M0ULDERS STILL OUT.
Machinists Situation Is Unchanged.
One Shop Signs Scale.

Machtnists Situation Is Unchanged.
One shop Signs Scale.
There were some new developments
in the moulders' strike this week.
Daugherty signed the scale late last
week. This makes two shops now OBJ
serving the nine-hour day. Two of the
larger employers said early in the week
that the matter would probably be set
tied in few days. Attempts have been
made to get men from the outside, but
without success.
The moulders are very sanguine over
the situation, and have hopes for COM
plete success within the next week.
The machinists situation is yet un-
changed. The Trades Assembly COM
mittee waited upon the managers of the
Clyde on Saturday last with view of
bringing about settlement, but with
poor success.
Two of the machinists have returned
to work, but this has not discouraged
others by any means.
Two men quit at the National during
the. week for refusing to turn out nom
who is id AIinneap lis, was sent for, but
at this writing has failed to appear.

The committee of the Trades AS
sembly appointed to wait on the man.
agement of the Clyde Iron Works, con-
sisting of Ewald, Moran, Perault and
Richardson, in the interest of the
Machinists' union, reports, that the
company agreed to put the men back
to work just as soon as they have
work for them; that they will receive a
committee from the union in friendly
spirit to discuss any grievance, and
that the matter Of requiring the ma
chinists to work on castings declared
unfair by ;he Iron Moulders' union will
be discussed, when the machinists are
requested to do so: desiring not to
climb a fence until they came to it.
The union requested that the latter
que stion be settled before they re-
turned to work, as that was the griev-
ance that caused them to strike.
At this writing this question could
not be agreed upon.
1t is expected that Mr.. Wilson, the
fourth vice president, will be here
shortly and may aid in procuring set
tlement if such can be made while
the moulders are out on strike.

TUGMEN'S STRIKE,
Men Seem to Have Control of the
Situation.

Situation.
The Tugmen's strike is still unsettled.
All of the tugs along the lakes are tied
up save few at the 500, which are
kept in the service to protect govern
ment property.
At Duluth but one tug is in the SER
vice, which is manned by an outside
crew. The tug firemen are awaiting the
developments of the strike in thu hope
that they will come in on the finish.
Two members of the local lodge of the
L. T. F. A. worked for few days dur
ing the strike, but one of the men, Cap
tain ]. F. Thompson. reconsidered his ac-
tion and quit work
In an interview with the Labor World
he said: "The Typographical union is
taking a good deal of credit upon itself
for pulling me off, but the truth is, quit
on my own accord. I realized that l
had made a mistake. I thought that /
had received the worst of it from the
Association this spring, and upon the
impulse of the moment I went to work.
Later, when l began to think over the
matter with calm judgment, 1 satisfied
myself that I was doing wrong, so I
tied up the boat and quit"
The union men were much pleased
that Captain Thompson had pulled in,
and said that it was but matter of a
few days when all would be over.
Some people think that the trust pre-.
fers to have the strike last for some
time. They think that if commerce is
delayed during the early part of the
season, that better rates will prevail
during the last of the year.

PLASTERERS' SURPRISED.

The Plasterers' union held it's regular
meeting as usual last Monday and was
just about to adjourn when knock at
the wicket was heard, and when the
guard opened the door, the wives and
lady friends of the members rushed into
the hall demanding a surrender. Their
weapons were sandwiches and cakes
and what man would refuse to surren-
der to these. The plasterers' orchestra
was brought into service, and 1t was
long after midnight when the joint
meeting adjourned.
These are affairs tDt we have been
hoping to see for many years. The
plasterers started the social feature Of
their union last winter. It was popular
from the very beginning. If the other
unions did this it would not be long
before a unity of purpose would exist,
that would extend far beyond trade
matters. .1< 49,,

STRIKE AVERTED.
Business Agent Saves n Strike on
New Building.

A new building. which is being erect
ed on the east side of Lake avenue just
south of Superior street, was the scene
of an exciting time for Il few minutes
yesterday The plumbers, electrical
workers and carpenters refused to work
there so long as three non-union painters
were employed. They were about to
leave the building when the business
agent of the Building Trades Council
appeared and ordered the men back to
work until he could see the contractors.
lie soon returned with the contractor,
who ordered the men to quit or join the
Painters union. 1t is likely that they
will join.

