THE HOLDERS UNION.
IL Had n Right to Discipline . Member
Who Violated the Rules.

Who Violated the Rules.
TACOMA, Dec 1l.-[Special. lin the in
teresting suit for damages for loss of time
brought by Robert Bruce against the Iron
Moldera' Union. il has been decided by a
superior court jury in favor of the union.
OF which Bruce was the organizer. He
had always been \ firm union man, but
had trouble with some members Of the
union and, having previously violated one
of the rules, was fined $. He took oifense
at the fine and indulged in disparaging
remarks. In so doing he violated another
rule. which he himself had created, to-
gether with others, and Is a penalty he
was fined $25. Bruce refused to pay up.
HIS request for withdrawal of his card
was refused, and he was therefore in bad
standing with the union and could not Sc
cure work. In disposing of the case the
Jury states that the union had q right to
impose the fines, and that Bruce was him
self at fault in falling into bad standing.
Another feature of the case was tie way
in which Judge Pritchard returned thanks
to the jury. His reason was the fact that
the Ledger the enemy of the labor unions,
had tried to anticipate the sealed verdict
and failed. 1t intimated that Bruce would
have q verdict for 81. 500. The court was
glad that the verdict was as il was, be-
cause il IL had been for the amount
guessed at, 1t would carry with 1t the infer
ence that the jury had violated the Sc
crecy that the court demanded Of it.

Cordray's reopening last evening was
marked by crowded house and was an
artistic success. The many regular pa
irons OF the house turned out handsomely
to greet the Titteli sisters. Minnie and
Essie. and the many floral gifts

membranes In which these two young
ladies are held In Seattle. The programme
embraced two plays, tho curtain-raiser
Judith" and the powerful classical play
"Insomar, tho Barbarian" both well
suited to bring out the strong points in the
young ladies, as we'll as to favorably
introduce r. l.. French, an old favorite in
Seattle. The excellent staging of each
play was strong feature, the many new

attracting marked attention. Miss Min

she received half dozen elegant bouquets
and basket. The play Of Judith" tells
a pathetic little love story, which afforded
Minnie. as Judith, an excellent opportun-
ity to display vein of light comedy
tinged with pathos. The feature of this
play was the introduction Of the song
"Lenora." which Miss Minnie sang with
such good effect as TO secure hearty encore.
At the drop of the curtain she was hon
ored with call, which was answered by
the raising Of the curtain.

piece OF acting throughout. She showed
herself to be possessed of the power of
swaying her audience to laughter or tears
rs the occasion arose, and in a number
OF her more tragic scenes she rose TO
a grandeur that showed her to be pos
sessed of powerful dramatic force. The
temperance of L. Il. French as Ingomar

signal for round of applause

Mr.. French has a splendid physique and

Disc ussisn Of the supreme Court De-
eisfon-H usen's vfsis 90 the springs.
TAeoxA. Dee. 1I-fSpecial. THE de-
cision published today in the Posr-IsTEI-
rreExcKa. wherein the United States su-
preme court, in q case corresponding to
the Tacoma water bond issue, decides the
same to be unconstitutional. created much
stir here among those who have always
questioned the wisdom OF the whole trans
action and are cognixant of the means by
which the deal was put through. The fact
that taxpayers need not meet assessments
for the water plant purchase pleased many
heavy taxpayers, who shrink from the
burden thrust upon them.
The Communication of Mayor Huson to
the city council also comes in for Q share
Of comment The mayor referred to the
doubts entertained about the prospect of
finding an adequate supply Of water at the
Patterson and Thomas springs. and adds:
81 have myself visited the site of Patter-
son springs and am very much in doubt II
enough water can be obtained from this
source 20 justify the city in making the
expenditure necessary 10 avail itself OF this
water"
He joined with the board of public works
In recommending that the investigation
in the direction of the Maplewood springs
be continued. 4 citizen says:
"It is a very la:e day for Huson to notify
the people that 4, myself, have visited the
springs etc. In Rudolph Herring's report
it is stated that he Acknowledges the as
sistance of city officials in arriving st his
conclusions, /. e., that there were 100000
gallons per day at the Patterson springs.
The water company through the local
press advertised IN big letters that there
were 7, SOC, 600 gallons per day. Now if i.
myself had visited the springs he might
have told the people during the water
campaign what sort of water supply they
might expect from that source"
Its, OF course, intimated that the city
council was not alone in the water
'bunko" business last spring.
