Master Pluiabers Admit Doing Work

The hearing of the charges against City
Plumbing Inspector J. X. Malan was con-
tinued last night before the board of health
in its office IN 5he Hinckley block. Mr..
Ma.an vas placed upon the stand and was
questioned by w. d. Mcmillan. represent
ing the journsynlen and master plumbers.
Various queseons were asked, but as they
embodied poiets Of law they were objected
to and ruled zout These applied to the
legality of wC>k on the Citizens market,
the ParkinsoryroH. at Twelfth and Marion,
and the Rankx block.
Paul HaineA was next called to the
stand. In ANSWER to the question of Mr..
Mcmillan as q how long he had served
apprenticeship he replied that he could
do better ans -honester job than McMil-
Ian; that he h4d keen twenty-five years
in the business, and longer than the in
quirer and wo,zi probably be in it after
Mr.. Mcmillan ,ad quit. He was asked
some questions COUGHING his own capacity,
but they were> ruled out. He said the
inspector had made him conform to law.
Frank b. Cleveland was next called and
said that Mr.. II Gan had compelled him to
observe the law. lie did a certain lob
which was not Properly DONE Mr.. MaIan
had not inspected it. Fred Webster, a
plumber, testiEed that the inspector
had compelled :. him to conform to
the law. Jof.n Kaufman testified
that the inspector had not gone
carefully over woSS. He was then asked
whether he had MT had times" with the
inspector. but Sbjected to answering.
Frank Gordon nxSt testified that the in

Thomas kerns and Peter s. Bronson
testified for the Inspector.
d. b. Spelman S. III that he did not think
the inspector wac careful enough. Ed

duced to go intq lhis case by theis en-
ployers.
Mr.. Fishback the q, made an address to
the board for the kfcnse. He said that
two classes had econtributed to these
charges and that the impression was
abroad that the j9urneymen had been
brought in to aid the-cause of their masters.
As to Mr.. Malan, he said that he would
not give anything at sill for a popular
plumbing inspector, that if he was popu-
lar some one was being robbed. As to the
master plumbers, even the leading masters
had admitted they had done work wrong.
If Malan did work to suit the masters the
builders would be dissatisfied, and vice
versa. The whole thing was engi-
neered by those who wanted the office.
The inspector had stood the investigation
and should be permitted TO remain.
Mr.. Mcmillan then wound up the case
with an argument favorng the charges.
After his conclusion DR.. Churchill said
that the board would hold the charges
under advisement

OLD SALTS ARE SORE.
Appointment of Jelich Received
With Indignation.
NOT FIT FOR PORT WARDEN.
A Faithful Heeler, but No Shipmaster-
The Wilmington May Be Con-
demred-Marine Notes.

The appointment of Bardo Jelich as
port warden has caused 4 tempest on the
water front. Capt. J. A. Hatfiel6's office
yesterday afternoon was the scene of the
assembling of whole host Of steamboat
men warmly discussing the appointment
and condemning the administration for
having made it. 1t had the appearance OF
veritable indignation meeting. This was
not the only place in which the question
was discussed and the administration
soundly berated by both Republicans and
Democrats for making use OF an important
position to pay the lowest kind of politi-
cal debt. But wherever two or three water
front men came together the question was
the topic of conversation.
Contrary to the claim of Jelich's sup
porters, it is not because he happens to
have been born in this, that or the other
country that his appointment meets with
disapproval. but because he is not quail
fed for the position. Port warden is not
an office the du ties of which are very ar
duous. nor are the ordinary duties such as
any man of common intelligence could not
perform. But every now and then there
arises an emergency which requires the
knowledge and understanding of q practi-
cal shipnlaster of wide experience. Sup
pose vessel came in here with a damaged
cargo. 1t is the duty of the port warden
to survey her matches and cargo, certify
whether the matches had been properly
battened down, the vessel properly dun
naged and the cargo properly slowed He
certiiies to these facts and his certificate is
accepted by the underwriters, if he be a
practical man. If not, the result is trouble
and dissatisfaction.
Again, i'll case an emergency arises in
which the port warden is called upon to
have one vessel removed to make room for
another. who but a practical shipmaster is
competent to judge as to which is in the
right? True, with the amount of busl-
ness done on the harbor there is little fear
of many such emergencies arising. but it is
not improbable tina: the activity witnessed
here three years ago in the shipping bust
ness will soon be witnessed again. and
then cases of this kind will be of daily &C.
currence.
These are the reasons urged why some
old practical shipmaster should be APP
pointed to the position. JeIich never
has been a shipmaster. He has been
to sea and claims to have held the posi-
ton of third mate, but that does not
qualify him by any means. His only ex-
perience in steamboating on the Sound
was his service as cook on the steamer
City of Seattle. But with no other quail
fications than these and the fact that he
acted as ward heller to the Democracy In
steering in large number of fishermen to
support the reform p candidate for mayor
in the spring election. he is rewarded by
an appointment to the position of port
warden in preference to Capt. L. A. Dyer,
a thorough old shipmaster and old-time
Democrat

JOY In TWO CITIES.
Preparing to Celebrate Great
Northern's Completion.
SEATTLE AND ST. PAUL UNITED.
Chamber OF Commerce Appoints . Com
mittee for the Purpose-Tke st.
Paul Programme.

