Mr. r. II. Wright desires it to be
understood that he is not opposed to

the published report of his remarks at

stated that "if ne was reliably informed
the present reform movement in the
Fourth Ward was being engineered by
Republicans" lie further says that If
the Reform League puts forward good
Democrats in the primary for the NUM-
cipnl offices he reserves the right. as an
individual. to vote for them. AS citi-
zen he naturally prefers good Demo-
crat to a had one, and in what he said
for the good Of the club he distinctly
stated that candidates Democracy
must be clear in order to get mis- sup
port, as he would not lend his vote to
aid any cloaked Republican scheme.

DISCUSSED BY UNION MEN
Talk About the Dissolution of the
building Trades Council.

The dissolution Of the Building Trades
Council which took place at a meeting
held TUESDAY night was the subject of
much conversation last night among the
trades unionists of the District. Several
prominent members OF local organized la
Dor were seen and asked their opinion as
10 the result OF the dissolution of the
council. II was the general opinion that
a body Of similar functions and composed
Of like material will not be formed. at
least not in the near future.
A labor leader who has always taken Il
prominent part In the affairs Of the build
ing trades stated that in his opinion a
building trades branch would be organ
lied within the Central Labor Union, and
that all matters pertaining to the welfare
OF the trades will be looked after through
that body. Such an arrangement as this
he said, would be entirely satisfactory to
the members Of the unions formerly affil-
lated with the defunct council. because
they. with few exceptions. are all trades
unionists. A proposition along this line.
he stated, will in all probability be sub
mitted at the Central Labor Union on Mon
day night next.

of the "Roycroft Print Shop" which has
discovered East Aurora. y. Y. to
the world, lectured last night at the Ma

Of the Roycrofters and their work OF
making books and things from the be
ginning, when he and a friend printed
the first copy Of the f"Philistine' to
roast" Mr.. Box because he said widows
should not wear tan shoes. to the pres
ent time, when his big establishment is
making and binding beautiful books. and
making androns and heavy oak furniture,
and doing a dozen other things a little
better than other people are doing them.
The audience was full Of "Philistine"
readers, and most of those who went to
hear MIN without knowing his work came
away devoted Hubbardites without
further training, so that it was q sympa-
thetic and much enjoying gathering.
Mr.. Hubbard is a tall man, with a look
like William Jennings Bryan, which he
accentuates by smiling after Mr.. Bryan's
manner. In his outward appearance this
smile and his widely flowing black scarf,
like woman's jabOt. are the most strik-
ing features. His entire lecture is a COM
bination of smiling philosophy and humor,
dressed and fashioned in odd Individual
ways like his jabot. scarf, hanging outside
his black frock coat.
Mr.. Hubbard has made fine success Of
his work in East Aurora. he says People
are buying the things his woTkmen make
more and more every year. and the num-

THE PLAGUE IN FRISCO.
Mayor PheInn TeIegrapbs the Facts
TO the District mmissiOners.

James d. Phelan, mayor OF San Fran
cisco. has sent a communication to the
District Commissioners relative to the bu-
bonic plague in that city. He states that
press reports Of the disease there have
been greatly exaggerated. and he desires
thar the true facts be made known In
Eastern cities. out of justice to san Fran
cisco. Mayor Phelan says
Eastern papers just received refer TO
sporadic case Of bubonic plague in San
Francisco The Board of Health reported
such case on March 8, twenty days ago.
Since then our Chinatown has been thor
oughy inspected and disinfected. and no
other case has appeared. All persons now
freely visit the district as usual. On &C
count of the vigilance and efficiency OF
the local health authorities and the Fed
eral quarantine there is no future danger"
Mayor Phelan expresses regret that a
wrong impression should have gone abroad
through press reports. regarding the plague
in his city. and he hiss communicated with
Washington and other cities in the East
to deny officially that more than the one
case has, up TO this time. appeared in San
Francisco.
