The Knights Against Contract Women
LsbOrers from ScotIAnd.
NEW YORK, April 2.-Messrs. Barbour,
of Paterson, have been making arrange
ments for bringing out workers from
Scotland at wholesale, but the Knights of
Labor have no intention Of permitting this
and propose trying to prevent il by an ap-
peal to the law torbldding tho importation
OF contract labor. In order that the i'm
migrants might not attract much atten-
ton, 1t was decided to bring Them to this
country in small patches.
Acting on this, ten women were dis
patched on the State Of Nevada, adver-
tlsed TO sail from Glasgow on March H..
Sufficient eyiderce has been produced to
prove that the women were engaged for 50
per week; that passage across was pro-
vided them, with the stipulation that they
should pay $50 for this in weekly INSTALL
ments of 81, aud that there are still many
women under contract in Scotland to come
out and work for the same hrm. Enough
money has been appropriated to pay the
legal expenses, and it is probable that
GOV. Albeit will be asked to conduct the
case against Barbour.
