Almost at the same moment he felt hand
in his pocket, which he grabbed and held.
"Ive got you'll" cried Hosch. you've
picked my pocket"
The owner OF the hand struggled to get
away and in this he was aided by two other
men, evidently confederates, who jostled
Hosch roughly.
The train by this time got under way
and the companions OF Hosch's prisoner,
seeing that odds we're against them. jumped
from the platform at the risk of their lives
and escaped When the other man found
that he couldn't escape he plea led that
he was innocent OF any wrong, but Hosch

NEW CENTRAL LABOR BODY.
Socialists to Organize Rival Organization
to Central Federated Union.


to Central Federated Union.
Asa result Of the organization in Chicago
of the Industrial Workers of the World
By the Socialists, the Socialist Trade and
Labor Alliance of this city decided yeeter-
day to form body Of local unions in OPP
position to the Central Federated Union
The Industrial Work ers Of the World Is
opposed to and vii fight the American
Federation OF Labor.
1t was announced here by. returning
delegates from Chicago at the local head
quarters Of the alliance yesterday afternoon
lied for the Workers: General president
treasurer, William E. Trautman; general
executive board, F. W. Cronin, c. b. Meyer,
F. C. McCabe and C. Kirkpatrick.
The local representatives of the Fedora
ton say that they do not take any stock
in the Workers.
e,Central Federated Union at its meet
ing yesterday unanimously approved a
committee requiring all the Knights Of Labor
organizations represented in the body to
leave the Knights within ninety days or be
suspended by the Central Federated Union.
The Central Federated Union has a general
charter from the American Federation OF
Labor and most Of its unions are affiliated
with the A. F. Of L., but there are still nine
Knights Of Labor assemblies represented
in the body.
This action resulted from charges OF the
Asphalt Workers Union, which is affiliated

STRIKES DISASTROUS TO LABOR.
sherman's First Quarterly Bulletin Shows
the Disruption OF l83 Unions.

tho Dl0rupttOn N AOS OuOns.
ALBANY, July 9.-In the first bulletin OF
the State Labor Department since Patrick
Tecumseh Sherman became Labor Com
missioner, the admission Is made that the
strikes during the quarter ended March 81
had a disastrous effect on the labor Or
CARNATIONS that prosecuted them. The
bulletin says.
sThe failure Of the strike on the Rapid
Transit system In New York city resulted
In the disruption of the unions embracing
q membership Of more than 1000 men;
that OF the glaciers was followed by the dis
solution of union of 500 men; while the
disputes of the Fulton county glove manu-
factories also caused very large losses. Il
some industries trade has only recently
recovered from the recent depression which
greatly weakened the workmen's organiza-
tons.
Thus the Schenectady labor unions lost
10 per cent Of their members between Oct.
i, ieo4 and April 1, 1905, while Syracuse
was the only large city in which unionism
made any gain in the number Of adherents.
In the six months specified le5 organiza-
tons in this State dissolved and 20
more amalgamated with other unions
Of the same trade. On the other hand,
ing a net decrease Of SO, and leaving 3,4ls
organizations in existence at the end OF
March. The aggregate number OF mem
bers of unions was then 374 262. slgnnylng
a net decrease Of l7,4l4 since September.
While the decrease in organizations
was principally in the villages and small
cities, four fifths OF the loss in member
ship was in the seven principal centers
Of industry. New York city lost s,7A.
or 81 per cent. Of it's membership, but
still has 245, 97S unionists. Buffalo has lSl
unions and 3o,l5s members: Rochester,
81 unions and l2,l30 members, decrease
of 1925; Syracuse. IS unions and 1882 mem.
1891 members, a decrease of 1913, or Ga per
cent: Troy, SIS unions and 5,l49 members,
a decrease Of 100, or 2per cent Schenectady,
IS unions and S go members, loss OF ! ,0l2.
"The number OF new disputes in the first
three months Of the year was fifteen as com
pared with twenty eight year ago, while
the time lost as a result OF such disputes was
in the corresponding period OF 1904: The
principal dispute was the strike in March
of POO employees OF the elevated and I'M
foreground railways in New York. The
other important controversies, which were
likewise in New York include the dispute
of 900 cloak and suit makers in February,
100 GLACIERS Jan. to Feb. Is. $50 silk ribbon
Feb 8tols
.The leading cause of disputes was the
recognition Of the union. which accounts
for six disputes Of these three we're
won by the workmen, two by the. en-
ployers and one was compromised. Nearly
all the fresh disputes had terminated be-
fc re- the end Of the quarter. at which time
such idleness as existed by reason OF labor
disputes was due to troubles that began
last year"

LAWS BY THE GREAT GROSS.
Citizens Union Suggests That the Tinker.
Ing Business Is Overdone.


The Citizens Unions committee on legis-
lation has prepared a report on the last
session OF the Legislature, which says that
the number OF bills introduced was over
1900. The number which finally became
law was 100. OF the total 2,eoO, 1, 100 are
strictly local bills. Ninety mine amended
the Forest Fish and Game act.
If 1t costs $3.50 to pass a bill, as Gov.
Higgins has just pointed out" says the
committee, then $4,000 is too much to
pay in these days of State economy for
changes in the Forest, Fish and Game
act The Commissioner Of Forest, Fish
and Game might better be given the power
to change the open and close season for
game rather than waste legislative time
and money. So, too, there should be de-
vised way to stop the bills comforting
jurisdiction on the Court Of Claims legaliz-
ing bonds OF towns and school districts
and legalizing the acts of notaries public
who have acted beyond the period OF their
appointment. So with code amendments,
would it not be we'll II some permanent COM
mission were created to pass on such2 A
code amendment Is never such an impera-
tive matter that it could not first be sub
or similar bodies.
The committee describes as appalling"
the fact that no fewer than TAO Bills were
introduced affecting New York city by
amending the Charter or otherwise. 1t is
stated in the report that it has become
the custom to resort to the Legisla ture
upon the most trivial matters, and the COM
mttee proceeds 1T is safe to say that
at least half of the 74O measures relating
to this city are within the jurisdiction Of
city authorities, and the city would be just
