STRIKE SITUATION
IN OTHER PLACES.
Union Painters, Carpenters, Brick
layers and Hold Carriers Quit in
Paterson and PassaiC.

Union painters, bricklayers and
bod carriers of Paterson are out on
strike for an advance in wages and
unless a settlement is reached soc
there will be a complete tie-up in the
building trades in Paterson and vicin-
ity. The painters demand $3.50 a
day; an increase of fifty cents. The
bricklayers demand sixty cents an
hour, and a proper understanding of
the work to be performed by the la
borers, who are paid thirty-five cents
an hour. The hod carriers ask for
thirty-five cents an hour, instead of
thirty cents.
1t is not probable that the master
painters will compromise with the
Journeymen, although there is a good
prospect of an agreement in the 9TH
er branches of the building trades.
The master painters declare they can
not grant the new demand and that
they might as well have their battle
with the ~journeymen now.
Conditions in Passaic.
Several hundred union hod car
riers and laborers went on strike yes
terday morning in Passaic, causing a
suspension of work on all. the brick
buildings being erected there. The
strikers have been receiving thirty
cents an hour, although their agree
ment with the bosses only calls for
twenty-five cents. They demanded
that the employers sign an agreement
by which they must continue to pay
thirty cents. The bosses refuse to
make such an agreement.
A large number of men of a local
carpenters union refused to start
yesterday because they were not paid
forty-five cents an hour, which they
assert, they employers had agreed tC
give. The master builders offered
thirty-seven and one-half cents al
hour, the old scale, and would give nc
definite reason for refusal to hold tc
their promise.
The local union of tinsmiths de
clared its intention of striking. un-
less an increase from thirty-seven and
one-half cents to forty-one cents al
hour was allowed. At a meeting
however, the members voted to con
tinue to work at the old rate.
Little Trouble in Newark.
Excepting paperhangers and paint
ers, who have been on strike for sew
eral weeks, May Day in Newark found
the bosses and the journeymen in al
the building trades at peace. The
carpenters settled all their differences
on Monday and the masons and brict
layers remained at work pending The
outcome of a conference between the
representatives of the bosses and
i~ourneymen, which is to take place
within a few days.

STATEMENT OF THE
COAL OPERATORS.
President Wilcox Gives Reasons for
Refusing Miners Increase Quot
ed Mr.. MitchelI's Remarks.

NEW YORK, May 2.-R Representa-
tives of the coal operators in this city
made public Il statement by David
Wilcox, president of the Delaware and
Hudson company, in reply to Il recent
statement of President John Mitchell
of the United Mine Workers.
In it Mr.. Wilcox quoted Mr.. Mitch
ellis remark at the last miners conven-
tion at indianapolis to the effect that
80 long as | I'M connected with the
miners organization and so long as
they give to me and to my advice the
same confidence, the same respect that
year by year they have, if market con
ditions justify us, we shall ask for
more and more wages" Commenting
ON it Mr.. Wilcox said:
"What is the value of negotiation or
even arbitration if it is never to be re-
garded as final, but merely as a basis
for -incessant further demands?"
Local branches of the United Mine
Workers in the anthracite region are
electing delegates to the Scranton o n
ventlon, which Is to be held tomorrow,
and most of them are %instructing their
delegates to follow President Mitch
ellis advice implicitly. The shooting at
Mount Carmel, which is generally be-
lfeved by the mine workers to have
been unjustified, has aroused a sullen
anger that may lead to Il strong move
ment in favor of a strike.
DrnSidnnt MitchnII when nI1aetiOnad
about the matter expressed his feelings
as follows:
The action of the troopers seems to
confirm the fears of the foreigners that
the establishment of a state constabu-
larry was to establish a Russian insti-
tuition in this country. The shooting
was seemingly uncalled for and is
greatly to be deplored."
More than this he would not say.

MANILA. BAY
ANNIVERSARY
Admiral Dewey and Officers
Celebrate Naval Victory
Gained Islands for U. S.

