Waqes Of the Workers.

THE laundry workers are really better
women employed as starchers earn $40
n week, and the wages generally run
from SO TO $50 a week. The drivers are
paid S14 and SO a week and they have
only a few hours to work day, and
many Of them get several dollars week
more in tips"
Some of the largest laundries were not
involved in the strike yesterday Among
there were the twelve Wallach laundries,
the West Side, Killips and other laun-
dries which contract for hotel work. Ac-
cording to the union leaders these will
all be involved in the strike. Vernon b.
Smith representative of the Interna
tional Laundry Workers Union, who is
now here to run the strike, said that the
international union was going to stand
bv the strike. The American Fedora
tion of Labor will also support 1t.
"As TO our conference with the bosses
at Terrace Garden" said William Ar

WANT FINANCIAL REFORM
Democrats Will Early Consider
Legislation to Bring About
Changes.

Remembering the financial panics which
forced the party out of power in the
federal government the last time it had
control Of all the government machinery,
the democratic leaders in Congress hope
to put through currency reform legisla-
ton early in it's new career Of power.
The solution of the problem, along diff
the Aldrich monetary commission, has
been sought by subcommittee of
the House committee on banking and
currency, headed by Representative
Carter Glass of Virginia. Mr.. Glass
has framed bill outlining general re-
organization of the monetary system of
this country and this will be laid before
the subcommittee and thoroughly discuss
its rough edges may be polished off and
improvements made.
The bill proposes to divide the country
into zones and to have the banks in each
zone belong to an association. There is
to be no central association or bank, and
the only control over the associations of
banks In the several zones is to be exer-
cised by the federal government.
Representative Glass has called a meet
ing Of the subcommittee for next week,
when work on the legislation will be re-
newed 1t is proposed to invite promi-
nent bankers. representatives of varied
business interests and others affected by
the currency and credit system in vogue
to appear before the committee and dis
cuss the proposed measure. 1t is hoped
to have the new legislation ready at least
by the time the democrats take control of
federal government affairs.

CRITICISES SINISTER LAWYERS.
W.. Bryan Addresses Law Students
of GEORGETOWN University.

Lawyers who sell their souls and brains
to aid criminals to escape just punish
ment were put in the same category as
ordinary accomplices of criminals by
William Jennings Bryan in an address
last night before the students of the Law
School of Georgetown University.
He predicted that the day Is not far
distant when lawyers who aid criminals
will be put in the same class as man
who holds a horse to aid highwayman
to escape. He asserted that the most i'm
portant requisite for success of man Is
faith in God. 1t had been his experience.
he said, that in practically all cases
where there were breakdOwns in men
with brilliant futures that failure invari-
ably was attributable to a lack of faith.
Faith he divided into three kinds-faith
in self, faith in fellow-man and faith in
government. In keeping with these di-
visions of faith. but the most important
by far. he declared, was faith in the Gre
ator Lawyers, of all classes of men, he
said, are subject to the greatest tempta-
tions, and at the same time If they hon
estly shoulder their responsibilities their
field for doing good is great.
Col. Bryan said that he was not a
preacher and that the nearest he had
ever come to being one was when he
entered politics and the field of journal
ism. He was introduced to the students
by Prof. Charles A. Douglas of the law
school and was greeted by the students
with college yells.

RESTRICTIONS AT HARBOR.
Pleasure Craft Must Be Kept Out o1
Prescribed Section.

The restricted space in the harbor
makes it necessary for the harbormaster
to keep all anchored craft within speci-
fled lines marked with his white buoys.
The police boat is often kept busy no.
tifying strangers here of the ruling and
directing them where to go. Yesterday,
however, when the police launch Maj.
Sylvester made her trip. around the har-
Dor Sergt. Passeno found several Of the
pleasure craft We're encroaching on the
prescribed territory, and their masters
were notified to get up anchors and move
back. The tug D. M. Key was called
into service and the moorings of the
launches were shifted SO that when the
launches swing at their moorings they
will not encroach on forbidden territory.
The fact that there is but little room
in the harbor to allow steamers to get
in and out of their docks makes the reg
uation as to anchorage grounds and its
strict enforcement.

Slight Chance of Recovery.
The woman, who had been registered
as the wife of George Remnee." or
"Remner," had not regained conscious
ness several hours after being taken to
the hospital. 1t was said she had slight
chance of recovery.
The police early today had been unable
to find any trace of 'Remnee.' From
the size of clothing found In his suit

one-half size were found and the un-
derwear was for man of large stature.

Tumbo's SoiiIoquy.

