AN EMINENT
STATISTICIAN
THE MAN WHO WAS FOOLED BY
HALF CENTURY OLD CIRCULAR
VISITS HONOLULU.

o. P Austin statistician of the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor, was
a passenger passing through to the
mainland on the Coptic. He has been
in the orient on behalf of his depart
ment, studying matters especially in
the Philippines.
Honolulu has especial cause to re-
member him, though in a laughable,
not a vindictive way. 1t will be re-
membered that two or three years ago
the Department of Commerce and La
Dor issued bulletin descriptive of the
progress and conditions of Hawaii since
annexation. Incorporated in this
was a circular issued by the old Royal
Hawaiian Agricultural Society nearly
fifty years ago.
This circular was used as though it
were recent publication describing
present conditions.

CHIEF NIEMANN GOES.

SAN FRANCISCO, September g.
Chief Engineer w. H. Niemann, who
for twenty years past has been in the
service of the Oceanic Company, with
a fine record, was detached from the
Sierra a day before her departure, his
place being filled by Robert ]. Hill, late
of the Ventura. Niemann stood well
in the regard of the Oceanic Company
unit 1.-The advent of Supervising En-
gineer Charleton from the East a few
w eeks ago. Charleton seems to have
chosen Niemann as a good subject for
sacrifice, for he recommended his dis
missal and as a consequence this popu-
lar and efficient chief engineer was ask
ed for his resignation. That meant
that he had to go, and Niemann grace
fully acquiesced. From all accounts
Niemann's chief fault lay in standing
up for his rights during an alteration
with the new supervising engineer

Chicago H.. May e.-As a result Of the
action OF four laborers, fully 1900 work
men have been thrown out of employ
ment at the new plant of Sears. Roebuch
G. CO.. at Kedzie avenue and Taylor
street, where a model cooperative indus
trial establishment. covering a large area
Is being built at cost OF several mill
lion dollars Work on the buildings is
practically at a standstill.
A remarkable feature OF the strike
is the fact that the officials of the unions,
to which the men belong are strongly
against the walkout, and most OF them
will demand that the entire force return
to work or face trial boards.
Warrants were sworn out for the four
men accused of causing the trouble. one
has been arrested, charged with disorder
ly conduct The reason assigned for the
strike is that the we'll diggers or casson
workers, were being paid but As cents
an hour instead OF 80 cents. the alleged
scale.

COAL MEN
ON STRIKE

This morning there was some more
trouble at the Point street yards of the
Eastern Coal company. when the non
union men who had been at work there
refused to continue on account of the
small pay.
When the men were hired IL was
thought that they were to have the wages
paid TO the union men. and with that
understanding. 1t was said this morning,
they went to work. Last evening was
the time for payment. and when each
man received his envelope he opened 1t
and found that he had been paid at the
rate of between 20 cents and % cents
per hour, while 1t was expected that they
would receive at least 35 cents per hour.
When they ali found That they had been
treated the same way there was a con-
ference between the men which was con-
tinued till this morning. This morning
the men asked for 35 cents per hour and
were refused. after which they struck.
AS soon as the men refused 10 work
longer, a force was made up from those
n tthe other yards sufficient 10 run two
shifts and 10 continue to unload the barge
Honesdale. These men, together with a
few Portuguese. made up the crew which
was at work till noon, when some OF the
new gang quit.
There were % or 3 men at work there
among the coal handlers and shovelers
but the force is now reduced At the
meeting Of the Coal Handlers union to-
morrow afternoon those who struck will
apply for Sdmlttance TO the union.
