This kind of thing, this continual
attack on the railroads by Sabotage"
steady and unrelenting, Is called by
brand new term, ia greve perlee," or
the "pearly strike Like a pearl,
each case of Sabotage" is extremely
expensive to the railroads, and, also
like pearls. they come in long strings
so far an unending one.
The revolutionary portion of the
labor confederation do not deny the
existence of this band, but seem rath-
er proud Of it. Said one of the lead
ers;
why OF course there is an organ
ization! No one need be in doubt
about that; neither the government,
which haggles over bills relating to
us, nor the railway companies which
have already paid a good price while
dallying over the reinstatement of
employees. The scheme of Sabotage"
exists, and it is not going to cease
until we get entire satisfaction. We
are entirely satisfied with the smooth
working of the sabotage system and
r iy1 odI thn%
workers is at least one clever woman. ;"
The question of the refrigeration
of employees is, | believe the key to
the whole situation. After the great
| railway strike of few months ago
many Of the old employees were shut
out by the companies, and the French
government has been working for and
against their cause ever since. some
Of the politicians being In favor OF
forcing the companies to take all the
men back, others objecting to such
move The governments own rail-
ways, however, took all their men
back, and urged the companies to do
| likewise only to be met with an en-
phatic refusal.
| 1t is believed that from among
these thousands of dissatisfied ex-rail-
waymen, the Sabotage gang is re-
cruited. Certain it is that these men
out are out because they conducted
themselves, during the strike, with
more than ordinary vigor and distin-
] guished themselves by some actor
acts-of nature which the railway
companies declare were not the deeds
of trustworthy employe, even on
strike.
! In short, It is the moro reckless
element which the companies refuse
! to take back.
You can rest assured one govern
ment official declared. that the
Caillaux ministry is ministry of
action and these criminals will be
brought to justice and punished with

Tho Lance.

Many military experts have derided
the lance as a cavalry weapon, assert
ing that it is old-fashioned and cum
bersome; but there are those who
still believe in shock tactics and the
cavalry charges. In Germany, espe-
cially. the lance. in the hands Of the
Prussian Uhlan. remains formidable
weapon. 1t recently has been pointed
out, however. that the lance point oft
en- makes too deep wounds for the
SHAFT to be withdrawn quickly. and
SO the lancer runs the risk Of having
1t wrenched from his grasp in the
charge. Accordingly the cavalry regi-
ments In Germany have for some time
been experimenting with new kind
OF lance that carries ball below the
pase OF the lancehead 1t is claimed
tnat the new arm is just as effective
In disabling an enemy and is free from
many disadvantages.
