UNIONS WILL FIGHT
WAGE CUTS BY CITY
Central Federated Leaders Call
Labor Convention to Fight
Reductions.

A a result OF Mayor Mitchels re-
ported statement yesterday that the city
would have TO make sweeping cuts in
the sala rics OF all city employees the
Central Federated Union decide 10 call
a general convention OF organized labor
to oppose the proposed reductions.
Union leaders intend 10 make the
strongest fight against the present CITY
administration tina unions have ever
undertaken. They say that 10000 city
employees will be affected by the pro-
posed cuts of salaries. and that such re-
ductions would probably be followed 10y
private employers.
President James =. Holland OF the
New York state Federation of Labor
suggss ted that the convention be held
and the Central Federated Union en-
Enthusiastically ook up the idea.
The unions have never before faced
such an issue" said Mr.. Holland, ant
We must resort to defensive action II W,
find that the city officials are not willing
to withdraw their plans.
Ways ard means OF preventing thes'
wholesale reductions must be devised,
! Edward |. Hannah, general secretary
Of the PAYERS Union, said hat the re-,
ductions would be disastrous TO the city
employees.
A conference OF labor leaders wit
Frank y. sullivan, attorney for the Cen
trail Federated Union, will soon be held
to draw up a plan OF action for the pro.
posed convention.

Peterson had known her before her

small brooches which the police had
believed were stolen. They are worth
about $1,000. This makes 1t certain
| that the thieves got about $4,000 worth
Of plltnder. including the diamond chain.

In the circular sent to the pawnshops.
Two small concealed wall safes in
the Nichols house were opened also.
They contained only two gold watches
and some papers. These were covered
with dust. The fact that the robbers
did not force open the safes and did
not carry off some gold toilet articles,
though they took pillow cases from a
bed for that purpose. co%nvinces the po-
lice OF the fright n haste OF the
thieves to get away when they found
