A Meeting is Being Held
in Chicago for That
Purpose
OBJECTS OF ORGANIZATION
iiationai Association of Employers is
Now Holding it's Second Annual
Seeson-lmpor Mt Matters
Discu sed.

| Chicago, ILL.,, Z, 10-Prlmi ary
steps were taken Chicago toay to
trGGni1e IL ha: "a i federation OF
local employers association in
the building lines In the opinion
Of those we'll informed as to the pur-
pose and scope of the movement its
! Importance can scarcely be overeSti-
+ mated. In plain words it aims to curb
the excessive exaction of the labor
unions, from which tn building trad
es have suffered of late perhaps more
than any other line. Other objects,
such as the standardization of material
and the suppression of unfair com
petition, will be kept in view by the
new organization, but all OF these will
be of secondary Importance in compar-
ison with the main purpose of advanc-
ing and protecting the interests OF the
contractors in their relations to the
labor unions.
The idea of the National Association
OF Employers, under which name the
federation is to be known, had its in
ception in the formation of the Bald
ing Trades Employers Association in
New York last spring Nothing OF
tle kind on so large scale had ever
been achieved in any city in this coun-
t"y and all the cities which had been
disturbed by labor conflicts watched
| TIE outcome. Soon similar aassocia-
tons were formed in other cities and
the idea Of national federation was
the result. Represented in the fed
GRAFTON are the following trades:
Architectural iron, elevator building,
plasteripg, house drainage, mantle and
tile work, masons and builders, plumb
cutters, marble manufacturers, paint
ers, decorators, MOSAIC work and cleo
t1ical work.
The object of the organization, as
set forth in til ecall for today's confer
ence are as follows:
To advance and protect the inter
ests of tie contractors.
To secure equitable treatment in
their dealings with their employees.
To encourage organization and the
formation of associations Of contract
ors.
To reeulate conditions among build
ing contractors.
To n aintain peace and harmony
between he employer and employe.
The basis of settlement OF all dis
putes sl4culd be Cancellation and ar
b.tratior,
The sympathetic strike should be
aosoutey prohibited.
Where conditions are proper ana
emploX5s' associations exist agree
n ent to De made with them.
A uniform form of agreement be
alopted and used is making joint
agreements, wages being adjusted ac-
c)rding to local cor itions.
All agreements tc embody the fol
lowing principles:
There Shall be nc estriction OF the
Use of machinery or ools.
There snail be No restriction ot the
use of fny mani ictured matt ial.
Except rrison-made,
No person shall ave the righ. to

More Room Needed.

Acting Secretary of the Navy Darling
had conference with Surgeon-General
Rixey, of the Navy, about the alleged
lack of hospital facilities at the Naval
Academy for caring for the midshipmen
in the event of an epidemic. Atemporary
addition to the sick quarters is now nearly
completed, but it seems this does not
meet the approval OF all the officers of
the Navy Department. Acting Secretary
Darling will send for Super ntendent
Brownson, of the Naval Academy, to
talk the matter over with him. The Act
ing Secretary does not think the situation
is one to warrant alarm, although there
are now at the Naval Academy six hum
dred and ffty-hve midshipmen.

Work Completed

completed the work on the handsome
eight-room cottage for Mr. VIM. Schwal-
lenberg at Germantown. The cottage is
well built and the work is credit to the
contractor. Mr.. Lloyd has also nearly
completed the three frame dwelling
houses of Mr.. Harry Elliott. on Jefferson
street. This street is greatly improved by
this addition. and ii hoped by the prop
erty owners that the city will give them
some consideration in the near future.
The street needs curbing for sidewalks.
besides little grading here and there.
The city authorities should, by all means,
place an arc light at the corner of Hill
and Jefferson streets.

MISSING FROM HOME.
Charles A. Disney, of The Fifth
District, Mysteriously
Disappears.

Mr.. Charles A. Disney, thirty-five
years of age. son of the late w. J.
Disney. of Dorsey's, in the Fifth district.
has disappeared mysteriously. Every
effort has been made to locate Mr.. Disney.
but without success.
Mr.. Disney is The last of his family,
He has been i'll for some time. and was
placed in a hospital for treatment. Re-
covering sufficiently, he was released
some months ago. but recently has again
been attacked with illness. and it is
thought that fears of again being obliged
to go to the hospital had caused him to
leave home and conceal his whereabouts.
A number of theories have been adj
vanced for Mr.. Disney's disappearance,
chief among which is that he has ended
his life, or has been murdered. He left
his home on last Tuesday and nothing
has been heard from him since.
