EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN.
rhIs PerplSxInR Question Ia for tho COa-
Ing Federation at Labor Convention
20 Dlaouas--CaIra Observations.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. 1O.--A deep
and far reaching subject that will be
NO for discussion before the eighteenth
convention OF the American Federation
Of Labor, which opens in this city
Monday, will be the employment OF
women. Labor people recognize in
the Increased employment OF women
and girls In nearly all branches of Ia
Dor the reason for corresponding re-
ducton in wages as well as the scarci-
ty OF work for men.
H. d. Call, secretary and treasurer
OF the Butchers Workmep's union OF
Syracuse, N. Y, who is here, has made
extended investigation into the em-
ploymenU of women in factories, pack
lighthouses and large manufacturing
establishments and he has some point
ed deductions to make from his OBJ
servation. He said;
believe that the wholesale EMPLOY nent OF
girls aud women Is doing more 10 hurt the
cause OF working people than nearly anything
else, To say nothing OF the sociological side OF
this evil-and II is an evll-the employment
OF women is slowly and surely bringing labor
down to poor level Fifteen years ugo,H0 ono
ever heard OF q woman working IN pnciSing-
house,
Not long ago In an eastern city Twas called
upon to investigate o pacbing-house where u
large number OF girls were employed found
girls ranging from 10 10 90 years old working
about half knee doepi onal and slush clean
ing the paunches OF animals Dwant toask
any decent man In the world whut he thinks Of
such surroundings and environments M the
schooling place for girls that arctic be wives
and mothersY What IL TO be expected OF y
generation whose mothers live In such enwi-
ronmentsP
Take the factories many Of them are just Us
bad The average wages OF factory girls IN n
little over "a week They can't live on that
md II doesn't take prophet TO foretelll the res
suit The head Of one large factory which onD-
ploys hundreds Of girls made this excuse to
me: He said many Of tho girls could work nor
small wages because theyliVed with their pm
rents who were able TO help them Iproped to
him that half Of his girls were solely depend-
ent upon the wages thathe paid them Dproved
to him that they could not live on the wngea
and asked him how he thought they manage to
exist told him that grave responsibility
lay at his door and no admitted TINT ho' en-
poyed girls simply because they worRDd
cheaper than men,
Now the home is the bulwark OF this freq
country. Our government is founded on th0
home. II is In the nature OF things that women
should depend ON man. But when she IL forced

make u home he cannot take q wife, so thG
result is poverty, celibacy and degradation.

MORE SHIPS FOR DEWEY.
Uncle SANS Fleet at Manila VIII Soon Be
Augmented by several Gunboats--POl-
icy of the Navy Department.

Washington, Dec. IL. - Admiral
Dewey's feet will be strengthened
shortly by the addition of some service
able gunboats. The Bennington, now
at Honolulu, has been ordered to pro-
coed to Guam, in the Ladrone group,
and make a survey of the harbor with
view to the establishment there of
naval station. This done she
will join Admiral Dewey's feet. By
that time or before the Helena will
have arrived at Manila and the Con-
cord and Petrol, now cruising around
in Chinese waters, will have returned
and altogether the admiral will have
a sufficient force of small vessels under
his command to carry out the
presidents policy respecting the
Philippines and to bring into
submission any of the islanders VINO
may prove refractory, and to release
any Spanish prisoners held in contine-
ment by the insurgents. The navy
department is now convinced that it
will not be practicable to carry out a
project it entertained at one time
looking to the reduction of the United
States naval force on the Asiatic sta
ton, and has settled down to the con-
viction that the feet must rather be
considerably reinforced If the attempt
is to be made to maintain law and or
der in the /, 200 Philippine islands and
still afford proper protection to the
important interests of the United
States along the great Asiatic coast.
The combined naval forces of Great
Britain and the United States in these
waters will largely exceed those of
any other two nations in that quarter
of the world.
