BARGAINING. AGAINST THE PUBLIC
(From Daily Financial America

(From Daily Financial American
What seems apparent in the present attitude of
organized labor is that unrestricted freedom in the
use Of the strike is regarded as far preferable to
a raise in wages for minority of organized labor.
In obtaining the passage of the AdamsOn law, rail
road labor leaders secured what seemed TO he a
legalized promise of the government to force the
railroads TO raise the wages of some four hundred
Thousand railway train operatives. But the passage
of the Adamson law committed the president-and
virtually committed Congress as we'll = to the
enactment of a law which would reduce the strike
peril by making it illegal to strike until after full
public investigation of the merits of dispute had
been instituted and completed Here was some
thing far more serious to organized labor as a
whole than the Adamson law was seemingly bene-
fetal to small minority of organized labor And
while there could be question of the legality of
a law thus dealing with strikes there was much
question to the validity of a law dealing with
wages as does the Adamson act.

The arrogant and unpatriotc attitude of the rail

their success last fall in bualoing' the Wilson ad

stanchest supporters of Mr.. Wilson found difficulty

and legislative powers to the demands of the rail

Congress AT that time, the brotherhoods now are at

club over the court to hasten decision on the

of nationwide strike. it is hard TO see how the
railroads can do other than fight the brotherhoods
to a finish, and in fighting to keep their lines in
operation. they should have the immediate help of
the United States government. The proposal to tie
up the nations transportation at time of interna

CURIOUS FRENCH DUEL.
When Man and Wife Tried to Settle Z
DISPUTE With Swords.

Charles Coypeau, Sieur d'Assouci, q
French poet and musician of the sew
enteenth century, relates in one of
his Adventures" that his father and
mother were one day engaged in a dis
cussion upon questions of law when
q dispute arose between them with
regard to the precise signifcation and
bearing of a provision in Justinian's
code with respect to the rights of
brothers.
Ultimately the quarrel waxed 80 furi-
GUS that the disputants lost all control
Of themselves, de6ed each other to
single combat and proceeded to settle
their difference and determine the
mind Of the ancient legislator by q
fight with swords.
This singular duel took place In their
sons presence. Coypeau pere was IN
advocate by profession and q mem
ber of one Of the French parliaments.
Madame was exceedingly diminutive
and had to wear exceptionally high
pattens to approach the ordinary stat
ure of women, but she was fierce and
domineering in temper. The combat
appears to have been a drawn battle,
and the sense of Justinian remained
as obscure and debatable as ever.

AN EMBROIDERED CEILING.
IL Once Graced the Chinese imperial
y Palace at Picking.

One of the most beautiful and elab-
crate pieces Of embroidery ever exhlb-
tied in New York was the ceiling OF
the council chamber of the imperial
palace at Peking. This ceiling was
formed of yellow silk of heavy quality
that much resembled faille in the
weave. The back was of a greenlsh
blue. woven in a small diamond pat
tern. The total measurements Of 1t
all were twenty-one feet six inches
long and nineteen feet six inches wide.
The design with which it was en-
bellished was an imperial dragon In
the center and four others, one i'll each
corner, Encircling these groundwork
was formed Of cloud pattern. and dis
persed We're small bats and other sym
bols. The cloud effect was worked OUT
In blue and purple and the bats In
pink. The dragons were largely gold
work, and a threefold line of gold sur
rounded each part of the design.
The story of this ceiling and how 1t
came to New York includes small
part of Chinese history and custom.
It was In the imperial council chamber
at Peking that the ENJOYS of the va
rious nations met in 1902 to settle the
Boxer difficulties. At the close Of the
session a representative of the emper-
or courteously informed them that the
contents of the chamber were consid-
cred profaned by the presence Of for
eigners and that they were therefore
at liberty to divide among themselves
the chambers furnishings. In this
manner the ceiling fell to the share of
the American envoy.-St. Louis Post
