The Eight-HOur MOvement-Second
Penitentiary Considered.

The meeting of the Trades and Labor
assembly last evening was well attended, at
which several important matters were COLI
sidered and considerable business of a
routine nature was disposed of.
The committee appointed to investigate
the question of the second penitentiary re-
ported in favor of the Flmira system. pro-
vided that no single branch of work is
made speciality, and only enough work is
done to make the penitentiary self-sustain-
ing institution. The committee, did not,
however, approve of the location
of the prison near stone
quarry nor any other place where
there is possibility of its being used to
compete with any class of labor: further
that if the prison is absolutely necessary
that it should not be one which can be used
to further the ends of rings and cliques;
composed of men who seek to rob the pub
lie by putting convict labor on the market
in competition with honest industry. The

Malloy and OleSon. at the beginning of
the discussion the question whether a
union meet between Minneapolis and st.
Paul should be held the first three days in
July, for $4,000 in purses came up. There
was no union of sentiment, and great
variety of opinion was expressed. About
half favored the union meet and half op-
posed it. The meeting adjourned without

members will meet at the Nicollet house on
Monday and decide whether to unite with
st. Paul or go it alone. and will report their
