WILLING TO COMPROMISE.
The Owners of the Carrie Furnace Offer
Their Men nm Advance.

The Owners of the Carrie Furnace Offer
Their Men nm Advance.
The owners Of the Carrie Furnace have
made overtures to the strikers to settle the
matter; but the employees say it is a scheme
to catch them, and refuse. The company
agrees to pay the men on No. furnace what
they ask, but says nothing about No. 2 fur
mace. The latter is new one, and has 20
foot bosh, while the other has but an 1S-foot
bosh. The one scale cannot in justice be
applied to both furnaces.
The men are determined and say they will
allow no one to 60 to work until an agree
ment abour both furnaces is made. They
offered no resistance to the arrest of some
of the strikers yesterday, and declare they
will not interfere with the law. Their con-
dition, they declare, has made them desper-
ate, and they will not brook outside inter-
ference.

AGITATING FOR APO.
Alleghenians Again Clamoring for
a Government Building,
APPEAL TO CONGRESSMAN BAYNE.
An Annual Business of Half Million Used
as an Argument,
MAYOR PEARSON MOVES IN THE MATTER

The Iong-dormant scheme o. a new Gov
srnment building for Allegheny City has
taken new life within the last few days.
Mayor Pearson, in response to urgent re-
quests from prominent citizens, will wait
upon Colonel Thos. M. Bayne on Monday
for the purpose of consulting with the rep
resentative of the Allegheny district in
Congress as to the proper step to be taken to
secure concerted action upon the matter
prior to the meeting of Congress in October
next.
1t is confidently believed by Alleghenians
that the Bayne-Quay coalition will have
enough influence with the Congressional
Committee on Appropriations to secure a
sum amply adequate for the proper pro-
vision Of Government building betting
the importance of Allegheny as a city and
as postal branch of the United States mail
service. Mayor Pearson has been requested
to call public meeting to consider the
situation, but stated last night that he had
decided to consult Colonel Bayne before
taking any action, as the upholding of
Artemrs Wards ideas about ''the old flag
and an appropriation" has from time i'm
memorial been one of the constituent cares
of the local Congressman. It is certain,
however, that an active reagitation of the
question will be begun within a few days.
Of the former efforts in this line, the work
of special committee appointed jointly by
Mayor Pearson and City Councils in the
early part of last year. was the most ener-
petic. and IL is believed thai failnre IN

The committee of last year embraced the
cream of Allegheny business men. Mr..
John II. Hampton was chairman, and Rob
ers Dilworth was secretary, and consider
able amount of enthusiasm was engendered
at the several'meetings. Among those who
went to Washington to urge Allegheny's
claims were the following gentlemen: Post
master Swan, james b. Scott, james L.
Graham, Samuel Watson, M. Harman,
Arthur Kennedy, John A. Myler, E.
Werthsimer, james Mcfarland. w. D.
Moore, Julius Groetzinger, William s.
Mckinney, and the late William Semple
and James E. Grow. So certain was the
public that some tangible result would be
attained, that very heated controversy
arose as to the most expedient site for the
new building, bat the refusal OF Congress to
make an appropriation put damper upon
the project.
Mayor Pearson was seen last night, and
said: THE city not only needs the 41x30

A MARKET HOUSE GALLERY.
Scheme to Dispose of Allegheny Sidewalk
Vender Nuisance.

Vender Nuisance.
An Allegheny official has fathered a
scheme to remove from the sidewalks about
the market house the army of small vend-
ers which obstructs the passage OF pedestri-
ans on market days and makes it work of
great difficulty to reach the inside of the
building.
His idea is to utilize the interior of the
building for gallery, upon which the small
wares may be sold. Running clear around
the building are series of iron posts amply
strong enough to sustain a substantial gal
lery, and there is said to be enough space in
the way Of heighth. Steps and approaches
could be easily put in, and the lower floor
thus relieved of large number of huck-
sters. The plan will be presented at the
next meeting of the Market Committee.

Cottage suffrage Meeting.

The exercises of the Cottage Suffrage
meeting held yesterday were varied and
interesting. The society, or association
as it will henceforth regard itself, starts
on a new year with the same faithful
leader, and, with but few exceptions, the
same familiar, steadfast countenances.
Instead of the usual annual Grafton, there
was short written address by the Presi-
dent. Though short, it was suggestive
and calculated to hearten and incite a
still more earnest endeavor those pri-
vileged to listen to her words. An
article estitled "Woman's Sphere" was
read. 1t was written in reply to an
article in the Tribune by Mrs. Holmes.
The sentiments expressed therein gave
general satisfaction.
Mrs. DIR. Urmy read pretty sketch OF
that remarkable colored woman, So
journer Truth. 1t appears that she was
not afraid to speak her mind, no matter
what the occasion or who the audience !:
Den dey talk bout dis ting in de head
what dis dey call it?' intellect"
whispered some one. "Dat's it honey.
What's dat got to do with woman's
rights, or nigea's rights? If my cup
won't hold but pint, and yours holds a
quart, wouldn't yo' be mean not to let
me have my little half measure full 2"
This bit of logic came in reply
to the argument of minister
who claimed superior rights and privi-
leges for man on the ground of superior
intellect. There was good deal of dis
cussion relating to Major Furrey ey,-his
character and work es Police Commits
sioner. One member said she had care
fully read all the doings OF the Council
to learn, if possible, why he was removed.
Though others had likewise given the
matter attention, no discovery as to why's
and wherefores were forthcoming. 1t
was the opinion of all present that he had
proved an exceptionally wise and thor
ough-going officer.

THE NEW CITY HALL.
At Is Being Pushed Forward Quite
Rapidly.


