IRVINE HITS AT CARNEGIE,
Says Pittsbure Is tho Ready Answer to
h Ir0nmaster's Book.

Says PfttsburG Is the Ready Answer to
h Ironmaster's Book.
The Rev. Alexander Irvine. parlor
Socialist. in the pulpit OF the Rev. Percy
Grants church last evening talked OF
Book" Mr.. Irvine seemed to think that
Pittsburg was so much Of an answer that
there was nothing left Of the book. and he
begged MIR. Carnegie not TO perpetrate
another book while tho Pittsburg the
world knows Is on the map.
-Mr. Carnegie's story Of the eight hour
day said Mr.. Irvine. "does not seem to
hold very we'll in his own industry. for
put Of 1900 men there only 100 have an
eight hour day; the others work q twelve
hour day seven days q week.
when MIR. Carnegie talks Of an eight
hour day and says that wages have gone
up we naturally turn to the Pittsburg
Survey, and that tells US the story plainly.
Low wages rule for the great majority OF
the workers. The wages are adjusted
to the single man and the lodging house,
not to the head Of a family. And the
women's wages are still lower.
"And take health and sanitation. The
Investigators for the Survey found in 1907
1000 hospital cases and 500 Of these were
on leaving the hospitals oripples for life
Fifty left with one leg. And 42 per cent.
Of these workers were American born
citizens. These men get less than SO
a week. Five hundred were killed in
stantly. Ffty-four per cont. OF the
families we're left to bear the entire ex-
pense Of burial alone. Five hundred
persons die there yearly Of typhoid fever
just because Of filth. Congress has given
Sl7,0 0 900 to widen the river there so that
Mr.. Carnegie's products could be carried
Oh, but not II cents to prevent filth there.
TO keep up q force OF 10000 In Carne-
gie's plant ii 1000 men were employed In
a year and to keep up q foroe OF 1000 In
one grade 5000 were employed because
so many men could not survive the con
ditions there. Some OF the daughters
have gone into the streets to sell their
bodies; and this man talks Of the de6truc-
ton Of American homesl Why, that Is q
Carnegie!
.The courts OF Pennsylvania are 800
preachers in Pittsburg pretending to ad-
vance the Word of God and silent on
Pittsburg-and perhaps very warm in
denunciation Of New York. We hear OF
their getting q 100000 gift for foreign
missionary work on the banks OF the Nile
while Pttsburg has such conditions as

@Better no libraries, no science, no art.
than advancement over the bodies Of these
thousands Of people. The cost Is too big.
too dear.

MERCER. Pa. May s.-Mer Ger county
and all this end Of Pennsylvania Is greatly
interested tonight in the Boyle kidnap-
ping trial. II Judge A. j. Williams should
heed the advice offered by many he
would grant the convicted Boyles new
trials tomorrow and later grant them
afchange Of venue. At least, the Judge
would permit Boyle and his wife to make
~.Stotsgnents- before sentence IL passed.
Mercer county wants TO know the man
behind" in the Whitla kidnapping case.
Asked to-day for some explanation OF
his ey expression Of yesterday while arguing
for Mrs. Boyle, ex-Judge s. N. Miller
said he would add nothing. but would
stand by what he had said. These are
his words:
Il have been in this court for thirty
nine years, but in no case have ! seen
20 much money OF so much influence
brought to bear TO prejudice the minds
Of jurors before they were sworn"
n Mr.. Miller, then specified that the county
papers. read by prospective jurors, had
been filed with BIASED matter 'by some
one for a purpose and declared that
honest people who wanted to read the
truth about the cas- had to find it in put
side newspapers.
gLate last night Ia his cell James Boyle
declared that the desire OF his life
vas to expose the man responsible for
the kidnapping plot and whose name he
declares the Court has not permitted
him or his wife 10 mention.
An / want is two minutes on the stand
In that court room and III make some Of
the tony ones of this Mercer county jump
out of the window" said Boyle. THAT
gentleman who framed up this deal but
whose nj me is being protected | hear is

tend TO expose him to the world, even il
] have to. DO it from Riverside peniten-
tiery. He was In court one day and daren't
look roe in the eye. Why he even sent
letters to this jail to me threatening 10
have me sent r. an insane asylum IL I
ever mentioned his name. Fine; but I'll
get him"
Mrs. Boyle said. Il wish some fair
papers would print this as coming from
me, that Mrs. Helen Boyle thinks kid
mapping is no so bad as murder, and at
least we did not throw the child from a
fourth story window. This is ambiguous
Of course to the outside world but there
10 one gentleman who understands what
| mean. Yes. he will understand. and
will grbw more white perhaps, The world
ia good time will know all about this too.
II they will give me a chance Tomorrow
