Neither the Pacific Electric nor the
Southern Pacific will attempt to do
any work on the Huntington conces-
sion, according to a report received
yesterday by J. w. Shenk, city attor-
ney. from both these corporations.
When this definite promise was re-
ceived the city's forces that have been
stationed at the edges of the Hunting
ton concession waiting to start some
thing If any effort were made to con-
tinue the railroad on to the concession,
were taken off and put at other work.
The Pacific Electric has been double
tracking it's line at San Pedro, but the
work has all been done on its own
property. Saturday a crossover was
built about Fifteenth street to the
Southern Pacific right OF way, but that
is as close to the Huntington conces-
sion as the work will go.
The Huntington concession, one or
the most desirable pieces of the harbor
frontage, has been declared forfeited
to the city by the council because the
terms of the franchise secured by III.
r. Huntington five years ago from the
San Pedro city council have not been
complied with. 1t Is on this land that
the city proposes to build it's municipal
warehouses.
road building was noted at San Pedro
and the railroad began to closely ap-
proach the Huntington concession, it
was feared that Huntington was max
ing a belated effort to comply with the
terms of his franchise and do the
necessary work. But as the time has
expired and the franchise is forfeited
the city was determined to prevent any
such tardy action with force If neces-
scary. But the railroad officials yes
terday assured Mr.. Shenk that 1t would
not be necessary, for no attempt would
be made to do any work on the con-
cession.
Mr.. Huntington so far has made no
effort to contest the city's declaration
Of forfeiture, although the land in
question is very valuable. The city
will take no action in court, but will
proceed to improve the land with
wharves and warehouses, and If the
courts intervene Huntington will
have to bring the action.

But they made gain of 4, $50 in mem
bership. There were So strikes, Of which

ly increased it's membership. The num-
ber of charters issued during the year
ending the first of the present month
was POL, and 271 charters were surrend-
cred. But the membership increased
20,962. This apparent discrepancy is
explained by the fact that in number
of cities two or more locals combined
under one charter. There were 60 strikes
during the year, 80 being won, 20 COM
promised, pending and lost. Taken
althogether the year showed an increas-
ed wage throughout the country, the

tion death benefits to members wives
