The MiIIers' Side.

To offset this John Washburn, as the
spokesman for the millers, yesterday
made the following statement as to
why the millers refuse to arbitrate:
"The employing millers' refusal to ar
bitrate should not be construed to indi-
cate that they have assumed a dicta-
torial or oppressive attitude toward the
men.
Consent to arbitration implies a
willingness to compromise. Arbitration
almost invariably results in compro-
mise. Employees in Minneapolis flour
mills have already been conceded a bet

the mill employees at other competing
points.
Further concessions here mean that

NEED AUTUMN PRODUCTS
AND EXHIBITS OF WINE

ducers Relative to Making
Displav at st. Louis.

Secretary Willis of the California Com
mission TO the St. Louis Exposition has
addressed all county committees and col
lectors in the State who are getting exhib-
its for the st. Louis show, and has in
structed them regarding the exhibits that
are needed. The preparation of processed
fruit so he instructs, should be followed
up by collection of all autumn products
that are available, among them corn in

hemp or ramie on the stalk, threshed
grain, beans and seeds, broom corn, Egyp-
tan corn. pampas plumes Kaffr corn,
bamboo and everything else in this line

there is no doubt that the display of pro-
cessed fruits already prepared in the sew
eral counties and by the Commissioners
will be great, but so far the counties have
given little attention TO securing exhibits
mentioned in his letter.
Secretary Willis has already addressed
letter to the wine men of the State. in
which he says that only fifteen wine
makers have promised to date to partici-
pate in the special wine exhibit to be
made At least thirty wineries ought to
be represented TO fill up the space that

Leon Z. Prescott, secretary. 1t was re-
ferred to the Street Committee.
Supervisor Connor explained that the
franchise was practically the same as
that asked for by the Bay Shore Railway
Company, which was denied last year.
Common said that he had never been as
sured by the signers of the petition that
complete information regarding the rail-
way company would be forthcoming at
the proper time. He then introduced a
proposed ordinance covering the grant of
franchise saying that the petitioner de-
sired to have the matter acted upon by
the present board.

PLAN To REFUND
SPECIAL TAXES
Supervisors Consider
Resolution to Return
Collections.
Ordinance to Suppress Clean
ing Machines Referred
to Committee.

The Board of Supervisors yesterday re-
ferred to the Judiciary Committee reso-
luton requesting the City and County At
torney to render to it an opinion as to the
right of the city to refund the taxes coli
lected under the special levy of 1902 for
schoolhouses and a hospital in case the
proposed issue of bonds shall be approved
by the voters, and to the proceedings
or steps to be taken by the board for the
purpose of authorizing and directing such
refunding. The resolution recites as fol-
lows:
The special levy made by the board in the
year 1902 for taxes to be used in the acquisi-
ton and construction of new school buildings
and City and County Hospital has been ad-
judged invalid by the Superior Court and a
judgment has been recovered against the city
by John R. Whitney for the amount of such
taxes paid by him under protest and for the
amount of his costs and numerous suits are
now pending against the city by other tax
payers to recover said taxes and their costs;
also that proposition to issue bonds for the
purpose of raising money with which TO ac-
quire and construct said school buildings and
hospital is about to be submitted to the voters
of this city and county, and If the same shall
the special levy aforesaid will not be needed
for said purpose. and 1t will not be nee
essary fer the city TO incur any further ex-
pense in prosecuting an appeal from the afore-
said judgment in defending the suits afore-
said or incur any further liability for
the costs OF the plaintiffs in said suits.
Braunhart explained that the intent Of
the resolution was to ascertain If the
city had power to return the special taxes
to those who had not filed protests. Bran
denstein declared that under the State
law those who did not protest could not
get their money back.
Ordinances were passed to print order
ing grades to be changed at certain points
on Mangels and Joost avenues, Acadia,
Baden, Congo, Detroit, Jones and Fran
cisco streets.
The ordinance designed to prohibit the
operation of compressed air cleaning ma
chimes on public streets was referred to
the Health Committee. Cleveland Dam
spoke in support of the ordinance and
julius Kahn opposed it. COmte said the
ordinance was unconstitutional, as 1T dis
eliminated against certain machines, but
he withdrew his motion to postpone the
bill indefinitely after Loughery's motion
to refer to the committee.
