FEDERATION OF LABOR.
Considerable Business Is Trans
acted Tuesday.

Austin, May 16.-Reports to the
Texas State Federation of Labor from
local unions show a prosperous condi-
ton of affairs.
Chairman Peteet submitted the re.
port of the legislative board The re.
port was adopted.
Upon motion of Delegate johnson of
Galveston the press committee was in
structed to commend the press for the
fair and correct report of the govern
Drs speech to the delegates on Mon
day afternoon. Mr.. Johnson said that
it had been rumored that the governor
had snubbed the delegates. and he
wished to correct this impression. The
motion was carried amid applause
An interesting feature of the report
was the report from the Farmers I'm
ion Of Corpus Christi. Its report was
the only enc from the farmers read
before the convention. The delegate
from this union said that recently
the farmers and placed the union label
upon every crate and barrel of fruit
or vegetables shipped from Corpus
demand the label upon the boxes of
fruit they bought. He gave number
of interesting facts regarding the I'M
ion and was enthusiastically applaud,
ed upon conclusion.
resolution thanking Governor
Campbell for his address to the dele
gates was adopted
Reports from Fort Worth showed un.
usual progress in the matter of in
creased wages and better hours.
President Cunningham and Walton
Peteet were thanked for their lahors.
The committee on laws reported
recommending. among other things,
that no delegate be allowed to take
his seat in the convention unless he
had at least three union labeled arti-
cles upon his person, and that the
auditing committee be required to meet
three days in advance of the regular
session of the convention to pass upon
the secretary's books. 1t was also rec.
commended that no man whose poll
tax was unpaid be allowed to act as a
delegate in this convention
A long discussion on this last clause
followed, it being declared that 1t
would knock the ladies out of repre-
sentation. 1t was tabled, 49 to A.
Then came long discussion of the
label cause, one member stating that
a man who would not try to get union
| made goods did net do so because he
would rather purchase "scab" materi
al. He was applauded by some and
called down by others. but in the end
the clause was adopted.

EFFECTIVE TN SHORT TIME
According to Advices Received at City
Of Boston Leading Cotton Mill Men
of Southern New England VIII Soon
Raise Wage Scale.

Boston, May 16.-According to ad-
vices from leading cotton mill centers
of southern New England, fully $4,000
operatives will have their waaes adj
vanced about 10 per cent. beginning
Monday, May 27. The latest upward
movement in mill wages originated at
Fall River, where the new agreement
recently announced provides for a
higher schedule May 81. About 10000
hands are employed by the Fall River
mills. Nearly $4,000 operatives at New
Bedford will also receive 10 per cent
advance, announcement of which was
made Tuesday. In Providence mill
circles 1t is stated that practically
every cotton mill in Rhode Island will
increase wages probably about 10 per
cent, on May 81, or week later. This
action of Rhode Island mill owners
will affect about $4,000 employees in
that state, eastern Connecticut and
half dozen Massachusetts, villages
where factories are controlled by Prov.
idence mill interests.
AT tnls Tune IL is not KNOWN WHAT
action, If any, will be taken by the
mills of northern New England. Three
print cloth mills of New Hampshire
and one of Maine usually adopt the
Fall River wage list, and it is probable
they will make the change when the
mills of that city do so.
Canadian cotton mills are also reyis-
ing their wage list Half a dozen cor
porations of Quebec province and two
mills at ST. John, N B., have advanced
wages about 10 per cent this month.
