SLATE
CAUCUS OF UNION DELEGATES
SIMPLY VOTED TO RECEIVE
REPORT AND REFER 1T TO
VARIOUS UNIONS FOR EN-
DORSEMENT OR REJECTION.

After first voting to accept the
list of candidates brought in By
its committee of three the labor
caucus last might on motion OF
Delegate G. A. Malstrom reconsid-
erred its action and then voted
merely to receive the, report and
submit 1t to the various unions
for approval or rejection.
This action followed the most
turbulent session of union men
ever held in Tacoma. At first a
motion was made that the caucus
should endorse only the labor
candidate. 1t was shown, how
ever, that they had already en-
dorsed him and after a long and
at times heated discussion the
motion to simply receive the COM
mittee's report and refer it to the
various unions was passed.
Doud, who was proposed for
one of the four commissioners
by the COMMITTEES of Twelve, and
against whom union men had a
grievance, yesterday Withdrew
from the slate, so that only Balk-
will, Parker and Boney were left
ION the original ticket. Roys,
Hickey and weisbach were substi-
tuted to fill up the holes left by
the three Withdrawals.

TWO BIDS ON
BIG PAVING
JOB

Only two bidders showed up on
the big paving job for the extern
sion of Sixth avenue to the Mar
rows today. The low bidder was
w. ]. Murphy, whose figure was
$159,893. The Barber Asphalt
company bid s164,50O.
Murphy will be awarded the
contract when Commissioner Nc
Gregor comes home, he having
gone to Aberdeen to the Good
Roads convention.
A. r. Titlow, who is one OF the
large property owners who will
have to foot the bill for paving,
said this morning that he thought
the street cars will be extended as
soon as the paving is done.
81 think there will be street
cars out there when the paving is
finished, and II the present COM
pany win not extend some one else
will"
A petition is now being prepared
to be filed this week with the
council asking the council to va
cate the franchise of the Pacific
Traction company. which has a
franchise on Sixth avenue to the
Narrows, unless it proceeds at
once to build the line to the water.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. "a.
A mass meeting of representa-
tives from Philadelphia unions
was called this afternoon for the
discussion of proposition to call
a general strike of all union men
in the city of brotherly love.
Every effort is being made by
those leaders favoring a general
strike to have present a strong
body of men in favor of calling
the strike. A majority of the
leaders are opposed to radical
action and stated emphatically
that a general strike would not
be called.

AS a further precaution. Mayor
Reyburn, after a consultation with
Captain Groom, ordered the sale
of firearms to be stopped through

The mayor today made his first
ARREST In connection with the
strike. He was proceeding in his
automobile accompanied by his
body guard and chauffeur, when
he espied a man placing an OBJ

The mayor and his guard alight-

In addition to this the grand

There are three big milk COM

FREELAND IS
OFF SLATE
NOW

The Committee of Twelve has
officially wiped Ray Freeland off
its slate.
In an open letter to the city
treasurer today. Chairman George
Burke announces that the request
of Freeland that he be not consid-
cred candidate of the committee
or of any other combine or fac
tion, had been complied with and
that the Committee of Twelve had
eliminated him from it's ticket by
resembling its endorsement.
Mr.. Burke says that Freeland
himself solicited the endorsement
of the committee and therefore the
committee is puzzled at his action
in withdrawing. Freeland, how
ever. denies that he asked to be
put on the slate.
