HELPERS WALK OUT
TWENTY-FIVE MEN EMPLOYED AT
HOIST AND DERRICK WORKS
ON STRIKE -
WILL TRY TO FORM A UNION
Demanded Increase of Twenty-Five
Cents Per Day-Four Hundred
Men Similarly Employed
Are Interested.

Because they were refused an increase
Of % cents per day the helpers and chip
perS employed by the American Hoist
and Derrick company walked out yestei,-
day at noon. The number of those who
struck is between twenty and twenty
five, and the 400 men who work at this
trade IN St. Paul will meet today in Fed
Grafton hall for the purpose Of perfect
ing union organization. AS it is these
men have no organization whatever, al
though during the past week preliminary
plans were made.
The men asked their foreman Friday
for an increase of Is cents all around and
the foreman reported to them that the
company would increase their wages 10
per cent The men are not paid any reg
| ular scale of wages, drawing all the way
from $165 day to 81. The increase Of
fered was not enough, and yesterday
when the men quit for dinner, they re-
fused to return to work. Every helper
| and clipper employed by the company
was out.
While a large percentage of the men
who struck yesterday are, more strictly
| speaking, laborers, they claim that the
! nature of the work they perform is such
that it will take time to replace them,
especially as they claim the wages are
| not particularly alluring.
| No other men struck in the works as
| the machinists and molders who are en-
! rloyed there have an agreement with
| the company which does not expire until
| May l. Even if this agreement was not
| in effect the urions could not take an
| official cognizance Of the strike as it is
| not now a union affair
The laborers employed at the American
| Hoist and Derrick company claim that
their work is laborious and that it is no
more than just that they should receive a
| higher salary.
| 1t is estimated that there are in the
| neighborhood of 400 men in ST. Paul who
make their living in this manner, and an
! effort will be made this afternoon to get
| them all into line to join the new union.
! There was no other trouble in any of the
foundries or concerns of a like nature in
| the city yesterday.
| Among the machinists and molders the
| American Hoist and Derrick company
| has the reputation of being fair towards
! it's men, and these men feel that the only
! course for the strikers to pursue is to
! form an organization that will compel
! every concern in the city to pay the same
| scale of wages.

age citizen Of the city has no idea of the
amount of improvements that are being
made. Even down town, where everybody
can see them, they are not properly zap
precfated. l can name a dozen business
houses that have increased in size during
the past three years. and these same
houses are adding to their capacity this
spring.
1.-The growth of a city depends TO q
great extent upon the settlement of the
tributary country. This being admitted
1T must also be admitted that the out
look for st. Paul is bright, when the
train loads OF settlers that are going into
the Northern country are considered. All
this will have it's bearing on the de-
velopme2t.
Early Prediction Realized.
Il made a speech twenty-seven years
ago in regard to the growth Of the twin
Cities up to that time, and in predicting
for the future I said that the population
OF st. Paul, Minneapolis and the surround
ing towns would reach 100000 in the next
twenty-five years, and perhaps 100000 Had
l said 100000 1 would have been more
nearly correct, as after years have shown.
At that time l was thought to be vision
airy and entirely too optimistic, but events
show that l was not.
Il can now see a still better future for
st. Paul. If one will drive out to the in
terurban districts he will be greatly sur
prised at the number of new homes that
are going up each year. And they are
all frst-class homes. Some are cheap, as
the owners are not rich, but they are far
ahead OF what was commonly considered
TO be good enough several years ago.
From every point look at the situation l
feel that it is all that can be desired"

GET CURTAINS FROM ST. GALL.
Field, SchIick & Co. Have Good For
tune to Pick Up Big Bargain.


What housewife does not admire and
appreciate pair of fine, snowy, we'll
hung curtains? Yet how little is known
of the history of these curtains! How
few can tell l-Sw they are made and "a
WHAT country, and how they reach the
big stores Of the West. A housewife will
tell you vaguely when her beautiful cur
tains have been admired that they are
imported" but 1t is doubtful IL her in
formation will go beyond that. She does
not know. for instance, that these i'm
ported curtains are really purchased by
the merchants before they are made up:
that ten and sometimes eleven or twelve
months before the curtains are desired
the agent from abroad-from Switzerland
generally, for here the finest curtains are
made-comes to New York and exhibits
his samples
The merchants or their BUYERS select
from these what they want or about what
their customers will want and the or
der is given. The agent returns to his
own country and turns in his orders and
immediately the curtain makers get to
work to turn out what is desired But
nine months is a long time and fire.
quently big changes take place in that
period Sometimes some Of the houses
that nave placed big orders for the cur
tainS are destroyed by fire, or fall or
meet with some other i'll that stores are
heir to. and there is the big stock to be
disposed Of. Progressive merchants real
ize the chances that are taken and their
buyers are constantly on the alert to pick
up bargains.
Because of one ST. Paul buyers alert
ness the st. Paul housewives will have
chance to pick up some surprising bar
gains in lace curtains this week The
buyer is Mr.. Jones, of Field, Schlick &,
Co. He has just returned from New
York, where he had the good fortune to
purchase at a very low price a large
number of curtains made in ST Gall,
from business. These curtains number
in all about 1000 pairs and have a mar
ket value all the way from IS to $50
They are divided into two lots The first
lot will be sold at discount of 90 1-3
per cent, and the other at IS per cent dis
count. The curtains are all fresh and
clean and the lot includes Arabian lace,
Renaissance, Louis XIV, Irish point,
Tambour and Brussels lace.

Johnson's paper thus refers to the case:
The board Of control has enjoyed any4
thing but a savory reputation in st. Pc
ter, and their standing here was not ma
terially improved in their action last Sat
urday when James NJ. Rogers and
Charles e. Tegner were discharged from
further duty for no valid reason. In fact,
they not only had no good reason, but
practically none at all, and then Mr..
Leavitt, who is the head and body OF tho
board, went back to St. Paul and showed
lot Of stuff into the daily papers there
which actually reflected on the two gen.
tlemen named.
'One thing is certain, neither Of them
have been injured in the slightest by tho
outrageous and contemplate attack OF the
board Of control. Their standing could
not be affected by such an attack, partic-
ularly when the author Of it, Mr. Leavitt,
wines and says he is sorry because no
such reflection was intended. All OF
which is a very lame defense for an un4
warranted action"

MUST FACE A DOCTOR
MATHnDA sKOGLUND ORDERED
TO UNDERGO AN EXAMINATION.

In the case of Matilda J. Skoglund
against the St. Paul Gas Light company
Judge Bum has ordered that Mrs. Skog-
lund submit to an examination by ply
stefan to be named by the defendant, or
her case shall be dismissed.
Mrs. Skoglund bases her claim for dam
ages of $4,000 upon the allegation that
asphyxiated in her room by illuminating
gas through the negligence Of the de-
PENDANT company in turning off the sup
ply in the pipes and then turning it on
again without warning the consumers Of
their intention. She has thus far refused
to submit to an examination by phv-
siciar employed by the gas company.

Beginning tomorrow morning, the street
car line on Selby avenue will be abandon

ST. ANTHONY PARK LIGHT FRAN

The ordinance passed by the assembly
granting to Friend b. Brace and others a
lighting franchise for St. Anthony Park
is now in the possession of Mayor Smith
who says he does not know yet whether
he will sign it or not.
The franchise was granted reluctantly
by the assembly, and it is probable that
sufficient pressure will be brought to
bear to induce a veto. Some of the as
semblymen think the city is not receiv-
ing what the franchise is worth. There
are others who think the companyais not
all that it was claimed to be.
