THE IRONCLAD LAW.
Labor Commissioners Powers and the 500
Road viii Have a Round In Court.

Labor Commissioners Powers and the Soc
Road Will Have Round In Court.
ST. PAUL Feb. 3.-State Labor Com.
missioner Powers held a long confer.
ence with General Manager Underwood
OF the 500 road in Minneapolis, when
the question of the enforcement of the
so-called ironclad law was discussed in
all its different phases. For some time
Mr.. Powers has intended to bring the
matter of the observance of the law into
force. At this meeting the commits
sioner learned that the road took the
ground that the law was unconstitu-
tional and was given to understand that
it would test it through the courts, step
by step, if necessary, until the highest
tribunal in the country had declared it
valid or invalid.
VIII Begin tho Suit.
Mr.. Powers went to the county attor-
ney and asked him to draw up papers
against the company compelling it to
adhere to the provisions of the law.
Specific cases We're mentioned which
include the alleged discharge of some of
the boilermakers, of three conductors,
and of Roich, one OF the machinists,
whom it is claimed was let out about
three weeks ago, one of the alleged
reasons being that he was a union man.
The county attorney, as soon as he can
do so, will begin the suit as requested
by Mr.. Powers.
81 had long talk with Mr. Under
wood" said the labor commissioner,
land we discussed the law from our re-
spective points of view. Mr.. Under
wood claims that if man comes to him
and wants job, and he refuses to give
him one because he is union man, he
is not violating the law, because the man
is not an employee of the road until he
has been hired and put to work.
Now, while he may he right on that, it
does not follow that man in his employ
can be discharged because the officials
find that he belongs to some organiza-
ton. Mr.. Underwood, however, claims
that the
Entire Law Is Unconstitutional,
and so we have decided to bring these
cases and test its validity. have some
strong specific cases, and when the mat
ter does reach the court our side will be
as strong as it would be possible for us
to have it. think the law is all right,
and il it Is we want to have it enforced.
Mr.. Underwood says that if the law is
declared constitutional by the supreme
court he will remove the shops of the
500 road into some state where such
law is not on the statute books"

MILWAUKEE, Feb. S-The attorneys
in the Northern Pacific fight, who spent
day in skirmishing, got down to the
real business in the case, and consumed
the entire day in arguments, some of

which he thought it would be necessary
to take proof. Considerable time was
consumed in going over the synopsis and
explaining it to the satisfaction of the
court. So much progress has been made,
however, that it is probable that argu-
ment will be finished in another day.

Spring at Low Rates.
CHICAGO, Feb. s.-The failure of the
Lake Carriers association to effect the
laying up of one-fourth of the boats for
the season, to avoid ruinous rates from
competition, has induced vesselmen to
accept the very low rates to store grain
the rest of the season, and take it to
Buffalo in the spring. The vesselmen
are undertaking the elevators SO seri-
ously that considerable grain is likely to
be transferred to the boats.
Not vessel owner in Chicago has
