When Settlements q Reached

Minneapolis, Minn., April 2O.-The In
ternati6nal Union Of Flour and Cereal
Mill Employees, with headquarters in
this city has just issued circular to
all unions to the effect that there IS
nothing in the report that the controv-
ersy between the union and the WASH
burn-Crosby Milling company had been
settled.
The union desires all workingmen to
know that ''all flour made by the
Washburn-Crosby Milling company is
still on the we don't patronize' list ;"
When a settlement shall have been
reached organized labor will be Of
ficially notified.
The union believes that it has the
unfair milling firm beaten, and that it
is only matter of a short time when
they will ask for a settlement, as their
trade is constantly decreasing. =.

CALIFORNIA IS FLOODED

Citizens Alliances Over doing

False Promises.
Innocent Laboringmen Are
Sent Into Towns to Find
There Is No Work.

Eureka, Cal, April 20.-Organized la
Dor in this vicinity Is in deep trouble,
not because it is unable to cope with
employers of labor, but because labor
exploiters are sending into this country
thousands upon thousands of working
men under the promise that there Is
an abundance of work here. The suf-
fering experienced here by newcomers
cannot be told in print.
Real estate boomers and the lumber
ing companies are spreading the re-
ports throughout the country to the
effect that there is prosperity here.
Organized labor protests against this
claim, which is evident from the fact
that shingle weavers and other trades
men are locked out because of their
refusal to accept reduction in wages
Trouble exists in all of the logging
camps of the country for the same
reason.
The recent burning of the Bayside
Mill and Lumber company's property
has put over 400 men out of jobs. The
building trades are in an unsettled con-
dition, as strikes are imminent among
the carpenters and painters, and 1t
must be plain that if workingmen come
here the risk Of an idle time is very
great
Scores Of newly arrived immigrants
are being turned this way by citizens
alliances; many of them are left to
walk out of town because of lack OF
money to pay their railroad fare.

RESTRAINING ORDER
AGAINST THE UNION

SAN JUAN, P. r., April 19.-Charles
Hartzell. former secretary of Porto
Rico, representing the Compagnie Des
Sucreries De Porto Rico, a French
corporation owning 1000 acres Of sugar
plantations in the Ponce district, has
obtained from United States Judge Nc
Kenna preliminary restraining order
or injunction against Santiago 1glesias
and twenty other members Of the
American Federation of Labor.
The defendants are charged with
preventing the operation of the
plantation by intimidation and vio-
lence.
The company claims that 1t is suf-
fering daily loss Of $4,000 and that
1000 workmen not belonging to Igle-
sias' organization are willing to work If
not interfered with.
This Is the first restraining order
against strikers since American occupa-
ton of Porto Rico.

James Walsh, grand president of the

six weeks trip at the lower lake ports,
where he and President D. J. Keefe
Of the Longshoremen's union made con-

and dock interests on the Great Lakes
involving the employment and welfare
Of 10000 men,
According to these contracts an
average increase in wages has been
secured amounting to liz per cent.
Hours of labor have been reduced from
II to 10 from September 1st, 1905. to
the close Of navigation. Agreements
have been made with all tug owners Of
Importance on the lakes. There never
has been a time In the history of the
labor movement in marine circles when
the situation was so bright from both
labor and an employers standpoint
Both sides are satisfied with the pres
ent amicable relations; both thorough
ly understand each other, and it only
requires an honest living up to con-
tracts to continue these relations. It
Is fortunate for those whose busi-

Marine Organizations Popular.
The standing Of the marine organiza-
tions is so we'll established now that
some of the leading marine transport
tation interests have no hesitancy in
writing President Keefe for a con-
ference with the idea of making a con-
tract with his union. Only last week
Mr.. Walsh was sent to Houghton to
represent Mr.. Keefe in joint bargain
proposition. The invitation for a con-
ference came from such Well known
Eeoinpantes at Houghton as the Port-
age Coal and Dock Company, and the
Copper Range Railroad Company. Mr..
Walsh visited both firms and a very
good contract was agreed to.

ilARINf LABOR UNIONS ASSURE ALL
INTERESTS OF INDUSTRIAL PEACE

At last the Lake Pilots Association
has been put upon firm basis. Dur
ing the winter the pilots and mates
have quietly organized without maxi
ing much noise, until today they have

have been left out OF the new organ

tion. 1t has the support and protec-
ton Of this organization which Is a
foregone conclusion that the union
will be a success from the start. The
pilots organization was unable to get
started in time to make contracts for
this season, although agreements have
been made with the lumber carriers
association whereby only union mates
and pilots will be employed on lumber
boats. Next year it is expected that
contracts will be made on all of the big
vessel interests.
Lonashoremen Control Situation.
President Keefe's organization now
has control of every class of working
men engaged In maritime work except
the captains and the engineers of out
side boats. The former are not par
ticularly sought after for an organiza-
tion, while the latter may be members
of the Marine Engineers Beneficial as
sociation, although it Is not necessary
to be a member of this organization
to obtain a position on the large ,ves-
sells. 1t is agreed, however. that 1t is
only a matter of short time when
the engineers will see the wisdom of
uniting with the allied interests now
constituting the longshoremen and
marine workers association.
The organization of the lake pilots
was given an impetus by the pledging
of support from some of the allied un-
ions in joint conference with the dock
interests at Cleveland recently.
While attending this conference the
representatives Of the. Licensed Tug
mems Protective Association adopted
a strong set Of resolutions pledging
their support to the pilots. The reso-
luticns were as follows:

