Speaker-to-Be Reported to Have Seen
New Light Since Visit to

There is to be financial legislation at

any opposition Representative Cannon,

believes such legislation is needed. ard
he has requested the Senator's who are
now at work on such a measure to have
il ready for the first days OF the special
session which begins November 9. II is
said Representative Cannon has been ir-
formed he must not attempt to control
the whole policy of the Government.
These are said TO be the main points
of the matters discussed at the gather
ing, two days ago. at oyster Bay. sey-
eral members of that party have re-
turned TO Washington, and they bring
with them reports that the whole finan-
cial situation was talked over, thorough
ly thrashed out. aud that Representative
Cannon obtained much information as
to the position of the Administration.
When He Stood Pat.
Prior TO his departure from Washing
ton Representative Cannon said his views
on the financial situation were all en-
bodied in a statement made by him 10
the press July ., which consisted IF
about 250 words. and in which he an
nounced that as there had been a big
increase during the year in the amount
of currency in circulation, he could not
see why the law should be changed SO
that this increase should be further en-
larged
Since his talk with the President. how

change his mind. He hastily made the
trip to the Long Island home OF the

known. but which was really message
from the President calling him TO con-
ference. Then, il Is said. the President

KEEPERS At THE zoo
WORKED OVERTIME
Have to Be on Duty on
Sundays and Holidays.
TEN WORKING HOURS DAILY
DR.. Baker, the Superintendent, Says
Keepers Can Quit if They
Don't Like the Job.

rather unusual demand upon the
keepers of the Geological Park has been
revealed in the limelight OF public eriti-
cism which recently threw a slanting
ray upon the affairs of the institution.
Adverse comment has been created by
the fact that this staff OF workmen. in
order to draw their wages and retain
their positions. are compelled to work
on Sunday and holidays, while the other
employees of the place are not SO con-
fined.
Twelve keepers ere employed at the
park. They are under command OF w H.
Blackburne. The salary of the men
varies from s45 to $50 a month The
workday begins at 1890 O'Clock in the
morning 1t. ends from to 8 O'Clock in
the afternoon.
Workday of Ten Hours
This makes the average day ter hours
in length. Only twice a month is each
man given the Sunday as a day OF rest.
Sometimes even that is not allowed.
On the other hand, the remainder OF
the employees, nearly forty in all, in
Guiding watchmen, laborers. carpenters.
groundkeepers. clerks, etc. have to
work only from s O'Clock in the morning
until about in the afternoon. Unless by
special order they do not go near the
park for business purposes on Sunday.
On an average their salary Is higher
than that of the keepers.
This condition has evoked the criticism
OF those acquainted with the facts, who
believe that a remedy should be found
Immediately. The working schedule is
looked upon as unjust. and is severely
condemned
When DR.. Frank Baker, superintendent
OF the Park. was questioned concerning
these conditions. he angrily replied that
there was no reason for him to answer
the questions Of a newspaper reporter.
DR.. Baker Objects.
You reporters have no business to
ask such questions" he said
rs 1t true. however. that the keepers
are compelled to work seven days in the
week."
"'of course it's not; we compel no one
to work. II they don't wish to submit
to the regulations of the park they can
step out"
Then. in order TO draw their salary
and retain their positions, are they com
PEELED to work?''
There's no reason why / should an
swer that question: he replied angrily.
DR.. Baker admitted. however, that the
men were compelled 10 work on Sunday,
but said each man was given a day off
for all extra duty.
In spite OF this statement, a days
respite for work for the keepers at the
Zoo does not come frequently.
