The Stage Hands Version.
of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1 desire, on behalf of the local branch of
the Theatrical Stage Employees Union, to
call attention to a statement made in an
editorial in The Star on Monday, the 18th
instant, and to request that, in justice to
the union, you give publicity to a statement
of the stage employees position. The edi-
torial says, in referring to the strike in
some of the local theaters, that mo notice
was given of the intention of the men to
leave the theaters and no grievances had
been formulated"
1t is a fact that some time prior to the
opening of the present theatrical season in
the local playhouses, a scale of union wages
and pay for extra work was submitted to
the theatrical managers, and with one pos
sible exception, accepted by Them many of
the men submitting to reduction in pay in
conformity with the union scale ruling
on the part of Manager Rapley of the Ma
tional Theater that Sunday does not begin
until 1 o'clock after midnight on Saturday
night, while the union holds the old-fash-
Toned view that Sunday begins directly af
ter the stroke of twelve Saturday night,
forced crisis, and the union men were
virtually discharged from the National
without moments warning. Manager
Rapley then called the local Theatrical
Managers Association to his aid and had
them agree to blacklist the men discharged
from the National and also to fortify him
in the position he had assumed antagonistlc
to the union. The issue, as made by the
managers, was non-recognition of the union.
There were conferences and concessions
on the part of the union, but a persistent
refusal on the part of the Managers Asso
citation to even pursue the same policy fol-
lowed hitherto this season led to the plain
ly foreseen result-namely, that the union
men could not continue at work and remain
loyal to their union. The managers were
well aware of this and told .he men they
were prepared for strike.
The issue in the local strike is identical
with that in the coal strike, in that the po-
sition of the local theatrical managers is
the same as that assumed by Mr.. Baer of
the coal operators, that capital has the
divine right" to organize for it's own pro-
lection, but that the laborer must not dare
fly in the face of Providence by organizing
with his fellow for mutual protection.

The Alaska Salmon Season.

The Secretary of the Treasury gave a
brief hearing to parties in interest upon
the question of closing the salmon fishing
season in southeastern Alaska until about
July / In each year. Agents of the gov
eminent have heretofore reported that at
the rate of killing salmon for canning pur-
poses now in progress. especially in the
opening season. there were grave dangers
of depicting the supply, and recommend
that during the opening season, which ex-
tends into July. the streams should be kept
clear of all distinctions. After the hear
ing the Secretary announced that the mat
ter would be held in allegiance for some
time in order to allow other parties inter-
ested to be heard. Some of the largest can
neries in Alaska favor the proposition and
others object to 1t. A decision will not
likely be reached for some time.

Washington, March 6.-The Span

handed down a decision adverse to
the claimants on account of death
and injury received on the battle
ship Maine, blown up in Havana

The commission holds that "indi-

"A seaman injured by the explo-
sion which destroyed tie battfesffp-

no individual claim against Spain.

sible to the United States for the ex-

Claims so far filed with the com

ion been favorable to the claimants

representative of The News last
night. and they both expressed them
selves very much gratifed with the
outlook. Since their arrival in the
city they have been shown over the
city and they are both of the opinion
that an electric car line would not
only be a great benefit to Brunswick
but would be paying investment as
we'll. They both seem anxious to
locate here, and are hoping that
council win see fit to grant them the
franchise. which they will ask for to-
night
The gentlemen are here for bus
mess and when asked by the report
er il council granted the franchise
how long before they would begin
work, Mr. Treadwel said.
Just as soon as practicable. We
will return to New York Saturday
and are anxious to make definite ar
rangenent before our departure.
1t is not the plan of the gentlemen
to have only an electric car line.
but also electric lights and electric
power of all kinds
1t is understood that the petition
to be presented to council this af-
ternoon will ask for a dfty-year fran
chise with other requests as to
streets etc.
1t is to be hoped that the council
wnl grant the franchise, if, Of
course, it is reasonable. An electric
car line would be OF great benefit to
our citizens and would be another
move in the direction Of progress.
Let every member of council be
present this afternoon ana investi-
gate the matter fully and give the
gentlemen some definite answer.
