the unions in the marble trades. which
report that they have signed wage

years. beginning May l. This agreement
affects six thousand persons.
The house smiths, bridgemen and
structural iron workers union. 470o

WORKMAN SHOOTS
WEALTHY MERCHANT
Crime Enacted in New York for Which
There Is No Known
Motive.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-Leo Werth-
elmer, wealthy drygoods merchant,
was shot three times in his home in
West 115th street early today. He
was wounded In the chest, arm and
right side, and is in a serious condi-
ton. Charged with the shooting the
police have arrested Joseph Simpson,
80 years old, of East 121st street.
The injured man is 80 years old and
a member of the firm of Aaron &
Wertheimer, drygoods merchants, who
recently were burned out at their place
Of business i'll Third avenue. Simpson,
the police say, was employed there
as a Waterman prior to the fire. At
the time Of the fire two persons were
burned to death.
Motive Mystery.
The motive for the shooting is a
mystery both to the police and the
Wertheimer family, and Simpson, who
was very cool when arrested, refused
to make any statement. Since the fire
Wertheimer has not been engaged in
any business. The firm discharged it's
employees, including Simpson, but he
got work as a motOrman. A week
ago he lost that position. He had a
long talk with Mr.. Werthein1er yes
terday afternoon and returned last
night. He again talked with Mr.. Wer-
theimer and the family think simp-
son wanted money. The latter return
ed to the Wertheimer home at an early
hour today and the shooting occurred
in the hallway of the house after which
Simpson walked away and later was
arrested. All Simpson would say was
that Wertheimer owed him money for
something he had done and had re-
fused to pay him. Wertheimer denied
this, but said Simpson had demanded
money from him as a brother Mason.

An eloquent speaker, battling in the
cause Of human liberty, once said: The
capitalist knows no country but his
counting house, no bible but his ledger,
no god but mammon. All that is good,
all that is roly, all that is noble, is
sacrificed on the alter Of profit" It's
Journal.
Can there be any sane reason why
men should work two hours per day
for themselves and then work eight
hours to pay for the privilege of be-
ing allowed to work the two.-Iowa So
cialist.
Profit has been the incentive of every
war and the proletarians have been
used by the patricians to do the fight
ing to degrade still lower the great
mass of humanity. whose degradation
brings more luxury and power for the.
few. The time has come when the few
who breed the quarrel should do the
fighting. The men who belong in the
ranks of labor cannot afford to fight
battles for oppressors. The hosts of
labor in every cline should be brothers,
and scorn to kill each other at the COM
mand of shylocks.-Miners' Magazine.
One ship was recently loaded with
bodies Of 500 Americal soldiers killed
in the Philippines. The cargo of death
is a melancholy comment on the glory
of war and the grandeur of patriotism.
Civilization!-F'ree Society.
Savages conquer wild beasts. civil
lied races nquer savages, unrestrict-
ed greed and luxurious indulgence con-
puer civilized nations. The lessons of
the ages are written plainly that they
all may read. No nation can remain
great while want long prevades the
masses and luxury is the plaything Of
the few.-T. l.. Fisher.
Shades Of the days of Roman deca-
dence! Two Pittsburg society women
matched their pet dogs. the stakes be-
ing $500 supper. The fight was duly
pulled f. in the presence of an
audience of evening gowns. This takes
the edge of the Newport monkey din
ner.-Wheeling Intelligencer.
Always remember that the labor or
CARNATIONS do not advocate impudence
on the part of the member to the en-
ployer, but rather that in the laws of
the organizations the lesson Is taught
to be prompt and punctual in the per-
forrnance Of every duty; to live noble
life and to so conduct himself as to
merit the approval of all. II these les
sons are NOS obeyed, then the organ
ization to which a man may belong
should. not5.assure him*sof protection.
, No organization can afford to protect
member in negligence sor impudence
to the employer. or foreman. The. OBJ
ject sis5t q make bet ter mem socially md
intellectually, as well az fo strive for
better treatment at the hands of the
employers.-The Union.
Men who employ child labor, as we'll
as men who, irldolent at home, live
upon the earnings Of their children,
should be smitten with public condem
| nation. Under the old regime the slave
dealer--the man who-in order to make
money, separated fathers, mothers and
! children-was sacially obstracised. Their
is no sound reason why men who traf-
flc in their own childrens lives should
escape similar punishment The Amer
lean Federation Of Labor can do no
higher service than to throw its
weighty influence against the modern
system Of child labor that obtains in
many sections of the United States
New Orleans Times.
