Council Of Labor

At the last regular meeting of the
council communications were read from
Senator S. NJ. White, Congressman Cas-
tie of the Seventh district, c. A. Barlow,
James G. Mcguire and others.
They all agreed with the posi-
tion taken by the council in resolution
passed at former meeting. and agreed
to vote against any increase of the to-
bacco tariff on Havana filters or import
ed wrappers. The bill, however, passed
the house in its original form and is now
before the senate.
The secretary was authorized to write
the city council calling attention to
violation not only of the eight hour law
but of the law recently passed. by the
Legislature requiring minimum wage CT
50 per day. 1t was claimed that contrac-
tors on public work were violating these
laws.
A communication was received from
the labor council of San Francisco stat
ing that the Union iron works of that city
were about to employ fifty Japanese
students" Also that the board of su-
pervisors had adopted the union label on
all printing.

You may never have been, but IL you cross

commercial travellers and yachtsmen say
that there is no finer safeguard against

suffer as much in those conveyances as
ocean travellers do in steamships. Bilious

LOVE THY NEIGHBoR
Rev. Alfred Clark Applies His Text
to Present Conditions

Rev. Alfred Clark of Christ's church
preached yesterday from the text, found
In Matthew xxii:39. Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself."''
Mr.. Clark said in part. as follows:
"A month ago l spoke upon the love
of God which should fill the mind, heart
and soul At that time had in mind
its carrelated truth, thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself / say carre-
lated for the love of God and the love of
man is one in essence. Love must be
all powerful, must fill the being, must
demand the whole of ones energeies and
efforts. The love We bear our fellow
for God, but in its relations the stan
dard by which it is gauged and regulated
is self. Here we find our Lord in touch
with nature, in sympathy with human
ity. Here Christianity is differentiated
and different from all the other beliefs
since the beginning of the world. The
tendency had been to suppress self. Our
Lord took this self the world has sought
to obliterate as the standard by which
we shall measure love for our fellow
man.
1--WE are taught it is right for man to
seek his own personal happiness; but
there are limitations to be kept in view,
self love needs a check, and in the de-
claration that we must love our neigh
Dor os ourself we find the check, and so
selfshness is eliminated, not by destroy
ing it, but by giving it new outlet.
Humanity has been prompt to recognize
the principle quality at the base of our
nature, and to upraise it to the holiness
of love. In the past many lives have
been great and sacrifices have been
made for others that have gone down
into history as having given all for
others. Neither personal panegyric nor
history of the past has taught to the
many the beauty of self sacrifice. But
this is recognized by Christianity, and 1t
should be the ordinary rule of conduct.
not to leave it for a friend to do all for
the human race, but each to have
share in the glory for all.
Mr.. Clark then applied his text to the
question today SO serious to the nation,
the relation of labor to capital. The
struggle Is great in the present move
ment on the part of the laborer, and
also on the part of the leaders. We
must recognize not only those who work
with their hands and the capitalists,
but also the middle classes who are
struggling to bring them together There
are social ways to be regulated and we
have not made sufficient progress in
Christianity to reach the plane our
Lord designed we should do to bring
the kingdom of heaven at hand. AS long
as there is an ideal life to be lived the
Christian should struggle to live it-live
it without hatred, without bloodshed.
without the sword, and in universal
brotherhood of mankind; live with. the
idea of a common destiny for man on
this earth. Love thy neighbor as thy
self and the kingdom of heaven shall be

persistent hallowing of the common
place. This is the glory of the Christed
man, the glory of an incarnation, the
glory of walking with the Infinite In the
humbleness of our dusty streets and
obscure homes, the glory of seeing Coo
in the pettiness of life. Nothing human
is common or unclean any more; since
Jesus lived the life of God into the things
of our lowly Humanity Out of the lit
tleness of life the Carpenter hath build
ed a temple of the Infinite.

