NEW YORK, Aug. :. - Special. r
There is no doubt that the breach be-

ployees is widening. It may result in an
open rupture. This will be brought about,
should it occur, by demand upon the com
pany that promotion shall be made on the
principle Of seniority in the service
of the company, and that preference
in runs shall be treated in the

seem TO be inclined to yield to any

WENT TOO FAR.

Few people. know when they are well
off, and it is evident that organized
labor" in the Australian colonies has made
the mistake that SO many make. 1t had
not only placed an eight-hour law on the
statute book, but had enforced it in all
trades, and had even managed in some
branches of skilled labor to cut down the
working hours to forty-five per week. 1t
had caused all railroads to be owned and
operated by the government and to be
administered with a view, not to the pay
ment Of dividends, but to providing the
utmost possible accommodation to the
masses of the people at the cheapest rates.
In New South Wales the railroads have to
carry school children sretuitouslyv In
Victoria the tramways running in the cit
les and towns become the property of the
municipalities after certain term of
years. Notwithstanding, moreover, the
great curtailment of the hours of labor,
the wages have been in almost all trades
twice as great as they are in England.
This was a pretty comfortable condition
of things for organized labor, but it was
not satisfied and began to dictate to en-
ployers, to fight non-union workmen and
to boycott those who offended it. But ii
went too far and the organized resistance
made to its demands has brought about
the failure of the great strike which has
for weeks been disturbing the colonies
Not content with organizing in several
colonies resistance to the demands of the
trade unions, the employers took measures
to bring about intercolonial action, and on
September 8 conference of capitalists
representing the industries of all the
colonies, was held in Sydney. The result
of the revolt of capital and counter or
ganization of employers has been that moi
single point has been conceded to the
trades unions. And they have discovered
as all unions, both of laborers and EN-
ployers must, that there are certain things
which cannot be done.
