How stonecutters Get Money for
Their Treasury. y. .a.r.<.,,E

: New York, July 25.-Ans interesting
process by which the journeymera stone
cutters union raised money when its
treasury had been depleted by the in,
roads Of secret committees and the adj
vance payments to certain OF. it's power
full members for services to be >refl :
dered," was revealed at the trial Of Law
renee Murphy before Judge Newburger in
general sessions. :..-s/. - p.
Assistant District Attorney Mott, who
is conducting the prosecution, was much
wrought up over the contention of the de-
Tense that the $4,000 which the six mem
bers of the secret committee voted to
themselves had like the $4,000 check
from the Brooklyn employers, been ex-
torted from bosses, and by recalling John
Boyle to the stand he endeavored to show
that this money was really accumulated
fines, dues and assessments Of members.
Boyle, in a burst Of virtuous indignat ton
at the insnuations of John F. Mcintyre,
declared that the money did not come
from members, but on cross examination
reluctantly admitted that, altho the fines
were imposed upon members, the employ
ers Of these members we've obliged to pay
them. He said that the union fined $50
of it's members $40 each-for just what,
did not appear. Or course the men could
not pay this money themselves, and of
course If they did not they would be sus-
pended from the union. Suspended from
the union they would be beyond the pale
of it's protection. An employer who gave
work to a suspended member would him
self fall under the displeasure Of the
union.
Therefore, the only thing they could do
to keep at work on their contracts with
union men was to pay. the fines the union
had infiictAd on these men. They did
this, and ~ THIS interesting process the
treasury Of the stonecutters' union was
kept in good shape. ~
When Walking Delegate Call, who testi-
fed, left the stand, he made this state
ment to reporters:
$50 that there will be no misunder-
standing about our union, want to say
right now that this is the principle we
stand on. If an employer does not obey
the rules Of our union, and a strike fol-
lows as result, he Is bound to pay our
expenses before the men can return to

The fruit list, generally speaking, has ad-

BILE for the reduced receipts here, but infor-
nation from the coast is to the effect that
from now on Minneapolis will come nearer to
receiving its just share of the fruit from
that district. The demand for berries has
been unusually heavy, fully warranted by
the excellent quality which has ruled this
year. Gooseberries are virtually over with,
while most currants are coming over-ripe,
and another week will end their season.
Blackberries are the staple, and hold up
extremely well in price considering the fact

MURPHYS ARE DOWN
A Big Slump early in the Week,
With Market Slow to
React.
Butter and Eggs Show No Striking
Features, but Firm at
Quotations. @

Heavy offerings of potatoes forced sharp
decline this week. Local gardeners have
been marketing freely, the former high
values causing them to rush all possible to
market. The outlet proved too small to take
care of the generous amount coming IN, and
values went to pieces in a hurry. Nearby
growers show wide difference of opinion as
to what the general price will be on the
early stock. Many of them anticipate a
break, and such parties were among those
who endeavored to get their stock to market
early. Many others believe the drop to be
but of a temporary nature. and refuse to
haul at present figures, All agree that the
crop hereabouts is of good proportions, but
believe that an increased territory, which
usually produces enough for its own con.
storms and wet weather. will have to depend
upon the northwest for it's supplies, and
therefore have favorable influence upon
values.
The butter market has SHOWN no change
during the week. Receipts Of top grades in
both creamery and dairy makes are much
lighter, and stocks reduced to a low
basis, but 80 far have not had the bracing
effect upon values that would naturally be
expected. Low grades are also steady and
featureless. Renovators and ladders are TAX
ing what stock is coming but do not seem
over anxious for the goods, and are not
disposed to bid against each other for ar
rivals.
A slightly higher figure developed on eggs
a day or so ago, but it demands more or less
effort on the part of receivers to hold values
up to the advanced figure. Receipts are
fairly generous, and most houses are re-
ceiving a sufficient amount to supply their

The Lives Of Animals

Some curious statistics have just been
published upon what an insurance actu-
airy would describe as the expectation Of
life" In animals Among the larger spe-
cies of cattle there is some approach to
uniformity. Thus for the horse and the
ass the extreme limit Is about IS years,
dog 1t is given as %, while sheep, goats,
pigs and cats are grouped at 10. But
there are stranger disparities among birds.
While a goose may live 80 years, SPAR
row Is and crow as many as 100, ducks
poultry and turkeys die of old age at -
years. The palm for longevity Is divided
between elephant and parrot. Both pass
the century. The life of Porter steam
heating plant installed in your home is
a great deal longer, at the same time be-
ing cheap, durable and giving satisfac-
ton all the while. For particulars call
