VOTES FOR EXCLUSION.
American Federation Would lar Chi.
ncsc - Defeats Motion to De.
nOunce Ticket ScnlpinE.

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 1.-The exclu-
sion of Cinnamon, japanese and other
Asiatics from American territory,
ticket scalping, legislation and advisa-
bility of adopting Il universal label for
union-made goods were the principal
questions that claimed the attention
of the delegates at Tuesdays two ses-
sions of the American Federation Of
Labor.
The resolutions advocating the ex-
clusion of the Chinese were adopted
by the convention with considerable
hurrah, but in the matter of cxclud-
ing natives of Japan and other Asiatic
lands snag was struck, and this part
of the anti-Mongolian agitation was
killed SO far rs the present convention
is concerned. The special committee
having charge of the exclusion matter
was unanimous in favorably reporting
the Chinese section of the resolution,
but was divided in regard to the Japan
csc. The Pacific coast delegates led
the discussion on Chinese exclusion,
but were divided when it came to eX-
Guiding other orientals. The burden
of the remarks of those opposed to the
Japanese resolution was that Chinese
immigration was the greater evil Of
the two, and that 10 insist upon some
restrictive law to prevent n Japanese
invasion may cndanger the passage by
congress of the Chinese act.
The ticket scalping debate was quite
a lively affair. The delegates repre-
senting the railway tclegraphers
opened the fight against the rcsolu-
ton, making The point that such action
was beyond the jurisdiction of the fed
Grafton. The typos" were helped
along in their arguments for the adop.
ton of the resolution by several social
istic members of the convention. A
socialist from Chicago said the rail
roads were "skinning the people, and
why not let the people skin the rail-
roads-it is skin game all around"
When the viva voce vote was taken
those in favor of permitting ticket
scalping won by an overwhelming ma
jority.
The agitation for universal label,
which has been carried on for a long
time, was again defeated. Those who
favored the idea fought valiantly, but
the delegates had made up their minds
on the question, and crushed the prop
osition when it came to a vote.

saying that they bought the plant
without incumbrance. The Old COM

not pay them. The county is deter

the pant for sale for taxes. They were
bought by prominent real estate

declares that he will have the plant
reverted back to the city by the court.
