A Compromise Effected
Which Is Satisfactory
All Round.
The Cut in Wages Will Not
Be More Than Ten
Per Cent.
1t Simply Cuts Off an Advance Made
Some Time Ago, Resuming the
Old Rate.

The men who went on strike at the Pa
cific Rolling-mill few days ago, because
of threatened reduction in wages, will
return to work this morning the diff
Guilty having been adjusted. The men
yesterday, through committee, proposed
to Superintendent Noble a compromise
which, although it was very much more
to the advantage of the men than the
terms proposed by the company, was &C.
cepted.
The proposed reduction affected only
the men in the ten-inch and the bar MILL
and contemplated a cut of from IS to 35
per cent.
About two years ago an advance of 10
per cent was made in the wages OF the
men voluntarily by the company. The
men, having discussed the situation for
two days at their leisure, decided to make
"a proposition to go back to work under
their old rate of wages, cutting off the 10
per cent that had been added.
The committee called upon superin-
tendent Noble yesterday morning, made
their proposition, and the superintendent,
hearing them through, assented to it and
told the men to go to work.
Accordingly the men employed in the
1dTSeT hill Will 10 10 WOIh ILLS
and those employed in the small mill will
resume work on Monday.
Both the men and 1.-THE milp' seem to
be very we'll pleased at the settlement OF
the d fficulty. The men admit that there
is good reason in the condition of trade to
warrant reduction of wages. The price
of finished iron is low and in the West
here the distance from sources of supply
of raw material makes it difficult to COM
pete.
The proposed reduction only affects the
wages of some fifty men.
Larry Mcmahon, foreman OF the MILL
took occasion yesterday to contradict some
statements that have been made in print
regarding conditions at the mill. ut is
not true" he said, that the use of oil has
been discontinued in the mill because it
proved failure and that the changes in
the fittings to resume the use of coal had
been made at grea. cost. That is all rank
nonsense. The fact is the use of oil was q
marked success and there was no reason
why it should be discontinued except that
they raised the price until it became dearer
to use than coal.
They offered oil to US cheap at first and
we made certain changes for its use. Then
they thought they mad cinch on US and
raised the price. So we simply quit the
use and went back to coal. The fact is
the cost of tha change in fitting for coal
was a mere trif1e.
"Now as to the reduction, in wages it is

THIEVES AT THE SHOW.
Ingenious Rascals Tear a Hole in
the Pavilion Wall.

Ingenious Rascals Tear a Hole in
the Pavilion Wall.
While the band has played and the
fancy steppers of various sorts have been
stirring UP the tan bark in the Pavilion,
thiaves have cast coyetous eyes at various
nova bic articles, like whips, pieces of
harness and SO on. The total value of
such easily transferable articles in the
Pavilion is consi derable, running up into
the thousands of dollars. verything,
being for show, is naturally of the finest
and even satchel full of trappings would
have some value.
There are some thieves who are enter
prising enough to tear a hole through one
side of the Pavilion and crowd through
the aperture. This would be less credi-
BILE if the deed had not been actually ac-
com olished. The happening dates back
to Thursday night.
The construction of the shell of the
Pavilion is slight. There are upright and
cross timbers and sheathing of rustic
boards on the outside, but no inner
sheathing. Thieves evidently made q
study of this situation.
Thursday night hammering was heard
by some persons in the Pavilion while the
show was progressing. No one seemed to
pay any attention to it. There was SO
much going on that no one IN the Pavlllon
had any visible concern in this manifesto
ton, which occurred on the Pok-street
side. The thieves removed one of the rus
tic boards on Folk street and made en-
aperture large enough for slim man to
crawl through. If any one noticed this
no one interfered.
For time street gamins were supposed
to be stealing peep at the show, although
there was nothing but stalls and horses to
see from that point of view.
No person was seen to enter from the
street, but some one entered with felonious
purpose and stole something belonging to
McNab and Smith. Rumor goes that
whips and harness, which were hanging
in easy reach, were stolen, but this is de-
MED. 1t is conceded only that headstall
was taken. Rumor also has it that one or
two other exhibitor met with some loss,
but if this is true the particulars nave been
carefully kept secret.
Certain it is that two detectives went
through the Pavilion yesterday and ex-
amined the hole, which was boarded up
during the dav. The story of one or more
thefts varies the conversation concerning
blue ribbons, premiums and so on.

Super visors to Be Asked to Es.
tablish an Official Grade in
the District.
Complaint That Property Is Overas.
sessed in the Suburb on Account
of the Climate.

Property owners interested in the i'm
provement of Sunset district, particularly
in opening roadway along what is known
on the map as Nineteenth avenue, held an
entb usiastic meeting last night at 20
Eddy street.
The greater part of the session was &C.
cupied in discussing the feasibility OF
establishing the official grade of the dis
trict, so that when work was done there
would be no mixing up of official and un-
official grades.
1t was reported that the cost of estab-
fishing the grade would be $1,000, and it
was suggested that a committee should
be appointed whose duty should be to
appear before the Board of Supervisors
and petition for an appropriation of that
sum. If the present board would not do
it the new board could be ppealed TO.
At the worst a county lad could be
put in for the present, argued some of the
mem bers, but there would be some diff
Guilty on account of drifting sands. There
were two and half blocks on Nineteenth
avenue where precautions should be taken
against this evil.
George Green said that in all proba bility
there would be in the near future an cleo
trio road from the park to 1ngleside, and
he was of the opinion that the sooner
Nineteenth avenue was laid out the sooner
would the electric road be built. He
moved the appointment OF a committee
with instructions to get an appropriation
from the Supervisors to establish an Off
cial grade.
Mr. Larsen expressed the opinion that
it would be better to have county road
with the natural grade constructed for
the present. He suggested a roadway 46
feet wide, with sidewalks or curbs, until
the blocks were built upon and otherwise
i'm proved. There were five square miles
in the district, and on the map had been
laid out five streets 80 feet wide and some
70 feet wide. 1t was destined to be the
most beautiful residence part of the City,
he said, but there was not street in the
whole tract. The climate out there he
added, was finer than that of Sausalito,
Belvedere, Berkeley or San Rafael 1t is
true, he admitted that it blows little
and is foggy out there once in a while, but
nificent climate.
Mr.. Larsen complained that the Asses
soI had made mistake aud assessed the
| climate as we'll as the land. For instance,
one OF his blocks was assessed for $4,000,
while the block next 10 it was sold about
month ago for $500. The people in that
district paid considerable sums in taxes,
and they had not received anything from
| The City in return.
1t was decided TO instruct the com mittee
to visit A. B. Spreckels, Cornelius O. Con-
Tor, Charles Webb Howard, S. w. LeaKe
and other influential citizens in order to
secure their cooperation.
The chair appointed George Green, r.
T. Brodek and Messrs. Mem anon, Fink and
Pope as the committee, and the meeting
adjourned subject to the call of the chair.