Years ago I said I'd never for a third term make endeavor; that was when I rocked of virtue and my conscience was on edge; and It beats my comprehension why there's so much public tension ov- CT such a trifling matter as a lit tie broken pledge. Oh, your liar ry, Dick and Thomas seem lo look upon promise as a thing that's almost sacred, but that view is quite absurd save for men of low conditions; one who stands in my position is superior to morals, and may break his plighted word. By the highways and the hedges let the rabble keep their pledges-hOn- esty's splendid system for the common class of skates; but my promise does not matter when I hear the frenzied chatter, when I hear the loud kyoodle of the Sev- en Magistrates. Whats the use of being TumbO, famous as was Barnum's Jumbo, if I'm bound by superstitiOns of the stern, old fashioned kind? Whats the use of being Teddy if conservative and steady mOssbacks with a narrow vision roast me when I change my mind? I am loaded down with laurels, and I do not care for mor- als, and make my own command ments, make them as I go along: and whate'er I say is proper; mine to choose twixt truth and whop- per, I am in the right forever. and the other fellows wrong.

Petroleum.

In ills original state petroleum Is of murky green color. It is distilled in pans with great fur naces blazing beneath them, and as the vapors arise from the boil ing liquid they are conveyed into pipes surrounded by cold water in which they are condensed.
 The first vapOrs cOndense into naptha and those produced by further heating give the burning oil. A very small percentage of the crude oil put into the pans or stills remains in the form of tar, which by another process is converted into paraffln and coke.
 After distillation the refined oil is no longer green, but is as transparent as spring water and beautifully tingcd with purplcs and blues. IL is not yet ready for use. however, since it must be washed" The fluid is rmplicd into a large circular tank in which it is treated with acids, these be- ing poured in and mixed with il by means of powerful pressure from beneath.
 When il has been well shaken il is allowed to settle, and the acids then separate from il and sink to the bottom of the tank. taking with them some of the tar that remained in the oil.
 The acids arc then removed and the oil is washed with salt Wa ter. Finally, it is blcached and if is then ready for the market.

HYDRAULIC WORK
 BY: 'YUK0h. h.<G0LO
Statement of Yardage Handled and costs of Operation Including
 Water and Repairs

The Yukon Gold company, in its annual report to the stock holders in referring to their hy- draulic operations, say:
 The hydraulic work has been confincd, thus far, largely to the lower-grade deposits on account iof the lack of dump room to per- init the Working of the better portions. The dredges are rapid ly mining the creek ground, so that dump ground is being pro- vided, and this difficulty, which has arisen from carrying on both operations simultaneously, will soon disappear. The hydraulic mines were handicapped by ex- tremely low water in the latter part of the season. The Yukon, as well as the Alaska interior, suffered from an extremely dry season, and the flow of the creeks and rivers was the lowest that has been known since records have been kept. This resulted in a shortage of water supply during the months of August and Sep tember which cut down the yard age for these three months and increased the operating cost. Ev- on with this handicap the hy- draulic cost decreased, the figures for 1911 being i5.5c per cubic yard, which is the lowest that has ] yet b,en reached in the operation. Hydraulic OperatiOn.-During the season total of 2,i25,55t cu- bic yards of gravel was washed in the hydraulic mines, including the yardage from leased ground, an increase of 10 per cent over ! the season of 1910. The total gross production was S43i,3s2. It will be noted that the produc- ton shows decrease as cOmpar- l ed with 1910 of over $500, 1000. This is accounted for by the fact that the mechanical elevators were operated on rich creek grav- el, and added materially to the gross production for the season of 1910. The reason for discon- tinuing the elevator operation is that the dredgcs have been found to do the same work at much less cost successfully which it was not thought possible to mine by this method. On this account the Wa ter from the main ditch system was applied altogether on the hill or bench deposits instead of on

Among the passengers arriving on the lIolland-Amrrican liner Ryndam was Norman IIapgood, editor of Golfers Weekly. When asked for his opinion on the po- litical situation Mir. IIapgood, who has long been a Roosevelt sup porter, said:
 "If Governor Wilson had been nominated at Baltimore by mon- eyed interests in the same way President Taft was nominated at the convention in Chicago, then Theodore Roosevelt might have had a chance of being elected on an independent ticket: The ma jority of Republicans among American business men that I have met on shipboard going over and -eturning, and also in Hol- land, told mo that they intended to vote for Wilson, because he had the right ideas on the tariff question.

 The main ditch system from the Twelvemile river was operated 15O t-2 days, which was 97.i per cent. of the possible time, as com pared with 78.8 per cent. for 1910. The average daily delivery, meas ured at the Kfondike pipeline dis charge, was 3089 24-hour miners inches, and the total water deliv- cred was 482,58O miners inches as against i59,3l9 ill 1910. From this it appears that while the in crease in operating time was 23 8 per cent, the increase in the amount of water delivered was on- ly five per cent, which shows the effect of the extreme dryncss of the season. The total charge for operation and maintenance for the ditch for 1911 was St35,7iO. Of this amount Stt,859 was charg- cd to power-plant operation and S123,85t to hydraulic operations No unusual difficulties were en- countered in the operation of the system.
