MRS, PLUMMER, IN RECITAL,
PLEASES At PROPyLAUM
Soprano Solos of Goshen Artistic
Elicit Much Applause from
Music Lovers.
ENDS WITH SONG CYCLE

An enthusiastic audience was entertained
at the Propylaeum last night by one of the
most delightful recitals that has been given
there this season. The Central College of
Music presented Mrs. Beatrice Hubble
Plummer soprano, of Goshen, in the third
faculty recital.
Mrs. Plummer contributed every number
on the programme and was accompanied at
the piano by Miss Carrie Hyatt. Mrs. Plum
mer's voice is one of sweetness and sympa-
thetic quality, but strong and full. Her
range is sufficient to encompass the most
difficult compositions as we'll as simple
songs and ballads. Perhaps the most sur
prising quality Of Mrs Plummers voice is
its volume, which completely filled the large
auditorium.
At the same time her voice is sweet and
clear and capable of the finest infection.
The programme was in four parts and of
some length. Part l consisted of the rendi-
ton of "Cavatine' lin English), from Gar
men," Part III was made up of selections
from the compositions of Rubinstein, Schu-
mann, Fontaneles, Meyer Helmund, Hill
dach and Liza Lehman, three of them in
German.
Introductory to Part III, Mrs. Plummer
read a few notes on the compositions OF
Mcdowell, from Henry T. Fincks lectures,
paying the highest possible tribute to this
American composer, and followed the read
ing with the rendition of three songs by
MacDowell-"Thy Beaming Eyes The
Robin Sings in the Apple Tree, and The
Sea" The latter song was characterized
in the notes read by Mrs. Plummer as the
best song written by MacDowell, the best
song ever written by an American and one
of the hundred best songs written by all
Other composers represented in Part III

.SHIPLOAD OF EASTER

New York.

NEW YORK, March 22.-The first steam
ship load of Easter lilies has arrived here
from Bermuda. This consignment was
mainly for the far West. and as soon as the
vessel locked express vans transferred the
flowers to the railroad stations, and they
were started to their destinations. There
were thousands of crates in the cargo, re-
curing the most delicate handling 1t is
expected that more of the flowers will be
brought north this year than ever before.
Last years short crop created scarcity and
high prices. but this season the blossoms
are reported abundant.

She Drives Three Horses.

Miss Morosini is the only woman who
has a permit to drive three horses abreast
on the New York speedway. She not only
understands the good points of horses, but
the diseases to which they are subject,
how far and how fast they should be
driven and also how they should be stabbed
and cared for. She owns a number of
horses, and has perfectly appointed stable

The secrets of the toilet, which are partly

are such as can never be revealed to man,
for as long men are men, they can't
understand them, and when woman can be
brought to confess them she becomes I'M

nave revealed some of the principles of the

their sex characteristics in the telling.

TIE big hat craze is at present rlch dis
cussed among millinery people. The streets
abound in shocking examples of the

it last? L believe that the present season
will see some reaction against very large
hats, and the year will see them at least

