Matters of Interest Transacted at

At the meeting of the plumbers last
night, j. II. Doyle. who went as dele
gate to the convention of jOurneyman
plumbers recently held in Denver, re-
ported that the convention had been
nicely treated by the citizens in the way
of several entertainments. There were
seventy-iive delegates present, repre-
senting siXty-nine local unions. New
laws were adopted governing the taking
of apprentices, the effect of which
is that only one apprentice is
allowed to a shop having four or
a less number of jOurneymen. Helpers
are to be done away with. These regu-
latlons are to be submitted to the eX-
ecutive board of master plumbers as
ISOLATION for approval. Rules were also
adopted for the guidance of conference
boards. These conference boards are
composed equally of master and jour
neymen plumbers, and it is their duty to
adjust differences between employer
and wOrkmen. The convention recon-
mended the establishment of a con-
ference board in each city having a
local union. The next convention will
be held in July of next year at Mime
apolis. The local union will turn out
eighty strong in Labor day parade, and
will have a new banner for the occasion,
the men will wear black hats and carry
canes.
At last nights meeting of the paint
ers a report was submitted showing
that the association had paid out S576
the past year to men out of labor. The
union acknowledged the receipt of $50
from the Typographical union; SO from
Plasterers' Union No. 10, and SO from
the walters union, all of which will be
applied 10 the aid of the locked-Ou
painters. 1t was stated that the CO.
operative paint shop has twenty men
employed. and that forty other paint
ers are at work on jobs contracted by
them outside of the Intervention OF
bosses.
The machine woodworkers received
three applications for membership last
night In case the shops close on Labor
day the union will participate in the
parade.

Statistic of the Number of Stamped

Statistic of the Number Of Stamped
Envelopes Used in ST. Paul.
Some idea of the number of stamped
envelopes, with business card stamped
in the corner by the government, sold
at the postoffice in st. Paul may be
gained when it is known that single
firm in this city returns quarterly from
1900 to 1900 damaged envelopes, or
5000 to 5000 a year. Postmaster Lee
has about 200 customers or firms that
order their envelopes from the govern
meht. They are usually No. or note
{ paper size. The envelopes have the
card printed on the left-hand upper cor
ner by the government Office at Hart
ford, Conn.,, where the envelopes that
have been made with tWO-cent stamp
are cut. gummed and folded at the same
time. The envelopes of good quality,
with the firm name printed thereon,
cost $3.50 per 1000 in addition to the
postage. In case the envelope is mis-
directed OF damaged by clerk so that
the firm does not want to send it out,
it is stored away. Every three months
these envelopes are redeemed at the
postoffice for the price of the postage in
lots of from to 1900. And every three
months the postmaster sends out cir
cular to business men to return their
damaged envelopes on hand to be re-
deemed They are then forwarded to
the department at Washington and the
postOffice credited with the amount of
postage represented by the stamps. AS
Stated. one firm in this city returns
from 1900 to 800 misdirected or dam
aged envelopes every three months,

Catholic Central society continued its
meeting to-day with an address by Col.
F. c. Lederberger. of st. Louis, on the
Windthorst colony founded by the

CATTLEMEN SCARED.
Canada's Relaxation of Rules Is
the Cause.

MONTREAL. P. O.. Aug 1S.-A special
cablegram to the Star from London
says: The alleged intention of the
Dominion government to relax the re-
strictions upon United States cattle i'm
ports is causing much anxiety in Can
adam shipping and other circles here.
A high authority says that he cannot
believe that the Canadian ministers
would be so foolish as to fall into trap
set by those who would be only too
glad to see Canada lose the advan-
tages in the British markets which
last year yielded S1,250,000 clear
to the Canadian traders. Prudent
friends of Canada recognize a grave risk
in relaxing the rules against United
States cattle and the giving of the
smallest ground for a renewal of the
agitation against live imports. The
fear is expressed here of the Canadian
government making this a means of
securing political influence at Three
Rivers and Quebec. regardless of the
danger to general live cattle trade.
