ROUTES FOR GEARY
Line INSPECTED
Commissioners of Public Works
and Supervisors Travel Over
Proposed Ways

Commissioners Casey, Laumeister and
Newsom of the board of works and Su-
pervisors Pugh, Walsh, Herget and
Loughery, with Acting Clerk F. A. Ken
ney, went over the proposed routes for
the Geary street municipal line yester-
MED the party. explaining various draw
backs TO certain streets.
Three possible routes We're discussed.
The first was to parallel the United
Railroads with double tracks along
Point Lobos avenue from Thirty third
avenue to Fortieth. The width of the
street at this point, 40 feet, the Off
cials considered ample for two addi-
tional tracks. From Fortieth avenue,
the line would be diverted into Cliff
avenue and thence out to the ocean
The second plan, which received most
favorable attention, was to run sin
gle track from Point Lobos avenue and
Fortieth over Cliff avenue, down past
the Cliff house and along the Great
highway, turning back through c street.
This would enable tourists to reach the
beach directly over a new scenic line.
Should the use of Point Lobos avenue,
between Thirty-third and Fortieth, be
prevented by permanent injunction,
city Engineer Manson proposes q double
track line from Point LoboS avenue
over Thirty third to Balboa street, the
tracks diverting there and forming a
loop out Balboa and around by street.
A park feeder on Tenth avenue was
suggested for the Geary street road

BUTCHER TRUST
SUED BY LESSERS
Lincoln Meat Market Proprie-
tors Allege ''Silent Boycott"
Against Them

The complaint in the 100000 damage
suit of the Lesser Brothers company.
proprietors of the Lincoln meat market
at S77 Market street, against the Retail
Butchers association and about 30
wholesale and retail meat dealers, was
nled yesterday with the county clerk
1t alleges that the retail butchers of
San Francisco have formed a combine
for the purpose of monopolizing the
purchase and sale of meat and meat
products; OF fixing and enhancing prices
charged to the public without regard
to cost or to supply and demand. and
of preventing any competition between
themselves. Another object of the Re-
tail Butchers association, it is alleged,
is to prevent such as do not join it
and conform to its rules from engag-
ing in the retail meat business.
Lesser Brothers charge that early in
November Thomas McKeon, president
of the association, called on them and
threatened that their meat supply
would be cut off unless they discon-
tinued advertising their prices in the
newspapers and elsewhere The reply
was made that it was the business pol
icy of the plaintiffs to undersell COM
petitors, and, therefore, as a necessary
incident, 1t was called on to advertise
prices.
GTeSlu0HI Mcheon, II is alleged, re-
ported this to the executive committee
Of the association, and thereafter rep
resentatives of the wholesale houses
were summoned to a meeting at which
boycott of the plaintiff was agreed
on. The retailers are alleged to have
told the wholesale dealers they would
not buy from them unless they agreed
not to sell meat to Lesser Brothers.
What is called "a silent boycott" was
instituted, the wholesale dealers re-
fusing to sell to the plaintiff on the
pretext that they had sold out all their
supplies and quoting prohibitive prices.
Only two wholesale houses will sell
meat to Lesser Brothers, and 1t is al
legged the defendants threaten to coerce
these two into disseminating their sup
ply Lesser Brothers claim they have
lost 500 q day since the boycott
started, and that they have in all been
damaged to the extent of 500, 600 Be
sides asking for damages in that sum
