Is the Output Of Concerns Now
United in a Huge Clothing
Trust.

Chicago, Jan. pa special to the
Tribune from New York says:
After years of quiet but persistent
effort the clothing manufacturers of the
country have finally organized a com
bine, to be known as the National
Clothiers' association.
The association begins operations I'M
der a consolidation having this pream-
BILE: THE purposes of this association
shall be to foster and promote the
clothing industry of the United States,
to promote uniformity and certainty in
it's customs and usages, and harmony
Of action among those engaged therein
to reform abuses in the trade and to Sc
cure freedom from unjust exactions; to
acquire, preserve and disseminate ac-
curate, reliable information relative to
the clothing trade and to promote
more enlarged and friendly intercourse
among those engaged therein"
The officers elected are as follows:
President, Samuel Rosenthal of Bal
timore; first vice president, Alfred Hook
stader of New York; second vice presi-
dent; Adolph Nathan of Chicago; treas
urer, Jacob S. Cheur of Cincinnati The
board of directors includes Abraham J.
Katz, Rochester, n. Y; Marcus M
Marks, New York; William S. Peck
Syracuse; Robert H. Wickes, Utica;
William Gushing, Boston, and Louis H
Kahn, Chicago.
The firms pledged to the scheme have
an annual output of $3.50, OOO,G COO.
The avowed purposes of the combine
are to do away with long credits, ex-
cessive rating and cancellation of or
ders, and to promote harmony where
rabid competition has heretofore pre-
vailed.
According to the organizers, it is to
serve purely as board of trade, so to
speak, for the clothing industry.
They assert with vehemence that
prices are not to be tempered with and
that each manufacturer will be at lib
erty, as heretofore, to conduct his bust
ness as he pleases.

ANTI-BURTON BOLT.
Twenty-Five Republicans Will
Stay Out of TOnight's
CaucnS.

Acting upon the suggestion that it
would be unwise for the Republican
members of the legislature to hold
caucus and indorse a candidate for
United States senator at this time,
twenty-five Republicans have an
nounced their determination to remain
out of the caucus to be held at the
Copeland tonight.
1t was suggested that the minority
of about twenty-nine members go into
the caucus and make an effort to pre-
vent the Endorsement of J. r. Burton
In the event the majority should de-
mand the Endorsement of Burton, it was
suggested that the minority walk out
of the caucus, but, to save friction, the
twenty-five members decided to remain
out of the caucus.
atives McKeever, Larimer and Brooke,
the Shawnee county delegation, are
among those who will not participate
in the caucus
Others are as follows:
Representatives John SeatOn, c. c. NC
Carthy. Bacon of Jackson, Gates of jack
son. Bradley of Hodgeman, Burkholder
of Marion, Baker and Henley of Doug
las. Smith of Brown, Senator Wallack,
Should the Burton men muster 30 votes
the nomination will probably stand, but
even the Burton men assert that unless
80 votes are secured. a majority of the
consider themselves bound by the action
of the caucus.

TO MAKE FEWER OFFICES.
a Republican Introduces a Resolu-
ton to Put Rem bers on Record.

Resolutions which were introduced in
the house today by Finney. Rep, of
Woodson, will put the members on rec
ord, on the proposition of abolishing
useless boards, and demonstrate wheth-
er or not the PopulistS mean what they
say about economy.
The resolutions went over until to-
morrow, under the rules, are as follows:
Whereas, There is d we'll founded
complaint among the people of this
state that taxes are too high, being not
only a burden to the taxpayers but
serious hindrance to immigration and
investment of capital in the state, rails
ing the rate of interest and in many
instances causing the loss of homes, and
Whereas, The people look to this leg
isIature for all the relief that is posi-
BILE to be given, therefore, be it
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves
to oppose the expenditure OF any money
for any new boards
That we are in favor of abolishing all
boards where the expenditures are out
of proportion to the benefits received
by our people.
That the committee on state affairs
be and are hereby requested to present
bills for the abolition of the offices of
grain inspector, board of irrigation, the
labor bureau, coal oil inspector, foreS-
try station, silk station, the board of
public works and any others that seem
to be more ornamental than useful.
That they also present a bill for the
management of all the penal institu-
lions of the state by a single board and
all the e1emOSynary institutions by one
board of charities and all the education
al institutions by one board of regents.

SCENES IN SOUTH CHICAGO.
Men Turned OFF by the Illinois Steel
Company Cold and Hungry.

Chicago, Jan. 22.-The xeenest poverty
is being felt by many of the 1900 employees
of the Illinois Steel company who were
thrown out of work Tuesday. Groups Of
idle men wander about in the snow and
rain. and their sad faces gave evidence
of what they suffer. Without money or
employment and almost without hope the
day was to many the bitterest of their
lives.
Poorly clad children wept in the streets
for food and begged of the passer-by for
money and clothing, while their fathers
sought at the grocery and meat market
for food on credit and were turned away
empty handed. Already in debt, and with
neither food nor fuel at home, entire fam
lies are in pitiful state.
The merchants and business men of
South Chicago are also sufferers from the
cut. AT the reopening of the steel works
in Novem Der many, in anticipation of in
creased business, laid in heavy stocks of
goods, and with such yesterday was q,
day of apprehension. Unable to extend
credit or to sell their goods for cash. they
were considering the advisa bility of clos
ing their doors at once and going out OF
business.
In the rail mill. where 500 or 700 were
laid off Tuesday, a few We're last night
reinstated, but in this department there is
not now employed third of the force
that went out. The company is said to
be hopeful of soon giving employment to
several hundred of the idle men, but to
the men there is not much encoura cement
in this. as they feel unable to weather the
shutdown even if it lasts only a few
weeks.

DON'T INSTRUCT GOVERNOR.
Governor Lewelling Says the Legis
lature Ought Not to Try It.

When house resolution requesting
Gov. Leedy not to appoint commission
ers of election, coal oil inspectors, for
restry commissioner and members of
the state board of irrigation until GER
tain bills now under consideration by
the legislature in reference to these po-
sitions be passed upon, came to the SEN
ate this morning, it was opposed by
ex-Gov. L. D. Lewelling. Gov. LeWelling
said:
Il am opposed to this resolution be-
cause / don't believe the senate or
house of this legislature has any right
to instruct the governor of this state on
business of his office any more than the
governor has a right to instruct the
legislature as to what it would do.
Gov. Leedy has the right to exercise
his judgment in regard to these posi-
tions. and 1 don't think the Legislature
should attempt to instruct him. We can
go ahead and legislate and at the same
time let the governor go ahead with the
business of his office without interior
ence.'
The opposition of Gov. Lewelling was
responsible for the resolution being re-
ferred to the committee on state af
fairs
