GRAVE-DIGGERS' TRIALS.
Calvary Employees Will Appeal to
the Archbishop.

LONG ISLAND CITY, June 23.-The
grave-diggers and teamsters employed
in Calvary Cemetery met last night at
Laurel Hill and organized a union
to devise some means to prevent a
prospective reduction in wages.
a The men have also a grievance against
Timekeeper Ryan. They say he is a
regular autocrat; that he fined Patrick
FO'Burn two hours pay because he rested
a few minutes after digging a grave 8
feet deep. They say Ryan dismissed
Hugh Clark, another grave-digger, be-
cause he drank glass of beer with his
dinner. John Hart. who was the first
foreman in Calvary, 1t Is alleged, was
fined one-half days pay by Ryan be-
cause he did not hurry up. to work.
Hart. who is seventy years of age. was
offered pension by the trustees. but
said he would rather work.
1t was decided to present the griev-
ances to Archbishop Corrigan, Chair
man of the Board Of Trustees Of the
Cemetery, and ask him for the removal
of Ryan. The men will also ask the
Archbishop to prevent their wages being
reduced.
