SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 81.
Workingmen, TO the number of
about 500, assembled in front of the
Free Labor Exchange, on O'Fsrreli
street this morning, to expr-~> their
dissaIi>facton with Zeebandellar, the
manager of the Exchange. WheIlock
and one or two Others addressed the
crowd briefly, and a committee was
appointed. who waited upon Man or
Bryant, and presented their grievance
to his consideration. They alleged
that Zeehandeilar had abused his trust,
and vas conducting the Exchange IN
his own interest; that in addition To
hts salary, of $50 per month. he was
in the habit OF turning applicants I'VE
to his W private emf loy ment ag-n
cy, and collec ing fe-s from them. a
number of other charges of a general
nature were preferred against him.
The Mayer informed the committee
that while he did not consider Z-ehan-
dellar the right man in the right place,
he had nothing To do with the matter;
hat the Free Labor Exchange was or
gan'ztd by private parties, aud he re-
commended the COMMITTEES 10 wait on

net: d. o. Mills, the President of the
Bank Of California, has given the Presi-

Of Chinese labor. 1t likes it. CAM

Mills has championed the cause. He

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 81.
The Workingtnen's Committee, after
waiting upon Mavor Bryant to day,
proceeded to the Office Of Vim. Holli-,
To whom they had been referred by the
Mayor. In anticipation OF their visit.
MIR. Hollis had prepared a written re-
ply to their demand for the removal OF
Zeehandellar, stating, in effect, that
the Free Labor Exchange had been
organized by private subscription,
and the promoters of The en-
terprise would not permit any
dictstion: that the managers had APP
pointed Zeehandellar. believing him \
suitable man, and were thus far salts
fisd with his services; ihey, however,
admitted the faliibilitv of human iudg
ment. and would fully investigate any
charges preferred against him by re-
sp"n>ible parties, and If found guilty
of malfeasauce or Incompetence they
would discharge him. The labor top
les were discussed at some length in
Mr.. Hollis room: that gentleman gave
the committee assurance thai the men
who had subscribed to establish a Free
Labor Exchange, We're in sympathy
with the working paopIe. and would
do all that was in their power tn assist
the unemployed. The members OF the
committee We're courteous and pleas
in their demeanor. The Free
Labor Exchange has just finished its
first months operations. The report
OF the superintendent shows that 233
men and l3l women have found EN-
ployment through the medium uf the
Exchange since It's establishment.

The Loss by Strikes.

The loss by strikes and obstruction
to business for five days on the five
trunk lines of railway, including de-
struction Of property Of the Balti-
more and Ohio and Pennsylvania
Railroads, is estimated at S26, $50, 000I
The New York JOmptdl Of Commerce
reaches the result in this wise Ia
king as basis the cost to the rail
roads resulting from the suspension of
traffic, an average of $4,000 per day
to each Of the five makes the total of
5000, 900: add $4,000 as a low calcu.
latiOn for losses by interruption of
other roads, and the total is $3.50, 900
per day, or 81 $50, 600 for the five days
suspension. The losses sustained by
the Pennsylvania at Pittsburg and
on the line between that city and
Harrisburg are calculated at 100000
600. Half that amount would scarce
ly cover the cost Of property destroy
ell on the Baltimore and Ohio, and it
i, likely that Sl0,000,0O0 would ap-
proXimate the losses of railroad prop
erty other than those which have
been enumerated. This makes to-
tai of $26, 250,OOO The losses sus.
tanned by the community at large
are almost incalcuable, e.rs+~aei4sg
the destruction of perishable freight
and live stock, the detention of pas
sengers, the support Of militia and
special officers summoned to keep
the peace, inconvenience attending
tardy mails, increased cost Of living
consequent upon the advance in pri-
ces of provisions, augmented taxa
ton, and perhaps the bankruptcy of
Of corporations which might other
Wiss have been averted.

Unthe other hand, Wilkins, among
all the people, both Democrats and
Republicans, has q thoroughly eX-
cellent reputation as worthy and
reliable citizen. He has been Re-
publican, but at least until recently
has had no concern in party feudS.
He was made Collector by President
Grant without any personal solicita-
ton. The appointment cameto him.
He did not seek it. He is alleged to
have been put in office by some sort
of bargain between Fulton, Creswell
and Grant, by which it was under
stood that his commission was to be
surrendered upon the expiration of
Grants term.
This bargain is asserted by Fulton
and Thomas, and denied by Grant
and CresweIl but if it existed, it
seems on all sides to be conceded that
it was unknown to wilkins and if
it existed, it everywhere appears as a
bargain whose object, single and un-
mixed, was party efficiency to be
secured by the reconciliation of party
leaders who had quarrelled; and
when this bargain was thrust upon
Hayes as something by which his
action ought to he constrained, how
did he behave? Did he turn with
contempt from the man who urged
it, or lead him out by the ear from
his presence?
Alas, no! He treated him with
respect and cOmplaisance, and at
once gave out that upon the question
of the existence of this bargain utter
ly abominable in the view of Re.
former) his decision of the Baltimore
Collectorship would finally hinge.
Until this, wilkins seems to have
been attending TRANQUILITY to the bust
ness of his office in the comfortable
conviction that the Presidents civil
service notions and his own character
and conduct were his abundant pro-
lection. But now the fight waXed
hot. Evidence about the supposed
bargain was industriously submit
ted.
A dispatch was sent to Gen. Grant
who was in England, to ascertain
what he had to say upon the subject
and Mr.. Fulton addressed his note
to the President, in which he charg-
ed wilkins with being a "more
persistent disorganizer than his pre-
decessor, Booth" and assured the
President that if he would promptly
make the appointments for Mary
land suggested to him by Mr., Thomas
and himself sit would electrify the
whole State" and he promised him
