Acker man Fined.

Louis Ackerman was on trial before
Police Judge Owens yesterday for dis
turbing the peace. The complaining
witness, Mr.. VIM. Low testified that he
heard Ackerman use profane and abusive
language when he entered the house on
Friday evening last, and then he started
to break up the furniture and assault his
wife. Witness also stated that he heard a
pistol shot which he thought was
fred in Ackerman's rooms: Mr..
Lows apartments are separated from
those occupied by Alderman by
a thin board partition through
which almost every sound can be heard.
Mrs. Low corroborated her husbands
testimony. Mrs. Alderman was put on
the stand and testified that her husband
had made fuss that evening, but took
all the blame Of the affair upon herself.
A number of witnesses testified as to
Ackerman's good character and habits.
The testimony given by Mrs. Alderman
Yesterday was directly opposite to the
story related by her immediately after
the disturbance, and had she told that
story. Alderman would have stood fail
chance Of spending few months in the
County Jail. As it was, he got of with
the nominal fine of $40.

a Mixed Case.

A couple of weeks ago a man who
called himself John Farris complained
at the Police Station that he had beer
rob oed by three men. Tne officers were
put to work on the case, and Farris was
detained as a witness for while and
afterwards released. He turned up agair
at the station on Thursday evening in
charge OF Officer Whaling, who found
him intoxicated aud going about from
place to place to pawn mis- clothes. He
was kept in the City Prison un.
til this morning, when he was
allowed to go, and took his
satchel OF clothing with him. The
next heard of him WAS at the Santa Fe
depot, where he was accused by George
d. Hubbell OF robbing him. Officer
Dunn brought both the men to the
station, and booked Farris for robbery.
When searched several pawn tickets
were found in his pockets, which called
for an amount about equal to what he
had with him. From eye-witnesses OF
the affray which took place between the
men it was learned that Hubbell at
tempted to rob Farris, and that Farris
knocked him down. The charge was
then changed to disturbing the peace,
and both men were locked up. 1t is very
likely, however, that Hubbell will have
to answer to charge of robbery.

John H. Russell, manager of the Rus.

Throughout the United States as the best
organizer in his particular line of busi-
ness in this country. He has been con.
nected with the theatrical business for
twenty years, and has been associated
with the greatest successes the American
stage has known in that time, not only
in farce comedy, but in opera, melo.
drama and burlesaue. He has the con-
fidence also of the entire management of
the country, because he has never been
known to be associated with bad
show.
Everybody in the country talks about
the detective in The City Directory. 1t

Last night Miss Mather delighted a
very large and intelligent audience by
her exquisite portrayal of "Rosslind" in
As You Like 1t. In many respects she
was an ideal "Rosalind," very captivst-
ing in doublet and hose, and the more
80 because of the fine vein of gentle
womanhood which shone everywhere
through the thin disguise. In the faint
ing scene at the sight of "Orlando's"
blood she was particularly charming.
Her support was good, Mr. Studley doing
the melancholy Jacques" very we'll,
and Harry Eytinge making an acceptable
"Touchstone. Miss Berrell was much
too heavy in avordurois for Audrey"
Today will be a great .Mather day
The matinee will be devoted to Romeo

1t requires versatile talent indeed to
play the roles of Outlet" "Rosalind," !"

THE sTONECUTTERs' STRIKE
Employers Lay Down Their Posi-
ton and Declare Their Rights.

Employers Lay Down Their Posi-
ton and Declare Their Rights.
At special meeting of the contractors
and builders board of trade, held in
their rooms, Chamber of Commerce,
yesterday. the following preamble and
resolutions were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The Stonecutters' Union
some time since decreed that from and
after June eight hours should cOnsti-
tute days work, and that all members
of this union should refuse to work for
less than fifty (50) cents per hour; and
Whereas, Said union has by resolu-
ton and written notice to the several
employing stOnecutters of the city,
threatened said employers with various
fines as penalty in case said employ
ers should hire any stOnecutters for
less sum or pay any stOnecutter less
than fifty (50) cents per hour, whether
such stonecutter was good and COM
petent workman or not; and
Whereas, Said employers feeling that
the aforesaid demands were unreasOna-
bic, had agreed among themselves and
with each other, and so notified the
union that they were willing to pay
competent and skilled wOrkmen 50 cents
per hour, and to pay others according to
their worth and ability, whereupon said
union, by its officers and members, Or
dered and Immediately entered upon
general strike; and
Whereas, The employers then, by
notice duly posted in their several yards,
notified all interested that they would
thenceforth hire whom they would,
whether members of union or not, and
admit of no authority in their yards but
their own, and would pay 6rst-class
men only IS cents per hour, and others
according to their value and skill; and
Whereas, The striking employees be-
fore mentioned have ever since the
above time remained out on strike, and
are seeking in various ways to intimi-
date and to deter from working many
competent stonecutters who are seek
ing, and but for said intimidation.
would gladly take employment from
the term offered by the latter; Therefore
be it =
0ReSolved, By the members of the Con-
tractors and Builders Board of Trade,
in special meeting assembled, that the
cause Of the employing StOnecutterS, of
this city, is just. That the demands OF
the stOnecutter'S union that all work
men, both competent and incompetent,
skilled and unSkilled, should be paid
fifty $50 cents per hour, is unfair and
unjust, both to the employer and the
skilled workman.
Resolved further, That we will, in
every way in our power, seek to aid and
uphold the employing stonecutters in
opposing this crusade against right and
Justice in this unwarranted attempt of
the employee to deprive his employer of
the right to transact his own business in
his own way, and to prevent many
skilled workmen of this city from OBJ
tanning and continuing in steady EN-
ployment at such wages as such work
mef.may deem good and sufficient.
The association has elected the follow
ing officers Asher Bassford, president;
Matt Breen. first vice president; Paul
Haupt, second Vice president; j. S.
Burris, third vice president; Ben Cox,
treasurer
