Two Thousand Men After Forty
Places.
DENVER, Aug. 16.-The great dis
parity between the number of men out
Of employment and the amount of work
to be had was strikingly illustrated
when 1900 men gathered at the place
where work on the new sewer was to
begin. There was work for only 40
men. A crowd of about 500 Italian
laborers gathered near the spot, but
were not allowed to approach by the
crowd which exhibited considerable
feeling, but was quiet and orderly.
Only three Italians were given work
and they were known to be old resi-
dents of the city. The projected public
improvements cannot possibly supply
work for all the unemployed.
