COLLECTING LABOR DATA.
Richard Beii Talks of 81 Nesv Anglo

Richard Beii Talks of New Anglo
Saxon Alliance.
. Richard Bell, General Secretary of the
Amalgamated Society CT Railway Servants
OF Great Britain, who has been in America
for a week or more collecting data as to
the methods OF managing railways in this
country. and who came TO Washington to
confer with President Gompers, of the
American Federation of Labor, has gone TO
Philadelphia 10 continue his investigations.
In speaking of his mission to America Mr.
Bell said:
"A bill was introduced into Parliament
looking TO the adoption of automatic
couplers, much after the system which la
Dor succeeded in introducing in this coun-
try. The bill was defeated, but a commit
tee was appointed 10 further investigate
the subject.
The railroads maintained that under the
new system in America the number of
casualties had not been diminished To
controvert this argument ! have come TO
America and from the superficial inves-
tigation thus far made ! am already con-
vinced OF the falsity of this statement.
The workingmen of England and
America are gradually getting upon a
more fraternal basis and / should not be
surprised to see a federation of both in the
not far distant future. In some regards
the American Federation OF Labor is ahead
Of our organizations. in the procuring of
labor legislation for instance. and In the
concentration of effort. rather than the
diffusion of it as resulting from the two
governing bodies now In Great Britain"

CASES TO BE PROSECUTED.
Some Important Business on the
Criminal Court Docket.

District Attorney Davis and his assist
ants are busy getting matters in shape to
clear up the busintss OF iiine Office before
the summer holidays. There are several
cases on the criminal docket which have
Deen hanging fire for a long time and an
effort will be made to dispose of these at
as early date as possible. One of the
important cases which have been upon
the docket for some time is that of Fran
els j. kiekho7fer formerly Disbursing
Officer of the State Department, who il
under indictment for embezzlement.
The case OF William X. Reed, which was
set for trial on Monday but was continued
at the request of counsel for the defence,
will be called on April 10. Reed is charged
with the murder of Elizabeth Logan, Sep
tember II last and has been in jail await
ing trial since. AS soon as the Reed case
is disposed of ii IS probable that George
W. Horton, who is charged with the mur-
der OF Mrs. Annie Nicholson in hrmory
Park in June last will be called next.
1t was stated yesterday that Charles
Goldberg, who pleaded guilty 10 the charge
of housebreakiug last December when ar
raigned, viii be called for sentence next
week. Goldberg. it viii be remembered,
was arrested on last Thanksgiving night
for the robbery of Topham's store and
also for robbing dry goods house in
Seventh Street. Part of the stolen prop
eriy. it is alleged, was found in his pos
session when he was apprehended as ne
was about TO leave the city for his fathers
home in North Carolina Goldberg's s
father and one Of his uncles were also ar
rested and charged with receiving stolen
goods and the matter is ROW awaiting in
vestigation by the grand jury.
Charles Goldberg, since he has been con-
fined in the District Jail, stated that he
was not the principal in the robberies of
which he is accused, but claims that he
was, as he now finds, only the tool of
others. He stated that the chief opera
tors Of the gang, who have deserted him,
are IN New York. and went SO far as to
give the names OF two or three of them
when he was on the witness stand testify
ing in behalf Of his brother, Isadore Cold
berg who was charged with the same
offence as he.
Goldberg has been taken from the Jail
to the District Attorneys Office and ex-
amined as to his connection with other
! robberies, but sufficient evidence could
not be obtained for the District authori-
ties 10 ask for the arrest OF anyone else.

SECRETARY ROOTS VIEWS.
He Thinks the Government for tho Philip
pines Must Cover the Individual
Needs of Each Is and

WASHINGTON. Sept. S.--The cabinet
meeting Friday was devoted almost
entirely to discussion of the local
governments which will be tablshed
in the Philippines on the cessation of
hotilities. Secretary Root has given
the matter much thought and his
views as expressed were re-
ceived with approval by all
of the members present. He pointed
out that system of government which
would be suited to the people of Luzon
would hardly do for some of the other
islands where the inhabitants were
far less advanced. A member of the
cabinet in speaking of the matter said
that Secretary Root displayed broad
craftsmanship and knowledge of the
social and economic conditions of the
islands
