CABLEMEN's SICKNESS.
What a Physician Has 10 Say About
The Times Contention.


Editor Times: Your efforts To ameliorate
the condition OF the employees OF the
Washington and Georgetown Railroad Com
pany merit not only the gratitude OF the
men, but also the commendation OF all
phlanthropic citizens
Any one who is acquainted or at all init
mate with the men, has learned from them
over and over again OF the restraints and
petty tyrannics exercised over them by
their supcriors, yet, knowing all this,
is it not surprising that gripman No. 3,
OF the Fourteenth street line, should so
debase himself as TO so 10 the office Of
an evening paper and claim to be the
spokesman OF his fellow laborers, making
the statements that lie did. Ouly one con-
clusion follows, viz: that he is paid
hreling.
He says ia effect that the officers of the
road are kind, Just, and even generous
TO the men; magnanmous, even.
1t was not long ago that one young man,
a gentleman by instinct, and popular con
ductor, too, was suspended for thirty
days Tor the heiuous olfeuse Of eating his
MIDDAY meal seated IN his coach. although
not containing single passenger.
This act GTipman No. 3 considers gen
erous," we suppose. 1t is only one ill.,
stance OF many WHICH ml3nI DE Cllcu.
Any physician who has had professional
intercourse with the men know that their
ailments, when they have any, are almost
wholly due to their course of living with
reference to their meals, and that indi-
gestion is a very common complaint among
them.
The several propositions of this mag
unanimous superintendent made to the men
We're all onc-sided, like the handle of a
jug-a case OF heads l win and tails you
lose"
Remarkably generous was this, to al
low the men 10 help themselves, each at
the sacrifice of the other. No wonder the
men prefer to be let alone rather than be
subject to call during the whole running
time OF the road
Another generous act of this whole
souled superintendent is the assignment
of the men from duty every eighth or
twelfth day, without pay, whether they
wish the leave" or not
Keep the ball rolling, Mr.. Editor, and
all right-minded citizens, who want TO
see fair play. viii thank you

SHOULD BE MoDERNIzED.

There is something lndeScribably touch
ing in the case of the Italian girl, Maria
BarDeri, who was sentenced in New York
yesterday to be electrocuted for the muir
der Of her lover. Betrayed under promise
OF marriage, jeered at and insulted be-
cause she insisted on being made the law
ful mother OF an unborn child, the poor,
ignorant girl, in frenzied desperation,
became the avcnger OF her own wrongs,
and, unless her sentence is committed, VIII
suffer penalty that should never be
inflicted.
There may be certain classes OF muir
derers whose atrocious deeds warrant the
death penalty, but it seems terribly cruel
SO put a poor ignorant girl 10 death for
having killed the scoundreI who made her
life yalueIess Jurymeu and judges should
stop interpreting the statutes as an instru-
ment to take life for life, and perpeuaily
keep n force the old Mosaic law. Modern
intelligence demands that they be more
liberal aud iustead Of CHASING a poor
ignorant wronged ana half -crazed girl
with man who deliberately poisoned
Eis wife they should have imprisoned the
gir aud give her opportunity for refor-
nation and repentance.
II Is only too true that our statutes are

ods Of education have revolutioniZedl literary
circles. invention has given impulse andnew

and in every profession ana calling, except

the world has grown wings, our judicial

CHIyALRoUS KNIGHTS.

There was a time whenlabor unions closed
their doors 10 women, and when all their
energies were directed toward masculine
benefit. II they thought for the welfare
OF the Sex, it was only with thought to the
little woman at home-to the happiness
and prosperity OF the wife and mother.
Bat there were women outsideof thehome
good, patient women, old and young
who had a living to make, aud only made it
by hard, exacting toll. Their wages were
always OF the lowest, and they were the
victims OF the caprices and petty tyrannies
OF their employers.
They suffered because they were without
organization, and because organized labor
took little or no interest in them
This neglect was not the creature of
selfishness; it was rather the outcome OF
the conditions OF society, which enmeshed
employer and employed alike.
But all that is changed. workngmen
and workingwomen now realize that they
have interests in common, and that "the
Injury of one is the concern of all"
This was exemplified in the fine spirit
OF chivalry with which District Master
workman Simmons and his fellow Knights
pfLaborcameto heassistanceo eofthelaundry
girls OF Washington in their fight for o
living and against the encroschments OF the
Chinese.
The Chinaman has cot rates to such a
low figure that if he be patronized to any
extent the girls who make living-and not
good one by any means-at launday work
viii be driven out OF employment which, TO
them, means starvation. No matter how
low the Chinaman's income, he can live in
guxury-such a species OF luxury as is
nsuseous TO the AmrlcaA man OF woman;

highly Interesting meeting OF the
Carpenters Council was held last even
ing in the hall at No 627 Massachusetts,
avenue, and though the time was long drawn
out comparatively little OF the business
transacted was made public.
Probably the most important feature
OF the evening was communication which
Secretary Montgomery had received from
Messrs Furness, Evans & Co., architects
for Mrs. George w! Childs' new house, and
which he read before the assembly.
The Letter was received in reply to two
affidayits which the counsel had sent to
the architects. These affidavits were made
some time ago by two union men who swore
that they had made application TO Con-
tractor Lowrie for work on Mrs Childs'
new house and he refused them on the
ground that they were union men. The
meeting voted TO have the leNter published

Dear Sir: In reply to your letter of
June, 1888, we beg to state that Mrs.
George w. Chlds has already expended
between five and six hundred dollars more
than was necessary to obtain good and
competent wOrkInen for her house. This
she has done from a feeling OF good viii
toward your organization, and We are
greatly surprised that any reputable labor
organization should persist i'll annoying
her in the way i'll which you do. Hoping
that YOU VIII see fit not TO so annoy her
in the future, we beg to remain,
Very respectfully,

own pocket in increased wages and now
Mrs. ChildS architect affirms that she has
| expended $500 or $500 more than was
necessary 10 secure labor on her house.
