LABOR IS WARNED
AGAINST NEW MOVEMENT
Gompers Says National Pro-
tectiye Union Is Wrong.
WOULD DIVIDE EFFORTS
Dissension and Rivalry Likely to Re-
suit, Hurting the American
Federation.

BY authority of the executive council
of the American Federation of Labor
President Gompers has issued an ad-
dress to the officers and members OF
laborers' protective unions, warning
them against joining the movement for
a national convention TO be held for the
purpose of forming a national protec-
tive laborers' union. In his address he
says:
Il cannot conceive OF any reason why
these people should thus seek to divide
and dismember the labor movement OF
our country. as # is embodied In the
American Federation of Labor. unless,
indeed, II Is by reason of inexperience
and a lack of knowledge OF the needs
Of the great interests they hope to rep
resent, OF through a motive antagonistic
to the welfare of organized labor and
one seeking its destruction
Brethren and co-workers in the cause
Of organized labor. I appeal to you, pay
no heed to these specious and trans
parent proposals to create a spirit of
dissension and rivalry in our ranks, but
let us continue TO adhere to. and believe
in that ancient and abundantly truthful
saying. United we stand; divided we
fall "

Lieutenant General Miles inspired the

WHOLESALE MURDER
PLANNED IN HOSPITAL !?
Belladonna Placed in Water Pitcher
Used by Patients of Tewkes-
bury Institution.

LOWELL. Mass. Oct. 30--On the ex-
planation Of DIR. Drake. acting superin-
tendent at the State Hospital at Tewkes-
bury. that the belladonna poisoning OF
eleven patients on Wednesday, one Of
whom has since died. was the result Of
neither an accident nor negligence on
the part OF either the pharmacist OF the
night nurse. there remains but one con-
clusion. and that is that a wholesale at
tempt at murder was made by a sane
person with a grievance. or an insane
person
To get at the real bottom of this case
a committee of the trustees Of the in
stitution has appointed committee 70
investigate. An important theory ad-
vanced is that belladonna was placed In
a pitcher OF water which was in the
ward. from which the patients drank
after taking their medicines.
Dr. Irish. of the hospital. expresses the
belief that IL was other than an insane
person who committed the rash act.
Il tell you honestly" said DR.. Irish.
I'VE cannot even surmise now how this
has happened. The theory of a whole
sale attempt at murder seems plaus-
ible but we are trying to find some ex-

Fosenen and Bosses in he Anthracite Fields

ers hoped to gain through their union,
namely, the prevention Of petty despot-
ism of foremen and bosses.
According to Mr.. Wright's decision,
this despotism is allowed to continue IN
its worst form, namely. the power to
deprive a man of his means Of liveli-
hood. The foreman and superintend-
ents are not the real employers, as
seems to be taken for granted by Mr.
Wright; they are the agents and sa-
traps of the employers. The object OF
trade unionism, as well as the true spirit
Of an arbitration system, is to get ar

homo responsibility for the treatment OF
employees to the real employers-ths
