brotherhood OF Painters Asked to Foot
the Bill for Decreased wages.

Judge Alfred s. Skinner and jury, in
the Court Of Common Pleas, at New ark,
yesterday, heard testimony in the suit
for 5000 brought by William F. Franks
against the Brotherhood Of Painters. Deco
rators and Paperhangers Of America.
Franks was expelled from the organization
and sues to recover for loss OF time which
ensued as the result Of his expulsion. His
counsel is Chauncey H. Beasley. Joseph A.
Beecher appeared for the defendants.
There was much trouble In getting a
Jury, because every talesman was closely
questioned as to whether he belonged
to O trade organization. Mr.. Beasley in
opening the case, said that his client was a
paperhanger by trade, an expert at 1t, and
cation was so powerful, he added, that he
was compelled to Join 1t in his own interest,
and then went to work for A. A. Sippel,
In Market street, paying his dues regularly.
Then came strike, and the men went out
Mr.. Beasley further informed the jurors,
he secured the right from the union to do
private work. but was driven out OF the
order nevertheless. From that time to this
he tried to get regular work, but could not
do 30, and the result was that his inc ONE
had been reduced one-half.
Mr.. Beecher asked Judge Skinner for n
nolle prosequi upon the ground that the
court had no jurisdiction. The man had
q fair trial within his organization, and II
he had any recourse In court Of law it
was by mandamus.
Mr.. Beasley insisted that he was prepared
to show that his client had no trial and was
illegally expelled.
Mr.. Franks was the first witness. He
said that he joined the union in 1902. He
showed card to prove his membership
after Mr.. Beecher had objected and said
that he was never o member of the organi-
zation. He testified that he attended
meetings and was q member in good stand
ing until expelled in October last, earning
an average OF $50 a week. Since his ex-
pulsion. no said his wages had been de-
creased one-half. The session closed with
Franks on the stand.
Franks's troubles have occupied the at
tention of the courts for a year in various
forms. There have been trials for threat
ened assault upon him and complaints for
designating him as @soab.' Suit was
brought in the Court Of Chanoery to com
pei the, union to relnstate him, but Vice
cause the papers had not been properly
presented.

went to the President last Saturday after
the rehearing Of the case by Acting Score
tary Of the Treasury Taylor.
Mr.. Shaw has been on q campaigning
trip in the far West for some time and did
not expect to return to Washington until
after the election. Mr.. Roosevelt, how
ever, found questions connected with the
cigar stamp matter that made 1t desirable
for him to consult with the Secretary.
A few weeks ago Assistant s eoretary
Armstrong, who is In charge of the Gus
toms administration, ordered that the de-
sign and color Of the import stamp used
on boxes Of foreign cigars be changed.
In so doing he recognized as valid the argu-
m ents OF the independent manufacturers
Of cigars In the United States, who main
tanned that the conspicuous stamp was
serving as an aOVerulS6meut OF cigars
made In Havana and which are controlled
by the tobacco trust. as against equally
good Cuban cigars manufactured by Ameri-
can workmen in the United States. The
order to have the stamp changed brought
forth bitter protest from the American
Tobacco Company and an appeal to the
President for n rehearing
The order for the change In the stamp
was signed by Mr.. Armstrong as Acting Sec
rotary Of the Treasury, and the Depart
ment has therefore committed itself on
the question. The only way the order
can be changed Ia for the President to over
rule it, and this would be an unusual action.
Secretary Shaw has notified the Presi-
dent that he will arrive in Washington on
