GLAZER GIRLS
LEAVE WORK
Delaware Leather Company
Employees Walk Out Because
Offered Piece Work
VERY ANGRY OVER DEAL

Thirty-three pretty girl hnlshers em-
ployed by the Delaware Leather Com
pany at their plant Thirteenth and
Lombard streets, packed up their
aprons and lunch boxes at o'clock
this morning and marched out in a
body, because. so they say the firm
had asked them to work piece work at
lower wages paid at other shops in-
stead OF the weekly salary hitherto re-
ceived. the proposed change meaning
more work and less pay.
A big delegation Of the girls gathered
aruond an Evening journal reporter at
Seventh and King streets this morn
ing and with many giggles and threats
TO hug him ~ he didn't quote them
correctly, told their side OF the story
thus:
Before Friday Of last week we got
81 a. week, with a chance to clean up
our machines on Saturday. on that
day We were informed by the super
intendent tNlt piece work rate
wuold be paid for our work Of glazing
and finishing. which We quickly saw
would cause us to work much harder
and turn out more work for even less
money than we got before this, be-
sides obliging as 20 clean the ma
chimes in our own time.
'sThe next day two Of US went to ths
firm and told them that we wanted
/ our old wages or as much for piece
work as other shops pay. but were pu'
on for couple Of days while thel
reached a decision. Yesterday W.
sent two more girls to see them anl
they got no satisfaction. so this morn
ing we made another attempt and wer
fatty refused. Then we walked out
1--WE don't belong 20 any union, hu
don't intend 10 work for less and there
by undermine girls im other shops. w
would all go hack for the old wages
but never viii for the cut price piecl
work.
why" continued the girl who spokl
for the others, "in other shops thel
pay two and three cents more a dozei
skins for the same kind Of work thai
they offered us. which OF course, W.
couldn't stand for. All the rest Of tn
people AT the works glory In our spunl
and say we VIII WIN out but any
way we are an going 20 Philadelphia
Tomorrow tohunt other jobs wher
they appreciate good girls who can d.
the best Of work"
Factory Proprietor's Side
When interviewed this morning th'
proprietors Of the plant stated that tn
piece rate offered had been computed
on the amount OF work done at In
weekly wage rate formerly paid, AM
would have netted the girls as much
If not more, at thee nd Of the week a
they formerly received They ais
stated that they had told the girls tina
they would be guaranteed az least thei
former pay. with the opportunity &
make much more, II they worke
harder. IL was stated that severa
new girls were hired this morning an
that within a few days a fun fore
would be at work.

 will.

St. Louis, Mo. Sept, 5--Ben Won Phul, accompanied by his wife. left St. Louis last night for New York. to try to have Miss Sa1lie Taylor, great grand daughter of President Zachary Taylor, discharged from the psychopathic Bellevue Hospital. She is alleged to have been put there for the purpose of keeping her out of the way of her employer, Mrs. Laura Blossom, of St. Louis whose wealth is estimated at more than a million dollars
 It is alleged by the Won Phurs. that rich New Yorker who by marriage is distantly related to Mrs. Blossom. has for a long time, been envious Of the intimate friendship that Miss Tay- Tor has been occupying at the home of Mrs. Blossom, and is afraid that she would inherit the fortune Mrs. Blossoms only son died three weeks ago.
 Miss Taylor. who is a trained nurse. is a sister of Mrs Von Phul.
 It appears that Mrs. Ben Won Phul has received letter signed by Miss Taylor from Carmen, N. Y., where It had been picked up alongside rail- road track. The letter from Miss Tay- Tor said she was being held a prisoner and asked for help.

Ex-Governor Taylor of Kentucky ts
 Promised Any Protection
 Louisville, Sept, 5--Judge Robert L. Stout, of Versailles, judge of the four- teenth judicial district in which the Goebel murder was committed seven years ago, gave a statement today de- claring that he alone is authorized to grant immunity to w. s. Taylor, Ken tucky's fugitive ex-governor. if Taylor will return to Kentucky to testify in the Powers case.
 Taylor was correct when he gave out the statement in Indianapolis that neither Governor Beckham nor com mon-wealths attorney Robert Franklin has power to grant immunity from ar rest' said Judge stout ITO be sure. the governor could pardon him out right but he Is powerless to grant im- munity from arrest unless he does ls- sue a full pardon. MT. Franklin Is powerless to enforce "a promise of ina munity."
 The bench warrant for Taylor's arr rest was issued from the Franklin cir cult court and Is returnable there and there only. have made no statement heretofore as to what I would do. put if Taylor will only consent to return to Kentucky to testify in the Powers | case I will not only see that he IS | not arrested, but I will see that he IS safely returned to Indianapolis.
