THE MINERS, sTRIKE.

''We have had an experience this summer
that has been OF more benefit to the labor
movement of this country than anyone
would dared to have dreamed. The miners
of Pennsylvania went on strike for the oen,
eht OF themselves, burt j want TO ten you
that It has done more for the ultimate sue
cess of the whole labor movement than
any amount Of laws prepared and passed
by our lawyer representatives-eiected by
organized labor-would have done. Ana
how manfully they stood together. How
they passed the word up and down the
line, Stick together, boys, II 1t takes the
last drop of blood In your body; show TO
the world that the miners of Pennsylvania
are standing as one man for these condl-
lions, united like a solid mountain or
strength that they were, and all must 90
down together, or rise In their might
While they may not receive as much as
they were demanding at the hands OF the
board. still ] am Of the opinion that they
Will secure Just recognition Of their organ
i2ation and sufficient Increase In pay 10
warrant the stand taken In the strike.
'"The miners strike has proven this At
least to the cause Of labor: The recognition
Of our rights as labor unions, and the right
to demand what We think Is right, Justice
at the hands Of our employers, Justice for
our families and the right to belong In
a labor organization II we desire. The peo'
pie all over the world were In sympathy
| with the striking miners. hut II was the
FIRST time I'm the history Of organization
that We were accorded the right by the
whole people In dealing with the oper-
ators, Mr. Mitchell was most fair ever viii

moment lost control of his better judge

J To defend the principles OF the organization

| the board OF arbitrators will be fair enough

much consideration as their employers. Lel

BOSTON, Mass. March 1O.-What may
prove TO be the biggest strike in the his
tory Of Boston began this morning when
tesmsters, freight handlers, freight
clerks. and longshoremen to the number
Of several thousand. refused TO 20 TO
work
Not only Is IL expected that fully 100
men will be directly involved in the
strike here IN Boston. but that il viii
extend TO other New England cities.
Unless some steps are taken TO settle
the strike. the freight handlers and union
teamsters Of Springfield. Worchester. New
London. Fall River. Providence. Stoning-
ton. and Hartford may become involved.
The New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad employed a number OF Ital-
isns yesterday. and by night succeeded In
finishing up the work left by those who
quit on Saturday, loading and forwarding
everything on hand.
This morning Freight Agent Warner
said that he was able-to take care Of all
the freight that might be offered.
A crowd Of strikers gathered i9 Con-
Rress Street. hut up to noon DO act OF
violence had taken place.
The immediate cause Of the strike is the
discharge Of seven fright handlers on Fri
day and Saturday who refused 10 handle
cotton brought 70 the sheds OF the New
Haven road by the r. S. Brine Tra-scor-
tation Company's teams.
The indirect cause is the refusal Of
the Brine Company 70 recognize the team
sters' union and pay union wages for
work under union conditions

Mr.. Edward II. Ozmun, United States
Consul at Stuttgart. Germany. writes to
the State Department under date Of Feb
ruary 10:
1t is the common belief that the com
mercial rise OF Germany has been largely
due TO the results Of the Franco-Prus-
san war, which put money into its COT
fers and stimulated the energies Of the
people. Doubtless much OF Geruiany's
phenomenal success Of the last quarter
OF the past century was due to this event;
but in order TO gauge accurately the ma
tons capacities and aims, it is neces-
sary to look farther back than 1901
1T is perhaps unnecessary to say that
the whole standard of education in Ger
many is higher than in either the United
States or England. and technical educa-
tion had its beginning in Germany long
before the Franco Prussian war.
Sixty years ago, Llebig had fifty stu
dents working in his factory, and all Of
the German universitiessAave had their
own chemical laboratories since 1927. To-
day. there are in German factories 4. 500
thoroughly trained chemists, besides
more than 5000 assistants, whose brains
are constantly at work upon the problems
OF improving processes, lessening the cost
Of production, etc.
What Has Been Done in Sugar.
The sugar industry illustrates the
practical application which the Germans
make Of their educational system In
1870 $4,000 tons OF beet root were crush
ed. from which SOD tons Of raw sugar
were produced. showing about 5Ia per
cent Of raw sugar extracted from the
root Twenty years later 500 coo tons
were treated, which produced 128. 600 tons
Of sugar. or aSOut S per cent Last year
about l2.OO0.OOO tons were crushed. which
produced 1,5OO.0 C0 tons OF raw sugar
raising the percentage to 13. This ad-
vance is due entirely to scientific treat
ment.
The production Of dry eolors. chemi-
Gals, and dyes in Germany shows q cor
responding increase in product and in
dividend-paying capacity Comparing the
statistics Of the dyeing industry OF the
year 1874 with those OF 1888. IL is found
that Notwithstanding prices in 1895 were
considerably lower than in 1874 the net
income in 1874 was "A coo 600 marks (about
Sc 0O0 OO0l and in 1898 was III. GOO 900
marks about $4,000, 00Ol.
Constant Labor of Trained Men.
The great increase Of earning capacity
is due largely to the constant labor Of
trained men. who by application Of their
technical knowledge have so cheapeueI
production that they have succeeded in
getting this trade away from the Eng
lish who formerly controlled it,
Another Illustration is found in the
manufacture OF artificial indigo, a chemi-
cal process for making which was dis
covered in Germany about thirty-hve
years ago. Ii was started with less than
workmen all told. Il now employs over
5000 men. and has staff OF l48 scien-
tiic chemists. and by placing this sub
stitUUe upon the market al a very low
price they have nearly ruined the natural
indigo industry Of India.
The Germans have also discovered
