Trying to Collect License.

The Mayor of Ensley today fined four conductors and the agent of the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power Company, $50 each on a charge of do- ing business without license. A few weeks ago license was fixed for the big corporation at .$3,000 per annum The company protested against such a big price and q reduction was made to $3,000 This. too, was objected to, but the Aldermen of Ensley would not re- cede from their position.
 No attention was paid to the matter and the Mayor ordered the arrest of employees to start the ball rolling. An appeal has been taken and the matter will be taken through the courts to establish the rights of cities in fixing the amount of licenses against corpo- rations. It Is understood that Pratt City, which lies between Birmingham and Ensley. may take a similar proce- dure to test their right in the matter.

NOTES FROM THE LABOR FIELD:


Unless their demands are granted
three thousand machinists in Chicago
will go >on strike when their present
demands of the men include shorter
working day. better shop conditions,
and many minor details that have been
refused by employers in the signing of
previous agreements with the men.
Owing to the scarcity and high price
of negro labor, experiments are to he
made in Florida with Chinese labor in
the naval stores camps
The Board OF Trade Labor Gazette,
published by the British government.
states that the eight-hour day in gov
eminent workshops is a success from
the employers point of view. No ex-
ira cost has been incurred by the re-
duction of hours nor has the output
of work been diminished.
In France the number of trade
unions has doubled since 1898. There
are now 1926 unions with 1884
members (including S69,405> women).
AS in America, many of the unions are
federated.
A call has been issued for the fifth
annual convention of the United Cloth
Hat and Cap Makers of Moth Ameri-
ca, to be held in New York city, com.
mencing May 1. This is the organiza-
ton that is waging a bitter warfare
on Debs' Industrial Workers of the
World
The official organ of the Interna-
tional Typographical union, which rep
resents the great army of proof-read-
Eers as we'll, is not in favor of the pro-
posed reform in spelling, as advocated
by Andrew Carnegie and many others.
Cincinnati is preparing to entertain
the biennial convention OF the Com
mercial Photographers union, which
meets in that city In May. The gather
ing will bring together about 800 tele-
graph operators from all parts of the
. United States and Canada. Many inn
portant matters are scheduled for
consideration. Probably the most inn
7 portant is the strike clause, which it
is desired to make more elastic.
On June ssnext, the Order Of Rail-
road Telegraphers, which embraces
the United States, Canada and Mexi-
co, will celebrate the twentieth ami
] yersary Of Its organization.

London, April 6.-The annual boat
race between the crews of Oxford and
Cambridge universities, the greatest
aquatic event of the year in England,
takes place tomorrow over the his
toric Thames course from Putnoy to

general feeling that the-race this year
Will be close contest, and as conse-
quence great public Interest is mani
tested In the event. Both crews took
their final practice spin today, several
thousand people, goodly number be-
longing to the betteing fraternity,
turning out to form their final judg-
ments on the performances of the two
crews. Cambridge is slight favorite,
though the Oxonians have had the
benefit of the supervision of Fletcher
White, the celebrated coach, and ap-
pear to be in splendid form.
This will be the sixty-second boat
race between the two universities.
Oxford has been the winner in thirty
two contests and Cambridge in TWEEN
ty-eight, while the one of 1887 was a
dead heat. The start tomorrow will
be made between and o'clock, LON
don time, the Thames being at high
tide at 1:40.
The members of the two crews, their
weights and the colleges they repre-
sent are as follows:
