The Padrone's Shanty
For T4aborers is
No Myth.
TERRIBLE PLACE FOR MEN TO LIVE
Tate Not Talking Much
About Investigation of
Labor at Reservoir.

Clinton, July 12.-Thomas Dawson
Tate is refusing to talk much about his
investigation into the conditions under
which labor is employed on the met
ropolitan reservoir.
He believes. that it is his duty to first
report the result of MS work to the
Clinton Business Mems association.
A representative of The Spy learned
today, however, that evidence which
would seem to be conclusive, has been
discovered of the relations of one OF
the contractors to his padrone This
contractor, it would seem, has a CON
tract with p padrone that tho latter
Shall furnish all the men the contrac-
tor may need to perform the work upon
which he is engaged
Under this contract the padrona biree
laborers, mostly Italians. In return for
his trouble. he receives the sole right
to board and lodge them. He hires the
men and may discharge them The
condition of employment is that the la
borers shall board in the shanty Of the
padrone and buy his food of the ma
drone. If the laborer goes elsewhere
to sleep, or to buy his provisions, his
work on that Job ceases. The contrac-
tor will support the padrone in these
particulars.
The shanty kept by this padlonc is a
type of most of the shanties main
tained on the site of the reserv ir. 1t
is shell of pine boards, The men sleep
on board platforms, two on each side
of the shanty, one above the ether. The
platform is as wide as a bed IA long.
Thirty or more men can sleep on each
side. There is a diversity in the amount
of bedding. The laborers furnish their
own. Some have a mattress, a pillow
and two coverllds. Some have only
coverlids.
Outside the shanty are the cooking
! utensils. The men divide into groups.
Each group has a rough and ready
equipment of its own. The equipment
includes rough utensils for eatlag. an
extemporized fireplace, made usually
Of an old tin milk pail, and Il few
matches.
In the shanty which will be one Of
the subjects of Mr.. Tate's report, It Is
understood, is the shanty store main

towns when stories like this are told
them, Prove It." The phrase Is srnoth-

Thomas Dawson Tate says he's only

is interested in pushing the matter be-
cause the wrong wholesaler sells beer
to the contractors. These persons
found newspaper that was willing to
print the stuff Beer has nothing to do
with the case. All the shanty bosses
sell beer, or if there is an exception he

divided among the wholesalers. Not
one of them has a monopoly of it. This
beer selling is in fragrant violation of
the law. The police have been trying to
stop 1t, but they are unable to find the
necessary evidence so far. At any rate,
the beer has nothing to do with the
case.

The Financial Conditions.

New York. June 1.-THE Financier SAYS:
The bank statement for the week ending
June II is logical, if the fact that the
previous exhibit did not show the result
of current operations is taken into ac-
count. The loss of nearly seven millions
of cash. for instance. cannot be traced to
the business of the past week. especially
since the latter exports of gold figure in
totals only slightly. But as the former
weeks losses were not shown ar the
time. the AVERAGES are about correct
The difficulty in understanding the
weekly statement lies in the fact tHdt
the system of computation employed
tends TO minimize or eXaggerate real con-
d.tions. The feature Of the current staIe-
ment Is the remarkable expansion OF ST.
902. 600 in loans. a sum very much larger
than anticipated. There has been Ii IS
true, some revival in stock exchange &c
tivity. but not enough to warraa: vio-
lent increase. such as shown in the loan
account.
Probably a portion of the previous
weeks business has been carried into ;he
present statement. e'o..owing the eNpan-
sion of nearly eleven millions for the
