DAY COMMITTEE
THE OLD OFFICERS REELECTED BY
ACCLAMATION.
A Sum Of Money Voted TO the Fund
for a Labor Temple-Other
Discussions

The Labor day yesterday met
and reorganized to make preparation for
the celebration Of next Labor day. All the
old officers were reelected by acclamation
as follows: President. NJ. T. Butler. OF the
saw makers: vice president. Thad Gurley.
OF the carpenters; secretary. William
Ewald. of the cigar makers; treasurer, ].
NJ. Madden, of the plasterers.
The expected fight over the appropriation
Of $500 for the benefit Of the labor temple
fund Of Central Labor Union did not come
of. The constitution of the labor day COM
mittee provides that there must be slooO
in the treasury as a standing fund which
cannot be used for any purpose without a
revision of the constitution. This fund Is
kept TO insure against loss for Labor day
celebrations. The treasury contained &lS.55
over this standing fund and IL was given
TO the labor temple committee with little
opposition, although some members wanted
more definite regarding the pro-
posed movement.
A OF three. consisting OF r. L.
Croft, Thad. Gurley and John Koch, was
appointed 10 revise the constitution, as is
done each year, in order TO keep pace with
changing conditions. Ii is said that Central
Labor Union still has its eye on the funds
OF the committee and il may try 10 press an
amendment so that the standing fund may
be reduced In order To make more money
available for the labor temple movement.
However, any change of that sort will GER
tainly bring up the old fight and IL Is doubt
full If the standing fund can be reduced.
Some of the member of the are
in favor of increasing the standing fund,
so that the money cannot be touched until
there is an amount sufficient TO make a big
showing towards erecting a labor temple.
The committe was organized for the pur-
pose of giving Labor day celebrations and
raising money for the building OF a labor
home, and the latter has long been its am
bitiOn. Now that Central Labor Union has
taken the project out of the hands OF the
committee some OF the members feel dis
appointed and would like 10 devise
means TO give the committee greater honor
in the movement.
The labor temple committee will at once
apply the funds toward the erection OF the
cottage that is TO be rafied off to raise
money TO start a find for the building OF a
labor temple.
The Labor day committee at its meeting
one week from next Sunday will appoint
the various committees 10 make arrange
ments for Labor day celebration. and the
arrangements Will at once be begun TO give
a big demonstration.

written by David F. Morris, who says, in
substances:
There was friction between Governor
Gardener and army officers at the town Of
TiaOn. This place was an insurrectO head
quarters: some of the insurrecto leaders
conceived the idea of organizing the civil
government in that town. So they ar
ranged their plan. sent a delegation 10 see
Garuener at Lucena, succeeded in COM
pletely deceiving him and returned with
authority 10 go ahead. They organized a
civil government and put none but faithful
insurrectOs at the head Of it. OF course,
they ran things TO suit themselves. Their
principal business was the collection OF
taxes. There was a poll tax, a house tax,
a horse tax, a cariabo tax. a cattle tax. a
vehicle tax, a tax on the rice crop. a tax
on transfers of property, a tax on mar
rlages and deaths. Every man who came
over the bridge into town had 20 pay a
tax. All municipal officers and policemen
had to give up half their salaries. In all
gambling games a kitty was established,
the proceeds thereof going TO the general
fund.
"Tiaon was thus thoroughly Tammany-
lied. And most OF the proceeds were paid
over to the insurrecto treasurer, Mr.. Nor
rs says. General Malvar lived near there
for a time and took the swag. buying a
rice plantation for himself with a part of
it. This civil government gave information
10 the insurgents and transformation TO
the Americans.
Finally Captain Johnston, of the Fiji
teenth Cavalry. came along and broke up
this pretty little scheme. He caught the
smart leaders. He secured hundreds of
afidavits. The presidents and the padre
confessed. captured in town
exposed the whole scheme. Thirty of the
traitors were sent TO Jail, confined in a
stockade.
Governor Gardener did not like this.
and the manner in which Captain Johnston
broke up that little nina nest was

against the army for interfering with civil
government

men who, while they desire 10 protect their
own interests, are wise enough to see the
drift of things.
The peculiar situation of the anthracite
mining industry" continued the senator,
makes the proposition most difficult. The
combination OF the railroad and mining IN
terests brings forward the question of ton
mage, and this and threatened competition
from the enormous production of bitumi-
nous coal, constitute matters which must
be considered. This is the foundation of
the operators argument. Ii is not a more
selfish interest that impels them 10 the
stand they have taken, but the proposition
is difficult TO explain to the rank and file
of the workers I'm and about the mines. II
is my hope that when they are educated to
understand these conditions they may be
in future actions.
If my advice had been followed a longer
time would have been taken before the
present crisis was reached in order that
these things could be explained and bet
ter understood. President MitchelIs state
ment was fastened by the fact that scraps
or were given TO the public,
embarrassing him with his men. When it
is considered that two-thirds of the mine
workers are foreigners, speaking six, eight

There were many brilliant plays during
the contest, and these brought forth a few
cheers. especially those made by Sutthof,
Ferguson and Shannon. Sutthoff gathered
in a line drive from McCann's bat in the
fourth with his left hand. The catch was
such a marvellous one IL surprised the spec

error in right. Woodruff smashed one on
the trade mark and Ferguson stuck out his
mitt. The ball imbeded in the glove, and,
picking IL out with his right hanG he threw
10 first in time TO double Kuhns. Shannon's
brilliant effort came I'm the seventh, when
he caught a hard fly from Heydon's bat.
The fortunes OF battle did not smile par
ttcularly well on the HoOsier players, and,
coupled with bad luck I'm failing to make
some of their hard drives go safe and
rather careless fielding at times. St. Paul
gathered IN a victory. SutthOff was on the
sand pile for indianapolis, and while the
score shows only six hits were made off
him II does not chronicle the fact that two
OF his gifts were converted into runs and
an error and one or two dopey plays al
lowed the Saints to lay claim to the vic
tory. Indianapolis hit Ferguson for one
more hit than was secured off Sutthoff. but
hits at the proper time did not figure in
boosters.
owing TO Babb being slightly lame as a
result of the spiking he received last week
at indianapolis Woodruff was sent to the
third sack. He only had two chances, but
ne accepted them clearly. He secured one
of the hits credited to indianapolis. Coulter
had many hard chances in center, which
he gathered ia without a hutter, and Kuhns
also won admiration by his good fielding.
SutthOn helded his position without an err
ror, and the same can be said Of Ferguson.

Contest Tonight at Empire.

Much interest is taken In the gas belt
towns in the match tonight at the Empire
Theater in this city between Jack Cullen
and kid" Blackburn for ten rounds TO a
decision. Cullen is a great favorite in the
gas belt, as he has been seen in matches in
that part Of the State. Orders for seats
have been received from Muncie, Anderson,
Marion and other cities and many of the
gas-belt men will come prepared to back
Cullen. Few of them have seen Blackburn
in the ring, but they realize he will give
Cullen a stiff argument.
The first contest will be called promptly
at $50 and there will be no tiresome de-
lays between the bouts. As soon as one
preliminary is finished the next will be
called and when the time comes for the
main bout Cullen and Blackburn will be
ready TO enter the ring.
