Rrewery Workmen ousted.

The International Brewery Work
ers' union, comprising 400 locals, was
expelled recently from the American
Federation of Labor by order of
President Gompers.
The present trouble is due to a dis
pute over jurisdiction affecting engin-
GERS and firemen employed in brew
cries. The brewery workers claim this
jurisdiction, while the federation holds
the engineers and firemen are entitl.
ed to separate organization and recog-
milton. They were fOrmeraly so or

HURRY CAUSES WRECKS.
SO Says P. H. Morrissey of Train
mems Brotherhood.


Grand Master P. H. Morrissey of
the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
in discussing railway wrecks and the
cause and remedy for the same, says:
There is too much business for the
railroads, too much hurry in conduct
ing trains and too few employees to
insure the proper degree OF safety to
employe and traveller.
"The state railways of German en-
ploy more than three times the num-
Der of men per mile that we do, and
none can say that this does not con-
tribute to safety. Every advance in
wages here is met by counter econ
omies in operation, such as taking off
men, etc. The American railway man.
ayers as a class are capable and prac-
teal men. 1t is not their fault that
things are as they are. 1t is the fault
of the system. If they do not get the
results in operation they are likely to
be sidetracked. What, in my opinion,
the American railway systems need to
insure greater safety is more men to
man and inspect the trains, to guard
the switches and semaphores and to
patrol the tracks"

FIERCE ATTACK ON ROOSEVELT
Long, Nature Writer, Says President
Is No Sportsman,


is No Sportsman.
New York-Dr William 7 LONG
the nature writer, who was attacked
by President Roosevelt in a recent
magazine article, has fred another
broadside at the president. He ac-
cused the chief executive of plagiar-
ism and wildly pictured his crueities
OF hunting, either instances from
Roosevelt's published stories of ex-
perlences with big game. Concluding
ms statement, DR.. Long said:
IT is not your hunting to which I
object, for also am hunter. hit
your unnecessary brutality and bar
narsm. The bloody endings over
which you gloat bring little self-satis-
FACTION to a thoughtful man who has
seen the last look in the ewes of a
stricken deer and who remembers that
even this small life has it's mystery.
You are not sportsman, though
you have slain your thousands: YOU
are not naturalist, though you have
measured hides and horns; you do not
and you can not understand the
hearts of the wild things, though you
have made a grievous quantity of
them bleed. 1t needs no eyewitness
nor any affidavit to support this state
ment. You have yourself furnished all
the proof"

Admirers.
London-After the recent reassur-
reports from Santa Raphael,
anCe, regarding the improvement in
+ health Of Joseph Chamberlain, his
rival in England Saturday was some
bat of a shock to his friends, who
d gathered to meet him, both here
d at Dover.
Mr. Chamberlain was accompanied
his wife and son, Neville. When the
lin arrived at the Victoria station
was seen lying back on the cush-
ps, seemingly almost helpless. He
Pde no effort to rise until assisted by
wife and son, and it was remarked
at he made a vain attempt to raise
hat in response to a cheer from the
pwd.
MT. Chamberlain was almost carried
Ills carriage. He drove to his Lon
q residence. 1t seems that he is
tie unable to walk by himself.
Vitchings of the facial muscles sug-
sted that the effects of his recent
cure have not been completely sha-
b off.
The family authorized the follow
statement:
Mr., Chamberlain has returned much
proved in health and none the worse
the long journey. He has not yet
ae any plans, but will certainly re-
