NO RIGHT TO INTERFERE.
Unions Cannot FOrcibIy Come Between
n Man and His Employment.

CHICAGO, March 20.-Judge Jesse Hold
ON, in a decision rendered in a labor union
assault case growing out of a strike, up
man to work at any labor with which he is
satisfied.
The case was that of Albert Hill. of the
Lathers' Union. who was charged with
assaulting James Kelly, another member Of
the union, because of his refusal to stop
work on a building where a strike was in
progress. The defendants attorney pleaded
with the court that, inasmuch as his client
already had served some time in Jail and
had suffered as much as Kelly from the
fight, he should not be punished any more.
NO; the matter Is more serious than you
think returned Judge HoldOm. THE as
sault and battery is not so serious in itself.
but there is a great principle at stake-the
principle of the personal liberty guaranteed
us by the Constitution. When Kelly was at
work on a contract with which he was sat
isfied. the President of the United States
nor any official nor individual has a right
to interfere with him. True, Kelly was a
member of the union, as was Hill. He had
a right to be. and it was his duty to obey
the rules of the union.
when he refused, however. the union
had its redress in disciplining him and eX-
pelling him. 1t had no right to send a COM
mittee to interfere with him and assault
ciples of our liberty. We in America boast
a liberty unknown elsewhere. Let us not
make it license. In this instance the effect
of the assault was not on Kelly alone, but
upon the principles of our constitutional
rights"
The court then sentenced the man to five
days in the county Jail in addition to the
time already spent there.

CHILD TERRIBLY R N
Little Helen Patterson May Lose Her
Life as n Result.

Helen, the five-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Patterson. living at 1921
Hoyt avenue, was terribly and possibly IA
tally burned yesterday afternoon at State
and Prospect streets. Her clothes were
burned from her body and the flesh on her
arms. hands, chest and neck was burned
deeply.
The child and her brother had been sent
by their mother to a shoe shop with a pair
OF shoes to be repaired. While returning
the children saw a fire built in the street,
and the little girl suggested that they stop
and get warm, as she was quite cold. The
fire had been started by a colored man who
was cleaning out the basement of a store
building, and the refuse was mostly paper.
The girl leaned well over the fire, and while
doing so her dress caught fire. She tried to
lut il out with her hands. and soon her
screams attracted the attention of a num-
Der of people. a. G.. Francke grabbed a
blanket and ran out, throwing the blanket
around her and putting out the fire after
most of her clothes had been burned off.
She was carried into Kolling's drug store
and temporary treatment given until the
arrival of DR.. Storch. The physician said
he did not think the burns were fatal, al
though there was such a possibility. The
accident caused great excitement and soon
a large crowd surrounded the drug store.

arrived when these people can be trusted
TO any extent"

DUE TO TREASURER'S WORK.
No Temporary Loan Required Until
Next JuIy-Municipal Affairs.

City Controller Johnson was asked yester-
day how soon the city would have to bor-
row more money to meet current expenses
He said that owing to the careful work of
County Treasurer Koehne it will not be
necessary for the city 10 make another tenn
porary loan until July or August. He said
that one year ago at this time the treasurer
collected but a small part of the delinquent
taxes, and the city received on an average
OF $50 a day, while now the treasurer is
turning over to the city from $3.50 to $500 u
day as its share of the delinquent taxes
being collected. Treasurer Koehne has col
lected about $1,000 in delinquent taxes this
year, of which the city receives 40 per cent.
Mr.. Johnson said the methods employed by
Treasurer koehne to collect delinquent
taxes nave been very successful and are
c~ommendable, as those who have been COM
PEELED TO pay taxes that have been out
standing for years will now be regular tax
payers and the revenues will likewise be
increased.

ORGANIZING PANAY.
Judge Taft and His Assistants Warm-
ly Welcomed at IlOilO.

ILOILO, Panay, p. l., March 2O.-The
Philippine commission was welcomed on
it's arrival here by General Hughes and his
staff and a district government was duly
organized by the Federalists and a gather
ing of citizens. Iloilo province is prepared
for organization, and the other provinces,
it is believed, will be ready by the time the
commission returns from the south. Panay
is nearly pacifed. The commission formally
examined the conditions of Panay and to-
morrow the members will proceed TO Ne
gros, where they will remain three lays.
Judge Taft, president of the Philippines
commission; ID. c.. Worcester and Senior
De Tavera addressed the Federalists in
the theater here to-day. Judge Taft de-
clared that the strongest evidence that
peace is at hand was the fact that the Fill
pino people, including those of Panay,
want peace. Every American believes that
the PHILIPPINE people must have all the civil
liberty that the Constitution affords. If the
commission failed to represent that prin-
ciple ii would be withdrawn by universal
demand. Americans and Fflipinos will real
ize that all sovereignty implies is liberty
and prosperity when the civil government
has established it's authority. Enthusiastic
addresses were made by natives.
Negotiations are being made for the sur
render to the American authorities Of the
insurgent leader Fulton. in the interior Of
the island.