The pressure from this source in the abb

slight reactionary tendency of the for

market, but with the exception Of Ball-

which continued weak and lower under

TO their financial condition, the losses
were only fractional and but temporary.
The pressure started up again ON renew

SUGAR SPECULATION.
RESOLUTION UNA
VORABLY REPORTED.
The Senate Committee Takes a
Strong Position Against Order
ing an Investigation.

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Jones of Nevada, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Contingent Expenses, to-day
submitted the report of that committee
on the resolution introduced by Tillman
for an investigation of the charges of
sreculating in sugar stocks, etc.
The report takes strong position
against ordering the investigation and is
an exhaustive review of the procedure
of the Senate in the past in such mat
tiers.
The report takes the position that
aside from the names of the newspaper
men themselves only the name of Sena-
tor Smith of New Jersey is mentioned in
the newspapers making the charges on
which the resolution was based. The po-
sition is taken that the newspaper men
do not count, "inasmuch as those gen
tlemen do not profess to write from
knowledge, and usually, if not always,
decline to disclose the sources of their
information"
With reference to Senator Smith the
report says:
Here is a newspaper charge made
against a Senator of the United States
without any averment of personal know
ledge on the part of he writer, and wi h
out the slightest particle of evidence to
sustain it-not even as much as would
warrant a Justice of the Peace in sum-
nloning witnesses to determine the truth
of complaint by one citizen against
another with reference to the most
trif1ing incident of every day life. 1t is
the bold and naked assertion of a man
who does not profess or pretend to have
any knowledge whatever of the alleged
fact of which he writes. On the other
hand, we have a definite, explicit and
absolute denial of the charge from the
Senator Affected denial publicly made
from his place in the Senate upon the
responsibility of his position as a Sena-
tor of the United States
AS to the clause of the resolution
which claims that the brokers in New
York knew in advance what the COM
mittee would report in regard to the
schedule on sugar, the committee report
that they can find nothing in the clip
pings from the newspapers presented in
support of the proposed inquiry, moth
ing but indefinite illusions, insinuations.
guesses and differences drawn by cor
respondents from hearsay statements,
and the hearsay sometimes several de-
grees removed. Many of their ex-
pressions indicate the flimsiness of the
foundation on which they have erected
this structure of scandal
The attack of one of the correspond
ents is characterized as a deliberate,
unfair and envenomed determination to,
if possible, bring upon the sub-commit-
tee of the Finance Committee, the con-
tempt of the country"

and Rutland marched to Roanoke this
morning, arriving there about 4:30
clock. Their coming was learned in
advance and none of the miners went
to work. After the meeting the visit
ing miners got away.
EVERY PIT CLOSED.
ST. LOUIS, July 2.-One thousand
miners at Bellview decided to join the
strike for better wages. No coal will be
dug even for local use.
The men stopped work in every pit
this morning at the reqeust of the visit
ing delegation of strikers, and attended
the mass meeting which convened at
1920 a. m.
After some talk a motion was made to
suspend work, and there was not a neg
alive vote recorded. committee of
twelve was appointed to draw up O.
scale and formulate demands.
The men here will demand at the pit
TOP gross weight and a uniform price
per ton-probably % cents.
RATCHFORD AT FAIRMONT.
WHEELING CIV. Va. July 22.-The
arrival of President Ratchford at Fair
mont is the event of the day in West
Virginia. 1t is not likely that Ratch-
ford will be able to do any thing which
Debs could not do.
Debs, Ratchford and the other organ
izers held a conference to-day at Fair
mont to devise plans for future work.
They gave commissions to all the strik-
ers as missionaries to work from man
to man among the miners in their
homes
The great trouble has been to get
them out to big meetings on account of
surveillance of the operators.
All the soft coal miners did not go
out in Kanawha to-day, as was prom
side, but most of them did. They ask
for an increase in pay.
AN EASY MARKET.
CLEVELAND, July 22-The failure
of the miners to make any Roadway in
West Virginia has had the effect of
causing a much easier feeling in the
local market. Local operators to-day
regard the strike as more complicated
than ever and long ways from a settle
ment.
