NEW ARBITRATION TANGLE.
Building Trades want to Pay Ohncers and

ing with the Building Trades Employer
Association to carry out provision in the
revised arbitration agreement. This pro-
vision. which the unions fought hard to get
into the agreement, is to the effect that the
expenses OF the general arbitration boardi
including the salaries Of the secretary
and his assistants. hitherto paid by the
employers, be borne in equal shares by the
employers and the unions. Under the old
system It was held that the secretary and
his assistants were virtually employees
Of the employer association.
To pay their share Of the expenses tho
unions levied last May a per capita tar
of 10 cents to be followed by another as
sessment later.
About 50 per cent. Of the bricklayers
are working for independent employers
and the bricklayers unions notified their
representatives on thu. general arbitration
board yesterday that they could not collect
the assessment. None Of the money has
been collected so far and the unions say
that it would be impossible to find out
exactly who are working for independents
The same conditions exist among the
other unions, and as the secretary and his
assistants must be paid anyway It was
believed last night that the employers
would pay all the expenses again.
Strikers Respect Arbitration Agreement.

sented, including the carpenters, come

notified their unions that the strike was

and ordered the strikers to return to work.

ter he has written i'm response to COM
munfcations from the Merchants Ex-
change OF San Francisco These Chi
uese laborers should be excluded, he
writes but the exempt classes of Chinese
should be treated courteously. He says
this Government must be just, as well
as TO exact justice.
II the exclusion laws need TO be
amended, American merchants must ex-
ercise their influence for amendment, he
says. The President adds that the i'm
migration department has acted with
the utmost harshness toward the Chi
nese, the fault resting ultimately with
mistaken public opinion.
In regard TO the Chinese boycott of
American goods. the President says that
everything IN his power and that OF the

PUCCINI'S LA BOHEhE
AN INTERESTING WORK

Puccini's musical version Of Mayer s
book dealing with the impecunious
artists OF Paris is hardly destined 10
rank high in the operatic creations of
the present.
These conditions We're made manifest
at the Columbia Theater last night
when La Boheme" was given by the
Savage Company. Those in the cast did
well enough, but the opera itself fell
Cat Puccini tries to tell his story in
French with an Italian accent. In other
words, a Latin Quarter love story with
Neapolitan trimmings. Modern writer's
do endeavor 10 tell something by means
of umentation-Puccini tells moth
ing. AS to the vocalization, II il so
Trapped" as TO keep even a thorough
student of music guessing. Like the in
harmonious unresolved seventh chord,
the whole opera needs resolving"
In decided contrast to the musical
construction is the opportunity offered
for histrionic effect, but in this char
acteristic the cast measured up to every
requirement. There is an iutermingling OF
the pathetic and bouffe that requires an
acute discrimination, but those I'm the
parts from top TO bottom were equal TO
every demand.

Labor for Far-0ff Works.

Two great nations ares wrestling
these days with serious difficulty
in obtaining labor for far-off works.
America is hard put TO find men for
shovels along the route of the 18th
mian canal. England is in the throes
of bitter dispute over a project to
find men to work in Cape Colony.
in both countries the problem is
complicated by the active principles
of labor unions, the equally active
principles Of societies of moral pur-
poses. and equally pressing consider
ations of economy and results.
Panama is far enough away from
American labor markets tG ha con-
sidered In the light of fits distinctive
needs. Dirt must be dug Men are
needed to dig It. Neither the wages
nor the life attract capable American
workmen. Wherefore. workmen of
another sort must be found. That
reasoning. it is safe TO say, will sat
isfy the whole country; and event
ually, and that soon. workmen of
that other sort will be on the 18TH
mus with shovels in their hands.
But Panama is not as far away from
America as Cape Colony is from
England, and England is seriously
wrought up over the matter OF labor
for South Africa Significantly, the
dismay in England is not over the
employment OF the men it is pro-
posed to mport-Chfnese. 1t is over

A New Record in Annual Reports

Those who read the Washington
newspapers viii indulge those who
make them in the pride the latter
feel over the annual report of Mr..
P. V. DeGraw, Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General For once such
a document bears the stamp of good
editing. For once it is possible to
read of bureau in the Government
service, understand as you go along.
and comprehend the recommenda-
tions to which ii leads, without the
help of a chart and compass.
Occasional other reports have
given newspaper men this same kind
of pleasure-such as the compilation
of postal regulations by Mr.. De-
Graw's associate, Mr. Madden, and the
last annual report of the Secretary of
Commerce and Labor. 1t Is doubt
ed. however, if any has ever given
so much of this pleasure. Sixteen
pages-clear, pertinent. comprehen-
sive-will be accepted as a new re-
cord
The explanation of the newspaper
mans particular pleasure in this re-
port is that Mr.. DeGraw was con-
spicnously successful IN newspaper
work before he assumed the duties
of Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral. The standards Of succintness,
directness, and accuracy which gov
ern the making of the daily paper
were second nature to him-and It
ought to occasion no surprise that
an annual report, even precedent
laden, wooden, thick thing like an
annual report, from his hands should
bear the seal of good editing. But
the achievement is none the less
praiseworthy OH that account.

CLEVER ROMANCE
OF CIVIL WAR DAYS

~ Javelin Of Fate" Houghton. Milf
lin Company. by Jennie Gould Lincoln.
OF Washington, Is a romance with a
civil war setting. II is the story OF a
mother who forgets her duty 20 her
child and in the end is punished.
While Mrs. Lincoln has chosen for her
new book the same period as that of
which she wrote IN her "Marjorie's
Quest" they have little in common out
side OF a delicate touch OF humor which
runs through both books.
The characters i'm "a Javelln Of Fate"
are well and conscientiously drawn.
Mrs. Lincoln Is particularly fortunate
in her delineation of Southern men and
women OF that day. Although the proud
and beautiful Evelyn Vansittart is the
heroine of the story, Champe Ran
dolphe n fair rebel and blockade run
ner. steals large part of the interest
OF the reader, and her love for a union
of1cer makes a charming secondary plot
The book is a more serious piece of
work than anything which Mrs Lincoln
has hitherto attempted. Several OF the
scenes are strong and well handled
Especially Is this true OF the denouement
OF the story which Is withheld until
the last paragraph. The plot deals with
the search by Evelyn Nansittart for the
man whom she thinks played her false

she forgets first the child that is born
10 her in a hut in the mountains of

and wealthy foreigner, and even the
daughter whom she rears.
After many years she discovers that
the man she seeks Is an officer of the
Confederate army. high in rank Again
and again he seems to be within her
grasp but each time fate intervenes.
In the end IL is she herself TO whom a
terrible punishment IS meted out