mittee admits that the seamen are
technically correct; that the action
proposed by the majority report is
equivalent to inviting the International
Longshoremen to go on taking all they
can get, and, while they take seamen
to-day, it may be that they will take
teamsters and streetcar men next"
The minority report was signed by
William Cohen.
Andrew Furuseth said that he was
sorry that granite cutters and car
penters in the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor should
pass upon and adjudicate maritime af-
fairs. He spoke of Duncan and Foster
OF the executive council, and, little
later, Foster paid his attention to
F'uruseth and also to Macarthur and
said that until this morning 1 sup
posed that the executive council of
the American Federation of Labor was
a band of honorable men and did
not find out until Macarthur spoke
that they are band of pirates, armed
to the teeth and sailing under the
black flag, under the leadership of
Commander Keefe of the lakes
Macarthur said 'as a matter Of fact,
the Longshoremen's Association has
already chartered bodies of purely
seafaring, or maritime workers, as, for
instance, marine firemen, engineers,
tugboat men and cooks. Further, the
longshoremen on the Pacific Coast
have formally declared their refusal to
work on board ship with members Of
the Sailors Union Of the Pacific.
These statements are matters of record
and they prove, if proof were needed,
that the name assumed by the long
shoremen is more than a formaIity,
that, in fact, it implies actual juris-
diction over maritime workers and Is
SO understood and intended by the
longshoremen. 1t would be folly upon
our part to ignore the situation thus
presumed and 1t would be a misfor-
tune should this convention fail to
take cognizance of the real, the ma
terial issue now before it,"
The fight waged so hot, many speak
ers taking part, that when 1t was
voted to shut off the debate there were
cries for a roll call from all parts Of
the convention. The contest was
close. the minority report being de-
feated in a poll of 14,754 votes by a
majority of only 704 votes, the vote
being 1925 for and 1929 against. Then

Feeney of Philadelphia was elected
delegate to the Canadian Trade Union
Congress, beating James A. Lavery of
New York.
Pittsburg was selected for the next
place of meeting. The other cities that
tried to get the convention of 1905 were
st. Louis, Mo-; Toronto. Canada, and
Niagara Falls, N. Y. The majority for
Pittsburg was large. One vote was cast
for New York City and two for Porto
Rico.
During the forenoon there was a warm
fight over reports of the committee on
resolutions recommending the rejection
of a resolution introduced by the dele
gates of the Seamen's International I'm
lon that called upon the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor to prevent the Interna-
tional Longshoremen's Association from
using the name or claiming any juris-
diction implied by the title Of Long
shoremen's, Marine and Transportation
Association" There had not been a
hotter struggle since the opening of the
convention.
1t was asserted in the convention by
Vice President Duncan, chairman of
the committee on resolutions, that the
language in the preamble to the reso-
luton was misleading, in that 1t assert
ed that the American Federation had
at a previous convention decided the
case against the International Long
shoremen's Association. The alleged
grievance of the seamen against the
Iongshoremen was that the longshore-
men refuse to work on board ships with
the seamen on the gulf and on the
Great Lakes who have chartered bodies
in these localities.
The majority report of the commit
tee on resolutions advised that a con-
ference should be held to the end that
an agreement might be reached con-
cerning the matters at issue. The
minority report, which was signed by
one member, set forth that the COM

tory. They promised to do as we'll in
the future as they had in the past.
Gompers spoke longer than the others.
He was seemingly affected by the dem
onstration. Delegates asked who is
all right" and answered SANS all
right" If there had been any doubt
that he was still the head Of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor by the choice
of the delegates the doubt was amply
disproved by the manner of his re-elec-
ton and the demonstration that fol-
lowed it.
Il cannot express said Gompers,
what I feel. Anything I can say is de-
ficient in expressing the deep apprecia-
tion of the obligation that am under
for the honor that has been conferred
upon me. Having grown up in the labor
movement, have tried to give the best
there is in me to the trades union
cause If l deserve your good will and
confidence I want to assure you that
that is all the recompense and reward
that I hope for.
Il do not give assurances of what
l will do. l have but one thing in mind.
and that is to advance the cause of
labor aud to give my fellow workmen
the best that is in me.
I'm my report / said that the trades
union movement is not ungrateful. and
gives due credit where such credit be-
longs. If there Is anything due, how
ever, 1t is due by me to labor and not by
labor to me.
Labor has given me the opportunity
of acquiring knowledge and experience
and l want to give in return to the la
Dor movement the result of that ex-
perience and information. I want YOU TO
feel assured after adjournment and go
ing home that when yoe assemble again
in convention Il year from now you
will have no cause for regret that you
have placed this additional confidence
in me. I cannot say more. 1 thank
you"
In addition to the executive council
the convention had to elect fraternai
delegates to foreign countries. John A.
Moffitt of Philadelphia was elected the
first fraternal delegate to the British
Trade Union Congress without contest.
1t was necessary to have roll call to
determine whether Edmund F. Ward of
the brewery workers or James Wood
of San Francisco of the cigarmakers
should be the second delegate. The vote
resulted in the election of Wood. Frank

