work az many hours 90 he likes during
tho day and he violates no law and com,
mits no offence whatever So the brohu
question Is whether q statute which makes
II crime for the master TO permit his SER
want TO do what the servant hGB a perfect
right TO do can be a valid law"
Judge O'Brieu went on 20 declare thar
he could see nothing In the vocation OF
baker which would authorize the beRisla-
ture 20 restrict his freedom Of contract
and that therefore section no was un-
lawful. Laws Of that character, he SAID,
should not escape the scrutiny OF the courts
merely because they are made 10 assume
the guise OF police regulations.
Unlawful discrimination, Judge O'Brien
said was also contained IN the law, In
contraventiOn OF the Federal Constitution.
There was nothing he found, Ia the face
or the manifest operation Of the statute
10 show that II had any relation TO the
public health. The Legislature classified
IL as a labor law and nothing else. Every
labor law, he said, however stringent or
arbitrary, could lie just as well upheld on
the ground that IL IL a health law.
Judge Bartlett. taking the same view,
pointed out that the vocation Of a baker
should not be COMPOUNDED with those that
are well known 10 be dangerous 10 life and
health. The family baker" he said, lis
engaged in the necessary and highly appre-
ciated labor Of producing bread, pies,
cakes and other commodities more CalCu-
lated 10 cause dyspepsia In the consumer
than consumption in the manufacturer.
The effect Of the decision OF the United
States Supreme Court must necessarily
be to deter the Legislature Of this and other
States from enacting special or general
laws restricting the hours of labor, except
where il Is well known that the vocation
u one dangerous to the public health or
be health OF the laborer
Many lawyers and judges declared yes
tei-day that the Washington decision must
be, from it's very nature most important
and era making, but until they had read
its tefms and digested it none would COM
NIT himself b say what its particular effect
might be on present or future labor legis-
lation.

TWO PARK AVENUE CASES.
a.. :. supreme Court Assigns Them for
Hearing Next Week.

Hearing NEXT htehs
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Attomey Ed
ward Winslow Paige, counsel for the New
York Central Railroad, to-day asked the
Supreme Court 10 restore to the docket
for argument the cases Of Alice !. Burrell
and Patrick Kierns against the New York
and Harlem and New York Central Rail
roads. which were temporarily passed over
pending the courts decision In the Muhlker
case announced last Monday.
All three cases involved the same Ques-
tions-whether the railroad companies are
responsible for damages to property on
Park avenue, New York city, due to the
elevation Of the Centrals tracks. By
divided bench the court declared the COM
panies responsible, on the general ground
that il was a violation Of the inalienable
rights Of property TO easements Of light
and air.
MIR. Paige wished, in view Of the import
ance of the questions involved, that the
cases be heard at the present term.
Counsel Blaokman for the opposition,
desired the date set for as late day as
possible, as 1t had been expected that the
two cases would be controlled by the Null
lIeT case.
Chief Justice Fuller assigned them for
hearing at the foot Of the call for Thursday
next, which would bring them up the fol-
lowing week.
Mr.. Paige also announced that he would
ask for a rehearing in the Muhlker case
the same dne, as a new question, involving
another statute Of New York bearing on the
case, would be passed upon.

Employers Sign an Agreement.


A strike Of IS 600 bakers throughout the
United States may result, it was said by
labor men last night, from the decision OF
the United States Supreme Court over

IL the ten hour day demand is refused on
May /. Secretary HsTzbecker is cirUulat-
ing a resolution adopted by the interna-
tiOnal executive board, calling for the
general enforcement Of the ten hour day
on MAY l.
Business Manager George Krebs of
Ba Iers' Union 1914 said yesterday; The
unions will continue TO fight for the ten
hour day, in spite Of all opposition by the
employing bakers or the courts. The
Supreme Court decision will be no setback
TO us. We will continue the ten hour
fight"
Business Agent Robert Urban Of Bakers
Union No. 3 said: We will keep up this
ten hour fight in defiance Of the United
States Supreme Court

PENSION REVIEWERS MUST GO.
They Have the Choice Of Resignation or
Dismissal.


WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE pension ex-
aminers composing the Board OF Review
that passed upon and granted pensions TO
members Of Col. McLane's regiment Of
Erie, Pa, have the choice Of two courses
open 70 them, neither OF which Is very
alluring from their standpoint. They may
either resign or they may wait until they ar
dismissed. No Official action In their cases
has yet been taken by Pension Commits
sioner Warner but they have been informed
that unless they resign their services will be
dispensed with. Commissioner Warner has
reached the conclusion that there Is no
intermediate course open to him.
The following are the members Of the
board, the States from which they were
appointed and the salaries they receive:
Urbano o. Denison of New York, 5000;
James A. Compton Of Ohio, 5000; Manuel
johnson OF New Jersey, 5000; George L.
McWhorter OF New York, 5000; William
L. Dulin OF North Carolina, $3.50; Roland
c. Cheesman Of Pennsylvania, $3.50; vii
liam Hatton Of New Jersey $500; George
p. Meyer Of New York, 81 800; Herbert Il.
Ray OF Wisconsin, 81 800; Ashland Il. Swtg-
get Of Iowa, 81 800.
Six of these ten men are veterans Of the
civil war and all Of them have been In the
service Of the Department for more than
twenty years. Mr.. Denison is the oldest
Of them, having been connected with the
Pension Bureau forty-three years. The
youngest In point of service Is Mr.. Meyer,
who has been In the bureau twenty-five
years.
The offence for which these veterans
Of the Government are to lose their p aces
is reporting fayorably on application for
pensions from men who were members
Of Col McLAne's Erie regiment an organi-
zation that was never mustered into the
service Of the United States. This regiment
Was organized in 1861 when Lincoln's first
call for volunteers went out and II camped
near Pittsburg. Before II could be accepted
Pennsylvania quota was full and after re-
naming in camp for three months the regi-
ment was disbanded. Many Of its members
afterward Joined other regiments and
served throughout the war
Some years ago member OF McIane's
regiment made application for a pension.
based on the service for three months in
camp at Pittsburg, and II was refused. At
that time the status OF the regiment was
fixed 30 far as eligibility TO pensions was
concerned and every member Of the Board
OF Review should have been cognizant OF
the facts. IL was their business 70 know
that the regiment never having been re-
oeived into the service Of the United States
its members we're not eligible TO pensions.

COTTON PRICES.

The action OF the American Cotton
Manufacturers Association asking that
the Department Of Agriculture take no
steps towards publishing a revised June
cotton crop report before the assoea-
tion is gwen hearing in regard to the
matter causes no surprise. says The Sa.
vannah News. A committee Of the as.
ISOLATION is to have conference with
the Secretary Of Agriculture at an ear
ly day.
The manufacturers OF cotton goods
are almost ne deeply interested in the
cotton crop reports as the cotton plan
tiers are. They want the truth respect.

ness when there are vide fluctuations
in the price Of cotton, and when such
fluctuations are frequent the disturb
ances in their business are so great
that they are apt TO suffer heavy losses.
They want stable prices, because
such prices enable them to make and
maintain prices for their products that
yield profit, They are entirely willing
that the cotton growers shall have
fair profit on their crops, and they are
willing to aid them in any way they
can TO obtain such profit, but they
ara againt q condition Of Affairs which
enables the cotton spec ulators to make
the price Of cotton to suit their own
interests.
The manufacturers OF cotton goods
have not been active in the cotton crop
scandal. Indeed, IL newspaper &C.
counts are 10 be relied upon, they have
had nothing whatever to say About il.
Now, however, they are beginning to
awaken to the fact that il the work OF
collecting cotton crop statistics isn't
done honestly they are going to have 4
hard time to keep their mills running.
The inference to be drawn from the
letter which the association has written
to the Secretary OF Agriculture 10 that
the association is satisfied that the
can come nearer giving
the public reliable information about
the cotton crop than any other agency,
The association evidently looks upon
the cotton crop reports Of the Southern
Cotton Association with some degree
OF suspicion. The cotton planters want
to get rs much as they can for their
cotton and il 10 not TO the advantage
Of cotton manufacturers that the price
OF cotton shall Huctuate greatly or
