The brotherhood convention at Market

The committee of engineers officiating

ting at the facts by questioning the
members of the committee closely. but
thus far the testimony has not revealed
anything which might be construed as
being against the peace and dignity OF
the brotherhood, and nothing Of that
nature Is anticipated. At 1880 the
committee arose. reported peogress, and
asked leave to sit again at 2:45, which

Attempt to Settle the Big Coal Strike
Now In Progress.
CLEVELAND, o., May 15.-Every train
arriving in this city during the night
and early hours Of the morning brought
delegates to attend the miners conven-
tion and the conference which takes
place at the chamber Of commerce be-
tween the miners and operators.
Verg few operators put in an appear.
ance as early as did the miners dele
gates, but q large number of rooms
have teen reserved for them at the va
rious hotels, and good sized delega-
tion will probably arrive in the city by
nightfall.
A Difference Of Opinion.
While it has been said the Pittsburg
district operators have been asserting
right along that their men are willing
to work for b5 cents ton IL they could
be assured protection, il was not long
after the miners had arrived before 1t
became apparent that SO far as the del
egates represent the feelings of the
strikers, that the men are not at all
willing to return for the same wages. /"
Not There, 60 Compremise.
Secretary p. J. McBryde voiced the
sentiments OF good many delegates
when he answered suggestion as to a
compromise.
mo, sir" he said, 1--WE did not come
here for compromise, and TINS far we
have no such word in our vocabulary.
Nothing short Of what we ask will give
the miners living wages, and for that
we contend. We can hold out for three
months, but we have no desire to do so.
For that reason we came to this con.
ference"
Mr.. McBryde would not for mo-
ment consider the effect of ofsettlement in
different localities without reference to
what 10 done elsewhere.
Muss Settle For All States.
sThe only condition under which
work win be resumed" he continued,
sis q settlement for all the states as was
originally announced"
The declaration means that the min
ers and operators OF the Pittsburg dis.
trict are as far apart Is possible. The
latter decided at their conference in
Pittsburg on Friday, that they would
not participate in the convention to be
held here, and further that they would
settle with their men without consulting
the officers Of ths United Nine workers.

S. t. Coulter of Sonoma, the prospect
i've candidate for Railroad Commissioner
from that district, is in the city, looking
up his Democratic friends in anticipation

There was glove fight at Riverside

near Arno Station. which the Board of
supervisors has ordered abandoned.
The answer sets forth that Herbert does
not own any Of the land over which this
particular road passes, nor any of the
land abuttIng on it; that he has no inter-
est ia the land nor in the road, and that
he will not be damaged at all by its being
closed.
The defendant then sets out all the pro-
ceedings of the Board of Supervisors in
relation TO this road, beginning with the
year 1883, when the first attempt was
made TO open the new road and close the
Old one. 1t appears by the answer that
the board once before ordered this road
closed, but it was not done. Thereupon
a second, and finally a third petition to
have 1t closed was presented to the board
by the residents and landowners in the
vicinity Of Arno, and finally, on the sixth
day of this month the Board of Super
visors again ordered the old road aband-
| oned.
| Mrs. Valensin alleges that she is the
owner OF the land over which the old
road passes, as we'll as the land on both
sides OF it; that the Board OF Supervisors
having abandoned the road, the public
thereby loses all right to it, and it reverts
to her as the owner of the land.
She then asks that the plaintiff take
| nothing by his action, but that she re-
cover from him her costs of suit.

AMERICAN RIVER OBSTRUCTION.

The Prison Directors say They Are Not
Responsible Therefor.
Ever since the construction Of the Fol-
som dam there has been loud complaint
because the law providing for the con-
struction of fsh-ladders in obstructed
streams has not been complied with at
that point
The idea has prevailed that the State
was in some way responsible for the fail
ure to construct fish-Iadder past the
dam which would enable trout and other
fishes TO reach the spawning grounds in
the mountains, but this, says Prison Di-
rector r. I. Devlin, is a mistake.
Speaking on this subject Mr.. Devlin
said to a RECORD UNION reporter the
other day that neither the State nor the
Prison Directors are to blame in the mat
ter.
"We had nothing to do with the con-
struction of che dam,o said he, "beyOnd
furnishing the company that owns it a
certain amount OF labor. That was done
under a contract which required the COM
pany to provide the prison with a certain
quantity Of water tor power purposes.
We have no control over the dam itself
and nothing to do with it."
This matter of the construction of q
hsh-ladder," continued Director Deylin,
was discussed at recent meeting of the
Prison Directors, and it was generally
agreed that one should be constructed.
Our attention has been called to the fact
that thousands of fishes of various kinds
yearly seek to ascend the river, but are
unable to pass the dam. There surely
ought to be a ladder there. and l don't
believe it would cost very big sum OF
money to construct one."
There Is little doubt that the American
river would become a splendid stream for
angling, as it was in early days, if fishes
were not obstructed in their passage to
and from its headwaters. The partial
sessation of hydraulic mining along the
several forks of the American, and the
consequent improvement in the quality
of the water. has of late years caused
trout to again seek that stream after il
enters the valley, and if it can be restored
to something like its former condition it
would afford fine sport for anglers.

UPSON WON
The Road Race Down the Riverside
Turnpike Yesterday.

The Road Race Down the Riverside
Turnpike Yesterday.
The wheelmen's race down the River
side road, from the toll-gate to Oak Hall,
came off yesterday forenoon. 1t was
witnessed by large number of people,
who went down the road in buggies, car
riages, on horseback and on bicycles to
see the speedy wheelmensmake the dust
tiy in the wake of their machines.
There was a little head-wind, which
somewhat retarded the riders and pre-
vented them from doing any record
breaking.
The handicap contest was good one,
however, and aroused much enthusiasm
along the route. The men nearly all fin
ished in bunch, but Upson, who started
from the scratch" won handily, captur-
ing both the prize for place and that for
time.
George Readman. with start of thirty
five seconds, finished second, Elliott
twenty seconds) third, Hubert (thirty
seconds) fourth, and Bennett fifth. Hoag-
land and Wood had collision on the
way and neither finished.
Upson's time was eight minutes and
thirty seconds.
