have
been crowded on every trip. Superintend
ent'of-Construction H. H. 'Lynch has
charge of this line, and he was in a very
happy mood yesterday to think that this
road had been given the overlook by the
union car men. .
HOLLAND WILL NOT TALK.
Thus $50 has to belaid out by all the men
before they go to work.

As the days pass the necessity for
transportation by wagon becomes more
apparent. ; The owners of the vehicles are
earning good money and there is none
who is not inclined to wish them success
in their enterprise. Meanwhile- the out
side residents are wondering how long the
strike will last and just how long they
must be • bundled . about in springless
wagons or walk. .
The vehicles which did the most busi
ness were those provided" with-.loud
voiced fellows who shouted through mega
phones that their teams were the best on
the street. One lusty chap yelled con
tinuall" "Here's the only palace car. on
the line; reserve your seats in time!" An
other informed the waiting puolic that
his "Pullman would start for Twenty
fourth and Valencia streets in ten min
utes." Each vehicle bore rudely painted
signs, indicating its destination and stat
ing the amount of the fare to be paid in
return for the. service rendered. This
was paid .without protest, the sentiment
being that the advanced rates were rea
sonable and just.
1 he spectacles that greeted pedestrians
throughout the day were not devoid of
interest. To the majority of the people
the sights were unusual and therefore
novel. To those who were compelled to
tramp to and from -their homes in the
absence of suitable conveyances, the ex
perience was one fraught .with discom
fort. Men had to get up by candle light
and leave their homes before dawn in or
der to report for duty three miles away at
7 a, m. -Many men ¦ remained, "^downtown
all night in order to be on haad early in
the morning, ¦ their old-time "excuse that
they missed the last car standing them -in
good stead when matutinal explanations
were in order. ¦' * . ¦ ks ;-¦¦ ¦ i .,
Every old rattle-trap of. -a wagon in the
city and many attenuated specimens: of
horseflesh were in use along Market
street. These vehicles were provided
chairs and cloth-covered seats and pre
sented a very inviting aspect to the resi
dent who had to cover a trifle of twenty
blocks or so in order to reach his home.
Gaily dressed women did not disdain to
ride in trucks drawn by four horses, nor
did gentlemen with plug hats refuse to ac
cept seats in express wagons at 10 cents
a trip. Social distinction and forms were
forgotten for the time^nd all seemed to
enjoy the occasion as a picnic. Every
body smiled, and accepted the discomforts
of the hastily improvised accommodations
as a matter of course. The passengers
declined to become angry at anything, all
declaring that if they arrived home in
comparative safety they would regard the
experience of the; day as worthy of • re
membrance as long as they lived. ¦
To the residents in the outskiHu. of the
city the inauguration of the strike/was ji
very serious matter, for it involved un?
usually early rising and the exercise of
the pedal extremities to' a degree hitherto
unknown. Necessity is the mother of in
vencion. and it is not surprising, therefore,
that expressmen . and others; who had
wagons and horses lying around loose
concluded to press them ' into service.
That this was done was quite apparent to
any one walking along the main thor
oughfares after 6 p. m.
-,, v," latter '70's, when ox teams were
used in/transporting passengers from the
Palace Hotel to the, territory beyond the
Yerba Buena • Cemetery, on which, the
City Hall now stands. But the gentleman
with the reminiscences was practically
forg-Jtten in the popular excitement 'at
tending the strike developments.
