way and Elevated Lines
to Join Union.

NEW YORK, March 30-Trouble which
If it should come to a crisis might involve

ployes affiliated with a labor union. but
he said the brotherhood would, neverthe-
less, continue the work of organizing the
men. He intimated also that higher
wages and other concessions would be
demanded.
Road Opposes Organization.
Mr.. Stone tonight quoted President
Shonts Of the marlborough company as
saying: II do not want to have to fight
you. but the policy Of the board Of d.
rectors is against any man working on
the marlborough being affiliated with a
labor union
We will proceed to organize the Inter
borough, nevertheless" asserted the en-
g1neers leader. land It remains to be
seen whether the Interborough can dis
charge men faster than we can organize
them.'

Result of Webb's Dismissal.
Fired While Angry.

Friends of Webb say he worried over
rumors that his work was not satisfac-
tory, and when he received a letter Of
dismissal he inquired OF his friends the
addresses of the various officials of the
plant. Unable to obtain these he went to
Stewards Office, and after an attempt to
discuss the matter rose in anger from
his chair and fired at Stewart, who sat
at g. desk. A Waterman hearing the
shots forced Webb from the Office, and
before he could be arrested he had killed
himself.

THE MELTING POT.

One of the greatest racial melting
pots in the west is Lake county and
the figures obtained in an investiga-
ton by the students of social science
in the University of Minnesota will be
of much interest here. They took a
racial census of 10000 families living
in Minneapolis.
The results are very interesting. IT
was found, for Instance, that seven
Fights of the foreign-born heads OF
families had married those of their
own nationality. But the children OF
such marriages, the second generation
exactly reverse this, as but one
eighth marry pure b1oods of their own
nationality, while practically none oil
the third generation regard nationality
in their MARTIAL choice.
The greatest amalgamators of blood
were found to be Germans, who
lshowed 102 combinations of national
