Mr.. Grant reviewed the stand taken
by this firm and reviewed the history
OF the eight-hour law. He spoke at
Peck had first argued against granting
the painters requests and afterwards
granted them.
Mr.. Bardsley Magnus Osson, Oscar
Bender and Joseph Madden spoke in
same vein as that pursued by Mr.. Grant
and the sentiment seemed to be to- e2-
clude Il. W. Peck d Son from the as
citation.
Mr.. Madden then presented the fol-
lowing:

the attention of the members OF this
association that B. w. Peck & Son, in
direct contradiction TO the action of the

GRAVE UPHEAVAlS
nAY FOLLOW BOER WAR
Former Secretary of State Foster Says
Struggle is rIore rlomentous Than
Casual Observers Suppose.

New York, May 4.--Hon. John w.
has been following the military opera
tions i'm South Africa and making a
close study of them has given out the
following interview which appears in
toiay's Herald. Mr.. Foster said
1T is much TO be feared that England
is engaged in a protracted and in the
end an alarmngly costly, enterprise in
her armed contention with the Beers.
IL is to be anticipated that in the end,
through the weight of numbers and
superior resources England will win.
but that will by no means end the
struggle.
1T has been the history OF all such
struggles, and England has been no
exception, that the disturbance of COM
mercial relations and other questions,
more or less involved, very soon make
nations resive.
The influence OF the financial indus
trial and commercial interests often
compel governments to act from eco
nomical considerations. No one can
tell what Is going on at this very mo-
ment among the maritime and military
powers OF Europe. At any time there
might be n surprise, They surely can
not be looking on. simply as Indifferent
spectators OF a possible difficult inter-
national problem.
THE TRANSFORMATION of the largest
army England has ever had in a single
theatre OF warlil<e operations more than
half the distance between the two poles
Of the earth is In itself an expensive
undertaking and a very difficult one.
Supplies for the maintenance OF such
n large force In the field over six thou
sand niles away from home in a region
difficult OF access and with most in
adequate means OF transportation. is a
problem to occupy mature military
minds.
"Then there Is the element of waste
and destruction incident 10 an army in

the field and in action. AS a military
enterprise the end is evideauy not IN
sight. But even IL the isnting were
ended, there would be "A disconnected
people TO keep i'm subjecton which
would require an expensive military es-
tabishment.
The experience OF the war thus far
has very effectually established the
prestige of the Beers as fighters. They
may be able TO continue. III they do for
few months other developments are
not improbable. England, not perhaps,
exhausted, but embarrassed by pro-
tracted demands upon her fighting ma
terial in men and supplies anu muni-
tlons of war herv.army thousands of
miles away, might find IL difficult 90
head off foreign Interference by SUBJ
stantial methods.
They might not be in the nature OF
overt acts OF military aggression or
diplomatic inquiry. but such lining up
of forces as would be difficult to en-
gage. The navy OF England. IL is true.
is free to act, but what would become
of British commerce, and commerce
crippled, what would become of Brit
ish merchandise. which signifies indus
try and means of living? The time for
diplomatic settlement in the first stages
have passed. and IL is difficult to see
how II can come in now without great
loss OF prestige. The British govern
ment is naturally sensitive. Some de-
cisive action might open a way, but
that way is not now in sight
THE United States would be the
most natural informed airy. The lead
ing European nations have their
spheres in Africa. For that reason any
suggestions from that quarter would be
out OF the question, i'm fact have been
been warned against.
This war in such a remote quarter
Of the globe is a more momentous af-
fair than the casual observer supposes.
lt may result in some very grave up
heavals in the worlds conditions, as
we now have them.'
