Crisp's friends that there is to be lots
of shaking up in the membership OF

places in the coming reorganization.
They do not feel free yet to openly
boas of these changes, which have in
reality been ordered by Mr.. Cleveland,
for although there is no candidate in

IN HIS CRADLE.
An Infant Deserted by His
Mother.
A Drunken Husband and a Wretched
Wife Who Grew Tired of Toll
ing for Three.

A sunny-hared little boy, not quite 2
years old, passed last night in the hospital
of the City Prison. His name is Miller,
and his home, when he nad a home. was ct
1858 Chestnut street, where he lived with
his parents, drunken father and toiling
hearbroken mother.
Mrs. Miller has been very despondent.for
some weeks, finding it exceedingly difficult
to support her husband and child on her
wages as a seamstress.
The unfortunate woman called upon a
neighbor between and o'clock yesterday
morning and. after telling the story of her
wretched eXlstence.t ito them, declared that
she was going away, as she was tired of
supporting drunken husband.
She kept her word, and what she did
with herself was unknown at Il late hour
last night, but when she departed she left
her child lying in his cradle. The little
fellow soon missed his mother and began 10
cry. The neghbor to whom Mrs. Miller
had told her tale of woe tried to enter the
house for the purpose of rescuing the in
FAINT, but was driven back by the fierce dogs
that held dominion over the yard, and the
little prisoner in the cradle continued TO
scream while the hours passed.
Late In the afternoon Miller returned and
entered the house. He remained about
fifteen minutes and went away. While he
WAS present the infant was silent, but
after his departure the deserted one re-
sumed his vocal exercise. Then the neigh
bors summoned Officer Dubois, who. after a
short, sharp battle with the dogs, entered
the house Ivy rear door. which had been
left open. There was little furniture in the
place. but everything the bluecoat saw was
neat and clean. In ca few moments he
emerged with Baby Miller in his arms and
made his way to the Central station

THE. LABOR COUNCIL.
Debate on the Question of Restriction
of Foreign immigration.


AT the meeting of the Labor Council last
evening communication was received from
the Musicians Protective Union to the
effect that it had decided to come into the
council and had elected the following dele
gates: D. w. Sullivan, A. C. Planer. j..
w. Coggin, A. Wolcott, c. Heube and Ii.
Kropp.
A copy OF the resolution sent to the Legis-
lature by the Sacramento Federated Trades
Unions regarding the abolition of the State
printing Office was received and ordered
filed.
1t was reported that the spur and bit
makers of this city had taken steps to
organize, but as the report was not official
no action was taken in the matter.
"A communication from the Cigar-makers
Union was received 10 which the council
was asked to indorse demand OF the inter-
national union thar none but union-made
cigars be sold on the Worlds Fair grounds.
The request was granted.
The brewery workmen called the atten.
ton Of the council to the fight they are
making against the brewery combine, and
asked the different unions to lend their as
sistance in putting an end to the fight.
The committee on law and legislation
reported adversely on the Senate bill rea-
tive to the in corporation Of labor unions.
and denounced it as being worthless and
lmpractlcabIe.
The committee on agitation reported that
tie subject of emigration had been chosen
as a subject for discussion, and Delegate
Macarthur, chairman of the committee, was
selected to open the debate.
Mr.. Macarthur made a short but pointed
speech. in which he expressed himself as
being in favor of combining foreign emiera-
ton within certain well-defned limits to be
fixed by the State.
The speaker was followed by Delegate
Mills, who opposed the views of Mr.. Nc
Arthur. and said be was in favor OF un-
limited emigration and sustained his views
by extracts from different papers.
Secretary McGlynn read an article from
the Morning Democrat in which it was set
forth that the emigration restriction move
ment was not the work Of labor unions, but
OF capital and politicians.
Several other delegates followed with re-
marks pertinent to the occasion and at the
close Of the debate it was finally conceded
that those in favor of restriction had the
best of the argument
