Tenants on the Ground Floor of the
Central Market.

Assistant Corporation Attorney Taylor was
requested yesterday by members Of the coun-
Gil committee on public buildings to draw up
notices terminating the leases for the lower
floor Of the Market house. Mr.. Taylor stated
that, as he understood the request, all the
persons occupying space on the lower floor
of the Market house, with the exception of the
Manufacturers union and the cigar store, were
to be served with notice to remove.
The meeting OF the committee on public
buildings has not as yet been formally called.
although four Of the six members understand
that a session will be held either Monday or
Tuesday afternoon.
The report of the city treasurer for June
shows that s154 SO was collected for rents in
side the Market house during that month.
and $16050 from the same source for July.
AS one of the aldermen stated last evening.
1t would appear from these figures that the
revenue derived by the city from the rent OF
stalls in the Market house did not amount
to much, and that more real benefit would
be derived by allowing the Manufacturers
union the entire floor of the building at
nominal rent.
The occupants of the stalls which it is
proposed to vacate are much exercised over
the matter and will make an effort to re-
main in their present locations. The rent
paid to the city is low in comparison to what
stores in the immediate vicinity could be
secured for, and for this, if for no other
reason, the occupants do not care to vacate.

Bergen is a natural place to hold such an
exhibition because that city is the chief

pal business of the people, -
The exhibition was opened May l6 by the
crown prince of Norway and several German
princes. The occasion was celebrated with
great pomp, and the royal patrons OF the ex-
hbition have assisted in every way to make
it successful. All that relates to hsh i,,t ana
grounds. The capture of whale and seal is
illustrated, as well as the methods of curing
fish of all kinds and preparing them for

principal branches of the business pursued In
Norway. That country exports LOCO, ooo bar

The American exhibit which occupies a

The exhibition is not devoted entirely to
the fisheries. In connection with it is an
industrial exhibition. where is shown the
various arts in which the Norwegians excel.
Boat building is one of these. Specimens of
all kinds of craft. ancient and modern. are
shown. from the war boat of the vikings to
the modern passenger steamer. There are
also exhibited samples of Norwegian en-
broidery and lace, and in fact every de-

Consul f. H. Hobe, the Norwegian repre-
sentative in this city, has just received a
circular describing the exhibition. 1t con-
tains views of the various buildings the
grounds and varied information about the
city of Bergen and it's environs.

Press Feeders Claim They, Too, VIII
Be Called Out.

The press feeders strike did not progress
to any extent yesterday, and there was no
change in the situation until near evening,
when the employing job printers had meet
Ing decided not to recognize the press feed
ers union nor to treat with the men as an
organization. If this course is persevered in
the end of the strike is not yet in sight.
The pressmens union will not, SO far as
Is known at present, take any stand in the
matter. They went out temporarily and
asked for instructions from headquarters.
The instruction they received sent them back
to work and the press feeders are standing
alone. 1t was given out that the pressmen
did not join in the strike because of the fact
that the feeders did not take the usual
course agreed upon of giving thirty days no
tice of strike. This would preclude the
necessity of the allied crafts joining and
supporting them. 1t is contended by the
press feeders that thirty days notice was not
agreed upon and that when the matter is put
before the chiefs they will be Joined by
others in the strike.
sThe action of the employees in refusing to
recognize the union makes it clear that the
At some of the offices yesterday there were
a few applicants for the places vacated by
the striking men, but their places are by no
means generally filled. The men are quite
firm as the employers and declare that
they will not return to work until their de-
mands are met.
One of the employers in speaking of the
strike, said that they did not regard the
press feeders as strictly skilled labor and
that young men could easily pick up the
trade in a few months. In spite of this
statement there were very few job presses
that were being run in this town yesterday
except by the pressmen.
