rented to the finance committee of Council

Controller Dunn, the members of the COM
mittee and Drs. Reyer and Courtney. of the
Board of Health, at the mayors office yes

Mayor Hoffman announced last night
that he will bring this matter before the
finance committee in a few days. 1t was
his intention to discuss the needs of the
City Hospital and the necessity of a special
appropriation of several thousand dollars
to make immediate repairs with the COM
mittee yesterday, but the pesthouse ques-

Atlas Employees Laid or.

On account of a slack in business, many
employees of the Atlas engine works nave
been released within the past month. Dur
ing the last two weeks almost one hun
dred men. most of whom were day labor

official says, depends upon the amount of

LABOR TROUBLE FINDS 1T WAY INTO
APPELLATE COURT.
Furniture Dealers Complain of the
Action of Amalgamated Wood
Workers of America.

An appeal from the Vanderburg Supe-
rior Court was filed in the Appellate Court
yesterday afternoon by the Karges Furni-
ture Company, OF Evansville. seeking dam
ages for a strike, called by local union No.
125 of the Amalgamated Wood Workers of
America in Evansville. and at the same
time attempting to establish a rule whereby
labor unions and their officers may be en-
joined from calling a strike or taking meas
ures to continue Ii, by showing that serious
injury is threatened and has been done to
the plaintiffs property and business by the
strike.
In April the local union of the Amalga-
mated Wood Workers Of Evansville de-
manded a Is per cent. increase of the furni-
ture companies of the city and a nine-hour
day. Upon the refusal of the employers
to grant the demands a strike was called
and, although only a dozen or the plain
tiff's rs men were union men, the entire
force was persuaded to walk out o. the
strikers. The company claims that 1T does
business In almost every State of the Union
and Is under contract TO furnish a great
deal of furniture, but because of the strike
is unable to fill contracts and is hence los
ing a great deal of money. The attitude
of the strikers, it is claimed, has bordered
on violence and the c~ompany's store is sur
rounded by pickets. who shout "scab" and
lOOl 10 dl lie new Ulcu tudl are OIOuSuL

The Superior Court granted IN Injunction
against about fifteen of the strikers who
were guilty of violence and misconduct.
but gave judgment for costs in favor of
the union, its officers and all the strikers
who had taken part in the open conflicts.
The printed brief filed by the appellants
yesterday contains 100 pages. Among many
other things aimed at unions, 1t states:
Whatever may be said In favor of or
ganiZed labor. the fact remains that their
modes of conducting strikes and interfer-
ing with the invested capital Of the coun-
try. will the right Of each man to earn his
living and conduct his business according
TO his own views, within legal limits have
served TO vindicate the wisdom of the COM
mon law, to show that all attempts to sub
stitute any expedient in its stead falls short
Of accomplishing any permanent good to
society. When the bill of rights
was up for consideration the uppermost
thought was TO protect the weak from the
aggressions of the strong, the poor and
needy, the wage-earner from the oppres-
sion of the rich. *ss 1t Is most remark
able that the very class whose protection
was thus uppermost in the minds of our
forefathers should themselves combine TO
overthrow this very law-to substitute the
coercion and oppression of labor unions.
not against their employers only, but
against their fellow-servants-those of their
own class. The law must be upheld
and enforced"

INALCONFERENCE TODAY
MAYOR AND CITY OFFICIALS WILL
DISCUSS PEsTHOUsE SITE.
Location Under Consideration Visited
"A Temporary Structure May Be
B~uiIt-City Affairs.

