NOT HN EAR-CHEWER.
Ex-Officer J. c. Moloney lnodver- tently Placed in False
 Position.

The story in yesterdays Call that Re corder Glynn is to be hauled over the coals by the Grand Jury has set the of ficials and clerks in the City Hall to talking, and while some were surprised there were others who did not take the account of the charges made kindly, and these were mostly the employees of the said official. There was one statement that did cause surprise to all, and that was that the complainant, J. G. Nal oney, had been dismissed from the Po- lice Department for biting off piece of a brother officers ear. As a fact an un- intentional injustice was done to Mir. Maloney. The latter has never developed any cannibalistic propensities or taste for human meat. The facts of the case were that ex-Of1cer Nels Field got into trouble with some fellows near the old race track and one of the gang bit off piece of the bluecoat's ear
 Officer Maloney was in that district and failed to arrest the ear-chewing rough taking the position that the row between Field and his assailant was of a per- sonal nature and that if Officer Field

 TAKEN AT DUNN California Travellers Resiqn From the Larger AssO-
 citation. Inner Circle" Men Relieve Their Feelings in a Most Caustic
 Resolution.

The book telling the narrowing story of the war between the members of the California Commercial Travellers Associ- ation and Emmett Dunn is almost writ ten One of the final chapters was com pleted on Friday at a meeting of the 'inner-circle men At that meeting the following resolution was adopted unani- mously:
 Whereas, Emmett Dunn, president of the San Francisco Commercial Travellers Association, has not been content with making an uncalled-for fight against the representatives of some of the largest and most influential firms in this city, deal ing with them in a manner supported by no decent methods of parliamentary procedure and showing that his acts were animated by personal malice, but has pro ceeded to the extremity of making it ap pear that the commercial travellers of this city in general are working against the interests of the retail grocers; therefore, be 1t
 Resolved, That the members of the Cali fornia Commercial Travellers Association as body resign from the San Francisco Commercial Travellers Association, thus showing that as q body and individually we sympathize with the retail grocers in the existing trouble and wish to work in harmony with them.

BIC RAILW WAY
 ENTERPRISE The Stockton and TuOl- umne County Rail-
 road Company.
Line to Be Completed to Copper Opolis by August
 Next.
Eneroetic Women at the Head of the PrOje ject-AdVantages of
 the Road.

The Stockton and Tuolumne County Railroad is an enterprise of vast i'm portance to California. Headed by women and men of energy and backed by large capital the project of building the line is now well under way. and will be speedily pushed to completion. Commencing at Stockton the road will be in operation as far as Copperopolis by August of this year, and as far as Sonora and Summerville by December.
 The personnel of the company is as follows: Annie Kline Rikert, president; Jabish Clement, vice-president; Maggie Downing BraInard, treasurer; Robert S. Clarke, secretary.
 The directors are Annie Kline Rikert. Maggie Downing Brainard, Hannah IeweIIa Lane, Jabish Clement and So- phia Bother Gould.
 The characteristic features of the country traversed by the new line are prominent. Its western terminus IS at Stockton, where communication with tide-water is had. The Stanislaus River is crossed at COpperopolis. Within a distance of sixty miles on a direct line eastward the principal mines of the mother lode are reached at sonora, SouIsbyvilIe, Cherokee and Summer vile (Carter's postoffice). The survey of the road follows this line, except to avoid obstacles which naturally inter- vene in a mountainous country. The first twenty miles or so east of Stock ton is through a grain region, then few miles of pasture lands, reaching a mile or two into Calaveras County. Then comes the belt of copper mines, of which Copperopolis is the center, with successful gold mines in the same NI.a eastern terminus of the road at Sum merville. The Stanislaus River is crossed between Reynolds Ferry and the Great Canyon of the StanislauS, and the route is thence up the divide between Mormon and Bear creeks, crossing the mother lode between the Alameda and Rawhide mines. A short tunnel will be needed west of Copper opolis and another through Table Mountain basaltic formation stand ing like a wall from 200 to 300 feet above the surrounding country, but not very thick.

