GENERAL STRIKE
PROPOSAL SILLY

TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 15.-Just as
the convention of the American fede-
ration of labor was about to adjourn
for the day a telegram was received
from Washington announcing that inc
stay asked by the attorneys for Presi-
dent Gompers, Vice President Mitchell
and Secretary Morrison in the proceed
ings against them for contempt of
court had been denied by the court of
appeals of the district of Columbia.
A telegram signed by the three de-
PENDANTS was sent to their counsel in
Washington asking when it would be
necessary for them to put in an ap-
pearance 10 avoid 4orfeiting their
bonds, which amount to $4,000, and
stating that they would like to remain
in Toronto until the close of the con-
vention Saturday night.
The suggestion that the convention
be adjourned to Washington in the
event of the departure of Gompers,
Mitchell and Morrison was taken seri-

be prepared.
Many delegates have expressed dis
approval of the plan suggested by the
central labor union of Philadelphia

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-Labor leaders

plan advocated by the central fedora
ton of Philadelphia, that the 100000
members of the American federation OF
labor go on strike for two weeks, thus
tying up industry throughout the coun-
try, should the United States supreme
court decide the contempt cases against
Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison.
Only one local labor leader approved
of the Philadelphia plan. He was de-
lighted with it, This man was Charlie.

But other labor leaders, such as Sam

plan. Prince said:

NATIVES SHARE
IN INDIA'S RULE

SIMLA, British India, Nov 15.-The
plan for the reform of the British
administration of India, which was
outlined by Lord Morley, secretary of
state for India in the house of lords
last December, designed to give India
an embryo constitution admitting the
natives to an important share in the
legislation of the country, went into
effect today.
Thus begins new and striking
spoch in the history of British rule in
India. Under the program, all religions
and special interests may elect repre-
sentatives to the viceroy's and provin-
cial councils; but in view of recent
anarchistic outbreaks a safeguard is
provided in a qualification which en-
powers the imperial and provincial
governments TO declare ineligible those
persons whose election is considered
contrary TO public interests.
The viceroy's council will have $40
members instead of 126, as formerly,
of whom 1876 will be elected, as against
80 elected heretofore. The functions
of the council will be considerably en-
larged, and it will be considerably en-
larged, and it will be enabled to take
an active part in the making of the
budget and all legislation.

the liner got away in time The strike
still continues, in spite of the impor-
tation of new men, who join the strik-
ers as soon as they arrive. The strike
was brought about py the increase in
the cost of living here, which itself
has been caused by a change in the
local currency. Chilean currency, which
has been the medium of trade here,
has been thrown out of circulation by
an edict from the Chinese dealers re-
fusing to longer accept it. At one
blow a change in the currency system
that the government has attempted to
institute for fifty years was made.

LABOR BALKS At
JAPANESE UNIONS
QUESTION OF ADMITTING PACIFIC
COAST ORGANIZATIONS ROUSES
TORONTO CONVENTION.

TORONTO, Nov. 15-The question of
including organizations of the Japanese
on the Pacific Coast in the American
Federation of labor was debated at the
federation convention here today. Much
opposition to the idea was raised
among the delegates and it was re-
ferred to the executive council.
Declaring the systematic colonization
Of oriental races in insular possessions
OF the United States and the threaten
ed and partially accomplished extension
of that system to the Pacific coast
Constitutes a standing danger, not
only to the domestic peace, but to the
continuance of the friendly relations
between the nations concerned" De-
legate Kelley of the San Francisco la
Dor council introduced a resolution
asking that the terms of the Chinese
exclusion act be enlarged and extended
so as permanently to exclude from the
! United States and it's insular territory
all Asiatics other than those exempt
ed under the present act. The resolu-
ton was referred to a committee
The Japanese question came up dur
ing the discussion of a report sub
mitted by the committee on organiza-
tion favoring starting unions among
farm employees and unskilled workmen
in small towns, these unions to be
chartered by the federation 1t was
brought out during the discussion that
Japanese labor unions would come un-
der this head. When this was pre-
sented many delegates were ready
strongly to oppose that feature of the
report
The matter probably will come up
agsin, as 4 report is expected from the
executive council.

a resolution declaring the United
States steel corporation to be the
most formidable and aggressive
enemy with which the organized Ia
bor movement has to contend.
