CRAFT AND GUILD.
A Strict Union Shop Made of the
Occidental Foundry.
Probable Reorganization of the National Beer
Brswers-The Retail Shoe Clerks Deny That
They Have Classified Stores.

An important meeting of the Iron-mold-
ers' Union was held in B'nai Birth Hall
last night, but very little of the business
transacted was divulged, and it was mid
night before al adjournment was taken.
The Executive Committee of the union
presented a report recommending that the
Occidental Foundry of Steiger & Kerr be
opened as union shop. The report was
adopted, and the organization decided to
make the foundry union shop, which will
hereafter be run on strictly union rules
Just under what conditions the foundry was
declared union shop was not given out.
The molders declare that they have not
departed one iota from their principles. No
nOn-union molders will be employed in the
foundry, but the union men will go to work
to-day and the old men be given the prefer
euce. The iron-molders were very jubilant
over this victory.
1t was reported that seven "scab" molders
were sent East during the week and dona-
tions were acknowledged from the follow
ing unions: Machinists, No. 6S; Press
mems San Francisco; San Francisco Typo
graphical, No. 81; Carpenters and Joiners',
No. %; Journeymen BARRIERS; Amalga-
mated Carpenters and Joiners'; Iron
holders, No. l1S0, Tacoma; Iron-molders',

BEER BREWERS.
Prospect of Reorganization of the
National Union.

Prospect OF n Reorganization of the
National Union.
There is probability that a reOrgani ia
ton of the National Brewers Union will
soon take place. Secretary Thurman of the
Pacific Coast Union declares that if such an
event takes place his organization will join
it under certain conditions, but he denies
that he will form new National Union
himself as stated in an evening paper.
Secretary Thurman has prepared an ex-
haustiye report on the rise and progress of
the United Brewery Workmen, and the
work it has accomplished since its organize
ton. The report is divided iuto twenty-four
chapters, the first two being devoted to the
present condition of the union. In January,
1890, the organization had 420 members,
divided into six branches, aud a treasury OF
$1,000. The union now has membership of
722 men, in ten branches-net gain during
the year, about 800 men and four branches.
The funds have increased to S10,2G0 10.
The report treats of the establishment of
the northern branches and the successful
introduction of the nine-hOur working day,
with a corresponding Increase in wages, on
May LIST; also of the introduction of the APP
prentice system; the successful organizd-
ton of Branch 3. Beer-drivers of San
Francisco and vicinity; the boycott against
Weinhardt in Portland, Oregon, and the
crusade of the union against ChineSe-made
cigars and footgear.
The report also states that the union do
mated during the year $500, of which sum
$3.50 went 10 the striking iron-molders and
core-makers. The employment bureau is
also treated Of, through which 563 men Sc
cured employment during the year.

ELECTION COMMISSION.
A Plan About Agreed Upon to Have
Nou-Parfisan Rnard

A Plan About Agreed Upon to Have a
Non-Partisan Board.
Inc Conference Committee of Democrats
and Republicans, which has been trying for
some three or four weeks to frame an cleo
ton law better calculated to suit the can
ditions of San Francisco, held another meet
ing In the Registrars Office yesterday after
noon and came nearer agreeing upon a sat
lsiactory bill than at any former meeting.
Ihere were present Registrar Smiley, Max
Topper, Meyer Jacobs, DR.. Meyer, William
Broderick, L. |. OBrien, A. L. SPOTS and
John Dougherty.
Inc hrst proposition of the committee was
a sort OF continuation of ideas discussed at
the previous meeting-that is. to frame an
entirtly new election law and make it
specially applicable to San Francisco. Just
now to evade the special legislation" pro-
hloltlon of the Constitution puzzled them all,
Out the belief was finally accepted that the
courts were becoming more and more liberal
every year In the construction of the mean
ing Oh special legislation" and therefore If
the PHI Is made for ''cties and cities and
counties OF more than 100000 population" it
would 90 through all right.
registrar Smiley was of the opinion that
general election law would not pass the
present Legislature, and since it is more de-
SlfaDle TO reconstruct that portion of the
law relating to the Election Commission the
committee would do best to turn its whole
attention to that point. This view of the
case was generally accepted.
A non-partisan Board of Election Com
mlssioners is the crying need of san Fran
cisco, aud al! were agreed upon that point.
How to secure it was not so easy to agree
upon. Various ideas were advanced. but
the one that seemed the most acceptable
and feasible was that the board should con-
sist OF four members, two fom each OF the
leading parties. The manner OF appointing
was to let the County Committees submit to
the Mayor and Board of Supervisors six
names each, from which number two of
each party must be selected.
This appeared 10 be the nearest approach
to non-partisan board that could be sug-
gested, and thus far a bill after this idea
Will be framed for submission to the present
Legislature

The retail shoe clerks held an enthusiastic
meeting last night and the delegates to the

On Wednesday the question of the
amalgamation of the shoe clerks with the

delegates have resigned from the Federated
Trades, and they also wish cOHtradcted the
statement that they have made n classical
