A Phiisd sIphisn Very Low and Two Men
In Jail.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 21.-In conse-
quence of a brutal beating received
three weeks ago at the hands of J. w.
Priestly, a well-known carpet manu-
facturer, and a man named Michael
Harkins, Gustav Goethert, a music
teacher. and proprietor of piano store
in this city, is lying at the point of death
at his home, 1882 Girard avenue.
Goethert had been employed by
Prlestly to teach the latter's l2-year-old
daughter music. About the first OF the
present month, when the child had nm
isned her lesson, Goethert compll-
mented her upon her learning and
printed a kiss on her cheek. The girl
informed her parents and Priestly be-
came angry and declared that the music
teacher should be punished. On the
evening of Nov. 10, Priestly is said to
have gone to GUethert's store and after
upbraiding him, beat him severely.
Not satisfied with this rebuke, he is said
TO have returned again with Harklns
and Goethert was again beaten.
PTIestly and Harkins have been ar
rested and committed to prison TO await
the result of GOethert's injuries.

I'VE believe that the action taken by
Sheriff Cram last evening was wise
from the standpoint of the public good
and also from the standpoint of the
good of the Republican party. Out of
the cloud of insinuations and innuen-
dos which have been hurled at the sher-
IFS office as well as at other depart
ments OF government in the city and
state, definite charges have been very
meagre One charge has been made
against Deputy Charles A. Plummer
which can be investigated, and we have
no doubt will be Investigated. The
removal of Deputy Goold cannot fail to
have good effect on the discipline of
the department. as from the latter's
close family relations with the sheriff
1T is a most torcible announcement that
whatever changes are necessary are to be
made without favor.

had been submitted to it, These had
been referred to the action of it's local
Unions to be reported upon It the next
convention. Debs elnbodi d some of
these things in his declaratIo.l OF princi-
pies. Just bt fore the beginning of this
year he formed the American Railway
union, ana on January l he issued the
first number of the Railway Times in
Chicago.
Through the winter Debs and Howard
travelled through the West, South and
Northwest, and even to San Francisco,
spreading the new organization. they
proposed to come East alsv, but were
advised that the men were not yet ady
for it.
The new union consists of Il general
union with local branches. Every man
who is in the employ Of a railroad, or
who has ever been in such employ, is
eligible to mem hership, except suen as
Yard master, train master, genera ge ut
and the like, or higher. The initii ii IN
Zee IS ~, 81 of which goes to the support
Of the general union.
The general purposes of the union, as
declared in lis constitution, are the
protection of members in all matters re-
lat1ng to wages and rights; the securing
OF right to employees to be heard in
court in proceedings for the settlement
OF labor troubles, insurance and the Sc
curing by political action of legislation
for safety appliances for trains; for regu-
laing hours of labor, for regular pay
ment of wages, and for other purposes
Debs says that the Union has $50, 000
members. The constitution provides
quick way of bringing about action on
labor troubles. If the local union cannot
settle the trouble it refers the matter to
the general union, and if the latter's
mnittee do nAt succeed they refer it
to the board of directors, who are en-
powered to do whatever SENS best to
them without more ado.
'Fhe general union is To hold four meet
ings a year. The first one was held at
Chicago, beginning on the second Tues
day in June. 1t was at this meeting that
the boycott on the Pullman cars was de-
elared. Labor men say the Pullman
matter was merely pretext Tor trial of
strength with the railroads. That the
union felt strong there is no doubt. 1t
had another reason than the strength of
It's own mem bership for this belief. aud
this may explain VIII SO many men who
do not belong to the American Railway
union have quit work to help it.
On June Il there WAS conference at
st. Louis, at which there were represent
81 the American Railway union, the
A nericau Federation of Labor, the
b .therhood of Locomotive Engineers, the
brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, the
Brotherhood of Railway Conductors, the
brotherhood of Railway Firemen, the
Knights of Labor, the GreauBottle Blow
ers association aud the Farmers ALI
ance. At this meeting II practical work
ing alliance between all Of the organiza-
tions was proposed. All were to support
any strike in which more than 1000 men
were involved, each was to recognize
bers of the other, and they were to
act together politically against the old
parties.
The latter suggestion was adopted.
The Others went over until 1895. when
another meeting is to be held: hut

THE NEW LABOR POWER,
Debs and His Recently Organized Ameri-
can Railway Union.

Eugene V. Debs who has suddenly
come to view as the director of the Pull
man boycott is young man. He was
born in Terre Haate Ind. Nov. 5 1855.
Hi father was family grocer there.
The son tended store in the daytime and
got his education at night. His first
work was in the paint shops of the Van
dalia railroad from which position he
rose to be fireman on locomotive
running between Terre aaute and Van
dalia.
1t was not however until he Joined
lodge of the brotherhood of the Locomo-
tive Firemen that he developed his am
bition. He was sent as delegate to the
conventions and ultimately became editor
of the Locomotive Fireman's Magazine.
In 1884 he was sent to the State Iegisla-
ture by the Democrats. In 1879 he was
elected city clerk of Tepre Haute. In
1898 he set to work to organize the
American Railway union.
Personally Mr.. Debs is an earnest quiet
determined man with good deal of I'M
demonstrative egotism. No one in Terre
Haute ever suspected him of being either
a philosopher or a general. His views
are not very broad and his education as
limited but he is resolute and fearless
1t is said by those who know him best
that the present boycott is an experiment
TO test the power of the new organiza-
ton. No man of ordinary sagacity, eth
er in Ierre Haute or Chicago, so far dis
parages Mr.. Deb's intelligence as to sup
pose for one moment that he thought he
could force all the railroads of the coun-
try to break their contracts with the
Pullmans and violate their agreements
with the public.
But, like all men of limited CAPACITY
and experience who come suddenly into
power, he wanted to WELD that power.
and did not stop to consider the aggre.
gate of suffering that the blind obedience
to his arbitrary command would entail.
Deb's lieutenant is G. W. Howard. chief
of the brotherhood of Railway Conduc-
tors. Howard is vice president of the
new union. Debs and Howard began the
organizationsof the American Railway
union year ago. They found the West
ern railroad men all stirred up andsready
for ansaggressive policy. The American
Federation of Labor held convention
in the fall and set OF resolutions favor
ing national ownership of railroads and
telegraphs and other socalistic doctrines
