NINE HOURS,
The Sentiment of the Working.

The Sentiment of the Working
men at a Meeting Last Night.
Nine hours for days work was the
unanimous sentiment at the stone
maSonS' meeting last evening at their
hall in Bridge square. The object of
the meeting was to discuss the hours of
labor for the building season of 1888.
Representatives from the carpenters
union, the bricklayerS' union, and other
building associations were present and
urged harmoniZed action toward Secur-
ing their object. Last season the con-
tractors and builders board of trade
agreed that nine hours should be day
work, yet many Of them are employing
men ten hours day. The cause of this
those WOrkmen who are willing to labor
for the longer period of time.
j. c. Boyne occupied the chair last
night. and Thomas Birmingham, [. L.
Mcdaniel, J. c. Boyne. NJ. r. Blakely
and others were the speakers. All
agreed that the wOrBmen must adhere
to their main purpose and work only
nine hours day, "There will be no
strike this season." said Mr.. Blakely,
for the contractors agreed to give us
what we wanted, and they surely won't
go back on their word" Strikes were
not wanted in the crowd that met last
night, but only good. common sense
and fair wages, and certainly they had
the former last night. No decided ac-
ton was taken, but an informal vote
showed the meeting to be unanimously
in favor of nine hours.
1t was decided to have mass meet
ing OF all the building trades at the hall
of the StonemasOns' union, West
Third street, next Saturday evening.
All connected with the building trades
are invited to attend. There will be
full discussion of the nine hours Ques-
ton.

BOLD FISHERMEN
Who Brought in a Big String of
Fish From Forest Lake.

A party of st. Paul experts with the
rod and reel went to Forest Lake
Friday night for a fishing excursion.
They came back yesterday with one of
the largest strings of bass and pickerel
that has been seen in this city for some
time. There were $50 fish, which
tipped the beam at trifie over 200
pounds. The party was made UP of
Capt. Ed. S. Bean, Rol King. II. W.
Davis, Lon Bensinger, Brad Campbell.
DR.. Fry and Judge Cory. The
party was a very quiet one,
and attended strictly to it's fishing. Ed
Bean took along copy of Upton's tao
tics, and at odd moments read chapters
to the boys. Judge Cory had COPIES OF
the penal code and the city charter in
his vest pocket. and imposed fines of
five and costs on all members who
showed signs of diSorderly, or who
caught more fish than he did. BAN
Davis didn't take along anything but
his corporosity. To get the best results
the party had 10 put him in a secluded
spot on the shore, out Of sight and hear
ing of the lake. Lou BenSinger tried to
catch wall-eyed pike in his hands. Mr..
Campbell baited the hook for DIR. Fry.
The story that he took along red billiard
balls for bait is denied by those who
were there. Taken altogether it was
one of the most successful excursions of
the season. There is some talk of hiring
the crowd to give exhibitions of catch
ing fish at White Bear lake during the
ChautauQua season at Mahtomedi.

NO POLITICS IN 1T.
One of the Railroad Commission
ers Denies the Story From Battle
Lake

Gen. Becker, of the railroad and
warehouse commissioners was asked
yesterday in regard to the article which
appeared in yesterdays GLOBE from
the Battle Lake Review. The general
denied the charges in toto and said the
affair was really too unimportant to
warrant notice. He stated that the
commission would meet in Battle Lake
in the early part of June, and" said
he, ''if Mr.. Hatch or anybody else wants
to cross-examine us about that matter,
we Will talk with them. Whoever SAYS
this Office is used for political purposes
is guilty of deliberate falsehood."
Inspector James, like Gen. Becker,
wasn't saying a word" but finally con-
cluded to go on record as saying that
the only man in the grain Inspection
department who had the slightest con-
nection with politics was a prominent
alliance leader and a pronounced Schef-
fer man.
