FEDERATION OF LABOR.
Several Reports Submitted Which Pro.
voked Much Discussion.

At yesterdays session of the federation of
labor in Boston the committee on report Of the
president reported IN commentator of the
proposition to appoint committee of seven to
which all matters relating 10 the eight-hour
movement be referred; and also favorably
upon the holding of an international congress
in the city in which the worlds fair is held in
1892. The committee also recommends that
the federation seek the rigid enforcement Of
the contract labor laws and the Chinese exclu-
sion act and the agitation of ballot reform I'M
til all states have adopted the Australian sys-
tenn. In the matter of strike assessments il is
recommended that the committee on constitu-
ton formulate plan for the management of
the fund. The committees report was dis
cussed and Its recommendations referred with
the exception of that in relation TO alien con-
tract labor, which was referred back 10 the
committee.
PRESIDENT aoNPERs' REPORT.
President Gompers' report to the American
federation of labor in Boston Wednesday was Q
significant document He said the federation
had 8, 500 unions with more members than any
labor society in the world. In regard TO the
eight-hour movement Mr.. Gompers said: with
regard to the proposed enforcement Of the
eight-hour system May next one or two
trades whose organizations are affiliated with
the federation should be selected by the con-
vention or by the executive council upon which
to concentrate the whole efforts of organized
labor to secure that system. The old organiza-
tions affiliated should contribute a speci-
fed sum per member to aid in win
ming the first victory. The attempt should be
made to win this without resorting to any strike.
Upon the successful termination of the first
contest another trade should be selected to fight
for the system, and so on until victory shall
have been gained on all sides"
The law to prevent the importation Of Ia
borers under contract is not properly enforced,
and frequently the officers who should enforce
it by their action endeavor to bring il into
ridicule.
The Chinese exclusion act is fagrantly vio-
lated.
1T is to be hoped that an international labor
congress will be held in 1892, at the same time
as the worlds fair. Ballot reform il favored
by the federation and its members generally
insist upon the right to cast an absolutely secres

FIRE AT BARKER.

From gentleman present we learn
that the fire broke out in Upper Barker
near the rear Of Jerry Wetzels house,
spreading to the Main Edna, where it
consumed the boarding house and con-
tents, the blacksmith shop and contents.
mouth Of tunnel and tilnbers in the shaft
and all the tools, clothing and everything
belonging to the miners-the miners
themselves barely escnping with their
lives. "#..
From the Main Edna the fire jumped
through the surrouding timber and reach
ed the Nebel ranch, where rs tons Of hay
were consumed, also all the farming ma
chinery, all his outhuildings, 100 chick
! ems, new sets Of harness and everything
but his house. A man named Phillips
seeing the house burning exertcd himself
and saved the building, which had been
deserted by Mr.. Neble and his family but
short time previously; Mr.. Phillips
having his faos and eyes burned in en-
deavoring to stop the progress of the
flames.
The fire spread through the mountains
in all directions. The people of Barke,
and Kibby turned out en- mass to fight
the devouring flames and did not cease
their efforts until midnight, when it com
menced raining, which turning into a
heavy snow storm about 4 O'Clock a. M,
gradually extinguished the fires.
| No lives were lost and no men are miss
ing. Everybody did their utmost to save
the property impenled.
The owners of the May and Edna were
the principal losers, their losses footing
up to nearly $4,000 Mr., Nebel's loss
will be about 5000,
| A most providental occurrence was tht
rain and snow storm, which lasted til
about 10 o'clock in the morning. But fo
the rain and snow the whole country
around Barker and Kibby would have
been destroyed.
