He re- ferred to the tremendous latent power m the labor organizations and said that the reason it did not receive the greatest reward was because of jeal- ousy between the different bodies and lack of loyalty to common cause.

JUST STOOD WAITING.
Twenty Per Cent of New York Child
rem Merely Expectant.

New York, July 5.-Almost 20 per
cent of the children of playing age in
New York Cfty's streets Just stand
around doing nothing, waiting for
something to turn up" This is one
of many points brought out as the re-
suit of a census taken simultaneously
by 500 volunteer workers assigned to
observe the children at play in the
streets of New York between hours
of and o'clock on a given day. A
time chosen was sunny Saturday af-
ternoon and the census included
count of 12O,197 boys and girls in the
street.
1t was learned that to a remarkable
extent, the children devoted them
selves to healthful natural play or at
least tried to, despite the fact that they
were in the midst of the most dan
gerous and degrading surroundings.
One of the greatest elements of danger
lay in the fact that over 10000 adult
loungers were counted in the vicinity
of groups of the playing youngsters.
The $4,000 children who were just
waiting for something to turn up
leads the Investigators to plead for
supervision of children's play in the
streets and 1.-The undesirable filth" in
which many of tenement children
played, pointed to the need of more
Fairgrounds.

THRASH YOUNG GATES.
Fathcr-in-Law Found Him in Cafe
Buying Wine.

Minneapolis. Mimi, July 5.-Charles
G. Gates. son of the late John w

and then soundIy whipped by his
father-in-law, Frank w. Hopwood.
Within an hour Mr.. Gates had char
tered a special train and left for the
east without his wife, who was Miss
Florence Hopwood.
Gates married Miss Hopwood about
a year ago and a short time after his
first wife had secured divorce from
him. Following his marriage he built
a residence here which is said to have
cost S1,000,0O0 and since that time has
made his headquarters here.
The trouble was caused by the fail
ure of Gates to keep an appointment
with his wife and a party of friends
to go yachting. The Hopwoods sent
out searchers for Gates and one of
these reported that Gates was buying
wine and literally throwing his money
away entertaining a party of Greet
ers of America, an organization of
hotel clerks now in convention here.
Hopwood, ST., and his son hurried to
the cafe and the mixup followed.
