In view of the fact that Abraham
Lincoln's name was brought before
the Coal Miners commission by the
attorneys of the coal barons, some of
his remarks relative to labor prove in
teresting at this time. In a speech at
Hartford in 1860, referring to the
New England shoemakers' great strike
he said: ''Thank God we have a sys-
TEN of labor where there can be a
strike. Whatever the pressure, there
is point where the workingman may
STOP" At another time he said:
Capital is the fruit of labor, and
could not exist if labor had not first
existed. Labor, therefore, deserves
much the higher consideration"

- Labor Unions from an Educator $

economy club of Boston, has been
widely commented upon, and is great

that the Industrial community as q

the unions They have. as natfer
of fact, mitigated many evils. They
have reduced what used to be the Sln-
reasonable number of hours in a DAYS

conditions in fac cries and mines, and
have procured legislation which has

W. S. Waudby, well known writer
on labor matters, in an article on
trades unions says: 1.-THE value of CO.

preciated were they in existence, as
they are in England, in times Of a
strike in any industry. This is one of
the things that trades unions in this
country have never given fair trial
There is room in every city and town
for department store run strictly CO.
operative, and it would be quite easy
to secure competent management, now
that the clerks are organized. This
will be better method than patroniz-
ing company stores, especially in the

SHORT LIVED REVOLT
ALAVANTICs, A sERVIAN, KILLED
IN THE ATTEMPT.
Trouble Occurred at Shabats, a Town
on the Frontier OF
Servia.

BELGRADE, Servia, March 5.-An extra
ordinary attempt to start revolution was
made this morning at the frontier town or
Shabats by a raid under the leadership of
Alavantics, a relative of Prince karageorge-
vich, the pretender to the Servian throne
The only result was that Alavantics was
killed and his adherents were arrested.
Alavantics, with a handful of followers
arrived at Shabats from MtrowicZ wearing
the uniform of a general in the Servian
army, and called to the frontier guard to
follow him. The latter not suspecting that
anything was wrong, accompanied the sup
posed general to the town hall, where Ala
vantics ordered the men of the fire depart
ment to join him. This motley procession
proceeded to the gendarmes' barracks,
where Alavantics paraded the gendarmes
Two of the latter, however, whose sus
piciOns We're aroused. escaped and apprised
their commander. Captain Nikolics The
latter, when he arrived on the scene, called
on Alavantics to produce some document
as authority for his actions. whereupon the
would-be revolutionist leader fired a re-
volver at Captain Nikolics and slightly
wounded him. Nikolics promptly shot and
killed Alavantics, whose followers were
then arrested.

Today's naval orders announce the re-
tirement of Rear Admiral J. A. Howell
on the 18th instant. Admiral Howell is at
the head Of the list Of rear admirals and
next to Admiral Dewey is the ranking
officer of the navy. A native of New York,
he entered the navy in September, 1854,
and has had continuous service for
nearly forty-five years, about seven
teen of which were spent at sea. He reach
ed the grade of rear admiral by gradual
promotion in August, 1893. while in COM
mand Of one of the divisions Of the fleet
in the West Indies. Since November. 1893,
he has been stationed in this city as

chief of the bureau Of navigation, to the
grade Of rear admiral, and permit the

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NORFOLK, Va, March 5.-Mayor Ma
thaniel Beamon stated this morning to
your correspondent that there is no neces-
sity for the declaration of martial law as
a result of the strike. He thinks that since
the issue of his proclamation the people
will remain off the streets in the turbulent
district of yesterday and that there Will
be little further disorder. Four additional
companies of the list Infantry have been
ordered out and this will place the entire
command in the field, two battalions being
already in service.
This morning all was quiet and the cars
guarded by troops were moving at long
intervals. No passengers are being car
ried.

obstructions were removed by the troops.
At midnight the troops We're called upon
to disperse a mob at Church and charlotte
streets. BayOnetS We're used, but 1t Is
not known that there were any casualties.
This morning before daybreak as a de-
tachment of the Huntington Rifles, Com
pany G, list Regiment, from Newport
News under the command Of Lieutenant
Moore, We're marching down Church street
to the armory, they caught w. Is. Rudolph,
Tom Murray. Sam Ayers, all white, and
Tom Jenkins, colOred, tearing up the
tracks OF the street car line dl lIe CORNER
Of Church and Holt Street-and placed them
under arrest. The four men were carried
to the police station and locked up. An Of
ficer of the company stated later that an
attempt at dynamiting the tracks had been
made. The police denied the rumor. The
Suffolk company has also arrived here.
Fifteen strike breakers from Knoxville
came on the same train and were guarded
by the troops to the barn. The situation
grows graver as the day advances. The
arrival Of the imported men intensities the
feeling.
The action of the labor organizations in
calling out the electricians, who are en-
ployed in the central power station of the
Norfolk Railway and Light Company is apt
to have the gravest consequences. The
plant supplies practically all the electric
power and ligt.. used in the city. 1t is said
that there is some doubt about the cleo
tricians obeying the order.
Many electrically operated industries are
wholly dependent upon the railway and
light company for their power. The police
think that the reason there was no trou-
BILE during the morning was that the rain
fell in torrents. They are apprehensive Of
later developments.

BOER DELEGATES CALL
MEssRs. WoLMoRANs AND IVES
SELLS SEE MR.. HAY.
Want the Government to Use It's In.
huence Against Continuance
of War.

The Boer representatives who came to
the United States from Europe for the pur-
nose of comforting with the Secretary of
State have accomplished their purpose.
Mr. Montague White. consul general Of the
South African republic at New York. who
has been acting as guide for the dele
gates, called at the State Department early
today and made an appointment with Sec
retary Hay to receive the delegates. These
came to the department at II o'clock and
were Immediately admitted to the diplo-
matte ROOM There were but two, Messrs.
Womorans and Vessels, and they were
unaccompanied, even by Mr.. White 1t was
Beers were received as private citizens
and not in an official capacity. Secretary
Hay talked to them freely with this un-
derstanding.
Object Of the Call.
The principal object of the delegates was
to induce the United States government to
do something to terminate the present
bloody struggle in South Africa. They
were not very specific as to what they
wanted, and apparently would be satisfied
with almost anything-from Intervention
direct to simple tender Of good offices
on the part of the United States.
The Secretary of State heard them at
tentively and promised to consider their
representations, and. if possible, to do
whatever he could to ameliorate the con-
ditions in South Africa. But he pointed
out that the President was the prime au-
thority in such matters and he recon-
mended that the Beers see Mr. Roosevelt
and ascertain his views. This they gladly
agreed to do. and they will be received at
the White House in the same unofficial
capacity.
Supplies for the British,
A matter of complaint by the delegates
was the shipment of horses, mules and pro-
visions from the United States to the
British forces in South Africa. Secretary
Hay went over this subject very patiently
with them, going to the length of citing
authorities and precedents in the history
of our own government, which, he pointed
out, cOnclusvey established the lack of
authority on the part of the general gov
ernment to stop the American farmer from
shipping his provisions and the American
stOckraiser from selling his product any
where in the world where they could get
the best prices. The Secretary also pointed
out that the governments attitude in this,
as in other matters connected with the
South African war. had been strictly neu-
trail, and it had done nothing to prevent
shipments Of commodities to the Boer
forces.
