ID UPLlFT THE NEGRO
PLANS OF THE SOCIOLOGICAL
 SOCIETY.
Resolutions Declare Colonization, Repatriation and Segregation as Solutions of Problem are
 Unworthy of Consideration.

Washington, Nov. 12.-The National So- o,olo0ical Society to consider the race nrohiem which has been in session here since last Monday and which has been attended by students of the problem from different parts of the country. closed its sessions to-day by the adoption of se- ries of resolutions on the subject.
 A mixed special commission of six members three, from each race, was created to carry the plans and conclu- sions into effect, to lay the matter be- fore Congress; to gather material, and to aid as a permanent body in the solution of the race problem.
 The three members of the committee selected are the Rev. Dr. Dean Richmond Babbitt rector of the Church of the Epiphany. Brooklyn. the Rev. pr. Mayo of Boston. and George Gorham of Wash ington. The colored members of the com mission are Jesse Lawson. president or the Sociological Society; Professor Kel- ly-Miller and Daniel Murray of Wash ington.
 This commission is to cooperate with any commission which may be appointed by the Federal government, and to as- sist in keeping facts, plans, arguments and efforts for the solution of the race problem, before the general pubic ana efore the government.
 The resolutions adopted declare that II is the duty of the government to anord adequate and equal protection to eacn and every citizen in the full enjoyment of every right guaranteed by the constl- tuition and by the laws of the land and that the perpetuity of .-.e republic IS de- pendent on fidelity to this princlplei lha' under our form of government there can be no recognition of a master class ana a subject class, nor can the government countenance the idea of master race and a subject race, but must regard ana treat all as equals in the eyes of the law.
 Other resolutions say; We deprecate mob violence which we believe destroys the respect for orderly government, and we depIore those crimes that are alleged in excuse for such violence
 .As solutions of the race problem, we regard coloniza ton. expatriauon and se- gregation as unworthy of further eonsid- eration. We recognize that in the limits of the former slaves State, through State authorities and through many Southern friends the common school system has

REPORT ON WAGES
CENSUS BUREAU GIVES OUT
 SOME FIGURES.
Highest. Amounts Paid for Labor in the Pacific States and the Low
 est in This Section of Il ..., VI the, Nation.

g, washington, Nov s12--The Censis Blu reau to-day promulgated "a report on wages of employees in manufacturing es- tablishments in the. United States. From the actual pay rolfs, of f72o manufacturing establishments employing in 1900 about 25O. 900 employees. 3oi different occupations in thirty four industries have been tabu- lated. 5i !.
 In the cotton manufacturing industry between 1890 and 1900 wages of both men and women increased in the New England States, but showed little change in the South. There was an increase of wages of both men and women in the woolen industry in New England.
 In dying and finishing textiles, there was an increase for males in the New Eneland States and decrease in the Mid dle States. For females there was little change. Wages in carpet and knitting mills show little change.
 In the agricultural implement occupa- tions involving. mainly the central States. increases of wages have occurred with few exceptions. Wages in furniture fac tories declined in the Middle. States. Slight increases are reported in the lum- Der and blaming mills in Central and Pa cihc States. Rates in car shops fell. In the foundries and metal working indus tries there appears to have been little variation in rates Wages are highest in the Pacific and lowest in the Southern States.
 The report gives returns from blast fur naces pudding furnaces. rolling mills, Bessemer converters and open hearth fur naces owing to the prevalence of turn or tour of duty Tn this industry the rates given are for two weeks work instead of a single week. In the MIudle States the Middle half were paid at rates from $15 to $27 in 1900. and from sl5 to $2S in 1890 for the two weeks work; in the Southern States the middle range at both periods is from SIS to s26: and in the Central States at both periods the rates are about the same the middle half ranging from $21 to $30 in 1900. and from $21 to $31 in 1890. Wages in bakeries showed little change. Wages in breweries indicate an increase during the decade.
 Cigar factory wages are practically unchanged in Ne England. but consider ably higher in the Middle States. Cloth ing factories indicate a decrease for men and a less marked decrease for women. Glass factory rates have increased and flour mill wages show practically no change. Wages were lower in the leath- CT trade. as machinery largely displaced skilled hand labor. The tobacco industry in the South shows little change.

