different categories of workmen by the
menace OF a general strike. The situation,
they claim, has thus been rendered intoler-
able and in fact when the screwmakers
and packers refuse to accept the mas
ters' terms it was impossible To carry on
the other departments Of the works. The
men employed in the screwmaking de-
partment had an average wage of 623
pfennigs an hour; the women in the same
department an average wage OF 35l. They
demanded a general rise Of 10 per cent
The employers, after comforting with the
workmen's committee, offered a general
rise of from to per cent for piece work
so arranged as to favor the cheaper kinds
of work Although the leaders Of the men
recommended the acceptance Of this offer
It was rejected, and on the following day
the strike began.

One view of Rate Regulation.
The subject Of railroad rate legislation. IL
anything, is being more generally talked
about today than at any time since the
discussion began. and It is undoubtedly
true that the discussion will continue until
congress enacts some form of rate logis-
laton.
Recently, Representative Prince of llli-
nois, was discussing railroad rate legis-
lation with some friends here in Wash
ington. He is an ardent rate regulation
list. and never neglects an opportunity To
state how strongly his district stood with
the president for rate regulation. A friend
who had been listening to Mr.. Prince for
quite a time, "butted in" with the follow
ing observation:
| have heard that side of the question
and also took the other side. l am sort
of a man up tree looking on as an Inn
partial observer. with no Interest at stake
except that which the average citizen mas
1t seems to me that there has been whole
lot of unnecessary excitement about II.
In the first place, whether there Is iegis-
it will make no difference to the great
mass of the people. Things will cost the
consumer just much as they do now,
and if there is anyone to benefit by rate
legislation, II will be the manufacturer
and the jobber. You buy your Stetson hat
here, or in Baltimore, or In New York, or
in Chicago, or even in San Francisco, or
Honolulu, and the price is identically IN,
same You buy the same sort OF SUIT
of clothes or the same sort of under
wear, or the same sort of shirts. or the
same brand of collars wherever you go,
and freight charges, or no freight charges,
the price you pay is just the same, You
buy your clothes wherever you Will, and
the same kind cost the same money.
And so il is with what you eat. The
prices on your sugar and your coffee, and
your breakfast foods and your wines, and
your meats and your -four, and whatever
else you eat, and the price IS just the
same, for the Food trust regulates the
prices from Maine TO Florida and from
New York to San Francisco. The same
is true of your nuts, and your fruits and
your cigars.
! II you are a professional man or a
student, the same is true Of your BOOKS
and of the appliances of your professions
III you are a farmer, the same Is true OF
your plows and all your machinery. And
the statement might be continued adm
finitum.
