Women Are Worried.

Chicago, June 20.-A special to the
Times Herald from Omaha. Neb.. saws:
Female employees in the large mercantile
esta blishments and factories in Omaha
are in condition of unrest. They don't
know whether they will hold their posi-
tions after July 1 and if they are dis
charged they don't know whether they
can find another place in which to work.
what is true of the women workers of
Omaha is true of other large cities in the
state. This condition of unrest is due to
the law regulating the employment Of
, women, passed at the last session of the
legislature and which becomes operative
July !. 1t is estimated that 25 per cent
of the women employed in stores and fac
tories throughout the state will be dis
missed and their places filled by men.
The provision OF the law are sweeping.
1t regulates and limits the hours of en-
ployment of females in manufacturing.
mechanical and mercantile establish
ments, hotels and restaurants. Every
employer is compelled to provide suita BILE
seats for the female employees and per-
mt the women TO use them. 1t fixes
penalty Of $50 for every infraction and
makes 1t the duty of the deputy labor
commissioner to see that the law is prom
erly enforced. The measure was urged by
the Confederated Womens clubs and by
labor leaders in the larger cities The In
dustrial committee of Women's clubs has
taken great interest in the law declaring
that since Omaha has passed beyond the
village stage of existence, it should no
longer be necessary for retail stores tn
maintain such long working days. The
committee has made a canvass among
the merchants, urging that working
hours of ahnl1Id ho chn
consonance with the provisions of the
new statute. Through the committees;
efforts the women employed in MANY
Omaha stores will be permitted to begin
work about 10 O'Clock Saturdays in order
that they remain late in the evening Of
that day, without laying their employers
liable to fine.
The proprietor Of one of the largest de-
partment stores in the city said that he
did not think the law would cause the dis
missal Of very large number of women
in his establishment for the present at
least His firm will obey the law strictly
and if its observance shall suggest eco
nomy in the wedding out process, that
matter would be taken up later. The law
will work great revolution in the con.
duct OF hotels. restaurants and small
shops, where women are expected to work
from day light to dark. Proprietors OF
these places are opposed to it's enforce
ment and are talking of going into the
courts to test its consti.utionality.
'You can rest assured the law will be
enforced" said Bert Buch, local labor
leader. "Organized labor supported the
bill before the legislature and is in full
sympathy with its provisions. The dep
uty state labor commissioner can be de-
pended upon to enforce it rigidly."
In Lincoln the big storekeepers are rs
much perturbed over the enforcement OF
the law az are the merchants Of Omaha.

May Delay Construction.

New York, June 20.-A special to the
Times from Washington says the naval
appropriation bill, passed about the close
OF the session Of congress and signed on
March 3rd, provided for six protected
cruisers, that Were to cost, without arma>
ment, not more than $1,145,000 each.
There has been much controversy about
the designs of the cruisers, and at last
the department. reached the conclusion
that for the money allowed it would be
possible to build ships Of about 5000 tons
instead of $500, as contemplated by the
bill. 1t was only very recently that the
construction board agreed upon the gen.
eral features of the new ships, and now
the chief constructor is about ready to
show the designs. Just as the depart
ment was prepared to advertise for bids
for the construction of the vessels, how
ever. condition has confronted it that
NAV defer construction until congress
has again met. If it had been possible
to advertise at once for bids for con-
struction there is no doubt that the ex-
pectation of the department would have
been realized. Within few weeks, un-
fortunately for the government, the
prices Of iron and steel have greatly in