SLAIN BY THE TURKS
SULTAN'S TROOPS MASSACRE
 ARMENIANS.
Cold -blooded Butchery is Alleged in Advices From Asia Minor Received by a Pitts
 burg Man.

Ptttsburg, Nov 12.-Ara B. ChutjiG n, now a resident of Pittsburg. the younger brother of Rev. O. B. Chutjian, who was murdered on the streets of Odessa, Rus sia, last June, and leader of the local Huntschagonist revolutionary branch of the Armenian Patriots, today received ad- vices of another massacre by Turkish sol diers of bands of Armenians in Asia M'- nor. The butoheries occurred, according to MT. Chutjian about eight days ago in the city of Bazayid. province of Erze- roum. In discussing the assassinatiors MT. Chutjian said
 ''The first band of Armenians which was about one hour in advance of the second band. was attempting to reach Asia Mi nor from Russian domain, in order to af- ford some relief to the suffering Armenian farmers in that territory It was made up of some fifteen members. Entrance from Russian to Turkish domain is ob- tainable only by means of two passes, each fortified by strong block houses.
 "The Turkish soldiers were informed that the advance body of the relief band was coming and the information was fur nished by member of the opposition par ty of our society. When the band ar rived at the blockhouse all were killed in cold blood. It was simply a cold-blooded butchery. The second band halted some distance from the frontier, fearing that their friends had fallen into the hands of the Turkish soldiers. The latter went out to meet the second expedition and killed many of them. Much money and everything intended for Armenian relief was conhscated by the Turkish soldiers"
 MT. Chutjian explained today that the Armenian relief parties from Russian provinces simply desired to aid suffering Armenians in the Mount Ararat district. owing to the heavy crop failure last sea son
 The Turkish soldiers on the frontier re- fuse to allow any aid to reach the in- terior so Mir. Chutjian says.

STEEL TRADE OUTLOOK
EXPLANATION OF THE EXIST
 ING CONDITIONS.
Reduction in Billets and Bars Will Be Beneficial-Prices of Other Finished Products Are
 Normal.

Pittsburg, Nov. 12.-Two clearly ex- pressed explanations of the conditions that are confronting the steel trade of this country. the one affecting the cur rent prices and the other the more serious question of wage reductions, were made today by one of the high officials of the Jones and Laughlin Steel Company.
 BrisAy outlined, the reductions in bil- lets and bars were made after the whole situation was gone over and 1t was seen that the trade undoubtedly would be ben efited by such a change. In the discus sion over the other finished lines of steel, such as plates, rails, structural shapes, etc., 1t was hown that during the past month or six week trade had shown such marked signs of improvement that there was no occasion for alarm and no reason for changing the present prices which are normal.
 Reports that there would be further meetings of steel pools in New York were discredited by those local authorities. New business is booked at a close figure especially with billets at the new price of $23 ton and the manufacturers re- alike that the present wage rate is toe high for the prices of material.
 It was explained that the reduction of 10 per cent in wages did not mean a fiat slicing of 10 per cent of the daily wages | of the employees of a manufacturing con- | cern. A straight reduction of 10 per cent on the roll of the United States Stee Corporation would compel a cutting out of $12O0OOOO. The day laborer will not | be affected. but every tonnage man will be. The effect on the tonnage man. how ever. will not be in decreasing his earn. ing power but rather by increasing hi: tonnage capacity with improved ma l lNGN .a-I, w.ytII R.I out an increased amount of ,nished stee at a less rate the ton. the total being practically the same as he has always | made.

