sard :t*at any of its members who desired to be

individually for employment. We offered, bow

V/o^jf-yUy struck last May, as admitted by tho
rVpre*entrtivfs. of labor, without offering the

. r iii : W]ien and as they did, it was essential to the
'industrial. : •peace of this community and to the
«,'iorev«.bt unionism Itself that organised labor
siotihl- . condemn and not support a strike which
bad t**a wrongfully and improperly called.

was- not -engaged in a fight with any one; that it

•w> fui'.r ezplauied that. In our judgment, the
position'. of ;h» United Railmada wan essential to
toe ' jwa.ee jand prosperity of tWs city, 'and that
the \u25a0.leaders-. of organised labor should unite with
•\u25a0vety.fltdicn of This- community la the effort to
demoostrat*' to the world that any man could
wivjr la San .Francisco without fear and without
eorectanr that without the recognition of the
fundamental 'principles of industrial freedom no
comsnrmity could permanently prosper; • that the
preservation of law and order, the recognition of
industrial. liberty, the freedom of employer and 1
••mploye. -were essential to the prosperity, of the
!aborlnjr. Clauses themselves, as well as- to the
prosperity of the merchants, the bankers and all
other clajfses of citizens.
\u25a0 These two interviews with leaders of organixed
labor ...have helped to clarify the situation: In
Kplit'of the admission that the carmen's union
was'wttmt is striking, the United Railroad* Is
threatened with the opposition of organized labor
nr.iess -ft bows to its dictation and again recog
r.:z»h the carmen's union. To force this recogni
tion.organized labor threatens, through its leail
»Ts..-.,ttt combine its capital, through assessments
upon tb? Individual members of the unions, the
i-kiil of iti leaden and the acts of Its members.