The American Federationist has re-
produced an article on Poverty by Ira
Stewart. 1t concluded with the follow
ing recapitulation of the points estab-
lished in the article:
First-Brain work is not worth the
large compensation claimed in it's behalf.
Second-First-clas brains do not re-
ceive the largest compensation.
Third-It is capital, not brains, that
receives the largest rewards, and it is
the poverty of the masses that gives
capital it's extraordinary power in this
respect; so that the capital of the cap
italist consists largely in the poverty of
the poor.
FOurth-TO make poverty impossible,
will extinguish the motive for ever de-
manding compensation beyond certain
amount; as the work and care involved
in keeping the results of labor, that are
not required for present consumption,
equal in condition to what they were
when produced, can be employed to bet
ter advantage in producing only about as
fast as they are wanted.
Fifth-The poverty of the masses Is
the great hindrance to production, a
better distribution will stimulate pro-
duction.
Sixth-Wealth is the master sld pow
erty is the slave of the so-called law of
supply and demand; and in more equal
distribution of wealth, there will be
neither master nor slave.
Seventh-The skillful management of
great financiers has no more to do with
their vast accumulations than the gen.
eral progress of the masses.
Eighth-The public has the same right
to plan for a more equal distribution Of
the future productions Of labor, that
employers have to plan concerning the
wages they will pay tomorrow; and the
more equal distribution we propose,
means reducing, through natural causes,
the future compensation Of manufacture
ers, merchants, bankers, transportation
and mining managers, etc.
Ninth-All of the wealth produced up
to this hour has been distributed through
generally recognized and accepted meth
DDS. 1t is neither possible, nor desirable,
nor necessary, to propose its re-distribu-
tion. Looking back upon the accumula-
tions of the past, therefore, only for in
struction, what do we now propose?
TAeevgh the gradual l,z.peacefnl,+, and
perfectly acceptable operation Of natural
and permanent causes, we demand a
more equal distribution of the future re-
.Sults of labor. How this can be done
will seem clearer, if we first learn how
wealth has been as equally distributed as
it is. In other words, we must first dis
cover how the masses obtain the food,
clothes, shelter, and luxuries that they
now possess, before we can intelligently
suggest how their share of wealth in the
future can be essentially and permanent
ly increased.
Through what channel of distribution
the mass of mankind secure the little
they now enjoy. is, therefore, the next
question; and the answer will be found
the same for all countries, wherever the
organization of industry has advanced
far enough to establish a division of
labor!

BOOM THE MEETING

WILL BE A HUMMER.
Very Quickly-ROchester Unions

tiOn Not Yet Given Out-Notes of
Interest Throughout the State.

The coming convention of the State
Federation of Labor promises to be the
greatest ever held. Credentials by the
dozen are reaching the secretary every
day.
This will be convention of new dele
gates. For some reason or other the
older members of the Federation are re-
tiring, and this year newer blood will
be injectioned into the states great
labor body.
The City of Rochester is making ex-
tensive preparations for the reception
and entertainment of delegates. An en-,
thusiastic committee consmIi6g ts5iiis 81 mem
bers Of the Cigarmakers and Clerks uni
ons are at work and assure the officers
that everything will be in readiness for
them. The daily paper at Rochester is
taking an unusual interest in the coming
gathering and has assured us that it will
do everything in it's power to make the
meeting successful.
The Cook Hotel will be the head
quarters of the officers. The conven-
tion will be held in the Opera House.
1t is too early to give out the pro-
gram Of the convention, but many i'm
portant matters will be taken up. The
principal feature will be the discussion
of matters pertaining TO organization.
The Federation feels proud of it's work
this year. 1t has extended the work
of organization into fields heretofore
without organizations of labor
The main event of the convention will
and should be the furtherance of the
work of organization. Political action
will as usual receive it's share of the dis
cussion. On account of the new dele
gates it is difficult to at this time state
what the outcome will be.

First Analysis Of Aerolites.

In 1896 a stone weighing ffty-six
pounds was exhibited in London. It
was said to have fallen from the sky
in Yorkshire in the previous December,
but this statement was received with
great incredulity. At that time Sir Jo-
seph Banks was president Of the Royal
society, and he noticed a strong re-
semblance between the Yorkshire stone
and one sent to him from Siena, in It
ally, which was said to have fallen
from the sky. Two or three years lat
er he received an account Of a fall of
stones near Benares, in Hindustan. A
chemical analysis of the stones from
all three sources proved them to be
Identical in composition, and increduli-
ty as to their meteoric origin began
to give way.-Notes and Queries.

