TO PREVENT STRIKES
Structural Trades Will Be United by
William D. Huber.

Plans are under way for the organiza-
tion among the local labor unions of
body to be known as the Structural
Trades alliance, to include all trades in
any way cohnec5ed WIN stTacIuf G1i
structural trades into this new general
organization, arbitration may take the
place of strikes. William D. Huber of
Indianapolis, president of the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners

MRS. RUSSEIL'S REMEDY
She Would Have the Saloons Near the
Churches.

Mrs. E. A. Russell, who spoke at the
closing meeting Of the Catholic Total
Abstinence union yesterday afternoon,
thought surrounding the churches with
saloons would have good influence,
would then be confronted with the evils
Of the business and could not escape
the knowledge Of the violations of the
law. She scored the mayor for Sunday
saloon usages.
Rev. James Reardon gave contrast
ing picture of drinking conditions in
Russia and Japan.
The following officers were elected:
President, Rev. James NJ. Reardon;
first vice president, G. L. Getchell; sec
ond vice president, Miss Mary Smith;
third vice president, Mrs. j: 81. Mulvi-
secretary, Miss Mary F. Granite; spir-

PLANS NOT APPROVED
Railroads Ideas Of Abolishing Grade.
~,'- CROSSINGS Fail to Pass.

Plans for the separation Of the grade
crossings at University avenue Sc as
submitted by the Northern Pacific rail
way yesterday afternoon did not find
favor with the authorities. For one
thing dip Of seven feet is given to the
street under the bridge; Only one side
ern Pacific ana Milwaukee tracks.
The Milwaukee's plans are not com
,pleted, but both roads think that. the
street railway company should send its
tracks to University avenue by way of
Oak and Beacon streets and thus abol
ish the crossing at Washington avenue
Sc. It is not likely that final plans will
be agreed upon for some time.

A Leaf from Experience.

If Minneapolis IS ever to build
filtration plant, it may be well to take
a leaf out of the experience of Phila-
delphia and not have it built by poll
ticians.
The Investigation set on foot by
Mayor Weaver has brought out these
facts:
Nrst-That political conspiracy
was formed to get control of the city
government and then to build the filter
plant.
second-That the bidding on con-
tracts was limited to the favorite firm
of which Boss Durham and his ieuten-
ant, Senator McNichol, were the chief
partners. They received eleven twelfths
of all the profits.
Third-That the actual work was
sublet to other firms which were
"right' with the machine, and the
Durham combine raked off 25 per cent
without doing any work. a.
Fourth-That the chief engineer of
the works was reached and corrupted
by the gang to the extent that he made
false returns of work done and signed
vouchers for immense sums which had
never been earned. .~@.
Fifth-That the filtration plants
which were originally estimated to cost
$l2 100000, have already cost $22,500,-
900, and are not yet finished. The
mayors counsel are preparing to prove
that millions Of this was steal. .-. s.
When the project of fltering the
water of Philadelphia was first preached
eight years ago, one "Dave' Martin
| was the boss,'' but Durham had al
ready laid his plans to GUST him. Of
course the work Of building could not
be undertaken while Martin was in
power, so, by all kinds of suits, Durham
and his followers delayed proceedings
until Martin fell from power and Dur
hams man Ashbridge became mayor.
Then contracts were entered into, loans
made and the work went forward mer-
rily. Many Of the aldermen were let
into the contract firm and received
small slices of the profits, but the big
end Of the swag went to Durham.
Durham has been interviewed and
says: 81 never denied that I was in
terested in contracts. I supposed every
body knew it, But everybody did not
know it, and particularly his own bench
men did not know it. They are madden
today at Durham than are the taxpay-
ers who have been feeced to enrich
him. They now see that HIz' Durham
was getting rich while all the time
pretending he was doing everything TO,
"the boys" Indeed, 'the boys" said
when the U. G.. I. steal Of the gas works
was up, that it should go thru if il
wrecked the whole Organization, be
cause it was stIzo Durham IS last play
and the boss should have. enough on
of it to retire upon. They wanted II
reward him because they believed hi
had been a square thief. Now they
learn that he has become more than {
millionaire thru filtration contracts an(
they are sore. T.

A gang Of Italian laborers at work on
a Long Island bridge struck. Their
grievance was that they had been
driven from their lodgings by tremen-
dous swarms Of mosquitoes. They de-
clared they would set fire to the bar
racks. When the contractors heard the
last threat they hired Waterman. He
paced up and down in front of the bar
racks on Friday night, armed with a
shotgun. He was set upon by the mos
quitoes and so badly bitten that he is
now in a physicians care. The strike
will continue until the barracks are pro-
vided with mosquito netting. This strike
is certainly justified.