this -''coßmunlty.
/ STA.TEMEXT OP COMMITTEE
; Following is the statement issued
late last night by the ways and means
<omnlittee of the strike campaign or
ganization, representing, organized - la
ht>t of Sari Francisco:
' At the close of the meetlsr with the officers
of- the United Railroads on Friday -last it was
agreed that no statement as to what' had taken
place In: that meeting was to be published or
reported beyond that statement (riven out by
the. way* and means committee and the railroad
officials there present.
The parties to the raeetln* had listened to i
atatement from Mr. Calhoun, in which be main
tained: .'\u25a0 ;«".;\u25a0
First, that the strike of the carmen's 'onion
<tra« part of a conspiracy to destroy his personal
honor and. to deprive him of bis property.
Second, that the strike had been called la vio
lation of. the laws of the onion, which provided
that before any strike could be voted an offer
to trb! lrate should be made.
Third, Mr. Mabon, cxand president of the car
men's union, was in San Francisco immediately
after the strike was declared, but failed to call
upon Mr. Calhoun, *&d Instead Issued a state
ment to ; tbe press on general lines upholding
tw action of tbt local.
fourth, that prior to Use strike, in a meetla;
ar'th* mayor's office.- be, Mr.-- Calfaonn, bad
offered arbitration and that the carmen's com
mittee had refused. IMl"*flVsWa9Ql
Baciaa; bis argument opon the foregoing . »lir
satlon. • Mr. Calhotxn requested tbe committee
ro tCTeetijrate and if they foond tbe same to Ibe
true to eonderan * tbe • carmen's \u25a0 onion ; to - with
draw from them tbe support of organized* labor
and toe. public, thereby in* his opinion: ending
the -struggle.
He farther stated that be never would deal
rrith local 205 of the rarmr&'B union; that he
••crald admit \u25a0 into bis service members of the
union as individuals as he . might require ' them
and agaiast wbom be had no complaints. Such
mea would retain their ratings, be said.
Tbe committee stated that to do this no con
ference would be needed; no arrangements would
be- p(rr> stiry. An unconditional surrender needs
no \u25a0 treaty of" peace.- Further, ' the. proposition
was out of the question unless the committee
*bo,ald find that tbe charges made. by Mr. Cal
houn were true • and tbe . strike . corrnptly en
tered, into.' '*s&&&Bl3&& . - • \u25a0 \u25a0\u25a0;.'••\u25a0-
Cpos the closest possible scrutiny " the . com
mittee found that Mabon had Endeavored to get
into communication with Mr. Calhoun: that the
arbitration ore-red bad not been declined, ' but
rbat tbe conditions attached .= thereto had > been
rejected and that-, tbe charges that the .unions
had ' conspired against Mr. Calhoun ( to ' deprive
toe company ;of - its properties - were - absolutely,
without any foundation In fact.
SHOULD HAVE ARBITRATED
\u25a0 It; remained therefor* • a somewhat technical
violation' of toe organization's': laws,' and 'tbe
r-om mi ttee ' freely admitted that when arbitra
tion had "been offered it - should have been ae
ettiled and conditions attached thereto should
hare b^ea discussed later, tberpby avoiding . a
rupture c* the relations then existing ' between
the company and the union.- ..--f ~. «
The cocimittee informed the gentlemen repre
senting tho railroad that \u25a0 the, 'tvronjf committed
by the organisation of rarmon whs not Mich as
to require the annihilation* of the union Itself.
We informed Calhonn- that we could- not find -on
the part of the ;<>ld carmen/ or the ' of fielalß' Of
the union any action that had a corrupt 'motive,
and that we did' not expect that he would hold
tbe union In-main part -- responsible for the
possibility of : corruption .in the younger mem
bership, considerlnc that t he .union ; bad jw > con
trot orer who should be taken Into the company' a
serrlce and. must accept ouch .'men as . were
selected and tent by tbe company. -
The entire committee urped -that the whole
subject; metier be referred to a board of . arbi
tration and xre pnsranteed on the part -of organ
ized idbor in . v un Francisco „ that "any award
renflered would, be faithfully, and loyally. liTed
up to, the organized labor •of tb£ city under
taking to stand sponsor f or : the carmen's con
duct in these matters.
We; urged us strongly as we knew how that
the'- enormous damajre which wonld: be done . to
the 'city, esperlnUy to the ; retail merchant class,
would be prerented if our \u25a0 proposition to arbl- :
trate were accepted. We urged; that "in the
interests of the whole people this struggle ought
to be ended .by an arraocement ; which .would
be fair to all.
Mr. Caltoutt on behalf of the United ' Rail
roads met this proposition, with a. firm refusal.
He claimed that the* only ' thine to be done wai
to destroy the carmen'B .union and ..to ; publish
to the- whole world that this ;. had been don?
because. tbe carmen were in the, wrong and corr
rupt. He wanted to publish' to tho world that
henceforth . in . San Francisco •; he : might work
whom be pleased at euch hours ' and -.wages a*
he pleased without . In " any way being - molested
by other men. '. , °. - " » ; • . ••"\u25a0.'
We met this by stating 'that no one- denied
or could deny the peacefulness :o: of -the city,', but
tbe statement was Bltojwthw, too much . Ukf the
general attack upon organized la»»or by the
<^tirens* alliance. We. had hoped, that Mr.
Calhonn would not ' embrace ' the opportunity to
become the leader of the antlunlon forces . of
this community, but that if he desired to take,
that position -or act in such a way as to make
himself and the company subject to . each
charge." .we should be rery much pained. ' ; The
responsibility would be upon him.
To this Mr. Calhoun stated that, of course,
he was prepared to assume- the full responsi
bility of any thought or any action that l>e
might take, or any word that he might speak.
He then reiterated his former statement that
he would nerer deal with the carmen's union;
that the best he would do.ai? far as these men
were ' concerned was to accept such men. as he
had places for c* Individual*.
X- member of the committee strongly urged
that Mr. Calhoun take a little time to consider
the . proposition. He Bald that there was no
further consideration needed, that bis mind was
fully made up and that ho would not be per
suaded or driven from the position which he had
assumed. . ; .
This committee, finding its proposal to arbi
trate absolutely refused by Sir. Calnoun, could
see no reason for any further conference. When
about to depart tbe question was raised -as to.
what to give the newspapers and we stated
that the trades unions and the public generally
of this city had a right to know the -truth, and
we deemed It our duty to state the truth with
out fear or favor and that we should do so:
whereupon Mr. Calhoun . said that 6uch would
probably be tbe best course to pursue. Your.s
rcsi^ctfully, .P. H. MCCARTHY.

