LABOR MEN SEE
CITY HALL RING
IN BUNC0 CAME

Yesterday afternoon the PAYERS and
Founders union discussed the plan by
| which they believed that the city hall
! authorities are preparing to hand both
| them and the public a lemon"
The men had received an frtima ton
on Saturday OF the plans which the de-
partment OF public works was preparing
and had proposition before them from
the department that was expected TO be
met with the satisfaction OF the men.
In this the department has been disap-
pointed. for today there was handed to
the foreman OF the men at work copy
Of a set of resolutions drafted at the
meeting yesterday. in which is set forth
that the men insist ubon just what the
members OF the special committee voted
TO give them at this time with the full
s-hour day next spring. The men want
also the same rate OF pay whether the
work be shovelng snow or laying stones
on the street.
The attitude OF the city hall politicians
at the city hall previous to cleo
tion, when Mayor Dyer was max
ing his Intellectual grand-stand play
for votes. was roundly denounced ct
the meeting; and the attempt which the
department OF public works is thought
by the workingmen to be making TO be-
fuddle the situation by arousing the tax
payers by alleged false alarms as to in
creased taxation was severely criticised
It is claimed that these representations
are false.
The labor men claim that the city hall
ring wants to increase the salaries Of its
political friends and seeks to fool the tax
payers into believing that the increase
will he because OF the demands OF the
city laborers. They say they have no
grievance against any OF the departments,
being better paid IL the city can stand It.

shall rest whore II belongs.
The labor men claim that there will he
no need OF any increase of wages and
they have never saked for one All they
have asked. they say is that a city la
borer shall be paid for every hour that he
works. but that his day shall be limited
to hours for the present and TO s after

They say that the plan at the city hall
Is for the men to he paid not on an in
creased scale OF 10 per cent. but that tho
rate will be the same Hence, what will
become OF that $40 600 they cannot tell,
unless II is 10 be given to other city en-
ployes
They say that under the plan as out
lined 10 them the men will be paid at pre-
cisely the same rate as now, that a man
who now receives 81. 2.25 per day OF 10 hours
win receive 81 per day Of nine hours: and
while the public may he led TO believe
that the men are getting one hours pay

CHARGES FIRST HEARD.
/ The charges against Rev. DIR. Crapsey
were first heard by an ecclesiastical court
at Batavia, and after trial which at
tracted wide attention. the court reported
a verdict sustaining the charges.
An appeal from his decision was heard
by the board OF review OF the Protestant

There were several sessions extending
over a period OF several weeks and the
noted counsel who appeared for and
against DIR. Crspsey in the Batavia trial
appeared and reargued the entire case at
length.
BOARD OF REVIEW.
The final session of the board OF re-
view was held last week and at its con

decision had been reached but would not
be announced until II had been served
upon DR. Crapsey and the bishop OF the
western New York diocese.
This decision which was announced
today apparently ends the Crapsey case.
Under 1t Dr. CrapSey will be suspended
