IN LABOR7S
usuasuunE ! !. ID

The action of the city council in amend
Ing and passing the resolution affecting
the employment of union labor on all city
work is a topic now being vigorously dis
eussed by the members of various unions
of organized labor. The original resolu-
ton, introduced by Aid. Bantz, provided
that all stone work for city purposes
should be cut by union labor. A COM
mittee of the assembly amended this to
include al city work with the proviso
"as far as practicable" Some of the
trades union people contend that this
added clause is string by which such
work can be manipulated to suit the
wishes of the board of public works. They
are afraid that the proviso will operate
against the unions, as providing a loop
hole through the means of which the in
tent of the resolution can be easily
eVaded. Others are more conservative.
They say that If honestly administered
the prOviso can work no injury to or
ganized labor. They say, also, that there
are some kinds of work, such as certain
lines of decorating, sculpture, etc, that
might, necessarily, have to be taken out
of the hands of union men. In this
event the council would be considerably
handicapped if the strict letter of the
ordinance were eXacted, and the matter
carried into the courts by the unions.
a majority of union members say
that all they desire is fairness, and that
If the board of public works honestly and
fairly carries out the provisions of the
resolution it is all they can reasonably
ask. The action of the assembly in In

the stone cutters were mentioned in the

Mrs. Catherine FeIIman, Aged Sew
enty-TwO, Victim of Heart Failure.
When the young foster daughter of
Mrs. Catherine Fellman, living at 1858
East Third street. returned home at 9
o'clock. yesterday morning after spend
ing a night with friends, she found Mrs
Fellman lying IN the kitchen dead. Mrs
Fellman's body rested partly against the
door as though she had been endeavoring
to get out when death seized her. Dep
uty Coroner Ball investigated the case
and decided that Mrs. Fellman died from
natural causes, probably heart disease.
Mrs. Fellman was seventy-two years of
age. Her husband is absent in the coun-
try working on farm. She occupied
the lower part of the house with her fos-
ter daughter. The girl was away Mon
day night, leaving the old lady alone.
Mrs. Fellman was last seen alive by
neighbors who talked with her about II
o'clock. She seemed in her usual health
and did not complain Of any discomfort.
People living rrext+door saw light NOV
Ing about in Mrs fFellman's house at 3
O clock in the morning, so her death re-
suited after that hour. 1t is supposed
that she felt the attack of heart trouble
coming on andItried to get into the out
side air when she fell dead. Mrs. Fellman
was subject to heart trouble, and had for
same time been under the care of DR..
