DRAWN TO A CLOSE.

Cleveland, Ohio-Some years ago a
number of impetuous spirits in the In
ternational Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers carried out plan whereby the
national organization was split and the
seeding portion formed dual organiza-
ton, with full complement of officers.
The seeding organization appeared be-
fore the Denver convention of the A. F.
of L., seeking recognition. The conven-
ton, however. refused to recognize the
seeding faction and seated the delegates
representing the regular organization. AT
the inception of the difficulty nearly
100000 in funds were tied up by injunc-
tion by the seceders, and litigation over
these funds has been in progress ever
since About a year ago the case came
to trial and the regular organization. rep
resented by President McNulty and his
colleagues, won a signal victory over the
seceders, winning practically every point
over which contention was had. The Sc
ceders. not satisfied with the outcome.
refused to accept the verdict of the
Cleveland court and appealed the case
to the court of appeals. On January IL
the court of appeals handeu down a de-
cision which sustained in every particu-
lar the decision rendered by Judge Phil
lips, who presided as judge during the
trial of the case. 1t was proven in the
lower court that the seceders had vio-
lated the laws of their own organization
in organizing a dual international union.
and the regular organization won the
case at the trial, and has now won a sec
ond victory in the court of appeals. In
cases of this character the organic law
of the organization is the basis upon
which decisions are arrived at. Owing
to this fact, this last decision ought to
be sufficiently convincing to those cleo
trical workers outside the regular organ
ization to induce them to seek ahiliation
with the regular and accredited organi-
zation of electrical workers. recognized
by the American Federation of Labor.
Shortly after the Denver convention the
American Federation of Labor officially
recognized the organization which has
won two victories in court. and the recog-
milton came after thorough investiga-
ton of all the points at issue and in be
half of the best interest OF the American
labor movement.

TuILERIEs PARK.

The wage earners of this city thor
oughly appreciate the stand taken by
Manager Crabb in the attempt to abolish
the few hours OF wholesome recreation
afforded them at this resort. No objec-
ton was made to the class or conduct OF
its patrons, but the time-worn fanatical
cry against mirth on Sunday. innocent
though 1t may be, should be prohibited,
and as usual friend Crabb came out
ahead. Dancing and skating will con
tinue every Thursday evening and Sun

ASK PAY FOR PRISON LABOR.

Sacramento, Cal.-Legislation will be
asked for this winter providing for the
payment of a small sum per day to GER
tain prisoners at the penal institutions at
San Quentin and Fulsom, the money to
be sent to the prisoners families. 1t is
stated that the president of the board
of prison directors and the warden at
San Quentin are strongly in favor of this
plan. 1t is asserted that in some states
where the payment of wages to prisoners
has been tried it has been found that
the men do. not, in many cases, volun.
tarily send their wages to their families.
SO the legislature will be asked to give
the prison directors control over the
earnings.

NEW YoRk's BIG STRIKE.

New York-From reports gathered at
strike headquarters there are at present
on strike in the garment trades 175,000
people. OF this number there are ap-
proximately 10000 strikers in the mems
clothing industry, with $4,000 in the
ladies' garment working industry. Nego-
tiations are in progress which indicate
that settlement will be reached in the
not distant future. and If present plans
are carried out the settlement will be
highly favorable to the strikers and will
assure a very large increase in the nu-
merical strength of the unions involved.
Quite a large per cent. of the strikers
were not members of their respective
unions prior to the strike, but since the
Inauguration of the contest they have
affiliated themselves with the organiza-
ton holding Jurisdiction over these in
dustries. parade was recently held in
which approximately $4,000 strikers par
ticipated and was the largest demonstra-
tion of strikers ever made in this
country.

FREE EMPLOYMENT BUREAU.

ST. Paul-According to the Minnesota
Union Advocate the st. Paul Free EN-
ployment Bureau, maintained by the
state, has completed very successful
year, and has been of immeasurable ben
eft to those seeking employment. A re-
port just issued shows that the laboring
people are better off than they have
been at any time during the last five
years, the period in which the bureau
has been in existence. More people are
working this winter than in the past,
and as a consequence fewer are apply
ing for work than for many years. When
it is considered that the climatic condi-
tions in the northern latitude necessarily
curtail the amount of work in the winter
months, the present state Of affairs is
gratifying. In comparative statement
issued it is shown that during 1910 en-
ployment was secured for $500 men and
women, while in 1912 employment was
secured for 1493S. This statement is
proof conclusive that the Free Employ
ment Bureau in St Paul has not only
been effective, but has been extremely
beneficial to those in search of employ
ment.

UNFAIR PROPOSITION.

Kansas City, Mo.-Under the caption,
AN Imposition" the Labor Herald says
editorially: ITO those who go through
the workshops at the state penitentiary
at Jefferson City it is somewhat OF a
surprise to them to discover that In the
shoe department shoes are being made
which are labeled made in Chicago
This certainly is a base imposition which
should be put an end to. and the admins
tration which has been in power the past
four years is at fault for knowingly al
lowing such a thing to be carried on. If
the manufactured product of this insti-
tuition was labeled penitentiary made,
as it ought to be, the deception could not
be practiced. In justice to the thousands
who are misled when purchasing foot
wear, the wrong should have been right
ed long ago by those who were in po-
sition to do So"

Weather conditions were perfect. and the
famous Center Court was perfect. Both
men turned out absolutely ut, and II
would be difficult to find two men in any
branch of sport better eqipped by nature
for the severe struggle that was before
them.
Mclaughlin became aggressive at the
start. and from first to last had the
Irishman on the defensive. The first set
was evenly contested until Parke
dropped his service. and with a game in
hand the American ran out winner on
his own service by six games to four.
The second set was almost a repetition
of the first the only difference being that
Parke managed to carry the set into

wonderfully impartial gallery.

with Umpire KLEIN. when Pitcher Bren-

McGraw, turned suddenly and struck the
New York manager fierce blow on the
jaw. which sent him to the ground. As
McGraw was struggling to get up some

ear. McGraw was dazed for a moment.

The assault was witnessed by a large
crowd of spectators that was passing
across the field, but nobody seems to
know who kicked the Giant leader.
McGraw takes the matter philosoph-
ically. He will make no charges. 1T re-
minds me Of old times" said McGraw.
The game was strenuous from the start,
each side using three pitchers in their
efforts to stop the heavy hitting.
The Phillies tied the game in the eighth
after the Giants had apparently won the
contest, and there was no more scoring
until the tenth. when Snodgrass beat out
an infield hit, got to second on Burns
out. and scored on Herzog's smashing