The completion of the Great Northern
railroad will be celebrated at both ends Of
the lire with feasting and rejoicing. and
the two cities of Seattle and st. Paul,
which will be Joined by the bonds of steel
] ,s23 miles long, will exchange friendly
greetings.
The first step toward arranging a cele-
bration in this city was taken by the
Chamber of Commerce trustees yes
terday. Attention was called to
the proposed festivities at ST. Paul
and it was decided to prepare
for similar ceremonies here. A committee
consisting of E. o. Graves, jacob Furth.
Bailey Gatzert, John Leary and j. NJ.
Wrestling was appointed TO consider the
matter and draw up programme.
In ST. Paul the celebration is 20 be on
par with that held on the occasion of the
completion of the Northern Pacific, and
will be of such character that the whole
population can take part in it. Commit
tees have been appointed By the job
bers e MON, Business Mems Union, Cham
Der of Commerce and Commercial Club,
and have decided that the celebration
shall consist of an industrial parade. in
which all the manufacturing and business
enterprises of the city will be displayed,
public reception to President J. ]. Hill,
of the Great Northern, in the evening and
. banquet to the same gentleman on the
following evening. The committee sent a
telegram to Mr.. Hill in New York, invit-
ing him to take part in the celebration,
and received the following reply:
Your very kind message received. VIII be
delayed here few days longer. Should it be
Necessary to fix date before nav return, any
day between the 2ist and Christmas eve would,
] hope, suit everybodys convenience.
1t is intended by the st. Paul committee
to invite the representative men of the
West and Northwest and the friends and
promoters of the Great Northern to be
present at the banquet. and to make II as
memorable an event as the ceremonies
attending the completion of the Northern
Pacific.
/. is probable that the damage caused
by the recent floods will delay the laying
OF track through until after the date
named by Mr.. Hill in his telegram, and
that the last rail will be laid about Janu-
airy /. 1882 The time for the celebration
may be expected to come in the first two
weeks ofJanuary.

there today. 1t is evident that Capt.
Kendall is not disposed to save the Monte
Cristo Railroad Company anything in the
way of economizing in handling the
freight. as the cargo is to be discharged
onto the wharf and will have to be hauled
from there to the Great Northern railroad
track and loaded on cars to be shipped to
Everett, and thence out on the line. As
stated in the PosT-INTELLIGENcER a few
days ago, the refusal of the railroad to pay
$1,000 extra to have the cargo discharged
at Everett, as it did in the case of the Abb
ner Coburn, has led to the present display
of antagonism.

END OF vILLARD's SUPREMACY.
lie Has Lost Control of the Northern
Pacific and May BE Deposed.

The New York journal Of Finance says:
The sentiment among ekholders of
Northern Pacific is that Mr.. Wizards
supremacy in the company Is coming 10
an end. Two years ago the North Ameri-
can company owned 200o00 shares OF the
stock and its control enabled Mr.. Willard
To put IN board OF directors whose inter
ests were Willard interests. Today, how
ever, this North American holding is
scattered far and wide and is held by peo-
PIE who DO not care for Mr.. Willard or his
principles. II the present chairman of
the board of directors is reelected il will
be because he ana his friends have bought
over half the capital stock. and this neces-
states the purchase of "a large block in the
open market. MIR. Wizards reelection
will be vigorously opposed"

Congress MAY Place Discrimin ating Du-
ties on Imports via Canada.
WASHINGTON Cry, Nov. pa new
effort To deprive the Canadian Pacific rail-
way OF the peculiar advantages it enjoys
in com peting with the American through
lines to the Pacific is likely to be made
during the coming session of congress.
Edward c. O'Brien, commissioner of nayi-
cation. has taken up the subject with
energy. In his recent annual report he
urges that discrimin ating duty be placed
on products OF Asia and Australia i'm
ported into this country from Canada.
The Canadian government now levIes dis
eliminating duties on tea and coffee i'm
ported into Canada from the United
States. Actual legislation in restraint of
the Canadian Pacific railway is not likely
to go further than requiring the road to
conform to the interstate commerce act
until the broad questions of her trade re-
iations with Canada are dealt with.
Negotiations for closer reciprocal rela-
tions between the two countries, however.
will depend upon the attitude of the pres
ent Conservative ministry in Canada, and
its ability to retain its power against the
growing sentiment there for tearing down
the barriers to trade with the United
States. The disposition of the strongest
advocates of Canadian reciprocity during
the last session of congress was 10 take no
action which might look like meddling
with Canadian affairs or forcing the hand
OF the Canadian government. The change
in the national administration of this
country may justify forward movement
