FOREIGN DEMAND INCREASES
EOR TRnN AND STEEL PRODTC1


FOR IRON AND STEEL PRODUCTS
New York. y. 2, Nov. 16.-R c.
Dun and company's weekly review Of
trade says today:
Business continues to expand, IN
checked by the Balkan war with its
grave European complications. aad its
remarkable development has furnished
new proof that true national prosperity
springs from the soil. The domestic
and foreign demands Tor iron an steel
products is even larger than before
with all previous records broken. the
railroads are making every effort TO
move promptly the tremendous traffic
of the country and at the same time are
making due preparations for the re-
quirements OF the future. There are
signs Of preparation for the opening of
the Panama canal
Convincing evidence Of the remarka-
bic expansion in iron and steel was
furnished by the increase Of over
million tons in the untitled orders of
the leading interest last month. Crude
steel productions has reached the max
imum and there is still a scarcity Of
material with premium asked for the
small lots available.
Pittsburg car plants are booked to
the limit Of capacity for eight months
ahead and rail contracts this week ag-
gregate about 100000 tons, while or
ders for close TO $4,000 cars are pend
ing. Heavy orders for pig iron have
been placed and quotations are firm

COURT DEALS BLOW
TO ''RE[|EF BENEFIT
Relief Benefit Contracts Can
not Be Set Up AS Bar to Re-
covery for Accident.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-The
United States supreme court has
handed down a decision holding that
common carriers cannot set up re-
lief benefit contracts as bar to
recovery for damages in cases of
negligence.
" A brakeman in the employ of the
washington Terminal company lost
his arm in 1908 in a collision between
two engines in the yards at the union
station.
The suit for damages followed and
the lower court held the section Of
the employers liability act relied on
for relief as unconstitutional.
On appeal this decision was re-
versed, and another trial was had,
which resulted in the court direct
ing a verdict for the company on the
ground that the company was not a
common carrier.
The court of appeals was appealed
to again and that court ruled that
the company was common carrier.
The United States supreme court
has now finally settled the issue, by
deciding the issues in favor of the
injured brakeman, which carries
$500 in damages -

did set of men to represent them at
the convention of the Minnesota State
Federation of Labor to be held In
Brainerd on June IT. The trades as
sembly, carpenters, painters, plumb
ers, bartenders and several others
have already elected their represen-
tatiVg, and others will be chosen be-
tWen now and the time for the con-
vention.
All interest centers in the work of
the coming convention. While the
program for the meeting is not COM
plete it is expected the legislative
demands of organized labor will oc-
cupy considerable time at the conven-
ton. The executive council will
recommend that labor's first legis-
lative demand shall be for the ini-
tiative, the referendum and the re-
call. Its second demand will be
for a workingmens compensation act.
Several other measures will be rec
commended. among them being a
minimum wage law, new boiler in
spection law, an amendment to the
present hours-of labor law for women
telephone exchanges and an amend
ment to the anti-pass law that will
permit railroad employees holding
public office in their home localities
to enjoy the same privileges on rail-
roads as the other employees who do
not hold public office.
The unions of st. Paul and Miu-
neapolis are taking unusual interest
in the selection of delegates. The
arrangement committee at Brainerd
announces that it will outdo every
previous committee in entertaining
the convention, and it is believed that
the largest and: best meeting of the
State Federation of Labor will be
held at Brainerd this year. --
E. g. Hall, president Of the State
Federation of Labor, who is a visitor
in Duluth and. who has been doing
great work here in behalf Of local
organizations, is being urged to be-
comea candidate for reelection. It
is believed that if he decides to do
so he will be chosen again without
opposition. ~ ~ ~ :. :.

DULUTH WAGES LOWER
THAN IN. MOST CITIES
Findings of Commission Of Inter.
est in Study Of Unsettled .
Situation At Duluth.

In an interview published in the
Duluth Herald in reply to a state
ment made by a committee of street
railway employees relative to wage
conditions, Mr.. Warren stated that
the wages in Duluth compared. IA
vorably with those paid in other cites
in the same class compared favor
ably with those paid in other cities
in the same class throughout the
country. He did. not mention any
cities in particular, but he did say
that for "obvious reasons the wages
paid in Duluth were the same that
were paid in st. Paul and Mime
apolis.'
Several months ago the street rail-,
way employees in Milwaukee were
having just such a dispute with the
management that we are now having
in Duluth. For several days strike
was threatened, but it was averted
by referring the matters in dispute
to the Wisconsin Industrial commits
sion. This commission made an ex-
haustive study of street railway con.
ditions throughout the country and
recently filed it's report at Milwaukee.
Local Men Upheud.
Its findings are of much interest
to the street railway employees of Du-
luth. For they uphold every conten-
ton of the local men.
In the complaint filed with the
commission the Milwaukee employees
declared that 80 of the members had
been discharged for no. other cause
: than mem bership In the anton; that
the men were -harrassed by detec-
tives; that hours Of duty, were too
long and the |spread' too great;
that periods of a steady service With
out leave of absence were too long,
in many cases running into three
months.
There were also charges that equip
ment was not kept in repair, breaks
were defective; that trainmen were
ill-treated by officials and that the
wages were insufficient.
After making a complete inquiry
the commission found that employees
of the company had been discharged
for no other reason than member
ship in the union. When discharged
members We're called into the office
| of the company and notified of their
discharge, the reason given was the