 The business to be done by the road will be derived from the grain and hay of the agricultural or western end while the mines will furnish vast quantities of concentrated sulphurets and rebellious ores which can most easily be reduced at the large estab- lishments on the coast The high transportation charges have almost prohibited this class of freight.

LABOR'S SONS
 TO JOIN HANDS
The Breach Between the Gen. tral Bodies May Soon Be
 Healed.
Joint Arbitration Committees Ap- pointed to Take the Matter
 in Hand.

The prospects are that within a few weeks at the furthest the two great cen tral labor bodies in this city will be unit ed, or at least a compromise will be eff fected whereby they can work in har- mony.
 The original central body Is the San Francisco Labor Council, chartered by the American Federation of Labor, but some years ago there was a division in the ranks and a number of the affiliated unions drew out As the majority of the seeding unions were of the building trades. an independent body known as the Building Trades Council was formed which has since operated very success fully. The carpenters also formed an in dependent body known as the Carpenters District Council. but a few months ago all the Carpenters unions in the city sent representatives to the Building Trades Council, although they still have their District Council in which grievances are first ventilated.
 From time to time efforts have been made to unite the two main bodies. Com mittees have been appointed from each side and conferences innumerable held, but all with the same result-a disagree ment over some trivial point and widen ing of the breach. When the Kelso case was first brought before the attention of the Union men the Labor Council appoint ed a committee to work in cooperation with the committees from the other two bodies, and ever since that time the ele- ment favoring affiliation has been gradu- ally growing stronger, until at the last meeting of the Building Trades Council a committee was appointed to take the mat ter in hand and a communication sent to the Labor Council requesting 1t to take similar action. The communication was received at last nights meeting and the request at once compiled with
 The committees will first endeavor to have the two bodies brought directly to- gether and incorporated into one another but if they are unable to do this they hope to have joint arbitration commit tee appointed which will look after all matters of common interest.

this granite and marble. This road just reaches the great sugar pine belt of the Sierras and very soon the lumber trade will be a grand item.
 The cost of the road has been esti- mated at from $700,0 to S750,00 Heavy rails will be used and plenty of ties to support them. The surveys, in charge of Henry A. Brainard, chief engineer, have not been so far com pleted that his estimates are available He has assumed 119 feet per mile as the maximum grade, and if possible will reduce it to 106.
 Estimates of the amount of freight to be carried and the development of the mining region, which is now fairly booming, promise that from the date of the first train profit will result and that dividends will be made at the end of the first season. Stock is being rap idly taken by the Tuolumne County people who say they are bound to make it a peoples railroad.

THEIR KLONDIKE OUTFITS.
One Party of One Hundred Per-
 sons Cominq From Indiana.

Reports received by the Alaska Trade Committee from all parts of the country continue to be most encouraging and in> dicate that the number who will make San Francisco their outfitting point in their journey to the far north has not been overestimated.
 E. C. Sherman of Chicago has gathered from the different parts of Indiana, in- cluding some nine or ten towns, a party of over 100, whom he has interviewed in dividually and has persuaded to come this way. Much good work is being done in this way and many people have been in terviewed who have signified their inten- tion of coming, but this party has posi- lively decided to come this way.
 Arrangements have been made to take space in the Mining Fair, and an exhibit showing just what is needed will be placed there. It is contemplated that a cooking department will be added and the preparation of food used in the Klon- dike will be demonstrated. The literature of the committee will be distributed and an attractive display will be made.

 Another objection to the independent union is that 1t has no authority to issue label. and 1t is impossible to have suit of clothing bearing the union label made in San Francisco. So far, Mir. Christopherson has been quite successful, and has worked up a great deal of en- thusiasm.
 Next Thursday evening a mass-meeting. to which all journeymen tailors in the city are invited, will be held at 1159 Slls- sion street, and final action will then be taken. If the local union refuses to join the international as a body new union will be formed of those willing to join.
