LABOR TRUSTS PETITION.

LABOR TRUSTS PETITION.
The committee on sewers submitted
the following:
In the matter of the preamble and
resolution of G. R. Berry and others,
ipurporting to be on behalf of an organi-
cation calling themselves 1.-THE Labor
Trust" referred to your committee on
sewers. we beg leave to report as fol-
lows:
Your committee feel compelled to say
that this council has no authority to
interfere with the wages given or pre-
scribed by the gravity sewer contract
ors or their sub-contractors; but we
can but add that we very much depre-
cate the fact that wages have been re-
duced to the minimum to which they
have been reduced ON the sub-contract
work. when bearing in mind that the
men are required to buy their own
tools, rubber boots, etc, and that board
at their boarding house or elsewhere
costs about SIS week
We hope that the gravity sewer con-
tractors will see their way clear to pay
the same wages as other city contract
ors, especially when they require two
additional hours per day upon that
work. Without condemning anybody
and without in any way seeming to in
terfere with anybody's business, we
think that the interests of the city will
be best subserved by working in har-
mony if possible with the laboring men.
In Justice 10 the contractors we desire
to say, however, that the charge that
men are compelled to board at their
boarding house is not correct. 1t is
purely voluntary on the part of the
men whether they board there or not.
Further, we find that the contractors
are paying $175 per day for excavating
while the sub-contractors, Fox & Wat
son, are paying only $1.50 per day for
similar work
NEWELL thought moral sualsion
might be used upon the contractors
with gratifying results. Hardy warned
the council that to undertake anything
more would be hazardous, while Young
declared the council helpless in the
matter.
The report of the council was
adopted.

CANNOT SEE HER CHILD.
Judge Gildersleeve Denies the APP
pIication of Mrs. KOrn.

Judge Gildersleeve, in the Superior
Court, has denied the application Of
Hattie Korn to be allowed to see her
eight-year old son, Isidor Piser. once
a week.
Mrs. Korn was formerly Mrs. Joseph
Pisel. In May. 1898. she began a suit
for absolute divorce, upon statutory
grounds. The Ease went before a ref
cree, and the evidence never became
public. The couple were married OIL
Mrs. Piser failed to prove her case,
but Mr.. Piser brought and proved coun-
ter charges, and upon he referees
finding he was granted an absolute d.
Sorce.
Subsequent to the entry Of the decree
Mrs. Piser went to Jersey city and was
married to Henry H. Korn, a member
of the Standard Dyeing n Finishing
Company, of Stamford, Conn. They
live at 94S Lexington avenue, this city.
In denying the application Judge
Gildersleeve says: while 1t Is hard on
the mother. the Court has no power to
interfere. The Court has no jurisdiction
to grant such an order to a woman
who violates her marriage vows. When
a woman commits adultery she ~forfeits
all right to care, control, educate or to
the companionship of minor children"