The apportionment of the new City
Hall is likely to cause some trouble
when the building has been completed.
Since the hall was first designed the city
has grown considerably, and the new
Charter has gone into effect, creating
more officers. There was no provision
made in the designs of the new City Hall
for an increase in the number of city
officers, and those who we're created by
the new Charter and the new Council
will have to be provided with offices.
To do this, some of the rooms which
were laid off for other departments will
have to be turned over to the new officers,
and until an addition can be built the
new City Hall will be considerably
crowded. The Board of Education,
which should be accommodated
with rooms there, now finds itself
left out in the arrangement, and it is
possible that the attic will have to be
utilized. The contractor for the hall
states that the building will be handed
over in August. The carpenters are now
at work in the third story, and the work
was resumed on the tower yesterday.
The stone work at the Fort street en-
trance is being put in place, and all the
plum bing will be completed shortly.

Industrial Exhibit.

The Board of Managers of the Indus
trial Exhibition met yesterday morning
at the rooms of the Chamber of Com
merce. This organization has now in
corporated, and is preparing to open its
lists for subscription to the stock as soor
as possible. The time was spent at the
meeting yesterday morning in listening
to the report of the Committee on By
laws and ia discussing the pro-
visions under which it was pro-
posed to conduct the organization.
The work as far as completed was re-
ferred to an attorney for further revision,
and the Board decided to meet again to-
morrow to 60 on with the work.
Nothing has been published about the
project of the Industrial Exposition for
some time, but it must not be supposed
that the interest Of those who are push
ing the scheme has tagged in any way.
The work of incorporation has consumed
a good deal of time, but when it is en-
tirely finished the Board will come be-
fore the public with definite statement
of it's plans.

A NEW FIRM.
mullen, Bluest & Co.'s Store oI
First street Opened.

Mullen, BlueSt & Co.'s Store on
First Street Opened.
Yesterday afternoon the magnificent
store of Messrs. Mullen, Bluett & Com
pany was thrown open to the public. 1t
is situated on the northwest corner OF
Spring and First streets, in the premises
formerly occupied by Messrs. Bluett 4
Sullivan. Mr.. Mullen, who, since
1856, has successfully run q
large wholesale clothing establishment
in Chicago, came to Los Angeles about q
year ago in search of health, and liked
the surroundings so much that he de-
cided to establish himself in business
here, When the dissolution of partner
ship between Messrs. Bluett & Sui
livan took place he saw his
chance, and with his son as a junior
partner. bought into the house. Bring
ing his vast experience into play. he has
started out the new firm in a manner
that augurs success. The establish
ment is fitted up most elaborately, hav-
ing been decorated by the well-known
artists, Messrs. Swartz and Whomes.
Large windows have been cut into what
was hitherto blind wall on First street,
and the store is splendidly
lighted and ventilated. The sales
rooms comprise an aggregate of more than
6 900 square feet Of surface and contain
ABOUT $50, 900 worth of goods. The prin-
cipal department is on the ground floor,
on which is fitted eighteen large tables,
covered to the depth OF two feet with fine
clothing of the latest styles and
patterns. The basement is also fitted
up as saleroom, and is lighted
| by sixteen jets of incandescent
| lights equal in capacity to two arc elec-
tric lights. A full line of clothing and
gentlemen's outftting is carried, and the
articles are not only good, but are cheap,
and bargains can be obtained that
can rival anything on the Pa.
cific Coast. The show windows and
main salesrooms are dressed in
good style, handsome floral decorations
adding big effect to the artistic work OF
the window-dressers The north window
contains an elegant line of the very latest
designs in gentlemen's furnishings, and
the south window is devoted to suits OF
the best style and pattern. A large
number of persons inspected the prem
ises yesterday, and, judging by their
comments of satisfaction, the success oil
| the new house is assured.

THE MEXICAN SOLDIERS.
They are to be Quartered at Ense-
NADIA Garrison.

naud GaFrls0n.
The detachment of Mexican soldiers
who arrived in this city late on Monday
night from Mexico, left on the morning
train, yesterday, for San Diego, from
which place they will be taken by
steamer to Ensenada. The party con-
sists of 80 rank and file, officers,
and 40 women, the wives of the soldiers.
The soldiers are members of the corps
d'eite of the City Of Mexico and
are fine-looking set of men. Ad-
iutant General Volkmer, U. s. A.,
was present at the depot in his
full regimentals to receive the officers
according to international courtesy, and
an adjournment was taken to Landlord
Reinhardt's cosy hotel, where pleasant
time was experienced. The troops are
being sent through to strengthen the
garrison at Ensenads and, according to
the law of nations, permission had to be
obtained for them to cross the United
States territory. The railroad officials
have received orders to send them
through to their destination without
delay.
The manner in which the rank and
file of the regular Mexican Infantry is
obtained may not be generally known.
In the Gland of God and liberty" when
man is convicted of a penitentiary
offence, he is sentenced to so many
years in the army instead of being ship
ped off to prison. AS result of this,
the army is consequently not regarded as
q very enobling profession. The Corps
d'Elite consists however of picked men
obtained from the ranks of honorable
citizens, and therefore occupies quite a
different standing.

Police Matters.

The Chief of Police continues to work
at the organization of his force notwith-
standing that he is very uncertain about
whether his own head will remain very
long on his shoulders, and quite in the
dark as to how his force will ultimately
be made up. One man resigned yestsr-
day, Bert Smith, the brother Of
the Constable Fred Smith. This
will make room for some good
special to slip in. Definite and final
appointments were made yesterday
as follows: Sergeants-First, ]. R.

any way, and, if the fates are propitious,
for week or more.

off the Board. The opinion is generally
expressed that there is no wish for the
removal of Chief Burns, low that he has
