But while baby carriage under ordinary
circumstances is an engine Of destruction,
it is only in big crowds that it lets itself out
and shows what it can do. At circus
parade, display Of fire works, or an open
air concert, it is to be seen to the best adj
vantage No matter how great the assem-
blage, the perambulatOr makes for the most
advantageous position, and it invariably
gets there. He who will not make room
must make sacrifice of his pet corns, that's
all.

ADHERING TO EIGHT HOURS.
Meeting OF Various workingmen.s
Organizations.

The committee on amalgamation represent
ing the various unions was in session to-day
considering the situation.
The stone-cutters are considering the adyisa-
bility Of withdrawing from the amalgamation,
and will probably take action tonight. Stone
cutters say they would prefer to deal directly
ter builders. They will, they say, continue
firm In their demands for eight hours
The galvanized iron and cornice worker
union last night passed resolutions rejecting
the bosses proposition, and expressing their
determination to adhere to their eight-hour
resolutions.
NO FURTHER CONFERENCES,
The committee on amslgamation, represent
ing the different trades to-day heard reports
from the various trades organizations, all 70 the
effect that the organizations are determined to
resist the recent proposition made by the bosses,
and TO adhere firmly TO their original action
demanding eight hours. The members OF the
committee have informally decided to hold no
further conferences with the master mechanics,
as such conferences, they claim, are useless. In
case the bosses wish TO confer as TO wages, on an
eight-hOur basis, q member Of the committee
said to-day, the unions may consider such q
proposition.
Members OF the committee say that to recede
from the stand taken on the eight hours now
would be suicidal, as many of the men have
gone to work and are now working eight hours.
1t would, they say, be unjust to the bosses who
have granted eight hours. One member Of the
committee expressed the opinion that the
bosses were not acting in good faith when they
proposed to establish a rule Of stopping work
everywhere in case OF strike In any trade or
In any shop. Such q rule could not be put in
iorce, the committeeman said, until all the
troubles now existing and all boycotts now in
force We're settled
