their earnings into the fund to support
their aged and incapacitated members,
who receive S4 a week. This plan of
caring for the unfortunate has been in
existence about two years and has
proved a decided success. Few trade
unions can show an average earning
capacity for its members that comes
anywhere near these figures.
Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, in a
statement Just issued, says the unions
of America have today a greater MEM
bership than ever before in the history
of the labor movement and that the
membership is growing fast. There are
now III national and international
unions, representing nearly $4,000 local
unions, affiliated with the federation.
There are thirty-six federations and
541 central bodies and local trade
unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor.
From volume issued by the census
office recently some interesting figures
on the growth of the meat packing in
dustries at Chicago are obtained. Be
slaughtering establishments decreased
from 3S to 80, the average number of
wage earners decreased from 25,345 to
22,613. Notwithstanding the decrease
in the number of plants and workmen
the value of the products increased
from $256, 527 ,949 to 1868 5S1, ,4S6. This
spells consolidation, the economies of a
trust fewer jobs for the wage earners,
more work by those who do the work
and more profit by those who hold the
stock.
Because of it's refusal to suspend the
Reed faction of the electrical workers.
the American Federation of Labor has
revoked the charter of the st. Louis
trades and labor assembly. The dis
pute regarding the McNulty and Reed
followers as to which organization was
the bona fide one has been settled by
the A. F. of L. in favor of President
McNulty. The charter of the Syracuse,
n. Y, central body was recently re-
voked for the same cause.
Much interest has been aroused in
the coming address of John Sandgren,
representative of the Swedish strikers,
who will speak at the Labor Temple,
October 10. Mr.. Sandgren is known as
a strong, eloquent speaker, and has
done much for his cause.

THREE MEN UNDER ARREST
ON HORSE THEFT CHARGE
Three Brothers Named Paine Taken
Into Custody and Accused of
Stealing Four Animals

Through the efforts of Deputy Sher-
iff Harry Wright it is believed that
the men who stole four horses belong
ing to Mrs A. Seeger of Tehachapi
August 10 and later sold the animals
for $500 in Los Angeles have been
captured.
The men arrested are three brothers
named Paine, and two of them were
brought to the county jail from Wyo-
ming yesterday to be identified by the
purchasers of the animals. The other
brother is under arrest at Tehachapi.
Deputy Wright says he learned the
identity of the men by tracing the
saddles which they returned to a
Mexican.
The Mountain View ranch reported
to the sheriffs office yesterday the
theft of four mules, with an offer of
$50 for the arrest of the thieves.

After having been put aside for
three days, the Imperial valley land
fraud cases will come up again today
in the United States district court in
the Tajo building. oscar Lawler, as
