One OF the most interesting events
Of last week was the call OF
he Labor Delegation upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt. There was about q
hundred and fifty of them in all,
presidents, secretaries and treasurer'
Of labor organizations from all over
the country and they were headed
by Gomper's, the great labor leader
TIE President gave them a very
positive, straight from the shoulder
talk ID which he took Issue with
them and opposed several of their
demands. lie was particularly EN-.
phatio and even derls,ve with re
ference 50 their demand that the
eight hour labor rule should be APP
piled to the Isthmus of Panama.
Tie told them that there were prac-
lica'ly no American laborers there
aud that the West Indian negroes
employed IN digging the cana
would not work much mere than
half of their time when they pre-
tended to work, aud that the only
way to get any work from them was
extending the hours. The American
people are indebted to the President
and Congress for The firm stand
that they have taken with regard TO
the hours Of labors on the lsthmus
for according TO the testimony 0 f
the Engineers, it will save the conn-
try many millions OF dollars. The
President also put his foot down on
the ant,.injunction requests Of tue la
Dor organizations but told them tina,
while the general government had
secured m,ny mi functions against
other monppolies during his adminsi
tration il had not vet had an occasion
TO issue an injunction, against
labor monopoly. Tie said IL effect
however that the lack of occ .-ion
was the only thing tina, had prevent
ed the procuring Of lnjnnctlons
The same day the labor delegates
called on Speaker Cannon with pro
tests and complaints. lie talked TO
them extemporaneously, quite faml-
liarly calling the President broth
er Gompers" bu, displayed more Of
the sudpite1' IN mode .fortiter IN re

'at,ves were no; pleased with their
days work may b. inferred from

On last Monday the Supreme
Court of the State of Louisiana

sions in thirty seven cases, among
the number the water works case
of this city. The following Is re
port Of the case.
State ex rel Edwin 5. Broussard
District Attorney, vs.. George w
Dallas ct ais:
The Supreme Court has no ap
pellate jurisdiction Of u suit be
tween contestants for a pubic OF
fee to which no salary or pecunl
any perquisite is attached
Neither the importance OF the OF
fee nor the amount OF public
funds to he administered can be
considered in determining a jnrls
dicison, which in such cases is
based on a purely peculary stan
dard.
For the same reason the court
Of appeal is without jurisdiction
and this appeal therefore connoi
transferred 10 that tribunal.
II is therefore ordered that the
appeal herein be dismissed Tor

Der of wealthy New York men of the com

numbers. In order that the bodies may be
more distinguishable Mrs. Capron has
placed at the head of each grave a small
flag. The numbers of the graves follow:
1905, 1892, 1444, 145023, 1901.

of Col. Porter In the afternoon and made

tice with a rifle accidentally shot himself

NEEDS OF CAMP GOOD WILL.
Wednesday, June 90, Set Apart as
Donation Day,

Donation day" for Camp Good Will,'
next Wednesday. June 20, Is expected to be
the occasion of a good deal of interest.
The way in which the people of Washington
have come forward to assist in the various
lines of work connected with this camp,
which is now starting upon its third year,
demonstrates conciustveiy that the need
which existed is to be met not merely by
large contributions of a few people, though
these are vitality important, but also by the
general interest and cordial support of the
entire community. Contributions of goods
and money have already commenced to
come in, and the committee hopes TO secure
Its budget and solicit most of the articles
needed before July i.
Among the things needed, stated on
the circular just issued are: Cook stove,
cots, blankets, sheets, pillows, pillow cases.
tents, chairs, tables, camping furniture,
baby carriages, baby cribs, games, swings,
hammocks, bicycles. bathing suits, saddle,
window screens, lumber. garden supplies
animal feed, horse, cows, chickens, pets.
The suggestion has been made that many
housekeepers, by searching through closets
and storerooms, could find few little arti-
cles of household necessity which could be
sacrificed without apparent loss. and which
would reduce to very small figure the
necessary equipment expense
Acknowledgement is made by the commit
ece secretary, Mr.. Wallace Hatch, of the
following articles given for the benefit OF
Camp Good Will:'' Saddle. clothing, pic
lures, magazines, knives and forks and
baskets.
