WILLING 70 COMPROMISE
CARPENTERS AND CONTRACTORS
LIKELY to- REACH AMICABLE
AGREEMENT
COMMITTEES WILL CONFER
No Ultimatums of Any Kind Issued
as the Result of the Meeting
of Union Last
Night.

A meeting Of the carpenters was held
at Assembly hall last night, but it had
hardly been called to order when COM
mittee of five contractors appeared and
asked that the union appoint a commit
tee of five to arrange matters with them
Thursday night. 1t was stated after the
meeting that the carpenter contractors
had full power to act both for the other
contractors and for the Builders Ex-
change; also that the comm ttee appoint
ed by the union, as the contractors re-
quested, had full power to act for the
union. The meeting Thursday night will
therefore be of Importance for the rea-
son that whatever the committees do the
respective organizations Will back up.
No ultimatum of any kind was issued
last night by the contractors, and there
were no discussions of an interesting
nature. The committee was asked for to
give both organizations an opportunity
to present their side of the case. The
contractors as much as limited that they
were anxious tos settle the difficulties
existing between the carpenters and the
bosses a1flicably, and might even be will
ing to compromise in a measure. The
carpenters, therefore, profess at least to
take cheerful view of things.
Following is the committee of contract
ors: Tim Reardon, ]. j. Donahue, George
Grant, John M. Carlson, Tom Brady;
and following the committee of carpen-
tiers: Fred Jenny, John Jackson, Gus
Carlson, Edward Allen and William
WYman.
The carpenters union will hold meet
ing in Assembly hall Sunday afternoon
and consider the result Of the meeting
Sunday night. Having given the COM
mittee appointed by it full power to act,
1t will, of course, ratify whatever action
the committee takes 49,

At the meeting of the assembly com

test against the granting of the license

Miesen would not conduct the place any
better than did his son. The doctors re-
marks threatened to consume too much
time and it was with dis Guilty that t
was finally brought to a close. Mr.. ME-

PAVING CLAUSE PASSED
ALDERMEN VOTE IN FAVOR OF IN
DEMNTTY CLAUSE AND GUAR
ANTEE Fond

After a spirited discussion extending
over a neriod of weeks and intersperseo
with threats Of retaliation and attempts
to show that the asphalt trust was up
permost in the scheme, the board OF al
dermen last night passed the paving
measure which provides hereafter that
all contracts shall contain indemnifylng
features which will protect the city Tor
a. period of ten years Shorn or It's
technical terms and legal phrases TINS
indemnifying feature is a demand FOR
q ten year guarantee, a surety pohu Ior
an amount equal to the contract and the
retention Of Is per cent Of the contract
price.
At the meeting last evening, City En-
gineer Claussen, the corporation attorney
and several of the aldermen, among them
Aid Knauft Bantz and Hunt, attempted
to convince the majority by int1matlnS
trusts and alleging illegalities, but 1t was
of little avail, the finish If anything SHOW
ing a sentiment stronger for its passage
than when it was first introduced. The
vote at the close was seven to four, AID
Bantz. Hunt, Knauft and Dalquist voting
| in the negative.
The legal department reported the com
promise effected between the city and
the telephone company, and on It's recon-
mendation the amount agreed upon, 49,
561 81, was accepted. The amount at
first demanded by the company was $4,-
S95. a.
In a statement Of the city finances,
Comptroller McCardy reported that the
fund for paving street intersections was
exhausted. E. T. Murphy was granted
permit for the erection of frame shed
on the library lot adjoining the store OF
Lennon &, Gibbons. On recommendation
of AID Murphy, M. ]. Donavan was made
an inspector of paving at a per diem Of
3d.
The action of the engineering depart
ment in changing of the hours Of labor
from eight to ten in the street cleaning
department called forth a vigorous pro-
test from members of the Trades and
Labor assembly, a goodly number Of
whom were present.
The board gave it's approval to the vol
luminous building ordinances.
The Omaha Railroad company asked
consideration of an ordinance giving
them the right of way for switching pur-
poses on the West side. The ordinance
is one almost similar to an instrument
introduced some weeks ago.

SURE ENOUGH Old T|NERS
MEN WHO BLAZED WAY TtEROTrcT1
MINNESOTA FORESTS TO
MEET AGAIN
THEY ARE THE REAL PIONEERS
VIII Hold Annual Business Meeting
Mt Capitol and Afterwards
Dine at the Mer-
chants.

Close on the heels of the meeting of
the Territorial pioneers will come The
annual convention and banquet OF the
Old Settlers association, an organization
which is looked upon with more respect
and love each year by the ordinary ''oId
resident" The members Of the associa-
ton pride themselves on being the real
pioneers, inasmuch as no one is eligible to
join unless he came here before January
l, 1850. In other words they are the
forty-nners," and can talk of old days
without fear of being contradicted.
According to information gained in tie
historical library in the capitol building,
there are now about sixty men who be-
long to the association, and many of
these are out of the state, so it can be
safely assumed that only the "old stand
bys' will be in evidence, June !, the
great day. The settlers will meet at
noon in the rooms of the State Historical
association, and first listen to the min
utes of the last annual meeting The re-
port of the deaths in the ranks of the
association will then be listened to- and
fitting resolutions will be drawn up
The old-timers will then march to TIE
Merchants hotel where they intend to
have an old-fashioned dinner sesved In
the old-fashioned way The Merchants
has been selected because it is on the
site of the old Merchants hotel which
was stamping ground of the settlers
in the days when st. Paul was just be-
ginning to grow. At the head of the
table will be the president of the assoc
citation, Isaac N. GoCdhue, of Minneap-
oils, and next to him 1t is expected that
Alexander Ramsey will be seen. 1t goes
without saying that meeting of the
association would be Incomplete if he
were not present. One figure will be
greatly missed this year, and that is
Russell Blakeley, who occupied one of
the positions of honor last June He was
always known as Captain in St. Paul,
having been an old river man. He bore
the distinction Of having brought more
old settlers in the Sanity City than
any other man, and was greatly be-
loved by his friends up to the time of
his death, Feb. i, 1901 After the ban
quet proper, toasts will be in order
and the various members Of the assCcia-
ton will tell about how things were here
when they were young men. Their re-
mfniscenses are always of an interesting
nature, and are preserved in the histor-
tcal library. Among those expected to
be present are W. P. Murray. ]. D. Nc
Comb, Lorenzo Hoyt, John Rogers,
Nathan Myrick, D. A. Baker, B. H. Ran
dali, M D. Grover, J. B. CLANCY, A. L.
