THE Z. OF I. CONTROVERSY.
Each Faction Watching the Other, but
Neither Makes Move.

Each Faction Watching the Other, but
Neither Makes Move.
As yet the Burns faction OF the Knights
Of Labor has made no further effort to OBJ
tain possession Of the headquarters Of the
order. The faction is represented by
Messrs. Burns. Fernau. Hicks, Canning
and O'Meara. the gentlemen arrested sew
erai weeks ago on a warrant sworn out by
Mr.. John W.. Hayes. charging forcible en-
try. and who were subsequently acquitted
in the Police Court.
Each faction is Watching every move the
other makes. 1t is said. The building at 43
street has been practically abandoned, as
Mr.. Hayes ds conducting the more impor-
tant matters in his charge from quarters
which he recently engaged at 222 North
Capitol street. 1t Is admitted at MIR. Hayes
office that only the most important business
is being looked after at present, and this
state of affairs will continue until the trou-
BILE is finally adjusted.
The Burns faction has Waterman on
guard outside of the headquarters building
at all hours OF the day and night, with in
structfons to gain an entrance when posi-
BILE without forcible means. The Hayes
faction is equally vigilant, and at all times
peering out OF one of the second story Win
dows. The windows on the first floor Of the
building are all closed tightly and some
are nailed.
In speaking Of the trouble, Mr.. Thomas H.
Canning, the general secretary of the Burns
faction, said: >
The outcome of this will be seen in
March, anyhow, If we do not obtain posses
sion of the building before then. There is
q mortgage on the property at 43 B street
for $l3,5Uu. This is held in Mr. Burns
name, and it falls due In March. Things
will happen then. g.
1--WE have opened offices in the Bliss
building and are going on with the work
Just as II Mr.. Hayes and his faction did not
exist. We are surerto obtain possession Of
the B street headquarters eventually"

PUBLIC BUILDING IN TORONTO.
Varied Uses to Which It Has Been Put
in Seventy Years.

from the toronto Globe.
A farewell tour Of inspection of the old
parliament buildings, now in process of
demolition, was paid by the Canadian Club
on Saturday afternoon, under the guidance
OF Mr. Frank Weigh, After the many old
rooms. corridors and guard cells had been
explored, the pilgrims assembled In the one
time legislative chamber, where Mr. Weigh,
in a very interesting address, recapitulated
briefly the history OF the old buildings and
narrated many Of the stirring incidents
which had taken place there and which
were intimately connected with the struggle
for responsible government in this country
He told Of the first parliament BUILDING In
Toronto, a small Log building erected on
Berkeley street In 1905. At that time six
months notice was required to the town to
provide board and lodging for the twenty
members. Another building was rendered
necessary after the unfortunate visit Of the
American forces in 1913, when they applied
the torch freely in Muddy York.
The premises In which the visitors stood
was the third parliament house for Toronto
and was first occupied in 1882, being until
1S41 the home of the legislature Of Upper
Canada In 1889 it was the court house In
1S46 Kings College and Medical School in
1889 an asylum for the insane, from lS49
to 1851 the parliament house for the prov
ince of Canada, from 1853 to 1885 it was
Toronto University. from 1881 to 1867 mill
tary barracks. and from 1867 to 1892 It was
occupied by the legislature OF the province
Of Ontario.

a direct invitation to thievery. Persona

a direct invitation to thievery. Personally
no woman would acknowledge It: and yet
there are few women that do not habituaily
practice carrying the pocket book IN the
hand or carrying money In a bag swung by
a slender chain. either from their fingers
or belt This fashion has obtained for
months, and not a week passes that the
police station does not record the snatching
of pocket books and bags from women by
men that are seldom apprehended. The
darkness comes early these days ana Is
sure to overtake the shopper. In the shad-
ow Of the alley turks the thief who PUSHES
out, grabs the bag and before the victim
has time to realize what has happened ne
IL gone. Often he follows her along the
street until he comes to the cover OF an
alley, then makes his attempt and escapes.
Now that the Christmas buying Is at
hand and the shops and streets are
thronged with men, women and children, 1t
viii be well for the persons that generally
carry their money In their hands to change
their habit The shopper that goes from
home after the luncheon hour rarely re-
turns until dusk. and It is then the pure
snatcher gets In his work. Since pockets
have gone out Of fashion and the carrying
OF bag or purse Is dangerous, the women
OF today should find some other place for
their money.
