HERMANN KULLMANN, PRESI- DENT OF KULLMANN, SALE & CO, LEATHER DEALERS, 106 BAT FIERY STREET-The whole story was told in The Cali this morning. I was led to believe that the advertisement would De gratultous, so you can imag- inc my surprise when a bill for SIT was presented by the Bulletin. It hasn't been paid, and never will be paid. I don't know how the game was worked, but l do know that there was some hocus-pocuS about it. I wasn't hyp- notized, and didn't sign any contract, so the Bulletin has no claim against the firm.
 I. S. ACKERMAN, one of the mana gers of the American Crockery and Glassware Company, at 10S and no Pine street, Is very indignant over the deceptions practiced on the firm "The solicitor" said he, told Mr. Block that the Bulletin was going to give the merchants a write-up that would cost but few dollars-just enough to cover the cost of the cut and the type set ting. A few days ago a bill for $70 was presented and we refused to pay it, for there is a business principle at stake It is not the amount we object to, but the deceptive methods practiced by the solicitor. We would rather spend S50O0 than pay an unjust bill like the one presented.

 H. MOHR of the South San Francisco Packing and Provision Company, 21S Front street was absent from his place of business yesterday. The book keeper said that he had heard the con- verSation between MT.

The bookkeeper heard the solicitor use the words, "A dollar won't break you, any way" The bill that was sent in was for S114. It is stated that reasonable settlement will be made, but that no such sum as mentioned will be paid under any consideration.

REAL ESTATE MEN SPEAK,
Tbey Will Oppose oD Objectionable Plumbing OrdiDonce Before
 the Supervisors.

About dozen representatives of the larger real estate firms met yesterday in the offices of O. F. van Rhein & Co.,, 636 Market street, to con- slider the questions involved in the proposed plumbing ordinance, to which all real estate men are strongly op- posed. O. F. von Rhein was elected chairman, and the proposition was dis Cussed from every standpoint.
 There are sixty-eight sections in the proposed ordinance, all of which are couched in technical terms, and the principal objection to it from the real ty men is, that it will permit irrespon- sible deputies to condemn the plumb ing of all houses over five years old and put in new pipes and drains. They state that they are for anything in the nature of an improvement, but regard this provision as harmful.
 It was finally decided that a commit tee go before the Health and Police Committee of the Board of Supervisors to argue the question Friday next, at 2 D m

I asked him how a paper could publish such things free of charge, and he told me that the Bulle- tin people were willing to defray the expense of gratuitously publishing a write up and cut of each business house in the city, as it would materi- ally benefit the metropolis and also in crease the circulation of the jubilee edition in the Eastern cities. He showed me the list of merchants who had already agreed to advertise in the paper Not wishing to be excepted from them in matter of this kind Gas I thought the Bulletin people were do- ing it for the good of the State) agreed to have my establishment de- scribed and exhibited before the pub lie.

 He then suggested that most of the other houses had cuts of their build ings. and inquired if we had any cleo trotypes that he could use, as 1t would very much improve the ap- rearance of the article.

MISERABLY SWINDLED.

We were miserably swindled and do not hesitate to say so openly. Our experience was about the same as that related by the Excelsior Glove Company in The Call. We paid S65 because we did not care to have a lawsuit about so small a matter. Now that the Bulletin has compromised with the glove company and other firms we. intend to take measures to recover the amount from the paper. The solicitor came here and distinctly stated that the price for the write-up would be S1 an inch. He explained fully what an inch meant, and we were astonished when the bill came in for s65. Our bookkeeper was certain that there was some mistake and that only s6 30 was charged. When we asked to see the man who made the contract or called to see us we were told that he was only solicitor and was no longer there. We insisted that the man who came to see us should be produced. but Wolf would not produce him. We were bunkoed, and concluded at first to say nothing about 1t. believing that we were the only house taken in. Now that others come forward and admit that they have been done up by the. same game we are willing to speak. That is the reason we telephoned to The Call office as soon as we read the state ment of the Excelsior Glove Company. We have all the papers, including the letter from the Bulletins attorney demanding instant payment on threat of instituting suit. At first we said if we have been such jackasses as to sign a contract without Knowing what it contained we ought to nav but the dollar line was never men toned by the solicitor.

The Bulletin does not seem to ap- preciate that the exposure of its meth ods has been made more in sorrow than in anger. It has not the intellec- tual grasp to understand that the task is one of pain; that mere recognition of the fact that any paper is rotten from the core out must cause discom- fort to decent journalism. If it could realize that the exposure is made with a desire not only to protect the com munity but to have the Bulletin see it. self as others see it, perhaps it would be grateful, and ultimately led into the paths of rectitude, atOning by fasting probably enfCrced-for it's career of crime.
