GARMENT WORKERS EDICT
No Matter What the Decision of the
Court They Will Not Quit Boycotting.
Support Will Be Given the Locked 0ut Cloth
ing Cutters Until the Manufacturers Are
Beaten-Tbe Toledo Decision@

NEW YORK, April 4-From Walhalla Hall
this evening went forth the edict of the
united garment workers to the Clothing
effeot that the organization proposed to
stand by the locked out clothing cutters
until the manufacturers were beaten. and
that so-called labor unions not concerned
in the dispute had better keep
their hands off. Incidentally it was
proclaimed that whatever be tho
verdict of the Supreme Court the
organization proposed to 60 ahead with
the boycott until the manufacturers either
gave in or every organized laborer in the
land ceased to buy their clothing. The
hall was crowed TO suffocation. Delegates
with banners from the operators. cloak
makers, Brotherhood of Tailors. clothing
cutters, pressers and Ladies' Brotherhood
of Tallors were present. Joseph Barondess
presided. Amidst great enthusiasm the
following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, We believe that as American citizens
We have right TO organize for mutual protec-
tion in accordance with the everlasting republic
can principles OF freedom and Justice guaranteed
to Us by the Constitution Of the country.
c,stion of this city has locked ont onr hrs,hrso
the clothing cutters, for no other reason than
that they have defended the rights guaranteed
TO them by the COnstituti0n-tnat OF belonging
TO labor organizations.
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to stand
by those locked-out members OF the Clothing <
Cutters Union and cease work should such ac-
ton be necessary for the interest of the mem-
bers OF the cutters union and for the sacred
cause Of organized labor.
Resolved, That we condemn any man who as
sists oppressive capitalists against the interests
OF organized labor, and those OF the American
wages, no matter whether he does so under
cover of so-called organized labor or otherwise,
as a masked enemy of organized labor.
Resolved, That we call upon the citizens of
the State to uphold our rights by asking the peo-
pie 10 refuse to purchase clothing made by scab
labor.
Powderiy Judge Ricirs's Decision.
SCRANTON, Pa. April 4.-General Master
Workman Powderly said concerning the
decision of Judge Ricks in the case of enal-
neer Lennon: Tho decision shows. as
have said before. that the principle of gov
erpment ownership of railways is being
cision Is apparently against the men. 10
men has the right to supervise the rail-
work both ways. The In terstate- commerce
law was passed for the purpose of controli-
ing the railroads. but MP to date no rall-
road has paid any attention to the law.
Anarchy of the worst kind has prevailed.
BY that mean q total disregard for the
law, and that is what corporations charge
against the Anarchists"

The Natives Had Scruples.

Once an amusing story was told me
by South sea trader, writes Mrs. Rob.
ert Louis Stevenson He had been in the
habit of carrying all sorts of timed
meats, which the natives bought with
avidity Each tin was branded with a
colored picture-a COW for beef, SHEEP
for mutton and "A fish for sardines.
1t happened that the firm who fur.
nished the mutton thought it Il good
plan to change their labels, that theii
goods might be more easily distinguished
from others. The mark chosen was q
red dragon,
The natives came with their copra tc
trade as usual. The new tins were
shown them. but they recoiled with hor'
ror and gave the trader to understand
that they had had some religious in
struction and were not to be deluded in,
to eating timed devil.
The trader was forced to eat his stoch
of mutton himself, for not native could
be persuaded to touch the accursed
thing.

A waterspout Is meteorological phe'
nomenon of peculiar character which il
occasionally observed on land, but usu.
ally occurs at sea. 1t consists of cone
shaped pillar of condensed vapor, which
descends, with the apex downward, from
dense cloud and at sea attracts a
somewhat similar cone in reversed
position from the surface of the water.
The two may not inaptly be compared
to gigantic hourglass. The cause OF
this phenomenon is supposed to be the
gyratory movement of the air with such
swiftness as to produce a vacuum in the
axis of rotation, and the contact of the
lower extremity of such an axis with
water would effect the elevation OF a
column of the latter to a considerable
height. The most probable solution OF
the phenomenon is that waterspouts
originate in adjacent strata of air Of diff.
ferent temperatures, running in oppo,
site directions in the upper regions of the
atmosphere. They condense the vapor
and give it whirling motion, so that it
descends tapering to the sea below and
causes the surface of the water to ascend
in pointed spiral till 1T joins that from
above. Brooklyn Eagle.

Intin For the Indians.

A Madras native gentleman was once
asked by Lord Roberts what he thought
of india for the Indians" He replied.
Go to the geological gardens and open
all the cages You will then see what
would be the end of India for the In.
dams. There would be grand fight
among all the animals, with the result
that the tiger would walk over the dead
bodies of the rest" On being asked
whom he meant by the tiger, he replied,
THE Mohammedan from the north"
The moral of this allegory of my
friend, who was certainly one of the
most enlightened native gentlemen !
have ever met with, was that India
could not be left to herself and that q
supreme power was necessary to hold
together the varied and various races

If you are troubled with nervousness,
