RUSSIAN LABOR TROUBLES.
American Leaders Giving Serious Con-
sideration to Conditions,

American labor leaders are giving serious
consideration to the recent rioting in Rus
sia, which has revived interest IN the gen.
eral condition of the workmen of that coun-
try Mr.. Samuel Gompers president Of the
American Federation OF Labor, said to a
reporter for The Star today that the condi-
ton of the wage-workers of Russia is re-
garded depforable. He said labor or
ganizations are forbidden there, and secret
societies of workngmen in the land of the
czar are placed in the same category as
those composed of nihilists and revolution
lists.
THE consequence is continued Mr..
Gompers, "that when the grievances of the
working classes in Russia reach the pent-
up stage, the result is an uprising and riot
ing. Their feelings must find vent some
where and somehow. and being denied by
law the right of organization, and those
greatest of all boons a free press and free
speech, the vent becomes violence.
In our republic the workingmen find
vent for their grievances in free speech
and they proceed along Il rational course.
They realize that political liberty Is one OF
the essentials to industrial development"
Mr.. Gompers added that scenes of vio-
| lence in this country were of comparatively
rare occurrence and came only In spots.
There is danger of q general uprising
here. such as that. witnessed in Russia. and
cent years, so long the American worker
has his rights under the Constitution. Had
the Russian tailors theses rights of free
speech, a free press, organization and
equality under the law such scenes of
carnage as were recently witnessed on the
streets of the great cities of Russia would
never occur The denial OF these rights
leaves as the only outlet for the outraged
feelings the masses the uprisngs such as
those of recent days.
Mr.. Gompers also said the full right of
organization is not conceded the working
men of Austria and Germany Representa-
tives of the police departments of those
countries attend all meetings of mechanics
and laborers and have the privilege of dis
solving the meetings whenever they see fit,
and arresting the speakers II they consider
such step necessary.
1t is the hope of President Gompers and
other labor leaders that the near future
may see display of liberalism on the part
of the rulers of the European countries and
progressive American ideas be introduced
into the labor fields there.

known attorneys Of New Jersey, paid SOC
for two quart bottles of milk and the same
amount of cream, or at the rate of $50 a

then hired Archie Burrell to get the milk.
Snowdrifts ten feet high in places blocked
Burrelfs horse and carriage. At times he
was obliged to drive to the beach. and his
Journey ordinarily three miles. proved TO
be three times that distance, and occu-
pied more than four hours. But he reached
the depot and delivered the milk. Mr..
Bourgeois has been married about eighteen
months. His wife was Miss Blanche Mil
iette. his stenographer. The first wife of
Mr.. Bourgeois obtained divorce from him,
after which he married Miss Miliiette. Mr.

Detroit Wants Bowling Congress.
DEPARTMENTAL LEAGUE.

Detroit bowlers have sent word to Mil
waukee, where the national championships
will be decided next month. that they have
decided to ask for the 1906 meet Of the
American Bowling Congress. Eight five
men teams have entered from the Michigan
metropolis, and it is promised that special

New York. With only Omaha and Kansas
City to oppose the Gothamites, 1t was
feared that New York would carry of the

President Roosevelt has transmitted to
the Senate the final report of the COM
mission on international exchange. with
a letter from Assistant Secretary of State
Loomis commenting on the report In his
message the President says: II transmit
herewith the final report Of the commits
sion on international exchange, consti-
tuted under authority Of the act of March
3, 1908, in compliance with the requests
Of the governments of China and Mexico.
The work Of the commission has as
sisted greatly in the establishment of the
new monetary systems OF the Philip
pine Islands, Mexico and the Republic Of
Panama. The work done in China has,
from the letter of the Prince of Ching,
the head of the executive, been very help
ful to that government. Such improve
ments in the monetary systems of the
silver-using countries bring them into
closer connection with THE gold standard
countries and are of very great benefit to
the trade of the United States. and every
effort should be made to encourage such
reforms. =
THE attention of Congress Is invited to
the accompanying report of the acting
secretary of state, whose request for q
suitable appropriation for carrying on
this valuable work in the manner which
seems to him most practicable I heartily
indorse and recommend to your favorable
consideration.