Samuel Gompers was reelected
president of the American Federation
of Labor yesterday, together with the
incumbent executive council. which
embraces eight vice presidents, secre-
tary and treasurer. Gompers received
all the votes of the convention with
the sole exception Of that of Victor
L. Berger, editor of a Socialistic jour
nal published at Milwaukee.
By vote of the convention the sec
retary was instructed to cast one bal
for each of the following named vice
presidents: James Duncan of the
Granite Cutters, John Mitchell of the
United Mine Workers, James O'Con-
nell of the Machinists Max Morris of
the Retail Clerks Denis A. Hayes of
the Glass Bottle Blowers Association
and Daniel j. Keefe of the Tobacco
Workers.
Frank Morrison, the secretary, and
John B. Lennon. the treasurer. were
reelected by the casting of one bal
lot for each, under the conventions
direction.
For the positions of fifth and eighth
vice presidents there were aspirants
other than the officers of last year, but
the old officers easily won out. For
third vice president Thomas 1. Kidd
and Joseph c. Bahlhorn were nomi-
mated On the rollcall Kidd received
1879 votes to 1859 for Bahlhorn.
For the office of eighth vice president
ii was. necessary to call the roll twice.
On the first call the vote was as fol-
lows William ]. Spencer of Chicago

who had 1894 votes to 3204 for Sher-

first rollcall.
This completed the membership OF
the executive council of the American
Federation of Labor for another year.
The official board was returned to
office without exception and this was
considered by the delegates to have
carried with it Endorsement Of the
policy of Gompers and his official
associates.
Gompers received the greatest
demonstration. Chairs were beaten
on the floor. boot heels thumped Wig
orously, hands clapped. handkerchiefs
waved and the lungs of the more
uproarious taxed to their limit.
Gompers was naturally the central
figure. He did not Immediately re-
spond to calls for speech.
After the vote had been cast by
the secretary for Gompers for presi-
dent, Victor L. Berger arose. For
time it was impossible for him to
make his voice heard above the din
Finally he was heard to say that he
desired to 20 on record as against the
election of Gompers.

the convention voted to have the roll
called to decide whether the majority
report Of the committee on resolutions,
advising a conference between the Ia
boring men principally concerned IN
the matter, should be adopted. The
two roll calls took UP so much time
that no announcement of the result
was made until the evening session Of
the convention The final decision was
to turn down the majority report
S434 to 6952.
To the executive council was left the
consideration of a resolution to OBTAIN
time allowance for the men in the Mare
Island Navy Yard. A resolution was
adopted thanking the citizens Of San
Francisco, especially the union men
and women and the press. for courtesfes.
The local committee came in for praise.
The Building Trades Alliance was re-
ported to be in harmony with trade un-
ionism, and affiliation was recommend
ed. Laws were suggested by the COM
mittee on building trades to preserve
the lives and limbs of men employed in
building.
Just before adjournment President
Gompers addressed the convention and
said: I'VE desire to thank the citizens
Of San Francisco and California for
hospitality, entertainment and encOur-
agement during the convention. The
discussions have at times been very
heated, but at all times exceedingly in
teresting, and do not doubt but that
better feeling pervades the Federation
than existed before the convention.
Il am sure that the manner in which
the delegates conducted themselves has
won for our movement golden opinions

ago a newspaper reporter showed me a
telegram from Washington in which 1t
was stated that an effort would be
made by some members Of Congress to
deny the right Of Government employees
TO organize. I was asked to express an
opinion, and want to say now that I
do not believe that any legislator OF
either branch of the Government Sc
riously entertains any such idea, and
that 1t is probably a pretense on the
part Of antagonists.
'I believe that express your senti-
