COLLEGE DISH WASHERS
One Hundred Graduates in San Fran
cisco Union.

San Francisco. June 17.-Of the
700 members of the San Francisco
Dishwashers' union. 100 are college
graduates. This, 1t is said, is greater
proportion of college men than can
be found in any other labor organ
ization in the country. The statistics
were compiled by two members of the
union, one of whom says he is for
mer instructor in mathematics in an
eastern college. He resigned from that
position, he said today, to engage in
small business in Oswego, y. Y
Naturally 1 do not care to reveal
my name" he said We present a
case of men who have found them
selves unable to cope with some Of
the harsh requirements of life.
Il was absolutely untitled for bust
ness but might have succeeded if
had had even a rudimentary know
ledge of business affairs. 1 was un-
married and came west with just
enough money to keep me a week. At
first I tried rough work but 1 was
unable to endure the hardships of
the men who, had never known any
other sort of toll So became a dish
washer"
The union is the only one of its
kind lit is asserted. A dishwasher
gets $40 a week.

The message had failed to state
however that Agna Anderson. her
maid had captured both the burglar
and his booty and, aided by two po-
licemen, was holding them until the

TRAINS over CANAL.
Ferries Will Be Used to Continue Rail
Connection.

Washington, June 17.-Paradoxical
though it may seem, the first task of
the army engineers after they have
succeeded in severing the continents
of North and South America by the
Panama canal, will be to re-establish
the connection 1t is necessary that
communication by rail be maintained
uuimpaired between the north and the
south banks of the canal, especially If
the railway SYSTEMS of North and
South America are to be linked so as
to afford unbroken connection be-
tween New York and Buenos Aires.
Bridges high enough above the
canal to permit of the passage of
oceangoing vessels are out of the
question, while a plan to tunnel under
the canal has been abandoned because
of the great cost. Finally the decision
has inclined to a system of steam car
floats consisting of a gigantic ferry
which probably will be located near
Camp Elliott.
