Building Operations Brought to

In Connection With Mississip-
PTS New State House.
COLOR LINE DRAWN.
Union LabOrers Refuse to Work
With Black Men.
But Two of Them We're Em-
plOyed on the Job.

Chicago. April 1S.-The Tribune says:
Bricklayers from Chicago and other
northern cities have tied up building op-
erations on the new state house at Jack
son, Miss, by striking because of the
presence of negro briclSlayers on the
work. Advices of the trouble were re-
ceived by Chicago labor leaders last
night
There were but two negroes on the job,
and they are said to be non-union men,
while the northern men are union. bur
the trouble. it is said, is due not so much
to union ideas as to the color line. The
northern men demand that the negroes
be discharged, and when the foreman
refused to let them go the white men
quit work.
Chicago labor leaders are at a loss
to understand why the bricklayers
should have based their refusal to work
on the color line, as the bricklayers'
union does not draw the line against the
admission of negroes. They call atten-
ton to the fact that at the last annual
convention OF the international Brick
layers and StOnemasons' union held at
Milwaukee, there were two colOred del
egates present. There are many negroes
in the Hodearriers' and Building Labor
erS' union. and the secretary Of the local
Granite Cutters union is colored man.
The American Federation Of Labor pro-
hibits unions affiliated with it from
drawing the color line, and less than a
year ago the Chicago Federation Of
Labor went on record as appealing to
the negroes to join unions

he wanted $500 in connection with a
marriage, that he had insured his life
for G50000 and that he was making a

JURY IS CHARGED.
Argument Begins in the Case of Capt.
Garnett Ripley.

Frankfort. KY, April 1S.-Judge Can
tril this morning delivered his instruc-
tions to the jury in the case of Capt.
Garnett Ripley charged with being con-
nected with the Goerel assassination
and argument of the case was begun.
The instructions are practically the
same as those given in the case Of Caleb
Powers
He first holds that tho defendant must
be found guilty of the charge that Rip
ley conspired with Taylor and others TO
procure GoebePs death as alleged, has
been proved to the satisfaction of the
jury. The second says that if the jury
believes from the evidence to the exclu-
sion of a reasonable doubt that the de-
fendant and others conspired to commit
an unlawful act and that in consequence
of that act Goebel was murdered he is
still guilty of murder, though the killing
of Goebel might not have been the orig
inal object of the unlawful conspiracy
The other instructions relate to the
credibility of co-conspjrators as wit
nesses and to other minor points. The
court also adds a fourth instruction
which was that before the defendant can
be convicted the jury must believe be-
yond all doubt that the defendant en-
tered into conspiracy prior to January
so to procure and bring about GoebeRs
death
Judge P w Major made the first
speech for the defense He said Goebal
was as foulIy murdered as any human
being ever was. but he believed with an
unalterable opinion that the defendant
was innocent of any part in the conspir-
acy. for he had only a passing acqualnt-
even know any OF the other alleged con-
Spira tors.
