MECHANICS MUST BE TAKEN
FROM CIVIL SERVICE LIST
Employment of Carpenters on
School Buildings.

City Attorney Long yesterday ad-
vised the Civil Service Commission
that mechanics employed in the con-
struction and repair OF school build
ings are subject to the civil service
provisions of the charter. The ques-
ton was raised upon the refusal of
the Board of Education to recognize
the direction of the Civil Service Com
mission regarding the employment and
dismissal of certain carpenters as
signed 10 work on school buildings.
Long holds that inasmuch as the
mechanics employed for such pur-
poses are employees of the Board of
Works, they must be selected in ac-
cordance with the civil service pro-
visions of the charter.

REFUSES TO SHAKE
HAND OF CARNEGIE
Story Told of How Burns. the British
Labor Leader, Rebuffed the
Steel Man.

LONDON, March 30.-When the
news reached Andrew Carnegie in
america that Will Crooks. the former
workhouse boy, who is now a mem
ber of Parliament for WooIwich was
seriously ill he cabled over instruc-
tiOns that he was to be kept posted
daily on his condition. Few people
are aware of the high esteem in
which the laird OF Skibo holds this
stalwart and incorruptible representa-
tive of labor in the House of Com
mons. He has more faith in Crooks
ability to improve the condieion of
the toiling masses than in that of any
other man in England. From a press
clipping agency he receives cuttings
of all his printed utterances.
Another man for whom he had at
one time conceived a warm admira-
ton is Crooks labor colleague in the
House. John Burns. the member for
Battersea. But Burns did not recip-
rocate the feeling. He showed that
very plainly on one occasion when
Andrew Carnegie chanced to be visit
ing the House. Spying Battersea's
representative standing among
group of members and rendered con-
spicuous by lack of sartorial style. the
millionaire advanced toward him.

fers his hand to John Burns. And
John Burns. was the chilling re-
sponse. refuses to take it,
1t was probably the most embar-
RAISING experience that Carnegie had
ever encountered. The fact Is. Burns
does not regard Carnegie as guiltless
of the blood shed in the Homestead
riots and took this opportunity OF
publicly showing IL.

GERMAN NAVY WEAK
Ships Are Declared Obsolete anG Arm
ament in Poor Condition.

Washington. May 10.-A Berlin dis
l'atcn says: The recent sale of obso-
l"te British war vessels. the total pro-
cot DIS of which amounted to less than
the 10Th part of the original cost has
created sensation here. Some of these
Eritish vessels. held of no further ac-
count for actual naval warfare or even
for coast defence or less strenuous pur-
poses. were only four or five years old
and none of them had been launched
e3rrlicr that IS years ago. The hard
usage they had undergone hal come to
tHem in ordinary times of peace. The
thought is now much ventilated in the
German press. What really is the cen
dition for fighting of the German navy?
For. young as it is. and never so far
having fired a shot in actual war, Il
considerable number of German war
vessels are suspected to be unfit for
meeting an enemy. Scanning the naval
list one finds that not Il few. of the bat
tleShipS and cruisers were launched II,
10. eTen 20 and more years ago. The
Worth. the Wcisscnburg. the Bran
denburS and the Oldcnburg are vet
crai.s. and the Baden, the Wurtem-
burg. the Bayern and the SachsCn were
launched between 1877 ana 1850. Yet all
these belong, to the battleship feet The
case is even WorS" with the cruisers.
One of them. the KONG Wilhelm is 81
wears old. and two others date back to
1874. 1t Is not much better with their
armament. Many of the Krupp guns
are of patterns useless. today, of insult
iioi"nt Crlihrc. and likely to go to
pieces under far less strain than those
British Finch guns were subjected to
which are GOV, because of their de-
fric ncics, rapidly being replaced.
There is not The slightest doubt that
bnth the Kaiser ana the navy depart
mcnt krnw all about these things. The
trouble lies in part with the Eeichstag
and in rart with the fact that Ger
MANI hls. above all. huge army to
support. Every large naval appropria-
tion has to he wrung from the Reich
stag maiority with much difficulty, and
many delegates still regard the navy
as Il personal hobby of the Kaiser, but
us practically useless and unnecessary.
Outside of Germany the opinion seems
t. be prevalent that the navy is pow
erful now. and that within another
few years it will be doubly SO. The
plain truth. however. is, as anybody
can convince himself bv consulting the
official publications. that the German
navy. today. is far behind the Amcri-

forces under your control, to stifle la
boris demands for peace and the meth
Obs Of peace? Why should our attempt
to get and maintain peace be met by
the army and by war?
Every laboring man knows these
facts. What will be the results upon the
citizenship of this country. if, when
American citizens ask for court proce-
dure and order they are met by the
bullet and the Jail? Is it not time to in
quire as to the facts in the case? W.
submit that labor is an essential of ma
tional life. And the sympathy in CO.
corporation of labor in their life work
is as essential as is the sympathy AMI
corporation Of citizenship. Unity is a
necessary fact of development and pro-
gresS. Cnionism can no more be de-
stroyed in industrial life than can pa
triotisnl in political life. He is short
sighted indeed who cannot see that the
cause of one is the cause of all, and
that the destruction of one without pro-
test is sooner or later the destruction
of ALI. The rcvolutionists well under
stood that a law directed at Massa-
chusctts was in cffc:t Il law against
South Carolina. Frankin's saying that
If we don't hang together, we viii
hang separately" has become a truism.
Shall that far-sightednesS that was
praised in Massachusetts be condemned
in Chicago? Or shall that principle Of
action that was praised yesterday be
condemned today? The thousands OF
unions springing up as the trees of the
forest answer, no, unionism has come
to stay. 1t is merely the systematic If
an inherent law of human action.
1t is therefore for us to recognize
thi:: law and deal with il as such. and
make use Of a high trait OF manhood of
which it is the expression than to COM
nit folly OF trying to crush it out, as
George The Third tri.,I to crush out
the spirit of Unity ana independence in
the colonies.
Let us not awake to this fact Just af-
ter it is forever too late. We therefore
trust that you will allow a presenta-
ton of the facts of the case to you be-
fore you permit any abuse of federal
