NEW YORK Sept. 30.-SaInuel Gompers,
ex president, and z. J. Mcguire, vice
president, Of the American Federation of
Labor, who left here on Aug. IA to attend
the trade union congress at Cardiff and to
make a study of labor questions in Euro
pean cities, arrived home on the steamer
New York. AS result of his Observa-
tions Gompcrs said: ''Therc is no work
man in the world the equal in energy and
the possession of the comforts of life of the
the English, French or German workman.
He has longer hours generally, but he is
almost universally better paid and spends
more in living than the average European
laborer earns. He holds II higher social
position, and the conditions of his life are
far more sympathetic with the ideas of
manhood"
He continued: ''The Germans are
growing in trades unionism, but thirty
years o; partisan political activity has not
brought the results desired They arc be-
ginning to build up their movements on
practical lines, however, and will soon
learn more progressive methods. In
France organized labor is very ineffective

seeing the operations of the government

would be issued by . committee Of which
the spring millers would have two thirds

mcEt
History Of the Movement.
To fully understand the movement 1t
may &c said that two months ago at Il
meeting Of leaders of the National Miliers'
association in Minneapolis it was susges-
ted that a plan be formulated whereby the
brokers and other outsiders could not toy
with the -four market as they saw fit and
force the millers to dance their musicc, but
by which the millcrs themselves could CON.
troll the market to an extent sufficient to
protect themselves, if nothing moro. The
men at this meeting were principally
spring wheat millers. The spring wheat
millers produced about two-thirds of the
-four of the country. Their action was
rendered doGbly necessary by the fSct that
the markets are mt present flooded by an
ovcr-production of about Il, 900, 900 barre
of flour.
Plan That Was Agreed Upon.
After two weeks more of elaboration a
plan was worked out and submitted for
Judgment. This plan proposed to form u
combination of millers and FIX the mini.
mum price ut which the output of the
mills will be sold. No miller may go I'M
der this price. All may sell above
it. To solve the ver-production
problem it was decided to have all
mills reduce their production Is per Ut,
which would make difference of aim, 1t
4,OO0,O 600 barrels in a year. Ii the..,narkct
should pick up ut any time the per cent.
Of the reduction in production would be
proportionately reduced. All mills fail
ing to reduce their products when mott.
fed shall, according to the agreement, pay
| to the association or combine 10 cents for
every barrel of -four in excess of the agreed
rate of production.

THE TROOPS AND POLICE AND

FORTY HAVE BEEN INJURED.
New York, Jersey City and Newark Elec-
trio Hen Consult With the Brooklyn
Men With q View of Making the
Strike General--An Attempt
to Burn De,,t

Brooklyn, Jan. 22.-The first serious
clash between the troops and police
and the Brooklyn strikers occurred at
Myrtle and Gates avenues last night.
Three companies of the Seventh Regi-
ment, of New York, under Major Kip,
were escorting the first car that has
left the Ridgewood station since the
strike, when they were attacked by a.
mob. They drew their revolvers and
fired into the crowd. There was a re-
turn fire from the mob, who sent a
scattering volley. Private Ennis, Of
Co. H, was wounded by pistol shot.
Six members of Co. G were injured by
stones. Capt. Dunn, of the Fourteenth
Precinct, was badly battered by the
strikers. George Mohrman, patrolman
Of the Twentieth Precinct, was beaten
by strikers and sent to the hospital.
-Four strikers were wounded and car
ried away by friends. So far as is
known thirteen persons were injured
in the battle.
The car which was the cause of all
the difficulty had to be defended all
the way down Gates and Stuyvesant
avenues At almost every corner it
was awaited by mobs, and the police
fired their pistols, and finally the
troops fired their muskets into the air
to keep off the strikers. Capt. Apple
ton said: "My company shot to kill and
a number of the rioters were hit and
carried away by their friends"
Judge Gaynor has granted an order
to show cause why writ of manda-
mus should not issue to compel the
Brooklyn Heights Railroad Company
to resume the operation of it's lines.
The wires are cut on Myrtle avenue
and Knickerbocker avenue, and all the
linemen struck this morning.
Forty men, including rioters, soldiers
aud policemen, have been injured dur
ing the past week.
Presidents Norton and Lewis notified
the police that they would attempt to
start cars on the Fifteenth street, But
Ter street and Broadway lines.
Col. Appleton's guard dispersed
crowds with the butt ends of their
muskets.
1t is now learned that an attempt
was made to burn the depot last night
Delegates from the electric lines Of
New York and Jersey City and New
ark will come here to consult with the
local strikers with a view of making

Another conference between the
strikers, the Mayor and the railroad
officials will be held with a view Of
fixing up the grievance.
