Each vessel will clear for action as soon

Probably not a shot will be fired until

ELECTRIC TRACTION.
1t is Considered More Economical Than
Horses

1t is Considered More Economical Than
Horses.
The operation of street railways by cleo
tricity, although even now completely
demonstrated to be more economical than
by either horses or cables, is yet too recent
to afford the more reliable figures which
can only be attained after extended use;
but from an investigation recently made
on number OF roads by o. L. Crosby,
some very interesting data are developed.
the results of Mr.. Crosby's investigation
show that the average cost of motive
power for the roads in Washington, Rich
mond, Cleveland ana Scranton.
was about 500 cents per car mile.
anu the relations of the
various items which go to make up this
total cost are very interesting. Thus, 1t
is shown that the interest on the invest
ment constitutes about one-fourth or
one-fifth OF the whole; that is to say,
about one cent per car mile; coal, as
rule, about twelve per cent; attendance,
about forty per rent; and the machinery
and line, without interest, the remaining
twenty per cent But with all these
manifest advantages Of the electric rail-
way, the best proof of it's superiority ia to
be found in the experience Of those who
are using it; and ii the unsolicited praise
from that quarter is TO be relied upon,
then certainly the electric railway is an
unqualified success.
At the eighth annual meeting of the
American Street Railway Association.
held last September at Minneapolis, the
committee which had been appointed for
the purpose Of investigating and report
ing upon electric railways, submitted
report which should finally set at rest the
doubts OF those who still believe the cleo
trio railway to be in the experimental
stage This committee reported In fact
that. IF 1t is desired to make change
from horse power, electricity will fill the
bill to perfection, no matter how long or
short the road, or how many passengers
are carried, In the investigation of the
subject the most satisfactory results nave
been shown; it not only increases the
traffic over the road, but reduces expense
and actually nables us to ope rate a line
which heretofore entaiied a loss, at
profit. "-Scribnef's Mdgaz inc.

will be borne to his last resting place.
D. S. Jemison-Ball was only twenty-eight
years old when he passed away on Friday
morning, but his comrades say that his
active life and the ravages of disease
made MIN look older. This young
printer was born in the South and was
intensely Southern in his convictions. 1t
was characteristic of him to be In
dead earnest. He was an active member
of the Concord Labor Club of New York
when it was hourishing about four years
ago and was so well thought of that he
was elected delegate to d. A. 65 from
that organization. The deceased printer
was quiet and transformations in his

LABOR DAY PICNICS.
Three Are Now Contemplated, But
All May Yet Unite in Parade.

Preliminary preparations for the fitting
celebration of Labor Day in Hudson
county are already going forward.
Judging from the action taken at the
outset it looks as If the various organiza
tions will not act so tremendously this
year as they did last.
The Building Trades Council has APP
pointed committee to secure suitable
park for picnic. It is proposed to have
a parade OF the building trades and
unions of other trades, which are in
sympathy. will be invited to participate.
A short match through Ihe principal
streets of Jersey City is contemplated, as
1t is believed that the long walk over the
dusty roads last year would deter many
from falling into line on Labor's holiday
this year.
Ii is pretty safe to say that there will be
q celebration by another contingent of
labor's forces on the first Monday in Sep
TENDER. For the past three years the Jer-
sey Association has held a picnic on that
date and the success attained is sufficient
to warrant the belief that the association
will hold another festival ON Labor Day
this year.
That is not all. The German trades
unions are getting ready for a proper
recognition of the holiday, and have al
ready,it is rumUred, negotiated for park
for a picnic.
In talking about the matter labor man
who loves unity remarked, - What a
splendid spectacle these three divisions of
labor would present If they could be
brought together in one monster paradei
tell You, it would be a revelation to
those on the outside of labor organizations
But there is lots of time before Septem per
and who knows but what something in
this direction won't be attempted

At the reception which Mayor Cleveland
gave to Mr.. Powderly and brother
Knights after the meeting on Thursday
evening. choice collation. was served.
The only drawback to some of the guests
was the ''softness" of the drinkables,
but then It was thought that His Honor
arranged it thus out of respect to Mr..
Powderly's stern temperance habits. A
curious brother, however, ventured to en-
qnire:-
MAY ask if you are Prohibitionist,
Mr.. Clevelaud?"
"Oh, no, replied the Mayor, s'but I
never have liquor in the house."
z In accepting glass of lemonade Mr..
Powderly observed:-s'When / have fin
ished a public speech find that drink
of cold water restores my throat wonder
fully
A good deal of comment has. been
caused by the appearance of James E.
Quinn on the platform at the Powderly
gathering II is said that the magnificent
audience present tempted him to ask for
the privilege of making a speech But

the difference now in Jersey as well as

Labor Notes.

General Secretary P. c. Mcclure, of
the United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joincrs. reports that eight hours has
been conceded in upwards of seventy
cities.
A performance will be given for the
benefit OF the Building Trades Journal
at the Windsor Theatre, New York, on
May 25.
Walking Delegate Alfred Ashley, of
the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters
and Joiners expects that only 300 men will
have TO resort to striking in New York
tomorrow in order to secure eight hours.
Twenty-seven of the principal employing
carpenters have already declared them
selves ready to cencede the demands of
the men. The United Brotherhood and
Amalgamated Carpenters are now
strengthened by the entire coming over
to their side of the United Order, an or
ganization of the trade which the bosses
were looking to use against the short
time movers. But the ancient grndge
which the United Order has against the
brotherhood is dropped for the nonce, as
would scorn the idea of being used as
bats or '.scabs'' to defeat the purposes
of their brethren of the rival organiza-
ton.
This afternoon the housesmiths will
meet in Webster Hall. New York, to de-
eide whether they will strike against
certain propositions of their employers.
Besides 5000 housesmiths other trades in
which iron work is used Will be drawn
into the conflict. General Master Work
man Powderly is expected to be present
at the meeting, which, it Is understood.
will be confined to the trade affected.
A mass meeting of painters is called
for ten o'clock this morning at Zibetti's
Hall. Central avenue and Bleeckcr street.

another promising branch of the united

has been started. There. are u number