Mayor Hoffman, City Controller Dunn
President Downing. of the Board of Works.
and the member Of the Council finance
committee probably will take final action
on the ~pesthouse question at a meeting TO
be held at the mayors Office some time to-
day. and decide upon what recommendation
TO make TO Council next Monday night.
1t is understood that the mayor and the
president of the Board of Works favor
the plan to purchase about twenty acres
of the proposed site near the point where
Fall creek empties into White river. This
tract is south of Tenth street and west
of the City Hospital. The land is held at
81, 900 an acre. The administrators plan is
to build a temporary ~pesthouse or deten-
ton hospital there and put up a permanent
structure next spring to cost 500 % or s12.-
600. The conference at the mayors office
to-day will be to determine whether 1t Is
advisable for the city to expend $40. ZOO or
more at this time for a pesthouse site. The
city has but $1,000 which could be used to
purchase the site. The remainder will have
to be obtained by a special appropriation.
Messrs. Dunn, Downing and Captain Mad
den, president Of the Board Of Public
Safety, and Councilmen Casper, Rhoades
and Fishback, of the Council finance COM
mittee, inspected the proposed site west of
the City Hospital end south of Tenth street
and the old ~pesthouse site north of the
hospital yesterday afternoon.
Nothing definite was decided at the con-
ference OF Mayor Hoffman, Controller
Dunn, Drs. Reyer and Courtney, of the
Board of Health. and Messrs. Casper, Grail,
Rhodes, Fishback and Shea and President
Madden, of the Board of Safety, at the
mayors Office yesterday morning. A deci-
sion as to what should be TO
Council about the pesthouse was postponed
SO that those who had not inspected the
sites under consideration could do so in the
afternoon.
Il cannot tell yet what will be lone with
this matter" said the mayor last night.
TT matter was not disposed of at our
conference this morning. / shall have a re-
port tomorrow from the city officials and
the councilmen who visited the sites this
afternoon"
1--WE want to decide definitely as soon as
| possible what shall be done in. the matter"
said Joseph l.. Casper, chairman of the
finance committee. whether 1t is advis-
able for the city to spend $4,000 for a site
| for the pesthouse at this time 1 canno say.
This is one Of the questions to be discussed
at the conference with the mayor to-mor-
row."

AGREED ON AS PRESIDENT.
With the thorough understanding that
Mr.. Barnes stood with them. was one with
them in the fight for the rights of the peo-
pie, the new directors agreed to cast their
votes for him for president, something they
certainly would not have done had it been
limited tina he would support the Frenzel-
Lyman combination. Mr.. Barnes finally &C
cepted the plan. The treasurership was
next IN discussion. Mr.. Lilly's name was
put forward and was generally approved.
Mr.. Barnes being foremost in his indorse-
ment. 1t was agreed TO cast their votes for
Mr.. Lilly, the feeling being that the Fren-
zel's had had the custody or the companys
funds long enough.
AS to where these funds should be de-
posted by the new treasurer. the new di-
rectors and Mr.. Barnes expressed little in
terest. Major Richards, speaking for the
Union National Bank, stated that he did not
care for them, and would not move a finger
TO have them placed with his institution.
Mr.. Barnes then said that he did not want
them for the Columbia National, and Mr..
Hervey Bates. for the American National.
remarked that he would not try TO secure
them for that bank. Into all these discus
sions Mr.. Barnes entered as one of the body,

attitude was convincing to the directors,
who left the conference feeling that they
had a working majority and would be able
to save the Consumers Gas Trust Com
pany for the people If IL were within the
power OF human beings 10 accomplish the
task.
The stand taken by Mr.. Barnes in the
meeting of the directors was like the burst
ing OF a bombshell over their heads. When
he was placed in the presidents chair by
the votes OF the men with whom he had
agreed IN everything a few hours previous
~. he not only voted against the motions of
his late confrereS. but he urged from the
chair against their propositions.
These reasons are advanced for the neces-
sity OF Mr.. Barnes resigning. The feeling
is that he should resign voluntarily, rather
than at the request of the board OF trustees.
The board Will have its next meeting next
Tuesday afternoon at the offices OF the Con-
sumers' Gas Trust Company. Fred Fahnley

the aid OF the vote OF Mr.. Barnes, and the

neys from out of the city 10 report on the
