ArbitfAte Demands OF Other 1rade9.
John B. Mcdonald. the general con-
tractor for tho subway. is trying to make
an arrangement with the unions con-
cerned In the building Of the tunnel to
Brooklyn similar to that between the Rapid
Transit contractors and the Central Fed
Grated Union. Though the Central Fed
Grated Union made a mistake In indorsing
the demands Of the Rookmen's and Exca-
vators Union, its agreement with the con-
tractors still holds, and joint meeting
will be held on June to consider the de-
mands of the unions Which desire to change
the prevailing rates OF wages.
The Italian laborers' union, recognition
Of which has been refused by the Rapid
Transit contractors. has in its turn refused
TO recognize tho G. F. U. When q com
mittee Of the strikers called on the RAND
Transit contractors last week the COM
mittee was told that the contractors would
only negotiate through the G. F. U. COM
mittee.
Chairman Pallas Of the c. F. U. Rapid
Transit Committee made report yesterday
on Rapid Transit matters, but did not
mention the strike. He said that 80
subway had notified the committee Of q
desire to revise the prevailing rates Of
wages on June 4. 1t was decided to notify
the unions again to let the committee know
Of any changes they want to make.
Delegate Casalla Of the Rockmen and
Excavators' Union said that its strikers
would make no more attempts to send
committees to the rapid transit contractors.
He also said he did not believe that the
contractors were getting ~ tho men they
needed.
Special police arrangements will be made
to-day along the line OF the tunnel, as well a.
in Little Italy. to prevent disturbances in

DANGERS or UNIONISM.
Clarence o. Darrow Says They Arc Run or
the Principles OF Trusts.

CHICAGO, May "a The principles OF
labor organizations, as now being managed,
and those Of the trusts and huge business
cancellations are the same. according TO
Clarence s. barrow. who lectured at Handel
Hall this afternoon on THE Peril OF Trades
Unionism" He said that the only solution
Of the impending crisis in industrial affairs
throughout the world is for tho unions to
discontinue building up the trade mono
poles on the one hand and a labor monopoly
on the other and to 60 into politics to secure
just law and establish conditions that will
make 1t more difficult for those poss essing
wealth to increase IT.: Public ownership Of
commodities and utilities and the elimina-
ton of the employer was the keynote Of
the address.
-Only one way exists to reach this evil
Of monopoly he said, Aand that Is to take
possession OF 1t. No few can be allowed
to own the coal, the iron. the forests or the
various other commodities and necessities
Of life; 80 the energy Of unionism must be
applied In securing these things for the
people at large, the great mass OF whom are
neither capitalists nor members OF trade
unions.
He reviewed the rapid growth Of trades
unionism and said It was now In greater
danger Of its existence than in the days
when 1t was more obscure.
Present attempts to raise wages Mr..
Darrow characterized as the natural result
ends gained along that line were artificial
and Of little good. He presented an end
less-chain illustration showing how,
When wages are raised. the price OF
commodities Immediately goes up, causing
another demand for an Increase In wages,
another raise in prices. and 80 on indefinitely.
with the odds In the game against the work.
man, because the man controlling the corn
modities could advance his prices moro
rapidly than the workman could get his
wages increased.
The speaker said he was not oondemning
that trades unionism, but that 1t was simply
a means to an end and the important thing
was to di eoover the real end, and then
throw all the energy Of the organization
toward obi aiming It.

Cox now believes that Mr.. Roosevelts

since he failed to get the gubernatorial
nomination. has opposed Hanna. Another

almost unanimously in favor Of Roosevelts

question before the convention.
Senator Hanna's reasons for opposing
the resolution have been given, and not
Mithstanding his repeated denials that he
will not be candidate the sincerity OF these
declarations is questioned. Nearly all the
State officials are suppo rting Mr.. Hanna.

The delegate Of the Millers' Union re-
ported yesterday to the Central Federated
Union that the millers are on strike in all
OF the -four mills Of the Hecker-Jones-Jewell

union men.
A resolution was adopted ordering the
fremen to support the millers.
In the course OF the discussion the dele
gate OF the millers said that ten .niggers"
had been put to work in place Of some
OF the strikers. There is a colored dele
gate in the C. F. U. Looking hard at him,
Delegate Lord Of the Steam Filters Union
said
1T isn't right to talk this way. There is
no use in insulting oolored men by calling
them niggers.'
The chairman declared the point we'll
taken, and the negro delegate made a
speech to the effect that trades unionism
knew neither race nor color He was ap-
plauded.
The delegate of the Millers' Union re-
marked that the girls In the cereal depart
ment who were not organized, had re-
fused to work with colored men.