WILL. RIDE OX- THE CARS
SOUTH SAX FRANCISCO, July 3.-^-
Practically the eritlre number of union
mechanics anji sympathizers as repre-
Eented by the fraternal organizations
and citizens' committee, together with
tbe leading capitalists of the board of
trade, by unanimous vote at a mass
meeting last night decided to throw oft
the yoke imposed by the carmen's union

Death of N. O. Rideout
Makes Surety /Insufficient
: The death of N. O. Rideout, who was
one of the .bondsmen for Frank G.
Drum, indicted in connection with the
gas rate bribery, will necessitate the
appearance of Drum in court- within a
few days, to arrange for a. continuance
of his surety. Rideout's .death leaves
Drum with but one bondsman,'" and
while the prosecution will not demand
a change in his bonds within an un
reasonable time, it .will insist; that
steps be taken within a' few days, to
make the. bonds conform with the legal
requirements.
' Under- the statutes the executors, of
a • bondsman can be., held for. any acts
occurring prior to the bondman's death,
but not for developments * afterward
unless the bond is made to specifically
name the bondsman and his heirs. .No
attention has yet been given the , mat
ter by the'prosecution, but unless Drum
arranges his surety of Tiis own 1 accord
within a few days steps -will be taken

CONTINUANCE GRANTED
Schmitz did not stop his observations
until Judge Dunne 1 entered "the court

trict Attorney Heney and Charles VWV
Cobb weresout of town It -was not pos

asked for a continuance until Saturday
that the papers might be - delivered.
Judge Dunne suggested Tuesday morn
Ing, and that date was agreed, upon.
So Schmltz did not plead to the two
charges yesterday. • X
Charles H. Fairall, for Schmitz, stated
that it was the intention of the defense
to file -a- bill of exceptions'<on Monday
for the appeal from conviction- in .the

Barrett, representing a- handful of, de

"There is no difficulty about tho

for -cars ..to" be run by cable or horsj
power,, and these franchises later were j
transferred with the- lines, to the .Unite.l
Itailroads. Last year the traction com
pany was of the opinion that a special
permit from the supervisors was neces
sary to allow it to install the trolley!
system,, but apparently the bundle of I
indictments recently filed against, the j
officials of .the " company -has . altered I
their. process of reasoning.
I The question was a disputed one for
some time- in -San- Francisco -and was j
referred to the city attorney by sue- j
ceeding, boards of supervisors. The flr^st ;
exhaustive" opinion on the subject was j
written by Franklin K. Lane, in which j
the nature of the old franchises was 1
discussed and the ruling made that aj
special ; permit / was necessary for the j
installation . of the trolley system. This
ruling was subsequently concurred In
by r City. Attorney Long and more re
cently^ by City Attorney Burke.!-.- /
'\u25a0_ \u0084 Notwithstanding,., these adverse rul
ings precedents are cited by those who
are prepared to support the contentions
of the;- United, Bailroada.iThey - say that
the problem *r£sol>-.e> lq**l* :. into - . . the
question.' "If ; a r franchisees -granted n
street railway company tQ ope rate, cars
propelled "by. horse or "cabled ; does it
also| grant? the right* tp^use any;-;other
power ;. which; may -liters be discovered
during the life, of .the. franchise?" For
the United Railroads it i 3 contended
that the must' be^ answered- in"
theTafflrth'ative.
It is' coriteridod that when the qity
granted the. franchises in the seventies
It granted, the right, to use all undis
covered motive power, which would
have been named in ; the franchise had
it; been discovered at the time of the
original grant. , . , . . >. .....
..., '"If such la^the-law," said one of the
attorneys who' is opposing the graft
prosecutors, "there could 'have been no
crime; committed .when ,a^ fee> was paid
to .Abe Ruef In order to ; be allowed
to* do .that , '.which the company -had a
lawful right to do! without: any addi
tional act by the municipal legislature."
.Among the precedents cited was the
case " of . the Bell/ telephone company
against. the Montreal street railway
company,^ decided in Quebec. The \u25a0 de
[cisionin this case is reported as fol-
I lows in an authoritative volume:
"Where the. legislative act authorizes
a railway .to run Its cars . with motive
| power produced by steam, caloric, com
pressed air^or by any means :or, ma
chinery whatever, , the court held that
such act authorized' it to operate > its
cars by electricity, although at the time
of .the passage ' of the act "'electricity
wasfhot known as a" motive* power for
street" railways." :.:'.
It' will" be held that, the words "by
cable -or horsepower" in;. the" original
franchises -in San" Francisco were lllus
trative'and not limiting In their nature.
1 . , In.; support of ! this. claim the case of
| the street "railway "of ' Paterson, : X. J.,
against Grundy is cited. In this case
the court said: :\
C"lt%will hot be* presumed that the
: legislature intended . to ' limit the - com
panies to systems in use at the time
when the" act was passed, it" being for
the ; public advantage to :: allow street
railway: companiesto perfect their sys
tems "In accordance ; with." advances in
scientific discovery."
" In the of . Bunker; agulnst Hart.

that' the; words "horse ajid steam]rail
roads" were' illustrative and not words
