Labor Leaders to Consult Him Relative
to Sugar Workers Strike.

SAN JUAN, P. r., December s. 1905
1t is evidently within the power of Sam
ueI Gompers to cause or avert the wide
spread and ruinous strike which is now
threatened in Porto Rico, and which, if 1t
occurs will take place in the middle of
the grinding season in February next
Santiago Iglesias, Julio Aybar of Maya
guez and Eugenlo Sanchez of San Juan
will compose q commission of the labor
unions which expects to go to Washing
ton probably on December 10 to confer
with the internatinal unions executive
committee in regard to the conditions of
the local unions in Porto Rico, their needs
etc
The commission will seek aid to further
the organization of carpenters, machinists,
longshoremen, painters bakers and other
trades, and among other things which they
hope TO secure is a loan of 50 900 or So, OOU
with which to start a labor paper in San
Juan, to be published in English and Span
ish.
In regard to the forthcoming strike of
the sugar field workers, Iglesias says that
although there are about 30 0GO men en-
pioyed by the sugar industry, only about
10000 of them are members of the union
in good standing. By good standing is
meant those members who have paid their
dues in full of year. The regular dues
are 30 cents a month. of which 40 cents is
for the local union and 10 cents for the
American Federation of Labor In case of
Der in good standing Is entitled to draw 81
a week from the American Federation for
a period of six weeks.
Asked IL there is to be a general sugar
strike, Iglesias, who Is the federation's or
ganizer for Porto Rico. replied that there
would probably be one. although there have
been a great many Misrepresentation
and misstatements made by certain local
labor leaders who have no authority to
make the statements that they have made.
In order to secure any assistance or sup
port from the American Federation, a To-
cal union before declaring a strike must
comply with the regulations Of the fed
Grafton. which provide that when the local
union decides that strike is necessary 1t
must apply to President Gompers, who will
appoint board of arbitration to confer
with the employers and endeavor to adjust
grievances without resorting to strike
II the board Is unable to reach an under
standing and Gompers is convinced that
ale grievances justify strike strike will
be ordered after due notice.
Local unions may expect no assistance
from the federation unless these formali-
ties are observed, and no step of the kind
has yet been taken by Iglesias, although IT
is possible that such action may be taken
as a result of the conference at Washing
ton next month The unions at Arecibo.
Guayama, Mayaguez. Ponce and Yauco
Iglesias said. have already asked permits

YELLOW FEVER IN CUBA
scourge Growing Despite Efforts of
Health Officials.

AS the yellow fever has continued to
spread, despite the efforts of the health Of
ficials, the Havana papers are devoting
long editorials to the proper steps to be
taken to stamp out the scourge
FL Mundo says that the fever has counted
more victims in Cuba than all the cyclones
and all the fires. and suggests that as the
death of the mosquito means the end OF the
fever the work of smoking out these pests
should not be done by nstallments in the
neighborhoed where yellow fever appears,
but that Havana should make an effort to
kill all the mosquitoes indoors in one day
by hiring thousands of workmen, putting
on all the artillerymen, policemen rural
guards and the employees OF public works.
and asking the aid of all business men III
their own quarters.
La Discussion reviews cond lions, saying
zas, Alacranes. Santiago and other places
in Cuba. Aside from the political and in
ternational aspect Of the fever il says the
matter Is of such Importance that IL re-
quires the attention OF all. Outside giving
the medical corps support IL insists that
each person should become Il sanitary in
spector and report spots that require re-
pairs, changes and the cleansing Of wall

Millers OF Colorado urge farmers in
the irrigated grain regions ot the state
to grow Defiance us their spring wheat

these give most satisfactory milling re.

II ia believed durum wheat is not "a.
dapted for wet farming conditions, but
that 1t can be successfully grown IN
many parts OF our semi arid lande where
other wheat cannot be grown. This will
add many thousand acres to the wheat
