VOTED TO STRIKE.

San Francisco, April 19.-The local division of the Amalgamated associa- ton of Street Railway Employes voted last night to go on strike next Sunday morning. The strike will affect all the lines in this city except two. The em- ployes demand 9 cents an hour, a ten hour day and recognition of the union. After the announcement of the result of the vote it was said the strike might begin this afternoon President. Cor nelius of the Union declined to state the exact hour at which the men would be asked to leave the cars as that would forewarn their employers. He said that 1t was, hoped that 2.0OO men would quit work, but that the leaders did not expect to be able to tie up the street car railway system of the city immediately. Those among the owners and managers of the lines who are most familiar with the situation say there will be no strike, the union not being strong enough in membership to affect seriously the operation of any line of the street car system of the city.

MT Taylor said that his firm, meaning of course the Randolph Gloves company, spent about $500 last year among sthumbugs" By this he meant alleged benefits for one kind and another of societies. persons and parties. These have become so common, so annoying to manufactur- ing firms and presumably to others also, that out of the nuisance there has. sprung a concern which insures against fraud For $25 a year this concern furnishes information regard ing "humbugs" and objects worthy of encouragement.

THE NEW HosTELRY.
Plans Prepared for Messrs Truman and Ludington,s Big Hotel.


 Plans have been completed for the grandest, most modern and the best hotel that can be seen between New York and Boston. The new hotel Will be situated on what is known as the Greene Kendrick property on west Main street and will be erected by local stock company. The estimated cost of the hotel Is S200,000. Messrs Truman and Ludington two of Wa terbury's well known citizens, are the leading figures in the new enterprise
 The Mattatuck hotel. for that will be the name of the new hostelry, will have frontage of 147h feet on West Main street and ad epth of 152 feet. The building will be in the shape of q W. On the ground floor there will be five stores besides the main en- trance, which will be in the center of the building. The length of the en- trance alone will be 64 feet. The five stores can be transformed into two large stores if circums tances require it. The entrance will open into a large rotunda, off of which will be a barber shop, cafe, grill room, a din- ing room where gentlemen may smoke, and a dining room where smoking will be prohibited. There will also be telephone and telegraph offices. On the second floor there will be ladies' reception and toilet rooms. Between the two dining rooms there will be a balcony for musicians so that the din- CTS and also the people in the rotunda may hear sweet music discoursed. \ It will be six story building. The top floor will be designed for club, banquet room and a banquet hall. The basement will be fitted up for Turkish baths. There will be an ex- tension in the rear where the kitchen, laundry. boiler and engine rooms and the sleeping apartments for the help will be situated. This will be entire ly separate from the main part of the hotel.
 There will be TO rooms exclusive of the rooms on the top floor and the pub lie rooms. There will be 42 rooms on each floor. excluding the first and sixth floors. One hundred and thirty five of the rooms will have a view of the park. There will be bath between every other room. The rooms that will not have a bath will have run ming water The floors will be all
 
 service for the club on the top floor
 An important feature of the new ho- tel will be roof garden which will be situated in the open court over the main entrance, between the two wings of the building. There will be two elevators, one for passengers, the oth- CT for baggage,
 The new hotel will be absolutely fireproof. No wood will be used in the construction. .The doors and trim mings will be cast from material made from asbestos, which. is inde- structible and absolutely fireproof. The building will be constructed of brick and terra cotta and will be of steel construction. It will be the only ab- solutely fireproof hotel between New York and Boston. 1t will be fully q year before the new hotel will be com pleted, but when it is finished it will be the finest hotel between New York and Boston.

COURT ACCEPTS BOND.
Estes G. Rathbone's Fight for Release
 in Havana.


 Havana, April 19.-The audiencia court late yesterday afternoon accepted the bond of $1O0,OO0 offered by a tidel- ity company for the appearance of Estes G. Rathbone. The court requires, however, that this bond must be drawn before a notary. This involves much time and expense, as the nOtary's fees and state tax must be paid A writ of habeas corpus was filed yesterday to compel the court to accept bail Ra.h- bones attorneys insist that the proceed ings be continued. They claim that the bond should be drawn before the court, as is customary, without further delay or further expense. In ihe habeas corpus petition Rathbone's att torneys declare the courts delay to be illegal and intimate that the court may be impeached for such action. The habeas corpus petition will be heard to-. day
 A number of Cuban senators and rep resentatives-electh have sent a telegram to President-elect Estrada Palma at Gibara, petitioning him to ask the United States to pardon all Americans now under arrest in Cuba Rathbone' s case seems to have stirred Cuban senti- ment strongly in his favor, and the movement to ask for a general pardon is prompted by this sentiment
