this gentleman and his management
understanding the strained relations
existing between themselves and an
element among the citizens represented
by and atfiliating with organized labor,
have caused this plan Of practically free
concerts to be brought before the
Apollo Club in order to use that club to
propitiate organized labor and remove
this opposition therefore
Resolved, That we emph4tically de-
cline to be hoodwinked in this manner
into accepting alleged favors at the
hands of Ferd. w. Peck and hereby
notify every organization of working
men in the city and all friends of organ
lied labor that the Auditorium was
built by unfair labor and that the Presi-
dent of the company directly benefited
by the success of that business venture,
Ferd. w. Peck, is an avowed enemy of
unionism in any and all it's forms.
Resotred, That our representatives,
Messrs. Lawler, Mason, Taylor and
Adams, and our Senators, Cullom and
Farwell, be furnished copies of these
resolutions, and are hereby urged to use
their influence to defeat the political
aspirations Of the said Ferd. w. Peck in
the event of his receiving the nomina-
ton for Collector of Customs at this
port.
Resolved, That committee of five be
appointed TO devise plan Of crusade
among organized workmen throughout
the United States against the present
management of the Auditorium.
An open letter was also prepared, ad-
dressed to President Harrison. 1t said
During the last Presidential campaign
it was said that you had expressed your
self to the effect that workingman
should be satisfied with 81 day, At
that time you considered it as not incon-
sistent with your dignity to refute the
imputation. You have now the oppor-
tunity to prove the sincerity of the de-
NAL. We, as workingmen, represent
atives Of organizations of Chicago, atfili-
ated with the American Federation of
Labor, do most respectfully ask your
consideration of our grievance. It has
come to our knowledge that Ferd. w.
Peck is a candidate for the position of
Collector of Customs at this port. Ferd.
w. Peck represents an element in this
community opposed to organized labor.
Any recognition Of this man will be
| accepted as an atfront to those enlisted
in the cause Of unionism.'

SCHOOL, CONFERENCE.
Progress of the Movement against
Ignorance.

At meeting of the School Conference
held Friday evening, Dec. 90, the Com
mittee on Address reported progress.
Its members are making as exhaustive
an investigation of educational matters
in this city as the time allowed them
will permit, and many of the data essen
tial to comprehensive presentation of
the subject are still to be obtained. The
committee, however, expect to be able
to make satisfactory report at the next
meeting of the Conference, which, upon
the motion of r. Grove, delegate of the
Tailors, will take place at the Labor
Lyceum on Friday, January 3, 1890.
The necessity of a regular and COM
plete attendance was Insisted upon by
nearly all the members present, and it
was resolved to publish in the labor pa
pers thu names of the organizations
whose delegates failed to attend the
meetings of the Conference, 80 that
these organizations may take the neces-
sary steps to secure proper representa-
ton.
The Importance of giving the move
ment the greatest possible impetus and
popularity was also discussed. While
Organized Labor has taken the initiative
of it, and should watch its development
so that it may not be diverted from its
true, honest purpose by designing per-
sons or cliques, the desirability of in
teresting all classes of people was recog-
nized. With this end in view, a motion
was therefore unanimously carried to
invite the Nineteenth Century Club, the
Liberal Club, the Nationalist Clubs and
the Anti-Poverty Society to send dele
gates. The Working Women's Society
will also be represented at the next
meeting.
Attention was called to the spreading
agitation of the school question in other
States, as shown, for instance, by the
great meetings just held in Pittsburg
IAN account of which is given below,
and by the comprehensive investigation
which Mr.. Lamb, Commissioner of La
Dor, has undertaken in Minnesota.
To provide for necessary.expenditures,
motion was unanimously adopted to
request every organization represented
in the Conference to pay in one dollar
through its delegate at the next meeting.

MUSIC IN THE AIR.
The Chicago Trade and Labor Assembly
Boycotts the Auditorium.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16.-Ever since the
contractors for the carpentering work
on the Auditorium refused to give their
carpenters the eight-hour day and then
employed non-union men the labor
organizations of Chicago have kept up
a more or less active warfare on +. w.
Peck and the Auditorium management.
When the cornerstone was laid they
abstained from taking part in the parade
and threatened the politicians who were
present at the exercises, with political
death. In the campaign. however, all
this was forgotten, and the war on the
Auditorium was lost sight Of.
The next chance comes with the in
vitation of the Apollo Club to labor
people to attend its concerts at the
Auditorium with a merely nominal ad-
mittance. At yesterdays meeting in
Bricklayers' Hall the following was
adopted
WHEREAS, An effort is being made by
a body of men styling themselves the
Apollo Musical Club with apparently
the most sincere motives of kindness to
wage-earners, to furnish musical con-

Credentials were presented by new
delegates Of the Faustus Labor Club and
the House Smiths Union, they took the

The Derrickmen reported that they
had now almost completely organized
their trade and the union had excellent
prospects. A similar encouraging report
was made by the Marble Cutters, who
stated that with the exception of few
slate firms, who employ scabs on new
buildings, all the yards and shops in
Brooklyn and New York were under the
control of the Union. The building
trades are requested to see to it that no
slate hangers are allowed to work on
buildings, unless they are provided with
union cards.
A communication was read from the
Long Island Walters Association saying
that the Brooklyn Walters Union re-
jected by the c. l.. U. last Sunday had
always been and was still recognized by
them as bona-hde labor organization,
and requesting the c. L. U. to admit the
said union in case it should make appli-
cation. The communication was placed
on file.
A circular signed Central Labor Fe-
deration of New York concerning the
boycott against the Budweiser Brewing
Co. was presented, but not being sealed
it could not be received.
The delegate representing the G. L. ".
at the Convention of the State Working
mas Assembly gave his report, which

The coal barons are again talking of
reducing the production, which is al
ready 100000 tons less for anthracite
than it was last year, although the de-
mand is larger than it ever was. Their
object is evidently to cut down wages
and advance prices. When this double
purpose is achieved, they will go on
producing indefinitely-fo while.

From Wall Street To-day.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9-There seemed to be
plenty of buying orders in the market at the
opening, and it presented more animated
appearance than for the past few days, but the
business done, while much better distributed
than usual of late, was of a retail character
entirely, and after first demand was satisfied,
the market drifted back into the usual dull
ness; The first prices showeda marked change
in the temper Of the speculation from that of
last evening, being generally from p to II per
cent higher than last nights final figures,
Atchison, Erie, New England and st. Paul
showing the largest advances. Further i'm
provement was made all around the room in
the early dealings, and before the advance was
checked Lackawanna and Missouri Pacific,
which led the upward movement in the active
stocks, had each risen q per cent. Cotton oil,
however, was the special feature, and ON COM
paratively light trading, rose II per cent.
There was a slight reaction late in the hour,
but at IL o'clock the market was again strong,
though quiet. at about the best prices reached.
The bulk of the business was in seven or eight
stocks, of which st. Paul and Reading were
most prominent, although in both prices moved
within a very narrow range.
