GOMPERS ADVISES M'KINLEY.
At the Latter's Request lie l'oiuts
Ont Needed Legislation.

AT the I0tter'S Request lie Ioiuts
Ont Needed Legislation.
Washington. Nov 26. - President
Samuel Gompers. of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor. has addressed let
ter to President Mckinley. at the re-
quest OF the latter. conSaining sugges-
tions as to legislation Sl the interest
OF labor which he believes the president
ought to discuss in his Forthcoming
annual message to congress.
Concerning the eight hour day for
all government employees. Mr. Gompers
proposes that law be passed provid-
ing for the establishment of the eight
hour day on all work done by or for the
government. whether that work be done
by contractors or sub-contractors. He
expresses the opinion that the govern
ment might with profit and advantage,
become direct employer of labor
where 1t is practicable. the government
suffering the loss which such inter-
vention between the work and contrac-
tors implies.
Mr.. Gompers points out some of the
evils of competition between the pro-
duct of free labor and that Of convict
Labor Legislation by the several states
on this subject have proved Intellectual,
as it has been held that a state cannot
prohibit the importation within its bor-
ders of the product of another state.
Mr.. Gompers suggests that the power
OF congress be invoked to regulate
such commerce between the states
In the interest Of laboring men Of the
country Mr.. Gompers proposes further
to restrict immigration into the United
States. He also urges that the "wea-
pom Of judicial injunction" restraining
workmen from doing certain things.
within the lawful limit of their rights"
be curtailed as to Its use. On this point
MIR. Gompers dwcls at length. quoting
from the opinion Of eminent jurists in
support of his argument.

COL PlCQUART'S PERIL.
Ho May Be "Railroaded" as Was
Captain Dreyfus. .
THE DREYFUSITES INDIGNANT.

They Fear That PlcGuart May BE Con.
demned on Some Technically For
His Courageous Desire to Render
Justice to the DEVILS Island Prisoner
Paris, Nov. 26.-The Picquart case
seems in the way Of raising even a
greater storm than the Dreyfus affair.
The papers favorable to the general
staff are dumb in the face OF the bare
faced decision of the military governor
OF Paris, General Zurlinden, to try
Colonel Picquart by court martial,
while those favoring revision are fu-
rious at this new attempt to defeat
justice and protest against the court
martial being ordered.
Nobody believes that Colonel Pic
quart is guilty of any crime except a
courageous desire to render justice to
Dreyfus, but on all sides 1t is recog-
nized that. In practically secret trial,
he may be condemned on some tech
nicality, thus attaining the apparent
object, which is to throw doubt upon
his dispositions before the court of cas-
sation in the Dreyfus trial.
Every one is asking the motive OF
General Zurlinden in so persistently
pursuing Colonel Picquart and why a
court martial, If necessary, could not
be postponed until the decision of the
court Of cessation has been given.
Everyone is asking whether it is des-
perata attempt to shield the former
minister of war, General Mercer, and
the general staff, even at the risk Of
preqipitating disaster and the nations
hatL Led and In any event of driving
every doubling person into the Drey-
fusite party.
A protest against the court martial
Of Picquart, bearing the signatures of
leading authors. politicians and jour-
nalists, is being widely circulated for
further names. and will be presented to
the government.
1t is reported that NJ. De Freycinet,
minister for war, has consented to be
interpellated on the subject in the
chamber of deputies next Monday.
when a sensational scene may be ex-
pected.
Another feature of the case is the
torrent of hostile criticism now poured
upon M. De Freycinet, who is accused
VI utHeTdl
and the general staff.
Maitre Labori. Colonel Picquart's
counsel, says he Is convinced it will
be impossible to condemn Picquart on
the charge Of forgery. but that the ac-
cused officer may possibly be condemn.
ed on the charge Of communicating Sc
cret documents. although their com.
munication was in no way inimical to
the interests Of the state.
Colonel Picquart continued his evi-
dence before the court of cessation
throughout the whole day. and his de-
position Is expected to occupy several
days more. There Is still some hope
that he may receive Justice, owing to
the presence on the court martial of
Colonel Bonnel, who Is great friend
of Picquart. but M. Clemencau, in Au-
rore, declares that the court martial
is packed, and accuses NJ. De Freyci-
net of allowing an innocent man to ba
in order to increase his own
chances. at the next presidential elec-
tion.
