In the account OF one OF the meetings
among the labor people this week. on
Wednesday afternoon. one OF the after
noon publications made use OF the state
ment that the Allied Printing Trades
council had appointed committee 10
draft new contract, whereby a publioa-

granted II.
The president and several OF the mem
bers and officers OF the body state that
this was not the case But that during
the meeting there was an argument on
the part OF the delegates from the craft
which had the largest hand IN injuring a
young organization I'm the beginning OF
it's life fought for the destruction OF the
same. though claiming 10 be staunch
unionists.
The contract committee was instructed
10 draft a new document. but this was
TO apply TO all the publica tions OF the
city and not TO any special one. for IL
was not the intention OF the body 10 dis
criminate in favor OF the publication
mentioned In any particular The state
ment published was misleading and the
officers desire the true conditions to be
made known.

The executive board Of the Bartenders'
union met last evening for the discus

visited and the proprietor found opposed

found that the union bar card that was
shown IN the place was one OF the old
ones obtained no one knew how. and
therefore alleged to have been gotten by
some means unknown 10 the body.
When he was asked to release the sign
he refused. with the result mentioned.
The body decided 10 take other means

nights OF the month the meetinsg among
the labor people were very few Aside
from the moulders meeting there were
but two others. the hoistng engineers
and a special session OF the car workers

than the ordinary routine business.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST.
The bakers are about TO get busy or
ganizing hte candy makers OF the city.
This is one branch OF the craft that needs
organization badly for there are a num-
I bZer Of the wurkmen IN the city who
ought 10 make one OF the strongest locals
and they are seemingly ripe for perfec-
ton.
Tonight the Hebrew Bakers will be per-
