That's the control grid, G1. The negative voltage you're seeing there is good.
What are you getting on G2, the screen grid? That's pin 4.
It should be some positive value, and vary with the setting of the width control.

Um.. the term "screen grid" doesn't refer to the CRT or CRT screen. It refers to the second grid in a tetrode or pentode tube.
