Taken to the Asvlum.

BALTIC Garnesse, the Hungarian of the
First ward who attempted to commit sui
eide on Sunday by cutting his throat with
a razor, yesterday developed symptoms of
violent insanity. List night his friends sp-
piled to Squire Monaghan to have him
cared for and this morning the man was
taken to the ~Schuylkill county insane
asylum, which is connected with the aims
house. While the man was being taken to
the 9:08 Lehigh Valley train he fought so
desperately that it required the united eff
forts of Constable Toomey and four citi-
zens to carry him to the depot and put him
on the car, although he was handcuffed.

factory than to take other measures of
economy, and it has often been that
the weight of retrenchment has fallen
on those least able to bear it. There
is much to say for both sides, and any
move thatmay bring the twointo closer
relations is to welcomed. In every
trade, the man who by hook or crook
secures cheaper labor is recognized as a
factor in cutting prices. 1t is not easy
to see exactly how the weavers propose
to go to work, other than on the old
plan, to reach the class at which their
resolution was aimed, but the will
counts for much, and the recognition
of the friendly spirit thar many manu-
facturers hold, counts for a great deal,
coming as it does as the frat expression
of the kind from a labor uniou.

The proposition of the Fall River
weaver to use their efforts to assist
friendly manufacturers against those
whose aim in business is to pay the
smallest possible wages, is unusual, but
it is encouraging. The weavers have
come to learn that because a man is an
employer, he is not necessarily an
enemy. TIE labor unions have done
much injustice in the past by refusing
to believe that an employer may be
kindly disposed toward his men, but
is compelled by circumstances to insist
on measures that seem hard and unjust
to the employees. On the other hand,
there has been with the employer a
iesirit that resents a question of the
and justice of his decision to cut
wages, or to refuse an increase. 1t has
been easier to reduce wages in the
