rRACKLAYERs srRIKE

ON the Electric street Car Road-State-
Inents From Both Sides.
Some excitement was raised yester-
day morning in the Eighth ward when
it became known that the large force Of
trackmen employed in relaying the
tracks of the electric street car line had
suspended work at eight o'clock. When
the men made their appearance at the
usual hour to start to work, it was rain
ing hard and they asked permission to
stop until the rain ceased, which was
granted. In the meantime they were
informed by the contractor that they
would have to work ten hours day,
which the workmen declined to do,
stating that they only worked nine
hours for the city, receiving the same
wages, 81 40 q day.
An INTEJLIoENCER reporter tried to
find Mr.. ]. K. Jolly, the contractor, but
he had left and was not expected back
until to-day. In conversation with
Mr.. A. NJ. jolly, one of the own
ers OF the road, he stated that the
question was not OF wages but OF time,
for the men must work ten hours in
order to have the road completed in a
certain time. "As l understand it the
contractor is willing to pay the extra
hour at the rate of 16i cents. We also
prefer to give the work to the laboring
men in this city, although we can hire
men at 81 % a day." 1t is claimed
by the workmen that they were only
offered 81 so for ten hours work, and
are afraid their places will be filed by
men from Pittsburgh as soon as they
can be disposed OF. A rumor was in
circulation last night that a number OF
Italians had arrived for such purpose,
but it proved to be unfounded. A num-
Der were discharged Saturday and Mon
day. One hundred and fifty-eight men
have engaged in the work. A few are
satisfied and will continue work, while
the majority are holding out. 1t is
hoped an amicable settlement will be
made as soon as possible.

The stone bridge commission met
Yesterday afternoon in the city engin-
GERS office, with the following members
present: Emsheimer, Hamilton, Graebe
and Zarnitz. Mr.. Emsheimer was cho-
sen to preside. The main business dis
cussed was the bill OF Mr.. Hallock,
which amounted to S3,633. OF this
amount S5ll OF it was expended in paw
ing the street car track. One OF the
members stated that the street car COM
pany ought to pay that, and when it
was suggested to recommend the bill OF
Mr.. Hallock, less the SSH, and he col
lect from the street car company, the
contractor said he was not looking to
the street car company for pay but to
the commission which ordered the
work done. The commission finally
agreed to split the bill, and to collect
the SSH from the street car company.
Mr.. Hallock again said that he looked
to no party for his pay but the commits
sion. He was assured that the COM
pany could be made pay, and il it
didn't, why the commission would, OF
course, have to.

ED. ALBINGER sKIPs

And Leaves Many Creditors Who VIII
Mourn His Absence.
Ed Albinger some time ago leased the
Delmonico restaurant on Market street,
below Fourteenth street, from Mrs.
Shorts. Mr.. Albinger seemed to be do
ing a thriving business until late Mon
day evening, when he did not show up.
1t seems he took in money, but paid
none out. Tho representatives Of a
butchering firm, to whom Albinger was
largely indebted, gave the cue when
they visited the restaurant late Monday
night and took all the meat out OF the
Ice chest they had sold Albinger, and
even went SO far as to take ham that
was boiling in the pot.
1t appears that Albinger owes var
ious dealers in restaurant supplies, the
sum total Of whose bills will amount to
$500. He owed Mrs. Shorts, from whom
he leased the restaurant; S25.. That
lady on hearing the facts resumed
charge OF the establishment yesterday,
and will conduct it hereafter.
There are limitations that Mr..
Albinger>s difficulties are intimately if
not remotely connected with woman.

growing prosperity Of the north and 70
maintain cotton's supremacy 1.-THE prod
uct OF slave labor tho tariff OF '46 was
passed.
II agree with Mr.. MacCorkle that the
period OF 1916 to 1850 was prosperous
period, but it was the beginning OF hell
for the Democratic party. Mr.. MacCor:
kle didn't speak of the great wars and
revolutions in Europe which made q
great demand for our agricultural and
manufactured products. He said moth
ing OF the discovery OF gold which set
in circulation fifty to sixty millions oil
gold annually. He did not refer to all
the other unusual things that occurred,
and that when that ideal period passed,
down went the prosperity which had
temporarily been experienced in spite
OF free trade. Mr. MacCorkle played
the demagogue and suppressed these
facts"
TRUE TO ITS RECORD.
Clearly and simply Mr.. Stewart
led up to the defeat of the southern
free traders in 1860, which wiped out
free trade. Then having attempted to
throttle the industries OF the country by
legislation for half a century the Demo-
cratic party resorted to arms. The re-.
suit was the removal OF another ele-
ment-the slave labor of the south
which had threatened the industrial
prosperity OF the country and COM
peted with free labor. The south was
not in favor of free white labor because
it inspired in the breast OF the slave q
desire to be free-to be his own man.
He then reviewed the prosperity OF the
country under Republican tariff laws.
Mr.. MacCorkle had asked who was
the father OF homesteads. Not the
Democratic party. Every time the
homestead bill came up in Congress
before the war. there was bill to OPP
pose ito purchase Cuba, slave terri.
tory. Finally when the homestead bill
passed it was vetoed by Buchanan, a
Democratic President The homestead
bill, which gave to ak million people
homes, many OF them colored citizens,
was a Republican measure.
Mr.. Stewart referred to Mr.. Pendle-
toms reference to the Pacific land
grants and declared that the result OF
the grant had been the building OF
line which had connected the Atlantic
and the Pacific and wonderfully devel-
oped the interior Of this vast continent.
Mr.. Pendleton would have it that it
was unconstitutional to develop the
country.

MANY MILLIONS COMING EASE
A Heavily Guarded Train Load OF tGoid
Coin Bound for Washington.

San Francisco. Aug. 4.Ons OF the largest
shipments of Government treasure made
across the continent In years was started
to-day from this city. For several
weeks special agents OF the Treasury
have been here quietly making arrangements
to ship many millions OF gold coin from the
Sub-Treasury here to Washington. This coin
to-day was put upon nve cars at the Southern
Pacific depot. All were especially strong. The
gold coin was in small square boxes. Thirty
Eastern postal route agents from this city ac-
companied the treasure. They had three
cases OF Winchester rifles. so that they will be
well armed and ready for train robbers.
Each car OF the train can carry six millions.
go that the train carries not less than thirty
millions. There are one hundred millions In
gold coin in the Sub Treasury hero. and at the
time OF the Chilian scare it was feared that II
might be seized.
Then it was determined to transfer tho bulk
OF the treasure to Washington. and this Is the
FIRST shipment
Great secrecy has been manifested by the
Treasury officials. and no facts could be gained
from them about this big shipment. as they
evidently fear train robbers.
