absolute control over the question OF
age and would nave the school authori-
ties pass upon the educational require
ments. The report adds:
IAN additional safeguard to the en-
ployment OF minors would be secured
by the passage of an act prohibiting
their employment in certain specified
occupations which are generally known
as dangerous trades. Careful examina-
ton by experts on his subject has
demonstrated the fact that certain oc-
equations should be classed SIS In
furious and l believe that a law resu-
lating the age at which minors are
permitted to engage therein should be
enacted by the legislature"
The statistics of the Newark office
show that during the year 4.s67 APP
plicants applied for working papers, OF
which 2,374 were issued.
Among the recommendations In the
report is the enactment of a law regu-
lating the hours OF employment of
women and the conditions under which
they may be employed. Such an act
was formerly on the statute books, but
wa not Incorporated In the present
law, because OF the question as to its
constitutionality. coupled with a fear
that IL too much progressive legisla-
ton were attempted at once the whole
law might fail of passage.
The report says that the question Of
efficient factory inspection with regard
to the protection Of machinery Is
worthy Of the most serious considera-
ton.
The report concludes by suggesting
that If the numerous duties now placed
upon the department by law r to be
properly and efficiently performed it is
imperative that the present force OF
inspectors be increased.

Workers of the World
OPEN SHOPS SHOW
THE MOST STRIKES.
BY PETER POWER.

1t might be casually reiterat-
ed here that the open shop, so
called, is no protection against
strikes. / mentioned the fact
the first of the year that during
the last three months of 1910
over $4,000 employees of open
shops had gone on strike, or
double the number of union peo-
pie in the same period.
During the first four months
of 1911 there were 1900 min
ers on strike In Pennsylvania
who walked out non-union; al
least 10000 of the $4,000 strik-
'ers at Baldwin locomotive works
in Philadelphia (lately acquired
by ]. P. Morgan) were morgan
lied; two-thirds of the 5000 gar
ment workers who struck in
Cleveland were non-union, and
of the $4,000 men who quit the
Pennsylvania railroads open
shops not more than a third car
ried union cards.
Including workers engaged in
many smaller struggles, the
'non-union strikers for the first
four months approximate 10000.
That's the answer? That the
class struggle and resistance tc
tyranny are natural manifesto
tions of the capitalist system, and

NORFOLK, Va, July 10.-The
finding of a corroded collar but
ton in some lime by one of the
diggers on the Murdoch farm has
strengthened the belief of the au-
thorities that the woman now in
Jail charged with one murder
kept a veritable murder farm.
Two men known to have associ-
ated with Mrs. Minnie Lee MUIR
dock in the past five years have
vanished.
The whole place about the
woman's shanty is being exca-
waited.
This is how 1t started. An old
negro shuffled into the sheriff's
office with the story that he had
been asked by Mrs. Murdoch to
dig a grave at the farm. Deputies
hurried out, and, digging in an
onion bed where the earth
showed signs of recent disturb
ance, found at the depth of foot
the corpse of Harry Harding, a
sailor. with it's head caved in with
an AK.
Mrs. Murdoch and Charles
Merkle, who worked for her, were
arrested.
Mrs. Murdoch confessed. She
said Merkle, Jealous of Harding,
murdered him single-handed. She
went to sleep while the men were

quarreling. Presently she awoke,
put out her hand in the dark and
on the pillow beside her felt the
wet face of Harding smashed to
a pulp. Merkle had killed him as
he slept, she said.
She screamed, and Merkle
rushed in, fiercely bidding her be
quiet. The two threw the body
under the bed. Then Merkle lost
his nerve and the man and
women chung together in terror.
1t was not until the next flight,
she said, that they dug a shallow
grave in the garden, carried the
body out on plank and buried II.
Search of Mrs. Murdoch S
three-room hut revealed scores of
letters from men with whom she
was corresponding through matri-
monial agencies. One man wrote
that he had saved $500 to get
married. .#...
Two men who had been seen
with the woman disappeared. One,
a civil war veteran, vanished SO
completely that the. thorough
search for him made by his
Grand Army post failed to find
a trace of him. The other, a
young sailor, also vanished.
Deep trenches are being dug at
Intervals on the small farm in
the expectation of finding moro
bodies.

that saving of between half a
billion and billion dollars year
can be effected if the states would
improve 20 per cent. of the roads
now in operation.
These improvements would
cost each state about 100000,
but the tremendous yearly saving
would more than make up for it.
Appeals will be sent out to each

Fans Glad That
Third City Will Enter

Amateur fans are well pleased with
the announcement today that the ANA
teur Commission had granted the Mary
land Athletic Club the right to enter
into the series with Richmond, thus
making II a tri-city affair. Final ac-
ceptance has not been received from
Richmond
The Baltimore team is not the cham
pion of that city in the same way that
Cornell or the Bankers will be In WASH
ington. They have not participated In a
series with the other teams, but IL is
picked as being the best team there,
and its amateur status is unquestion-
able.
The changes in the schedule are that,
instead OF having Richmond here for
two games on Labor Day, Monday next,
the Baltimore team will play Washing
ton in the second game Of the double
header, Richmond playing the first. On
the following Saturday Washington and
Baltimore go to Richmond, and the fol-
lowing Saturday Richmond and WASH
ington will play in Baltimore. This ex-
tends the series until September 16.
This will be Baltimore's initial ap-
pearance in a post-season series, but
Baltimore teams have played here In
Sunday games several times this year.
VT the Maryland Athletic Club is better
than the Maryland Meter Company,
and very much better, then Washing
ton must look to its laurels, or the
Baltimoreans will cop the honors.
