NO PLACE FOR SHOEMAKERs.
A Lynn Mans Experience In Caracas,
Venezuela.

Jacob +. Goss, a Lynn Mass, shoe
worker, employed us a Mckay stitCher, re-
turned from Caracas, Venezuela, where he
has been located since last December, He
relates thi, story:
Last December, In response to an alluring
advertisement in a local paper for skilled
operatives to 70 Ia South America to teach
native workmen the art OF producing foot
wear by machinery, Goss entered into COM
munication with the agent of the firm OF
Paul & Co., OF Caracas. Spanish concern,
the result OF which was that he signed con-
tract to work for the firm year at s25 per
week.
With several other workmeu from Lynn
aud other New England shoe centres, and
five girls to be employed rs stitchers, he en-
barked for South AmeTica. Arriving, they
found that. though the house of Paul d Co.
was reliable concern, the proposed shoe
factory had not been completed, and this
uccessitated n delay OF several weeks. during
which the workmen aided in the finishing
of the building. They had all signed con-
tracts. but at the expiration OF the first week
they discovered that what they received as
compensation for their labor was materially
less than that stipulated IN the contract, and
they Immediately demonstrated, but could
secure no satisfaction from the firm.
As a last resort they visited the American
consul, and, producing the contracts which
thry had signed, a>ktu II tncy could not Oe
enforced. The consurs reply was that the
contract was worthless Most of the work
men were without money The climate did
not agree with them, and they endured, and,
with1he exception OF GOss, ure still endur-
ing great suffering The natives treat them
with contempt, and their lotis a most un-
happy one. They are forced to remain
there because they have not the funds with
which to return. When the operatives en-
tered into the agreement they were in
formed that board and lodging were much
cheaper than in this country. Mr.. Goss
states that this is absolutely untrue, the
workmen being forced to pay ms high as sl0
per week for board
When Mr.. Goss left the shoe factory had
not commenced operations, and he is doubt
tul If nair OF shoes is ever made by the
firm which conceived that the plan would

the American workmcn will be left in a
deplorahle plight.