WASHINGTON, May Eight years
ago Admiral Dewey defeated the Span
ish fleet in Manila bay, and last night
many of the officers who We're with
Dewey on May 1, 1893, held their an
nual celebration. 1t is d regular thing
in Washington, this May day dinner,
and the affair was a brilliant function.
Admiral Dewey held a reception, and
a great many came to pay their re-
spects and offer their congratulations.
The admiral looks exceptionally well
and will probably enjoy many another
anniversary.
He was made to talk of his victory.
He said that he believed that as the
day of the victory of Manila bay grows
more distant the Importance of it
grows bigger in the eyes of the peo-
pie.
every year that passes,' Admiral
Dewey said, makes me think that the
people of this country have a growing
realization of the Importance of the
victory of the American feet eight
years ago, bringing about, as it did,
the possession of the Philippines by
the United States.
"There are those who say that we
should give up the Philippines, but l
think that If we want the trade of the
Pacific, and we certainly do want it,
we must hold the Philippines. They
are essential to our success in COM
merce in the Pacific. and we have in
them a base which is invaluable. Spain
for hundreds of years had an immense
with the far east, and her
success was due to her possession of
the Philippines. 1t is essential that we
have a base for our army and u
navy in the far east.
''The people of the nation appreciate
more and more the value of the is
lands and the work done by the Off
GERS and men of the American fleet on
that day"
Admiral Dewey has written the
whole history of the battle Of Manila
Bay, but it is locked up and will not
be published, at least not for Il long
time. He told of some details of the
fight hitherto unknown.
'When we We're at Hongkong," he
said. .'our situation was critical. We
had but little ammunition, and had it
not been for the timely arrival of the
cruiser Baltimore forty-eight hours be-
fore our departure we would have been
in a serious predicament.

once begin to lay plans for the fall
! election and the picking of men for
nominees for mayor, councllmen,
etc, but the difference of political
creeds will not be so strong or bitter
as to lessen the enthusiasm with
which all lent their hands and shout
ders to the wheel to secure the trans
formation into a borough.
Members of the committee and 9th
er interested residents and property
J owners in Carteret and Chrome told
yesterday Of the chief reasons for ia
voring their formation into a bor-
ough. They asserted that it will
mean $4,000 or more a year to them
for Improvement of roads, and the
like, and that the cry raised by the
Woodbridge opponents of the move
ment that Woodbridge township
badly needs the taxes from Carteret
and Chrome to meet bonds, including
the sewer bond issue, was not wholly
justified. because, as they say, they
will be required to carry and pay
their share of the bonds and other ex-
penses.
They declare that the people in the
territory included in the act of the
legislature are we'll able to maintain
the responsibilities of a borough.
They say they did not get their share
of improvements.
Handed Out the Ballots.
AS voters entered the polling place
yesterday members of the committee
handed them ballots with the word
against crossed out with pencil
leaving the word for which with
the few words following made the
ballot a favorable one for the adop-
ton of the law. Such remarks as
'There's only one ticket todayl" and
It's all one-sided!" were frequent,
and the Woodbridge people were not
to be seer around, as they had realiz-
ed how futile would be their pres
! ence and persuasion.
The members of the board of regis
| try and election were William B. Kel-
Ter, James Walsh. John Harrington,
and William H. Walling.
1t being election day, the saloons
we're not supposed to be open, and
the front doors of the saloons were

in the committee and on the floor of

spoiled the impression he was trying

conceals the facts that the b. & A.
tax rebate in 1901 was urged by promi-
nert Democrats; that one of them,
Charles II. Osgood of Lewiston. was a
member of the railroad committee at
the time and supported the measure;
and that it received the vote of practi-
cally all the Democrats in the Legis-
he was a member Of the Legislature
which passed one of these tax rebate
bills and that he did not say word
against it. If these bills were dis
creditablc. the Democratic party in
general and Mr.. Davis in particular
have a lame record on them. But
he carefully avoids revealing the part
which he and his party had in them.
He is using for partisan purposes
actions for which he by support or
acquiescence cannot escape share of
the responsibility, and he does this
by method of avoidance and conceal
ment. He may think this fair play,
but it does not so appear to others.

MAINE EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Thinking Means Republican Victory
GArOostOok Republican,

tAr0OStOok Republican.)
State election is now less than three
weeks away, and all indications point
to about the usual Republican plurali-
ties. The voters of the State-a ma
Jority of them. at least-know when
the State has been Well governed, when
wise laws have been enacted, when the
funds of the State have been frugally
handled, when the veal of the State has
always been at the fore by those i'm
charge, and will register their conf
dence in the wise administration of
Gov. Cobb by dropping another ballot
for his reelection on Monday, Sept. d.
There may have been mistakes made,
probably there We're. but the whole
sale charges of extravaganza and
waste made by the Democrats are with
out foundation.
The Democratic party has always
been party of negation, of negative
ideas and thoughts and for it to branch
out on any other line during a polit-
ical campaign is out. of the ordinary.
Their charges and insinuations will set
people to thinking. and when people
think and argue the case in their own
mind then is Republican victory assur-
ed
