TALES OF The TOILERS.
NEWS IN LABOR CIRCLES

ganizer of a new local union of car
penters. French-speaking carpenters
have taken more than ordinary interest
in the announcement of tomorrow s
meeting, and if half of the 400 eligible
to membership in the French-speaking
branch attend, Worcester will be in a
fair way to establish itself as a strong
hold of union carpenters.
The result of the national officers at
tempts to build up the local union will
have bearing on the local employers
of carpenters. Worcester men work
nine or ten hours per day at $3.50,
against New York carpenters working
eight hours per day at 81 per day. is
subject for much thought on the part
of trade unionists and contractors.
Worcester stands above any city of
equal size in the eastern states in the
value of contracts given local builders,
and the filling of these contracts means
the hiring of hundreds of carpenters,
yet the wages remain small in compar-
fson with those received in other cities
for work requiring less mechanical skill.
When the union has grown strong
enough, which it hopes to by Jan. l,
to demand an increase in wages, it will
probably be made,
There seems to be no denial by con
tractors of the statement that Worces-
ter carpenters are underpaid, but there
seems to be a question as to whether
it is the contractors duty to tell his
men that they are working too cheap
ly. When the local union assumes such
form as win make 1t representative of
more than majority OF the best work
men in the city, it seems nothing but
reasonable to predict that the desired
increase will be granted.

He Used Pretty Plain Talk to the
Union Carpenters.
The visit of the venerable leader of
the trade union movement, P. j. Nc
CURE, was notable event in the ca
reer of the local Carpenters and Join
ers' Union.
To the local labor unionists and the
public, there seemed no other cause for
his visit than an opportunity of boom
ing the local union a bit, and incidental
ly showing the kind of stuff the gen.
eral secretary Of the Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, and the first
vice president Of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, Is made Of
Mr.. Mcclure did not visit this city
solely for the purpose of displaying his
talents as an orator. There was a
deeper reason. The local union needs
all the help the national organization
can give it, and realization Of this
brought the gray-haired trade unionist
to this city. The officers of the local
union have worked zealously for its sue
cess, and so far as the union itself
is concerned, 1t has been a success in
every form of trade unionism, save ex-
pansion. There is no policy which la
Dor unionists favor more than that Of
expansion, not of territory, but of mem
bership.
The local union has a membership of
about 500, which forms more than a
fair-sized local union, but in the field
from which the union can draw mem
bers, there is still double that number
eligible to membership who are outside
the fold. In this city there is no la
Dor union which could cause a more
complete revolution of the city's build
ing industries.
In his speech in labor headquarters,
Secretary MCGUIRE referred to the car
penter as the chief factor in the build
ing trades, and he mentioned the fact
that bod carriers are much better paid
in many cities than expert carpenters
In Worcester. One of Mr. McGuire's
most noticeable traits is straightfor-
wardness, and in addressing the local
carpenters, he had no hesitation in
saying that the

Makers International union. At the

government in attempting to capture

De more exasperating than mention of
possible annexation. The Filfpinos can
make cigars at SO or 81 a week. and
consider themselves well paid. AmerI-
can cigar makers get five times as
much per week, or they do not get fair
wages. Competition with the residents
of the islands in which United States
troops are now fighting makes the cigar
maker shudder and it is no wonder
they vigorously oppose annexation of
the islands. 1t Is a case of patterninr

the cigar makers has not reached a
point where eKpansionists are having
any fear.

THEY MAY Be TRIED
FOR DISCRETION.
Several Hundred Soldiers Take French
Leave of the 43d Infantry, U. S. v, at
Fort Ethan Allen - Several Wor-
cester Boys Among Them.

Burlington, VT, Nov. 11.-Several
Worcester boys have put themselves
in such position that they stand a
fairly good chance of being tried by the
military court martial for desertion.
The officers of the Forty third regi-
ment infantry, United States volun-
teers, at Fort Ethan Allen, were very
much disturbed when the roll was
called this morning and it was learned
that a large part of the regiment had
deserted
The paymaster visited the fort yes
terday and the priyates each received
SIS. This was what they had been wait
ing for. AS soon as they obtained their
pay, several hundred of the men came
to Burlington. Those who intended to
desert visited clothing stores and
bought civilian clothes. They then went
down to- the wharf and to other places
where they would not attract atten-
ton and discarded their uniforms.
The blue coats, trousers and caps
were bundled up and thrown behind
lumber piles and into the lake. Fiji
teen of these uniforms were found this
morning behind the Central Vermont
depot. Aila Of the non~commissioned
officers in one company of the regi-
uent were gone. Some of them may
return in time to reJoin the regiment
before it leaves the fort tomorrow to
start for the Philippines, but It is prob
able that the number win be small.
1t is reported in Burlington, that $50
men have deserted, but the officers de-
clare that 5only 100 have skipped out.
The regiment will not wait to
RECAPTURE THE MISSING MEN,
but will begin the long voyage Monday
as though nothing unusual had hap
pened. No effort to capture the desert
ers has been made. Col Murray de-
clares the organization is better off
without these men, as they belonged
to the class that is not desirable in the
organization. The majority of the men
in the regiment have been restless for
two or three weeks and many deser-
tons have been threatened. but il WAS
