Details of situation at New York


strike Of the commercial telegra-
pliers would become more aggressive
with the arrival of National President
Small from Chicago is declared by
the local leaders. They are not ready
for arbitration In spite of the fact
that labor men from various parts of
the country will follow Mr.. Small to
this city. Whether or not there will
be a conference after President Small
looks over the situation is problem
atical. 1t is possible the labor men
will endeavor to secure a hearing be-
fore President Roosevelt at Oyster
Bay.
Superintendent Brooks of the
Western Union, in a statement says:
II want to say with emphasis that
so far as we are concerned, the strike
Is over While there are many among
the strikers whom / should like to see
reinstated for their value as experts,
there Is not one that we would make
any special effort to get. A wrong i'm
preston has gone forth that we are
fighting organized labor: we are not
doing so, we gave our operators full
permission to join any organization
they saw fit, so long as they did not
conflict with our affairs. The West
ern Union is carrying on its normal
amount of business and we are not
overworking single operator or
member of the staff"
This statement called for an out
break from Secretary Russell, who
stated that it amused telegraphers
who knew the inner workings of the
Western Union office to see Mr..
Brooks talking high morals.
I'VE know what the Western Union
did when the Telegraphers' Union
passed resolutions that its members
would not operate gambling wires.
They put non-union men on the wires
and continued to give active assist
ance to the gambling element. We
defy the Western Union or the Pos
tai officials to name any union man
who ever violated his trust on con-
fidential message that passed through
his hands. We can prove that they
are employing men as strike-breakers
who have sold confidential messages
entrusted them over the wires"
Mr.. Russell also stated that the
statement that the telegraph compa-
nies were handling their business in a
normal way to be false. He said there
were comparatively few operators and
that most of the ones who were work.
ing were incompetent, and as a result
the public is filing very few CONNER
cial messages. The situation of the
t,pr nj M w
planning OF the bad service, reflects
the condition of the Western Union
offices.

Speaking of HOGS.

A hog belonging to K. Borson was
butchered last week by S. E. Neal,
and from the fat of the porker there
was tried out 200 pounds of lard.
Mr.. Neal does not know how much
the hog weighed but thinks 1t would
have tipped the scale at between
$50 and 500 pounds. He says it is
the biggest one he ever saw. 1t was
certainly the largest hog ever killed
in this section. The lard has been
weighed and that certainly totaled
200 pounds.
