OBJECT TO THE LIBRARY.

Mass Meeting Held the Southside-
Workingmsn Protest Against Receiving
the Gift-Counciis Asked to Revoke Its
Action in tho Matter.
The meeting in New Turner Hall, South
Thirteenth street, last night under the aus
pices of the American Flint Glass Work
ers' Union to take action regarding the Car
negie Library gift, was large.
G. V. Arbogast called the meeting to or
der and George M. Murphy, a member of
the Executive Board of the A. F. G. W.
q. was chosen Permanent Chairman. He
said the purpose of the meeting was to re-
quest that the Carnegie library be returned
to the donor. He further said the matter
was of Importance to the city. Pittsburg
was not pauper and the Carnegie Library
would be of no use to the workingmen of
the city, especially where it is in-
tended to be located, Schenley Park,
and they want the money returned to the
donor, as otherwise it would be con-
slant source of taxation and the people
have never had chance of voting on
whether they wanted such taxation.
VIM. j. Dillon, Secretary Of the Flint
Glass Workers Union, said they were
gathered to protest against the action OF
the servants OF the people in acting without
consulting their masters. He protested
against the intended location of the library
in Schenley Park and said he did
not believe in the power OF the Of
fcials to accept such donation
without first asking the citizens if they
were willing to undergo burden of S40,-
600 per year necessary to support it, and
maybe to furnish situations for certain per-
sons at the expense of the citizens.
Alderman F, C. Beinhaur of the TWENTY
ninth ward. reviewed the library question
and said it was question if they could
nullify the acceptance of the gift, but they
could enter protest and prevent the ap-
preparation of SAC, 900 year to sustain the
big elephant. 1t their Councilmen voted
for such an appropriation, the citizens
should call a meeting aud ask them TO "re-
sign dishonorably."
w. A. Carney, member of the Amalga-
mated Association, charged Mr.. Carnegie
with building Libraries and Immediately
afterwards reducing wages to pay for them
The following resolution was then read
and adopted
Resolved, That this meeting declares that
the Councils OF the city of Pittsburg shall
revoke their previous action in accepting
the donation from Mr.. Andrew Carnegie to
build a library Tor the city, and return the
money to its donor.
Prior to the meeting there was a parade
made up of local unions Nos. 4, 5, q, Al,
AZ and 50 of the American Flint Glass
Workers Union. 1t was headed BY posse
of police and the Select Knights Band.
The procession moved over the principal
streets of the Southside, and then proceeded
to this side of the river and escorted the
members of the Trades Assembly to the
Southside.