been established for the colored people, and that with the aid of those friends and Northern help. more than forty col leges there have been founded for the education of the negro. We further rec ognize that these friends appreciate the vast importance of the negro population to the intelligence and industrial pros- peritys of the South.
 We have faith, too. in the unceaslngs 2 intelligence, industry and thrift of the negro, inasmuch as during the past forty years of freedom the negroes have. in spite of adverse circumstances of aEs unusual character, made rapid progress. 4 The records show that that they pay taxes on more than $900. 100000 valuation~ of real estate, besides the aid given to their ecclesiastical and charitable insti- tutions.
 we urge the thorough reorga niZation of the peoples common school in the open country of the South as the only con-b dition for the development of that sec ondary higher and industrial education which should be open to all sorts and conditions of the coming generation. We earnestly urge upon Congress the i'm portance of providing liberal appropria- tions for the National Bureau of Educa- tion to the end that the scope of its work may be enlarged.
 That we are thoroughly alive to the importance of this race problem and be- leve that it Is highly necessary that when settled 1t shall be settled right and to that end we recommend the authori- zation by the national government of ank inquiry into the condition of the colored people of the United States"

cRoz1ER MAKES REPORT.
Experiments to Improve the Military
 Armament

Washington, Nov. 12.-Brigadier Gener- al Crozier, chief of ordnance, has sub mitted his annual report to the chief ot staff of the army. It deals minutely with many experiments to improve the mili- tary armament
 On the subject of the United States, a magazine. rife, General Crozier says that the results obtained from the few which were made by hand were so satisfactory 7aA to secure the approval of the Secre- taTySaf War for the adoption of this pat tern. TfAe reducffoR In the lengths of the barrel from. 30 to 4 inches, General Cro- zier says. met unanimous approval in all arms of the service. The general design and ballistic qualities. of this rife the report says, are markedly superior to those of the present service arm. Gen eral Crozier says that no automatic mus ket of satisfactory mechanical action has been. presented.
 Nor does he think that the experiments with automatic pistols warrant the aban- donment of the present service revolver for any of the types tried. ExperimentS conducted with the sixteen inch gun call ed for in the report of the Notifications board was attended with entire sue cess, the report says. At the fourth round with charge of $40 pounds of a special srnolSeesS powder and 2,400 pound pro- jectile, a velocity of 2,S17 feet a second. with a pressure of 36,700 pounds a square inch was attained.
 f-sf4e adds that the use of smokeless pow der in such large charges was beyond the Experience of the world" and the | demonstration that it would be when so used, follow the same law of burning as with charges of the sizes previously employed is a service to the art of con- Struction of ordnance.
 The heavy armament of the sea coast defense General Crozier reports to be in a satisfactory state of advancement but says that the practice which produces skill in the use of the armament has now an importance greater than that of new installation.
 General Crozier dwels on the import ance of proper defense of our insular possessions. saying: Tt may be that per manent possession of the islands could not be maintained continuously against an enemy that commanded the sea ap- breaches thereto, but in the vicissitudes of war the contingency must be contem- plated of complete disaster during such of common prudence to provide works which should enable a smaller force to hold out against larger one for a time."
 The report says there have been issued to the militia free of charge a total of 69,- 0G3 magazine rifles and 3,6O5 carbnes with accompanying acCoutrements and equip ments aggregating in value $1 269, ,4SS.

A. Townsville, showing the progress of the work in the various States, the ad- dress of Rev. J. William Jones, D. D.. re- garding the Battle Abby fund, the reports of the officers and of the historical com mittee.
 Chaplain Jones said that the funds rais- ed for the Battle Abbey Is about $2O0, ,OOO but more is needed. He spoke earnestly regarding the principles which the Con- federacy sought to establish and the men who died in their defence and who en- husiastically applauded.
 The report of the Historical Committee declared that while the schools of the South until few years ago used biased histories covering the period of the war between the States. the States of Ala bama, Louisiana, Texas, South Caroli- na and Florida now are using unbiased text books; the States of Ten nessee, Kentucky, Missouri and Arkan- sas are divided in this respect and other States are being worked upon with great hope of ultimate success. The constant aim and object of the committee is for ''the truth of history" Reports from various points show that the study of Southern history is being encouraged in Southern schools. Upon motion of Mrs. Richardson of Columbia s. C., 1t was made imperative that all Daughters of the Confederacy. whsn in assembly for business or pleasure. shall rise to their feet when the national air of the Con federacy. Dixie Is sung or played and remain standing until the song or tune Is finished.
