FEWER HOURS FOR
ALL THE TOILERS

New York. May 31.--The American
Federation Of Labor has decided to start
a general movement affecting 10000, 900
men, women and children throughout the
country to win shorter workday.
President Samuel Gompers, of the
American Federation of Labor, has is
sued the following circular to all trades
unions in the United States:
every effort should be made to Sc
cure a reduction IN the hours of labor,
and in order tomake that movement eff
fective, to avoid the practice Of working
overtime.
Concentration of wealth is the order
Of the day, and proceeding at ratio
hitherto unparalleled. The lesson it
teaches is not only the necessity Of the
organization of the yet unorganizcd wage
workers, but the thorough unifcation Of
the already organized. Separation or di-
vision leads to rivalry and generally to
antagonsm and conflict.
ut should be our aim to not only
strictly adhere to union principles and
union practices. and at all times demand
union made and union labelled products,
but to create healthier and wider pub
lie sentiment on this line among all
classes OF people.
"Every central body ought to form at
once if not already formed. a building
trades section. in which the particular
trades interests OF the building trades
workers could be primarily decided.
This is to apply to sections of organiza-
ions having union labels, as well as other
sections having particular trade interests
akin to each other. These sections should
be under the jurisdiction and part Of the
central body.
apart from the general movement to
accomplish the shorter wOrk-day, the
machinists of the country are cspeci6c-
ally demanding the universal establish
ment of the nine-hour day. Any assist
ance rendered that organization for the
shorter work day will not only be Of
advantage to the workers in that trade,
but to all the wage workers of tho

| A prominent machiniSt yesterday re-
lated peculiar occurrence which took
place some time ago and which has much
bearing OH the Harlan & Hollingsworth
lCompany's present attitude toward the
machinists. Several years ago he said
the Harlan & Hollingsworth Company
received a large contract for mill work
in New York city. The contract amount
ed to about 100000. 1t was then non
union shop and on account of the strong
organization gof the Allied Building
Trades in that city the people would
not accept the work. The entire con-
tract was thrown back on the local COM
lpany.
In order to have the work accepted
William Thompson, foreman of the car
shops, sent for Mr.. Mcguire, president of
the Carpenters Union, to organize the
shop. 1t is alleged that the company just
at that time were so anxious to have the
men join the union that it paid all the
expenses for so doing. The work was
accepted. Soon after the work was ac-
ccpted the company is said to have lost
all interest in organization and are claim
ed to have been antagonistic toward
unions ever since.
SUPERINTENDENT CASKEY.
Superintendent Caskey's, of the Harlan
4 Hollingsworth Company stand against
the striking machinists is causing much
comment. A communication in regard
to to Mr.. Caskey's talk to the drill press
men was received at this Office yesterday.
The article was signed Artisan and was
as follows:
Il was quite surprised in reading over
your columns of Thursdays issue to find
that Mr.. Caskcy was not only supcrin-
tcndent of machinists at the Harlan &
HOllingswOrth Company's plant, but also
that he was quite an orator, and a man
of much ability. In his address to the
drill pressmen, on Tuesday last, he is
quoted as saying that it was nonsense for
them to make the move they did. |
suppose this remark was also intended
for the machinists that are now on
strike. .
"He is also credited with saying that
he would protect them if necessary, by
a police force, an officer for each man.
He also states that the shop would run
if the whole United States army had to
be called out. Truly he is man of
large brain. and his influence with Uncle
Sam must be great. Now I would ask
him if such remarks were not intended
to provoke riot; it seems so to me, for
there has not been one instance where
the machinists have given one particle
of trouble to any one. He takes great
credit on himself for having been in
eighteen strikes. would ask Mr.. Cas-
key to name publicly the eighteen strikes
he has been in. The citizens of Whining
ton would be more than pleased to hear
Of them,
