SORROWS OF SOVEREIGN.
Not Yet Satisfied With the Mischief
He Has Done.

Chicago, July 13.-Grand Master
Workman Sovereign was seen this eve
ming after he had received the decision
of the mana gers of the Association and
the Federation of Labor.
We'll" said he, "the general mana
gers treat us with silent contempt and
condemn us to death. I suppose they
expect US to die without any resistance,
but they are mistaken. We will make
a struggle. We shall try to tie up all
of the roads. But if we cannot do that,
we can at least tie up one road and
keep it tied up. 1 have seen Debs to-
night, and we agree that there is but
one thing to do, and that is to fight on
to the end and with renewed energy.
AS to the declaration of the Federa7
ton of Labor, Sovereign sad:
ut is too verbose to merit much con-
sheraton. 1t is far better as to it's
rhetoric than as to its logic We are in
a crisis. This document deals with the
cries; what we need is action. Sym
pathy is not what we want; we want
a coalition of forces against corporate
powers, and uness we can get it, we
might as well at once consent to be
serfs. The strike has just begun. 1
think the position taken by the FEEDER
alton of Labor will only weaken their
own forces. l believe the local unions
will give us their support l see no
way but to fight it to a finish. and
shall stand by the A. r. u. until thev
call the strike off

although the retrenchers may get to-
gether this afternoon. Mr.. ClaWson
wants an opportunity to defend the
figures contained in his minority report
onu the retrenchment proposition anc
has requested the chairman OF the
committee to hold a meeting before he
leaves for the east, in case one is in con-
temptation. Mr.. Clawson asked to be
excused for month at the last meet
ing of the council, stating that he was
about to leave for New York in a few
days. His date of departure was fixed
for Sunday and in order to give the
gentleman his desired opportunity of
showing wherein his report is much t p

to be held today.
1t is stated that as soon as the ma
jority of the committee have made a
number of alterations in the first report
drafted the matter of retrenchment will
be presented to the council for further
action. The members of the committee
see that there is a lack of uniformity
in the amounts allowed the various de-
partments, the amount of the former
expenditures and receipts not having
been carefully taken into considerat ton.
For this reason the report is to be
revised.

Securing the Right Of w,x

The proposed changes in the route
of the gravity sewer, from Seventh
North to Ninth North, will mean a
great big saving to the city. providing
the outstanding property owners
do not hold their rights of
way too high. 1t means
the shortening of the system over S0O
feet, and gives the main g more direct
line. Instead of following the streets
from the intersection of Seventh North
and Second West streets, the new route
would cut straight across the blocks to
Ninth North. Negotiations for the
now on, and the indications for
speedy settlement are very
favorable. Several of the property
owners are outside residents and they
are therefore not very easy of access.
but the majority of the local people
have already given their promises, a
number of them preferred their ground
without expense to the city, providing
they have the right to drain their land
into the system. There could be no
possible objection to this and the pro
positions will be accepted. President
Doremus of the board of public works
stated yesterday that while he favored
the change for the reason that it would
be a considerable saving of the CITY
and shorten up the line of the
sewer, there were also arguments-very
sood ones-in favor of the former route,
One was the ease with which the
sewer men might gain access in the
event of any obstruction, and another.
the freedom from private property. At
the time the line was laid off an at
tempt was made to secure the rights of
way that are now so desirable. but the
property owners had their ideas inflated
and set too high price on the land. The
contractor have been running for
eleven days without being able to get
the cement previously ordered through,
owing to the railroad tie-up, and they
have held out remarkably we'll Unless
supplies are received very soon, how
ever, delay on certain parts or the
work will be unavoidable.