NATURAL HISTORY.

Ostriches live to the age Of about
sixty years.
The mandarin duck is one of the
most beautiful Of aquatic birds.
So %voracious is the cod that it will
swallow anything it ees in motion.
An eel has two separate hearts. One
beats 60, the other 160, times a minute.
A ladybird can travel 10000 100000
times it's own length in an hour. In
that time a sloth can only travel fifty
times it's own length.
There is no country in the world in
which the raven is not found to De ma
tive; it is also the only bird known to
ornithologists which is of such cosmo-
politan character.
Only one existing reptile can sustain
itself in the air: This is the flying
dragon of the East Indies. 1t has no
real wings, but a glide from tree to
tree like a flying squirrel.
The common house fly usually pro.
duces the note F In flying. To do SO
it must vibrate it's wings 1856 times a
second. The honey bee sounds A,
which means that it's wing vibrations
are 40 to the second.

Bats and Vampires.

At sunset in the forest of Guiana the
bats fit from their hiding places, some
taking the place Of the parrots and
focking around the fruit trees. while
the horrid vampires wander far and
near in search Of some sleeping ami
NAL, or even man, in order to obtain
a meal. Cows, goats, hogs, fowls as
well as game birds and quadrupeds all
suffer from their attacks if not Sc
cured III well latticed pens, while the
traveller must not be surprised when
awaking to find blood oozing from
a wound in his foot or temple.
In some places domestic animals can
not be kept at all, as they are SO weak
ened by repeated attacks as to ulti-
mately die Of exhaustion. Fortunately,
however. the vampires are not very
common, and with proper care may be
excluded from dwelling houses and
stock pens.--Longman's Magazine.

An Ancient Bible.

In the Cottonian library in England
is an old manuscript copy Of a part Of
the Bible in Latin. The London
Chronicle says it was used at the cor
onations Of English sovereigns 300
years before the 'stone Of destiny"
was brought from Scone to Westmin-
ster by Edward 1.
If this be true, the use of this Bible
for the purpose dates back to the year
1000. 1t is a quarto of PIT leaves, con
tanning the four gospels, and seems
from the style Of the writing and illu-
limitations, which are very beautiful,
to have been made about the end Of
the ninth century.
1t narrowly escaped destruction in
the fire at Ashburnham House in 1871,
of which it bears evidence in its
crumpled leaves and singed margins.
There is some evidence that the son of
Edward the Elder, Athelstan the Clio
rious, who was king Of the West Sax
ons from 925 to $40, owned this Bible
and gave it to the church of Dover.

HENRY CLAY AS AN ACTOR.
How the Great Lawyer Won a Hope
less Case.

How the Great Lawyer Won a Hope
less Case.
An old and well known traveller, who
has recently settled in Chicago. while
coming in from Pewee valley the other
afternoon told an interesting story
about Henry Clay, the great Kentucky
statesman. The story teller in his
youth lived in Mr.. Clay's district dur
ing the time when Henry Clay was at
his prime as a lawyer.
"a man was once being tried for
murder" said the narrator. and his
case looked hopeless indeed. He had
without any seeming provocation muir
dered one of his neighbors in cold
blood. Not a lawyer in the county
would touch the case. 1t looked bad
enough to ruin the reputation Of any
barriSter.
The man as a last extremity ap-
pealed to Mr.. Clay to take the case for
him. Every n thought that Clay
would certainly refuse, but when the
celebrated lawyer looked into the mat
ter his fighting blood was reused. and,
to the great surprise of all, he accept
ed.
t.Then came a trial the like of, which
1 have never seen. Clay slowly car
ried on the case, and it looked more
and more hopeless. The only ground
of defense the prisoner had was that
the murdered man had looked at him
with such q fierce, murderous look that
out Of self defense he had struck first.
A ripple passed through the jury at
this evidence.
: 1.-THE time came for Clay to make his
defense. 1t was settled in the minds
Of the spectators that the mar was
guilty Of murder in the first degree.
Clay calmly proceeded, laid all the
proof before them in his mastery way,

clude, he played his last and master
card. .-. j
