After tho beautiful balmy June wealth
er which marked the middle Of last
week, the seasonable cold snap OF Fri
day night, Saturday and yesterday,
with its snow squalls, was quite sur
prise, il not 10 say hardship. No matter
how reasonable weather may be, it is
not altogether lovely to be transferred
from Jacksonville to Quebec without
Time to change undeiclothing. But.the
people didn't seem to mind it and the
streets were well filed yesterday with
promenaders, out to get lung full OF
condensed oxygen. The old saying, tia,
il March comes in like lion it will 20
out like a lamb, is getting little groggy,
and in this year OF meteorological CON
trariness, tie March lamb may 20 out
inside Of the March lion, SO it is not safe
for the gardeners to bank strong or deal
in futures on the present weather.

FL .
Decides TO Recommend tho Passage Of nm
$4,000 Lonn Ordinance.
A meeting held at tho Public Building
Saturday morning Of the conference com.
mittee, consisting Of Messrs. Wilson,
Pollock, Halter, seeley, Ilarrell and
Brandfass, appointed from tho two
branches OF Council, for the purpose OF
harmonizing, II possible, tho points OF
aiiierence with regard 10 the matter OF n
bridge over tho creek at Main street,
which were developed in tho two
branches at last Tuesday nights meet
Ing OF Council, was attended BY
several members OF Council and others
Interested in the matter. City Engi.
neer Hoge and Mr.. White, his assistant.
and Mr.. George Ferris, oftthe firm Of
Ferris Il kaufman, OF Pittsburgh,
bridge contractors, were among those
present. The meeting was held in the
chamber OF tho Second Branch and on
motion OF Mr.. Wilson was presided over
by - Mr.. Pollock. After quite
q lengthy discussion OF several Of
the points involved the committee
decided unanimously to recommend to
Council that the loan ordinance rs pass.
ed by the Second Branch last Tuesday
night, be adopted by both branches,
with the amendment that In place OF
Sl5O,0O0 being named Us tho amount OF
tho loan, tho figures be $4,000. This
ordinance not only gives the people an
opportunity to say whether a loan shall
DO made, but also allows them to express
their preference for a stone or steel
bridge. B5 "a aTIi .0r'Q-',r1I
Mr.. Secley wanted to hear from City
Engineer Hoge, and TINT gentleman
stepped forward to the Presidents table,
stating that he was willing to answer
questions, and producing drawings OF a
single arch stone bridge, which he stated
could be built for $4,000. }Higl H@p
President Pollock made the statement
that q responsible contractor was willing
to build tho bridge at that figure :
MIR. Seeley took occasion TO state the
figures furnished by him to Council
were not his, but were the figures OF
tho firm OF Ferris 4 Kaufman, and
that it appeared to him that some people
were trying to put him in the position
OF the firm. Mr.. Ferris, OF the firm, was
present, and he hoped he would be
allowed to make statement.
Mr.. Ferris then stated that he had no
statement to make; that the figures
already published were simply from a
hasty estimate, and not intended for
publication; that they were made for
private use, md had been left in his
room during his absence from the city;
that he received notice they were to be
used and lad not objected, but stipu-
lated that the firm name should not
be used. In his opinion, the City En-
gineer was the proper person to furnish
plans and estimates, and his firm would
not enter into competition with him.
At the request Of Mr.. Pollock, however,
MIR. Ferris exhibited sectional plans OF
the steel bridge.
Mr.. Seeley asked Mr.. Ferris ii his (Ir.
Seeley's) statement in Council that the
cost Of the bridge would be Sl37, 900, ex-
elusive OF cost Of plans, was correct, and
MIR. Ferris answered in the affirmative.

Employed mt Cox s. aIorrison's Yard
Out on n strikc-ThcIr Statement.
|. The boiler makers employed at Cox &
Morrison's yard went on strike last
Friday night for a continuation OF the
nine-hour work day, which was insti-
tuted in that firms shops last fall.
Messra. Cox 4 Morrison say that the
men were given the nine.hour day when
the days began to shorten last fall, with
the understanding thut the ten-hour
day was to 80 into effect again March |.
This the men deny, and they further
state that they want restoration OF the
twenty-five cent reduction on repair
work which they stood few months
ago.
Concerning a statement OF the case
which appeared in another city paper
yesterday, the following communication
from the wofkme1 is printed in expla.
nation OF their side Of tho natter:
To the Editor Of The IaisligNctr. H..
SlR:-The statement published in re-
gard to the boiler makers strike, from
information furnished by the firm OF
Cox & Morrison, is tissue Of misstate.
ments from beginning to end. In the
first place, the firm employs only seven
boiler makers, and it would BIO impossi-
BILE for eight Of them to 90 on strike, to
cay nothing Of the other eight, who, it is
claimed in the article referred to, re-
fused to stand by their brother work
men. The fact is, that all the boiler
makers at Cox & Morrison's are on
strike, and neither associates nor any,
one else have taken their places. The
firm states that an agreement was entered
into with the men TO work nine hours in
winter and ten hours after the first OF
March. This statement we deny, and
say that no agreement 10 return to ten
hours at any time was ever made,
The statement by tho employers in
regard to the snort notice is merely a
make.shitt, as the boilcr.makers were
working only nine hours right along,
and would have given no notice what
ever If they had nothear d Of the action
Of the employers tending to increase the
hours. The boiler.lnahera ask. only
what is just and right in the controyer-
BY, and make these statements simply
to correct the misrepresentation which
have been published. t,,iG - ~
