STREET SWEEPERS'
RECENT CUT IN WAGES
Action of City Engineer in Denying
Them Pay for July 4, Raises Issue
in Council.

The 100 or more white uniformed
men, who compose st. PauTs street
sweeping force, have q grievance. City
Engineer Rundlett cut heavily into
their weekly stipend by denying them
pay for the Fourth of July, and several
hours when they were compelled to lay
off on account of rain, and accordingly
they have entered a protest.
AT the meeting Of the board Of alder
men last night Aid. Dahlquist and
Bantz took up the cudgel in their de-
Tense, cOntending that Mr.. Rundlett's
act was unauthorized. This all oc-
CURED during the consideration Of the
pay rolls and was prolific of consid-
cradle discussion on both sides.
Both Mr.. Dahlquist and Mr.. Bantz
~contended that the sweepers were paid
a weekly salary and it was unlawful
to cut them for legal holidays. Mr..
Rundlett, however, contended that
these men worked in the capacity Of
laborers and were paid while actually
employed. Mr.. BantZ and Mr.. Dahl
quist, however, refused to agree with
him and sarcastically remarked that
the other city employees did not suffer
on account of the Fourth of July or
any other legal holiday.
The matter has found it's way into
the ranks Of the laboring fraternity
generally n promises to rise to the
dignity of an issue. Petitions praying
that the system adopted by Mr.. Rund-
lett be rejected by h council are now
being circulated.

otherwise annoy Towser they must ex-

bitten several children in the n%eighbor-
hood, and it vas also shown hat the
attack on the part of the dog always
followed an assault with stone on the

HOLD
LIVELY STREET RIOT
Someone Yelled "scab" and Then
Things Begin to Fill the At
mosphere-Six Arrests.

There was a small riot among the
Great Northern boilermakers on East
Third street between Wacouta and
Sibley streets yesterday afternoon, and
six of the participants were arrested
on a disorderly charge. The trouble
grew out of the strike of the boiler
makers which has recently been set
tied. Several of the men who had
comeEto st. Paul to take the place of
the strikers were spending their wages
before leaving the city last night, and
many of them were more or less drunk.
In some a crowd of men who
had gone out when the strike was call
ed or who were in sympathy with the
crowd, gathered, and the word "scab"
was passed along the line.
When officers Calvin and Williams
arrived on the scene of the fray there
were over twenty men engaged in pum-
melting one another, with an occasional
one using a bludgeon with good effect.
The men did not have a good start,
but they worked industriously, so that
there was scarcely a man hat did not
show traces of some injury. Those un-
der arrest at the central station gave
the following names: Mike McMahan,
Cavan, John Mcdonald, H.. A. Cut
ting; Charles Davis and Pat Meighan.

ALDERMEN SUSTAIN
MAYORS PAVING VETO
Board Endorses His Stand on West
Seventh Street Sand
stone Order.

T~he,board of aldermen last evening
sustained Mayor Smiths veto of the
West Seventh street sandstone paving
order. On the taking of the vote a new
preliminary order was introduced by
Aid. Rohland.
1 order to hurry the proposed ma
cadamiZing of Concord street a new
preliminary order was introduced by
Aid. Moriarty. 1t requires that the
street.-the improved to Arthur and sets
aside $4,000 to be used in the payment
Of the cost of street intersections. This
money was appropriated at the last
meeting of the conference committee.
Aid. Dahlquist introduced three pre-
liminary orders of considerable mport-
ance. One provides for the paving of
East Fifth street from Broadway to
Pine, and the other two the curbing
and grading of Pine and Olive street
from Fourth to Seventh street. These
Improvements are asked for by a num-
Der of the manufacturing firms located
in that district. The paving is wanted
by the several packing houses located
on East Fifth street.
The final order for the paving of
Robert street from Seventh to Univer-
Sitye with brick was approved by the
board. 1t will now go back to the
board of public works, and bids will be
called for.
At the request of the Omaha road
permission WaS granted the company
to grade and improve at it's own ex-
pense Edward street from Fillmore to

be used in bringing the street up to a

IN Seventh Ward-Council -FavorabIy
Inclined to New System, Which May
Go Into General Use at Next City

st. Paufis the first city West of
New York to order the collection of it's
vote by the use of machinery. The

Initiative in the passage of a resolu-
ton authorizing it, and the first trial
Will be had at the next general election
to be held in November. 1t is expected
that the assembly win aequiesce at its
meeting Thursday evening. .a1 sG
This does not mean that the entire
vote at the next general election will
be cast by voting machines, but is for
the purpose of permitting a test of the
feasibility by the establishing Of one
or more machines in several of the vot-
ing precincts of the city. If they prove
a success all of the precincts will be
equipped in time for the next election.
To Be Tried in Seventh Ward.
Aid. Corning secured the passage of
the resolution last night adopting the
use of the voting machine, and in de-
ference to his wishes the first precinct
of his ward, the Seventh, was selected
as the precinct in which the trial will
be made. The resolution, while desig-
mating this particular precinct, also al
lows its use in all the other precincts
If an equipment of: machines can be
secured, but this is not likely, as a
tedious procedure must be gone
through before a contract for ma
chimes can be placed. The machine is
to be used in this particular precinct
will beSloaned@by tHe@Jnited Standard
Voting Machine company, which is en-
~deavorlng to land the contract for the
E~entire equipment of the city.
The passage of the resolution au-
thorizing the use of voting machines
lat this time was in conformity with
the election law, which demands that
the adoption of such machine shall be
at least three months before election.
The council must thenfget together and
draft rules and regulations for its use,
which must have the sanction. of the
attorney general before they become
binding.
The members of the council are gen
orally agreed on the d~esirability. of
machine voting, and are only delaying
the purchase of a full equipment of
machines until away is found of salts
tying the present charter in their
purchase. When these preliminaries
are completed bids will be called for
and the contract placed.

The promiscuous erection of heavy
overhead signs is to be curtailed. Ac-
Cording to one city official the number
is becoming entirely too great and a
halt for safety purposes is to be called.
BY the terms of the new building
law, which, like the new charter, can
not be tempered with, hanging signs of
all kinds are forbidden. They are
deemed dangerous, and for this n
reason their erection was stopped.
Despite this, however, the law is wink
ed at, no attempt is made to enforce
it, in fact, it is a dead letter.
Prior to the adoption of the new
building laws, the erection of an over
head sign required the securing of q
permit from the council. Before Civ
ing it, a bond to indemnify the city in
case of an accident resulting from the
fall of the sign was insisted on. This
bond, in the majority of. cases, ranged
in amount from $4,000 to $4,000. Now
no bond is given. Should the council
be asked for a permit, as under the old
system, it would have to be refused.
Some of the electric signs to be
found along the principal business
streets represent a heavy investment;
they are really works of art, and be-
sides furnish a vast amount of illumi-
nation. Fol his reason the law re-
garding them is not enforced.
Many of Them Dangerous.
Of late, however, these signs have
become decidedly numerous, and, as q
natural result, they nave ben put up in
a number of instances without proper
regard for the safety of those who
daily pass beneath them. 1t is these
kind that are to be curtailed. 1t is
probable that the removaI of some Of
the most dangerous will be demanded.
Their presence is a constant menace in
the shape Of a costly lawsuit, and I'M
der the present conditions YOU neces-
state payment by the city in the event
that a judgment was obtained.
one dealer in electric signs says that
fully $4,000 has been Invested in this
kind of publicity the past year. This
includes the cost of maintenance in
the shape of light, which the local
lighting companies furnish.
