PIECE WORK PLAN
Conference With Harris Ends With
Nothing Accomplished.

It's all off again, or all on again,
with the B. & O. Machinists strike,
according to how you look at It.
The proposed settlement is of, and
the strike is on again.
A short while ago the machinists
voted on settlement proposition Of
fered by the railroad management,
and, in the expectation that it meant
the revocation of the piece work or
der, the lodges voted in favor OF a
settlement. When they learned,
though, that the proposition was
only blind for the re-estab Ishment
of'the piece work system, every lodge
recalled its vote by wire, and the
men showed what staunch stufl
they are made of by unanimously re
jecting the proposition.
On Saturday Of last week a con,
ference was held between the strike
committee and General Superintend-
emit Harris at Baltimore, but Mr.
Harris did not change his proposition
to any extent and the committee die
not accept.
The original proposition.
The original proposition, seven be
fore its true character was known
was defeated by the men by vote Of
lis in favor to 127 against. It be
came unanimous against when thu
men did learn what it meant. I
was offered to Attorney Mulhollant
by Superintendent Harris at Chilli
cothe at the occasion of the injunc
ton hearing. which was then post
poned.

were discussing a few evenings ago.
After giving the matter some con-
sideration l do not think l should
take a stand for or against either
branch Of Union, generally known
as the Bartenders' Organization. So
far as I can learn they are both
standing for the elevation of the
craft. If it were question of union
or non-union I would not hesitate a
moment to advise the boys employed
by me what to do. At least for the
present 1 feel like letting them de-
eide what they believe to be for the

Wheeling majority. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1907-192?, 1910-10-27

This letter, as we say, was written
by Mr.. Thompson about three
months ago, and given by him to the
members of the committee when they
later called upon him. The commit
tee, at that meeting, and at subse-
auent meetings with Mr.. Thompson,
explained to him at great length and
most carefully. that the matter was
not "a little family difference" that
it was not a dispute between two I'M
ions, and that it was matter be
tween unionism and non-unionism.
That Mr.. Thompson has had nothing
in the last three months to add to his
first statement, and has remained un-
moved through all the arguments
presented by all the divisions of La
Dor, shows us conclusively that he be
llieves exactly what he wants to be-
Ilieve, and that he sets up his own
definition of unionism above the def
Iinftion reached by the Ohio Valley
Trades Assembly. the West Virginia
Federation of Labor and the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.

Brunswick cafe nonunion. For five
months the committee of Bartenders

entirely without avail. Finally. a re-

'C0eOran Again
Offers Resignation
President of Assembly Repeats Offer
to Get Out Of Office.
BARTENDERS' MATTER
WAS THE CAUSE
Resignation Gently Laid Over Until
First January Meeting.

rTSG January M0eunRs
Harry P. Corcoran again rendered
his resignation as president of the
Ohio Valley Trades and Labor AS
sembly at the meeting of that body
Sunday. His action was the result
of the bartenders' matter. He con-
tended that the union had not fol-
lowed the proper procedure, that it
should have devoted its efforts to-
ward the individual bartenders in
stead of the employers, though it
was pointed out that the union had
exhausted every effort in that direc-
ton, being hampered in every possi-
Bile way by the promoters of the dual
union, who even went to the extent
of picketing the places where meet
ings were called, and some of them
even offered personal violence. Presi-
dent e. coran was asked by several
of the delegates to withdraw his
resignation, and finally the matter
was disposed of by a motion post
poning consideration of the matter
until the first meeting in next Janu-
airy, which means, of~course, that the
president was not permitted to re-
sign, for the year of office ends with
the last meeting in December.
The discussion began with the re-
port by Delegate Hobby that Local
292 of the Bartenders International
League had placed five saloonists on
the unfair list, four of them having
violated their agreement with the
union and the fifth, Honnus Ritter,
refusing to have anything

CALIFORNIA; Freeze.

Various and unconnected snatches of
news have come from California about
the damaging cold weather they have
been having out there, but no detailed
report. The following is an extract
from letter just received by a resident
of Crescent City, from friend who is
trying to grow oranges in the citrus belt
of the Golden state. The letter bears
date of Los Angeles county, Jan. IL, and
is:
"You may have heard, and again you
may not have heard, that this part of the
country has just past through period of
low temperature which, for standing of
the mercury and duration. has not been
tically ruined. Redlands is little better.
Pomona, North Pomona, Claremont,
Ontario, Cotton, Bloomington, and
other prominent citrus points, are terri
bly, hurt. Trees are burned brown away
down, and fruit is on the ground. An
estimate just given me, from official
sources, was that Southern California's
output will be rs to 50 per cent. short
ened; and it was estimated, little less
than that of last year. An effort is be-
ing made to ship this worthless stuff,
but the railroads are alert and are refuS-
ing 10 haul any that is not in assured
good condition. And | shall be sur
prised if the Pure Food commission does
not interfere with some of the stuff that
is going into the Eastern market.
Naturally the growers in the frozen
district are sick. The orange belt out
here has undergone very considerable
shift of ground in the past Is years.
Much ground now bare, or given over
TO the raising of grain, was in grove
few years ago. The experience of hard
winters has cleared ii off. So this win
ter will clean up some more of it.
more effective still will be the check
that over-confident persons will have in
their plans to set out citrus groves re-
gardless of the mark to which the mer-
curry falls. A good deal of orchard that
would otherwise have been set out will
not now be planted. The fact is being
more and more generally admitted out
here that the really practicable orange
land is very limited in area.
"The same thing is to be said of the
San Joaquin valley of California, the
small but growing district of Arizona,
the ambitious orange prospects in Texas,
and possibly other aspiring localities.
The San Joaquin crop must go TO market
by the early days of December or freeze
TO death. A freeze a few days before
schedule time will wipe it out. Arizona,
SO | understand, is out of the orange
business for year or so since the late
freeze Same with the Texas coast"
