SIMPLY DEPIORABLE.
Great Suffering Among Coal Miners
on Account of Enforced Idleness.

on Account of Enforced Idleness.
Topeka, Kas., May H.-State Labor
Commissioner Birn has just returned
from Scranton, Usage county, where he
had been sent to Investigate reports of
suffering among the coal miners on ac-
count of enforced idleness. He declares
that the condition of some of the men
and their families is deplorable.
OF the 400 miners in and about Scran-
ton, 200 have had no work for six weeks
to two months and the others are getting
from So to $40 a week. The cause of it all
is, Of course, lack of demand for coal.
The idle men have tried to get work on
the farms or in other vocations, but the
labor market is overstocked, and they
finally appealed to the governor
Governor Morrill, has laid the matter be-
fore Receiver Joseph c. Wilson, of the
Santa Fe, in the hope that the company
may do something for the men.
About the same condition exists at Pc
terton Usage City and other places in
the Usage county district.

TEN PER CENT
INCREASE OF WAGES BY THE CAR
NEGIE STEEL COMPANY.
Business Outlook Justities the In
crease, and the Employers Take
Pleasure in Making the An
nOuncement.

Pittsburg, May 1.-THE board Of
managers of the Carnegie Steel COM
pany decided tonight to advance the
wages of its 5000 employees 10 per
cent, the raise to take effect on June l.
The notices. which will be posted in
all the mills tomorrow morning, read
as follows:
Notwithstanding the existing con-
tracts between the Carnegie Steel
company and its employees, fixing the
rate. of wages for 1895. this association
has decided that the present business
outlook will justify higher rates, and
accordingly takes pleasure in notify
ing its employees at the Edgar Thorn
son furnaces, Edgar Thomson steel
works, Duquesne steel works, Home
stead steel works, Lucy furnaces, Key
stone bridge works. Upper Union mills,
Lower Union mills and Beaver mills
that on Jnue /, 1895, and until further
notice, the scale rates paid to all
tonnage, day and turn men will be
increased 10 per cent. this without
prejudice TO the 1895 wage contracts
still in force.
by order of the board of managers,
H. c. FRICK,
Chairman"
This action is entirely opposed TO
what members of the board gave out
after Saturdays meeting on the de-
mand fer an increase .made by the
furnace men at the Edgar Thomson
furnace 1t is claimed, however, that
Mr. F'rick cabled to Andrew Carnegie
in England, and that the increase was
first suggested by Mr.. Carnegie. 1t is
not known what effect this action will
have on the fight for the amalgamated
scale, but this cannot be determined
accurately by reason of the fact that
the improved machinery of the Car
negie company's mills gives the men
much greater earning power than in
other mills This is the first advance

When Miss Flagler, the daughter OF
Gen. Flagler, at Washington, fred a

them, the shooting was intentional, al

The shot was fred because the boys

reference to the proposed amendment

ft. if nothing else. A pretended Dem.
ocratic paper is not to be excused foI
such q gross misrepresentation of q
matter that threatens the very founda,

This amendment says in so many
words that the General Assembly SHALL,
on application from any city, fix its
representation in the Assembly accord
ing to the wards of the city and that
only the voters in the wards shall be
permitted to vote for the representa-
tive who is placed on ticket from that
ward. Each ward is made an Assembly
District, at it were, and as the Repub-
licans control a majority of the wards
in every city, they can gerrymander us
out Of any representation whenever
they see fit.
