OPPOSED To FOREIGN LABOR.
Building Trades Council Takes Action
on the Matter.

Contractor Usher who is constructing the
sewer at Brookland for the District Com
missioners, does not. it is said. intend TO
give any employment on that public i'm
provement to any citizen of the District OF
Columbia
This, at least, was what a committee ap-
pointed by the Building Trades Council to
see Mr.. Usher in reference to the matter
reported to that body at its weekly meeting
last evening The committee further re-
ported that they had found a large number
of Italians working on the sewer, and that
Mr.. Usher Informed them that he intended
to bring mechanics from outside the Dis
trict to do those portions of the work that
required skill; that he already had these
mechanics in his employ, and that he did
not have to pay them as much wages
District mechanics are paid.
The committee further stated that they
asked Mr.. Usher whether the men he in
tends to bring here are members of
ganiZed labor societies, and his reply WAS
that he neither knew nor cared whether
they We're or not.
The report of the committee was discussed
at great length, and the speakers were
agreed in their opinion that the fault was 10
be found in the public contract system.
President William Maghan of the Brick
layers Union, who is also a member of the
Building Trades Council said that he
thought the council ought to take some ac-
ton in regard to the matter and the hest
way, in his judgment. to do this was TO peti-
ton Congress on the subject.
Continuing, Mr.. Maghan said: "If the
labor of the District were given to the resi-
dents there would be less need for charity
or begging. There We're more applications
for positions on the Brookland sewer than
places to fill, and yet the contractor brought
Italians in to do the work and shut out the
laboreIs at home"
On motion of Mr.. Maghan the action of
the local branch of the American Fedora
ton of Labor in the matter was Endorsed
by unanimous vote, and following this
action, the opinion was expressed that the
powerful influence of the national body
which will, 1t is understood, be exerted in
that direction, will he sufficient to secure n
repeal of the present contract law by Con-
gress
A motion was also adopted unanimously
that the other central labor bodies In the
District be requested to cooperate with the
Building Trades Council in an effort TO Sc
cure repeal of the law relating to the cree
ton OF public buildings.
Messrs z. l.. OBrien, William Silver. s
NJ Wilder, ]. NJ. Reed and J. NJ. Boyce were
appointed committee to arrange for the
coming Labor day celebration, and instruct
ed to communicate with the local branch of
the A. +. of L., the Federation of Labor, and
D. A. G6. K. of L., and ask their co-opera-
ton in making the day a great success The
attendance was excellent, and the affairs
of each union reported to be in a prosperous
condition.

GIVEN TEN YEARS.
Judge Cole Deals N blow at Profess
siOnaI burglars.

Judge Cole today struck the profession OF
burglary another severe blow when he SEN
fenced James Murphy to ten years hard
labor in the Albany penitentiary, the ex-
IRENE penalty.
Murphy, a middle-aged white man, was
caught by Policeman Spencer on the back
porch of the house of Arthur B. Burrows.
Carroll avenue. Takoma Park about O. clock
the morning of the 9TH of this month Tine
man was in the act of breaking open a
child's savings bank when the offia~r was
attracted by the noise. He ran off upon the
approach of the officer but stumbled and
fell, and before he could get up the police
man had him. On him was found a fine
steel sectional jimmy and also coin.
The house, used residence and drug
store, was found TO have been entered.
and the money drawer in the store was
discovered to have been pried open the
coin found IN the man having been taken
therefrom. The back shutters of the house
had been broken open, and IL was found
that the child's bank had been stolen from
it.
Murphy was indicted this morning, and
pleaded guilty when arraigned later in the
day before Judge Cole. 1T appears to me,
Murphy" remarked the judge, that YOU
are a professional burglar i am informed
that your picture adorns Pinkerton's rogues'
gallery. Can you show me that heretofore
you have been an honest man. or why 1
should not give you the extent OF the law"
Il have no friends here your honor" eX-
planned Murphy. Il came here from Pitts
burgh, and don't belong in this country
1t wasn't a jimmy they found on me.
Only box opener 1 had found. This is
my first offense, sir"
Il do not believe you, Murphy" replied
Judge Cole. You ere evidently a profess
sional burglar, and / feel that / should
give you the extreme penalty allowed in
such a case. That is ten years in the peni-
Tertiary. And the sentence is that you be
confined In the Albany penitentiary at hard
labor for the period of ten years, to date
from your arrival there"
BY pleading guilty Murphy evidently eE-
pected TO escape with a light sentence. and
staggered when he realized the severity of
the one imposed on him.

1t will be remembered that the negro was

nothing to connect the prisoner directly
with the murder. Under the pumping pro-

to connect him with the murder the police
