ANXIOUS TO TESTIFY.
Labor Leaders Ready to Appear Be
fore the Grand Jury.

Chicago, May 1-Beginning ton1or-
row the grand jury will begin an ex-
haustive investigation of the labor
troubles now prevailing in this city.
Late last night It was learned that the
subpoenas issued by the grand jury
yesterday We're for the following con-
tractors to appear and testify tonnor-
row: VIM O'Brien, president of the
Building Contractors council; W. F.
Behel, member of the executive board
of the Building Contractors council;
Victoria F. Falkenau, chairman press
committee of the Building Contractors
council; John Angus, president of the
Angus & Gindele company, contractors;
B. II. LIGHTER, contractor.
AS explained by Assistant States At
torney Sprongle, who has charge Of
TIL grand jury it is not the desire of
the jury to indict the actual combat
ants so much as it is the desire to reach
the leaders who have melted the lesser
members to riotous acts.
The leading union men are expecting
to be summoned at any time, and pro-
TESS to be anxious for an opportunity
to tell their side of the story. John
Long, chairman of the board of bust
ness agents, says that union labor is
ready to answer all questions concern
ing the system of picketing, and also
IS ready to throw some light on other
phases of the trouble

STRIKE FOR 8 HOURS.
Three Thousand Mechanics Go
Out in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, May 1.-The struggle for
an S-hour work day, which has been I'M
der consideration by the labor unions of
this city began in earnest today when,
according to Secretary Joseph B. Allen,
of the Allied Building Trades Council,
Workmen representing every branch OF
the building trades went on strike to
enforce their demands. Nearly 5000 men
are reported to have quit work and this
is but a small representation of the total
membership of the allied building trades
council. The fact that so few workmen
were compelled to strike is considered by
the unions as favorable to their cause.
Early today representatives of the
workmen were securing the city and up
to the present time, Secretary Allen re-
ports the signing of many agreements
with employers.
At the headquarters of the Brotherhood
Of Carpenters and joiners, it was stated
that nine-tenths of their members were
at work and that signed agreements were
constantly coming in from the master
builders. The carpenters ask 80 cents an
hour for a working day of hours.
The entire police force has been ordered
on duty in anticipation of possible trouble.
but there have been no disturbances as
yet.
ST PAUL PLUMBERS OUT.
St Paul. Mimi, May All the union
plumbers in this city struck today in sup
port of a demand for shorter hours and
an increase in wages.

Delegates to Nebraska Republic
an Convention Untrammeled.

Lincoln, Neb, May lat o'clock
tomorrow afternoon the Republican
state convention will be called to order
at the Auditorium in this city.
Not for ten years past has the selec-
ton of the Republican ticket and the
delegates at large from Nebraska to the
national convention excited so much
interest. During the past few days
greater assurance has been expressed
than for a long time by Republican
leaders that the state can be returned
to the Republican column in the fall
elections.
A full state ticket is to be selected
1t is generally conceded that Charles
H Dietrich, of Hastings, will be nomi-
mated for governor
G. NJ. Lambertson of this city is a
candidate. OF the ,311 delegates to the
convention, practically none have been
instructed, so that sentiment is the only
possible gauge of the situation. Four
delegates at large to the Philadelphia
convention are to be chosen. Two of
these probably will be Col. John NJ.
McClay and John A. Ehrhardt of Stan
ton The only names mentioned for
the remaining two delegates to the ma
tional convention are United States
Senator Thurston and Edward Rose
water, both of Omaha. A bitter fight
has been carried on against Senator
! Thurston's selection as a delegate at
large. 1t has been repeatedly stated
that both ThurSton and RoSeWater will
be selected, thus ending the fractional
fight, but such action is hardly prob
able and a session of warm speech
making is anticipated when the selec-
ton of delegates to the Philadelphia
convention is taken up. Senator Thur
ston and Mr.. Rosewater both arrived
last evening.
In the matter Of platform, it is al
together likely that resolutions will be
/ adopted quite similar to those recently
passed by the conventions of Ohio and
! Indiana, including to a certainty the
plank on the trust question" No tenn
porary organization has yet been agreed
/ upon, several members of the state
! central committee having strenuously
! objected to the usual mode of procedure
