GLADDEN.
ON UNIONS
FOE OF ROCKEFELLER SAYS Or
CARNATIONS on WORKERS
ARE RIGHT.

Boston, July 26.--That labor unions
are not only an indisputable right of
the workingman, but the only means
by which that class can escape being
enslayed and degraded; that such or
ganizations protect the interests Of
their members, secure fair hours of la-
Dor and proper remuneration and fix
their social status In accordance with
the best ideals and habits of the age,
is the burden Of an garticle by Dr.
Washington GLADDEN. ito be. published
in the current numberof the Congrega-
tionalists. under the title my Neigh
bor the Trades Unionists."
Perhaps" writes DR.. GLADDEN., you
will say that some trade unionists
sometimes behave like criminals and
endanger the peace and welfare of So
ciety. That is true. It6is also true that
ministers of the gospel, of capitalists,
of members of great corporations. But
that IS no reason why we should re-
gard capitalists or members of great
corporations, as a class, as public enc
mics.
Error on Both Sides.
There is a great IDEAL Of this
sweeping Judgment IN both sides OF
the labor controversy, and it is
wholly wrong and nischievous.
( Sometimes you sas that you do not
object to trades uniSns if they keep
within their legitimate province, If
they do not meddle With what is none
of their business. What you mean is
that you do not object to the bene
fetal and social fea tlYrpa of tho unions
and would be glad toyencourage them
but you do not approve of their at
tempts to regulate wages or the hours
or conditions of labor. These. you
think, should be determined by the
employer.
.Your neighbor, the unionist, as
such, is doing what he has perfect
right to do, and is bound to do; what
you would do if you were in his
place."

MRS. CHADWICK
GETS TEN YEARS
FrenZied Financier Sentenced to the
Ohio Penitentiary.
NEW TRIAL WAS REFUSED

Cleveland. O.. March 2S.-Unless the
higher court interferes. Mrs. Cassie
l.. Chadwick viii spend the greater
part of the next 10 years in the Ohio
state penitentiary.
A sentence Of 10 years was imposed
upon her by Judge Robert w. Tayler,
in the United States district court
The sentence came at the close Of a
busy day for the court in hearing argu-
ments on a motion for a new trial,
which lasted all day. The motion was
Oyerruled
Mrs. Chadwick was convicted on
seven counts and sentenced upon six
counts. For four OF these counts a
sentence of two years each was i'm
posed. Upon two counts a sentence OF
one year each was imposed. Upon two
counts sentence of one year each
was imposed, making a total sentence
Of 10 years
AS soon as the sentence was pro
nounced. Attorney J. p. Dawley, OF
counsel for Mrs. Chadwick, took ex-
ceptions TO the sentences upon each
count, except the first count The de-
Tense intends 10 make the claim that
the court cannot impose separate
sentence for each count: that the law
applies to the general charge instead
Of each incident OF a general charge.
The various counts Of the indictment
are considered by the defense to refer
only TO details Of the general offense.
This point viii also be contested In
the higher court, as will the other
points of the Chadwick trial, which
resulted in her conviction.
Mrs. Chadwick was not particularly
affected by the action OF the court, as
seemingly she had resigned herself 10
any action ths< might be taken. When
she was told that the motion for
new trial had been refused. she merely
nodded her head as If she already
knew. though she is so hard OF hearing
she could not have known what words
the court uttered. The court asked
her II she had anything TO say why
sentence should not be pronounced
She looked around In bewilderment
She was not certain what was taking
place, and had not the slightest idea
what Che court said. She was then led
forward. nearer the bench, and the
court shouted the question. She then
understood.
II have nothing TO say" she said.
"but ] would like TO consult with my
attorneys first"
You may do so. but IL must be Inn
mediately," the court enjoined her. "If
you have anything TO say you must say
IL now"
