The labor troubles, which have been
brewing for several days. ARE becoming
more serious. One prominent build az
firm has declared that it will employ no
union men and will discharge all union
men that may be found in its employ,
having already discharged one man.
The Carpenters and Joiners' Union.
No. 49S, received in ten new members
Monday night. Among them was \
young carpenter named j. j.. EARLY,
who worked for w. j.. Il l.. blair. He.
reported for work as usual Yesterday
morning.
The Messrs. Blair employ at present
htty-cight carpenters. They we're at
their place of business yesterday morn
ing before the men went to work. All
the men were called together.
All members of Carpenters and
Jolners' Union, No. 49S, please step for
ward"
The men looked at one another SPELL
bound, and remained m%otionloss. At
length j. j. Early went forward, and
was asked II he belonged to this union.
Il do he replied.
He was then told that his services
were no longer required, MS the firm did
not wish ID employ union men under
any consideration.
LIE TIMES reporter called latc last
evening nj the residence OF .hc Mcssrs.
Blalr TO ascertain if the report was cor.
rect. The junior member OF tho firm
answered al questions readily, and said
the report was correct. He furthcr
addcu that 1t was not account of any in
competency on the part of Mr.. Early
that he was discharged, but simply be-
cause he belonged to the union.
Mr.. Blair said he had on the day be-
lore received II notice from tho union
making demands which he was unwil-
ing to accedc to, and was determined
that II any union men were in his ON
ploy to get rid of them Mt once.
MIR. Blair further stated that in all
their extensive building operations they
would not employ union men, in any
branch OF the business. Their brick
layers, plastererS, timers and carpen-
ters were all n%on-union men so far as
they knew, and if they found one union
man in their employ they would dis
charge him at once.
The carpenters throughout the city
are very indignant over tho affair, from
the fact that Early was discharged as
soon as he had joined tho union. They
claim that they will carry their point,
and are only waiting for the first Of
May, when it will then be decided
whether or not the contractors can afford
To do without union men.
They are cndcavoring TO get cyory
carpenter i'll the city to Join the union,
and say that the Hairs action in dis
charging Early will tend to strengthen
every trade union in the city.

its stead the electric light plant ordi-
nance, which was proposed, but not
adopted.
The bonds provided for are 6 per cent.

years and payable in thirty years.
The first ordinance provides for -, 900
Tor the purchasing of sites and the cree
ton thereon OF public school buildings:
$1,000 for Il city survey AMI map in

larging, improving and repairing the

recent statement in one of your con
temporaries that the appropriation of
$4,000 for n city survey and map was
recommended by the city engineer is in
correct, as the report below will show.
Yet do not say that the amount NAV
not be needed, as no one can now csti-
mate with absolute accuracy what such
a survey may cost, and the Council has
very wisely recommended $4,000 in
order not to mako 4 second %appropria-
zion. AND Whatever part Of the SIS. 900
may not be needed for this special pur-
pose could be used for engineering OK
penscS afterwards, instead of taking

SIR:-According to your cqucst |
herewith furnish you with estimates for
a complete survey and map of the city:
My estimate for the survey and map
is based on the following plan:
l. TO establish Il true meridian and
refer all magnetic bearings to it, so that
the magnetic variation may not cause
confusion.
.. TO survey the corporation limo ac-
curately and put in suitable land marks,
showing location of cach on the map.
3. TO make a survey of all the streets
and alleys by the best evidences from
the records and marks on the ground,
and plot the same in sections on a large
scale, then in this plot the individual
lots from the deeds.
4. From the above data to establish
the ultimate or permanent street and
alley lines representing the same on the
sectional maps by lines, with the angles
and distances in figures, in conventional
colors.
.. To plant permanent landmarks
at the street corners and angles in the
streets
&. To make in addition to tho sec
tional maps, a general map on scale of
about 400 feet to the inch showing
streets, alleys, five foot contours and
buildings.
think the following force employed
FOR one year would do this work.
