has been said that one or two arp holdlng
out but only to make sure that hll hands
will come in, and that details faye been
arranged. One agent who at the outset
was in favor of getting down tl the lower
basis, said yesterday:-'If wetwere going
to reduce we should have reduced on the
spot and said nothing. AS it is, we nave
discussed the matter for days and then
handed the subject over to the operatives
and the newspapers. AS result there
has been the usual controversy, and l,
for one, would not be sorry to see the
movement fall through
Another agent said:-'T would not cut
down unless I knew that the help would
stand for it, My machinery is engaged at
better prices than are obtainable today,
and it would cost the factory more TO stop
than it does to run, to say nothing ABOUT
the small profit which we are making.
Still another said:-@I see no use in cut

Today = Board Of Works
Won't Interfere With
His Assistants.

Mr. Lucien D. Fowler, formerly clerk
to the Assessment Commissioners Dut
now Chief of the Engineering Bureau
elect, said this morning that he nad
decided TO accept the appointment. Yes
terday he wasn't sure about it, although
his friends said confidently he would take
it. Today, however, there is no doubt
my reasons said Mr.. Fowler to a
News" reporter. for not accepting 1t
right off was because I wanted to have
certain things promised me-
Mr.. Fowler deplomaticallly refused to
say what these things We're, but it is
we'll known that the principal thing was
that Mr.. Fowler wished to have the ap-
pointment of his assistants in his own
hands and not to be tampered by
numskulls who belonged to this party or
that. and fer whom PLACE must pc
found. The Commissioners of the street
and Water Board 1t is said have promised
that he shall have free hand and not be
interfered with.
Mr.. Fowler would not say, this morn
ing, what changes he proposed to make
or what assistants he would appoint. lie
will not do so for some time, but observe
forms when they become necessary. His
bond will have to be fixed by the Board
of Finance, which does not meet until
November IT, but either tomorrow or Fri
day the Board will hold a special meet
ing to fix the bonds and approve of the
appointment.

SHERIDAN & SHEA PROTESTS.
Van Wrinkles sharp Let
ter To aIpe Aldermen.

At last nights meeting Of the Board of
Aldermen, Counsellor Marshall Van Win
kie, when the Sheridan & Shea resolution
came up for passage tried to speak, but
the worthy Aldermen brusquely refused
to entertain Alderman, Heaveys motion
to hear what the lawyer had to say. All
that Mr.. Van Wrinkle wanted was not TO
make a speech, but simply enter formal
protest Since he had no opportunity last
night to do so he sent to the City Clerk
this morning, to be entered on the MIN
utes, the following communications
1.-THE Sheridan & Shea Company desire
to have entered on the record OF your
meeting of last evening November y
their protest against any action Whatever
by your Board in the matter on their ap-
piication for building permit etc. Tney
wish TO have entered on your RECORDS,
connected with your refusal of their ap-
plfcation a statement by them that they
30 not recognize any legal right what
ever in your Board to deal with the ap-
nlication in question, in any way.
tThis is all that | desired to say, and
nothing more. when I was refused a
hearing last evening at the time your
vote on the matter was taken, oesplte
the unsought and gentlemanly courtesy
of Alderman Heayey towards me.
II merely desired to request your per-
mission to place such a protest on your
records in connection with your VoeliIs'
in order that the legal rights OF the COM
pany might be fully preserved.
Your Committee on Laws and Ordi-
nances accorded to me full ana falr
hearing at their pubic meetlng, hgio III
aonnecfion with this matter, and GER
tainly had no desire or intention of again
unnecessarily addressing myself to the
merits of the application.
s.It is certainly logical and customary,
however. to permit proper discussion by
Interested parties upon the coming in OF
a committee report, prior to action and
voting thereon. .ou
