WOMAN MADE AMI 81 siFT jsT n
\. eide BY pirse INTO
The RIVER.

PlTTSBtfRG, sept 49, Mrs. Anna
Clark. q progressing and digHiasd
woman Of 60 years. made q desperate
but inehectual attempt at suicide
shortly before midnight, under the
very eyes Of policemen and passersby.
She was prevented from wading to.
her death in tie swift current Of the.
Allegheny river nnder the Sixth street
bridge on the north side Of the river
only after a struggle with the police.
Her clothes we're torn from her AMI
the policeman thoroughly soaked be.
fore the woman was rescued.
The would.be suicide called at the
toll office of the bridge shortly after
| II o'clock. She sccosted Tonkeeper
John Smith, who las frequently had
experiences with would.be suicides,
and asked him the nearest way 10 tae
waters edge. Her elegant costume
and dignifled air impressed him. He
readily gave the Information and the
woman started up Federal street.
Shortly afterward 1t occurred to the
tollkeeper that the woman, despite
her handsome adornments of gown and
tewelry, wore an unusually woebegone
expression. He decided to investigate.
Looking up Federal street he saw
nothing of her. Then he glanced over
the bridge rail. A searchlight from
down the river was playing on the
point at the time, and Smith saw the
woman swiftly approach the rivers
brink. He gave the alarm and officers
Henry and Capp responded promptly.
By the time they reached the edge of
the river the woman was in the water
waist deep. Henry dashed in and drag
ged her to the shore. She struggled
violently. Later she was taken to Cen
tral station. There she stated she
lived at 1887 Friendship avenue Al
Iegneny. She said she had been IN iii
bealth for months. ..I 10

The Cost Of Strikes.

me CCSL VI 0ITIkSSs
The naval establishment of the Unit
ed States is often cited as a cause
of expense that may be regarded as
an insurance fund devoted to the pro-
lection of the Industrial prosperity OF
the country. But figures prove that
II organized labor would calculate the
cost of contests with employers, it
would learn that the men who in the
long run pay the majority of the taxes
Of the country and support the navy,
not to speak of the army, are burden
ed far more by their unions than they
are by either the "JackIes" or the
Tommy Atkinses."
The loss to the country caused by
strikes during the twenty years from
1881 to 1900 inclusive, amounted to q
7G9,1GO working days, or 7,G41 years,
eqaalling nearly one.third of the entire
Christian era. The total direct anan-
cIal loss reached the enormous sum
of s5OO,OOO,OOO.
Instructive as these figures are, they
are reinforced by other statistics,
gathered by the Bureau Of Labor dur
ing the subsequent five years covering
the year 1905 and a total period OF
twenty-five years. This report, which
Is not yet OFF the press, will show that
the total number of strikes in the
United States during twenty-five years
was 36,757, and Of lockouts only 1,546,
Or 3S,3O3 labor disturbances Of both
kinds. The total number of establish
ments involved was 1879, 945. The total
number Of strikers during the twenty
five years was C72S,O4S, while the
number OF persons locked out was only
1929, making total of 7,44421v
wage.earners affected.
The statistics as compiled, show
that during the period of twenty years
cited, the loss to employees in estab-
lishments in which strikes occurred
amounted to the enormous sum OF
$257, SG3,47 The loss to employees
from lockouts for the same period was
$4S,S19,745, or a total loss to employees
by reason of these two classes Of in
dustrial disturbances of $S0G,6SS,22S.
The number of Establishments lnvolv-
ed in strikes during this period was
1175O9, making an average loss to
which strikes occurred of $2,194. The
strikes threw out Of employment g.
1O5,G94 wage earners, making an av-
eage loss of sac to each.
1t will be observed that the lock-
outs we're less expensive. The num-
Der of establishments involved in this
class of disputes was only 1888, but
the average los was higher, being to
each employer $4,915, while the nam
Der Of employees dismissed was 5O4,-
9O7, making an average loss Of $97 to
each wage carer. Combining these
figures 1t would seem that the wage
loss during these twenty years to en-
ployes because Of these industrial
troubles, was sSOC6SS,22S, and the
number of establishments Involved
was 127,442, while The two causes
threw out of employment the enormous
army of 6.61o,l1O wage earners. The.
combined figures show an average
wage loss of SAG to each person in
yolved.
