ALBANY, n. Y, May GA decision of
Importance of every labor union in the
country was handed down in the supreme
court here Tuesday in Luke Cox VS.. the
Albany Brewing company. The appeal
was by defendant from a Judgment of the
county court for plaintiff. In April, 1855,
during strike of the defendants regular
employees the plaintiff and others were en-
gagged TO take the place of the strikers the
plaintiff being under verbal agreement to
work for one year. When the strike was
settled a few weeks later plaintiff was dis
charged, and then brought suit TO recover
wages for the balance of the year he was
unemployed. The Judgment in his favor
is now affirmed, with costs. 1t is said that
the labor unions will pay the expenses of
the trial and also the mans salary.

sertion of the sincere faith of the South in
the Justice of its cause, at the same time
according the same honesty of purpose to

Col Hooker and said he wished his re-
marks could be heard in every city in the
north. He then addressed the audience as
follows: Comrades who wore the blue

here to make speech, but to visit old
scenes once more, to gaze upon the ground
so familiar to us all during those eventful
days of 1868 and which has been so conse-
Grated by the blood so many brave men.

that SO much ia heard in praise of Elec-