Whereas, the Lake Pilots have again
organized, and have affiliated with the

become directly attached to the Ii

BIC TRUST BOOSTS
PRICE Of LIVE STOCK
Supposed That Trust Is Try
ing to Claim It Cannot
Control Market.
Public Footed the Bill to Ex-
tent of 100000 Dur
ing Past Month.

Chicago, ILL.,, April 20.-Since the beef
trust was attacked before the Federal
grand jury the packers have paid a
total of more than $6,oo0,0oo more for
their live stock than they would have
done under the prevailing prices of the
month previous.
This amount was paid out by the
packers during the most remarkable
rise in the prices of live stock ever
known in Chicago.
The extra money goes into the pock-
cts Of the stockraisers, who were pio-
neer complainants against the beef
trust for manipulation of the market,
and it is paid, at least in part, by the
great army of consumers of meat,
through the increase in the price of the
cuts on the butchers blocks.
The packers have encouraged, not
discouraged, the leaping live stock
market, though continuing their stren-
uous complaints that the dressed meat
trade is in exceedingly bad condition.
Speculation is rife and many theories
are advanced at the stockyards regard
ing the unprecedented rise of the past
month. but out of them has grown one
general conviction.
The packers. under the grand jury
searchlight, threatened with criminal
Indictment. an under the eyes of the
whole country, are believed to be max
ing spectacular attempt to convince
the public that they cannot control the
live stock market while the increased
prices are supposed to be for the pur-
pose of getting the stockmen to cease
aiding the government in it's inquiry.
No scarcity exists to give basis for
the contention that the advance is due
to the law supply and demand, as the
receipts are running far heavier than
at this time last year, when the mar
ket was at its lowest ebb of prices and
growers were bitterly denouncing the
beef trust.
While the packers have been paying
out this additional 100000 in one
month and the live stock raisers have
been rejoicing, and the packer COM
planning of the dressed beef trade, the
retail butchers and the consumers have
been paying a goodly part of the mo-
ney involved.
Dressed meats have risen in price
from $3.50 to 81 and IS per 100 pounds,
while in few cases the increase has
been greater. For instance, pork lqins
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1905-04-22

have been put up about 31k cents per
pound.
Market figures positively prove these
significant and sudden changes Of
prices.
The. $6,000O00 total increase of live
stock prices is a conservative estimate.
Since March l the appreciation has
been from So to SIS uer head on cattle
and 81 to 81 on hogs. During this
month the approximate receipts have
been $4,000 cattle and $4,000 hogs.
Taking the minimum increase of price
as the average. the total net advance
here in Chicago figures $2,656,000 on
cattle and $4,000 on hogs, or a total
of $3,44S, 600. This is the advance in
Chicago alone, based on February
prices. Including St. Louis, Kansas
City, Omaha, Sioux City, St. Paul, st.
Joseph, and Fort Worth in the reck-
oning fully doubles this amount, ma
king the grand total 6,886,000.
Thousands Of cattle have been" sold
in Chicago at IS and $3.50 per 100
pounds during the past two weeks that
were selling at 81 and $4.25 in February.
As one specific instance, Armour buy
ers last week paid at the rate of A.35
for train load of light Texas grass
steers of the kind sold at $3.50 a month
ago.
Gets tncriminatinq Trunks.
Six big trunks, said to contain Sec
ret records or a private set of books
of the beef trust were seized by the
United States authorities at the Ma
tional Safe Deposit Company vaults,
First National Bank Building, early in
the week, and taken under guard to
the Federal offices in the Monadnock
Building.
Thes trunks were secured on a SUBJ
poena issued by District Judge Kene-
saw M. Lands against Daniel Peck
ham. secretary and manager of the
safe deposit company, the papers be-
ing served by Deputy Marshal Asa
Udell, who brought the great packages
in OH truck.
A witness ia said to have betrayed
that members of the beef trust collected
discriminating records, books and cor
respondence and stored them in the
trunks in the safe deposit vaults on
March %, three days after the grand
jury began Investigating the meat in
dustry.
Every federal official connected
with the beef inquiry denied knowledge
of what is in the trunks. They would
make only a tacit admission that the
trunks had been seized.
