BOYCOTTING 4 THEATER,
The Musicians Union Declare
War Against the Peoples
Palace.
Fines Will Be in Order-A Bar That
Paid No Rent and Yet Has
Deficit.

The annual meeting of the Musicians
Protective Union of San Francisco was
held at 80 Fourth street yesterday after
noon. The financial report for the year
1895 was as follows: Receipts-Cash on
hand January /, $527 II; secretary's re-
celpts during year, $500 %; bar receipts,
$3466 20; received by trustees from bank,
$500; total, $82S6 20. Disbursements
Office expenses, $4011 80; bar, $4O45 Is; in.
terest, $22 IS; total, $S078 68. Balance in
treasuTer's hands January l, 1896, $207 81;
balance in bank, 1856 90. Total assets of
the union now, 1914 q. Office deficit for
the year, $343 80; bar deficit, $57S 80.
The Office deficit was the ordinary an
nual expense of the union, but the bar
shor tage was appalling. How the receipts
could amount to $3456 20 and the dsburse-
ments to $4045, wit hout rent and water to
pay, which are included in the office dis
burse ments, was something the musicians
cannot get through their heads To be
sure the bartender's salary was $1120, the
liquor and cigar bills about $1,000, the beer
bill S64S 10, fitting up the bar and hall
$206 20. Still the deficit appeared need
less fact.
However, the matter was finally disposed
of by leasing the costly bar at monthly
rental 10 TWO members OF JIl6 union.
The following officers for the ensuing
year were elected and installed: President,
f. w. Kent; vice president. J. a. Keogh;
secretary, Sam Davis; treasurer, L. Els
feldt. Trustees-l. Frank, 4. Paulsen and
\. Rusteberg. Executive cominittee-G.
Bennett, L. Hauser, c. Henke, B. Jaulus,
H. Kropp, William Klein, c. Miltner, E.
NJ. Rosner; sergeant-at-arms, J. Spencer.
Charles Scbuppert, f. Gaschiin, J. Dunn
P. Darcy and g. Henke were appointed
permanent delegates to the Council of
Labor.
Upon motion an assessment OF $50 was
levied upon every member to create the
fund ordered to be raised by the National
League of Musicians of the United States
from all the uniors. This is the per cent
assessment fund for the families of deceased
musicians.
The matter of the refusal of Manager
Phillips of the Peoples Palace Theater 20
employ union musicians was considered.
1t was stated that Phillips had per-
emptorily declined to receive the COM
mittee sent TO him and expressed himself
as able to defy the union. Ii was ordered
that committee of two be appointed bv
the union and the Council of Labor be
asked to appoint one of three persons to
carry on the boycott against the Peoples
Palace. 1t was also ordered that any men,
ber of the union seen entering the place or
found patronlzing that theater in any
manner should be fined. Addresses were
made by number of speakers all advo-
eating strong, sharp fight against Man
ager Phillips, to be continued till he en-
ployed union musicians in his orchestra.
In the evening the Labor Council re-
solved to give the union all moral support
possible until the proprietor of that place
agreed to employ only union musicians.

Trolley-Cars Will Be Used In.

TEN.
A Winding Road Around the Mountain
Finally Decided Upon by the
Company.

The engineers of the mountain railroad
the Mill Valley aud Mount Tamalpais
scenic road-began Thursday on the loca-
ton survey of the route, having finished
the preliminary survey. The road will
start from EaStland, where the power
house is to stand, and will continue along
the creek in the direction of BliIhedale
Valley and so wind up the side of the
mountain to point under the third spur
The grade will be much easier than at
first appeared as its general average is So
feet TO the hundred and at no place will it
be sleeper than ~ per cent. The distance
traversed will be something over seven
miles, which will be made in about three
quarters of an hour from the starting
point, and of course much faster on the
homestretch on the down grade.
The intention 10 make direct cable line
to the top of the mountain has been
abandoned, and the electric trolley system
will now be adopted. The capacity of the
cars will be for sixty persons, and on Sun
days they will connect with each train ar
irving at Eastlan0.
The best system of brakes will be used
to guard against any possibility OF accident
1t is difficult to imagine anything more
picturesque than the line of country this
road will open, and deep canyons, rushing
brooks and wooded plateaus lie along the
route, which may be made the location for
many mountain home.
The company will be Incorporated in a
few days. Among the leading share
holders are Sidney E. Cushing, A. Z.

Schuckers' Great Work.

The most startling expose that has
come out for years is "The New York

is by j. w. Schuckers, who was prl-
vste secretary to Salmon P. Chase,
Secretary Of the Treasury under Pres
ident Lincoln during the war,
MFR. Schuckerg has been threatened
with arrest by some Of the New York
bank Presidents, but he openly defies
them, saying il the severe charges in
Che book are false, he (the suthor)
ought to be In the penitentiary, and If
they are true, these bankers ought to
be imprisoned. The object Of the
book is not alone TO call attention to
the great injustice to the industries of
this nation, but to point out the danger
and possibility Of such recurrence at
the viii Of the men who originated and
carried into effect the scheme Of which
Mr.. Schuckers writes. Largely
through the operation of the COnsplr-
acy above referred to ia national
banks were closed during the first
eight months of 1893; thirty.one were
closed during the first week in July,
and seVenty.tWo during July of that
year. $4OO,0OO,OOO were withdrawn
from circulation during June and July
of 1893 to force this object lesson upon
rs. This panic closed the doors of more
than 800 manufacturing establish
ments, atonce throwing,upon the char.
tiles of the public $4,000 Workmen.
1t would require less effort for those
bankers to produce a more disastrous
panic In 1896 than in 1893, because Of
the fact that the country banks, man
ufacturers and merchants are in q
weaker condition.

At noon the committee had not reached
the financial plank, where the contest was
expected between the gold and silver men.
The subcommittee reported complete

Chairman Foraker stated that the SUD-

in which the history ard the mission Of

and there was no disposition to alter the

There was some objection to the form of
this resolution, and some brief speeches
were made In support of various PROPOSE
tions. One Of these was to amend the reso-
luton by declaring for specific duty on
sugar and another for a specific declara-

None of these was accepted, and the

They were replied to by Senator Gear of
Iowa, who contended for the merit of the
bounty system, saying that the main object
was to protect the original producers of
sugar in this country and that the bounty
system was well calculated to accomplish
this purpose.
