Skilled Shop Workers Take Re-
ductiOn Referendum.
Employers Offer Plan to the
Union Leaders.
WILL REWARD EFFICIENCY
Miners of Country Will Fight
Pay Roll Slash.
Over Thousand Screw Makers
Get 20 Per Cent Cut.

Washington, Jan. 29.-OfficiaIs of
the labor unions representing skilled
employees of shipyards, today ordered
a general referendum on the proposal
of the Atlantic shipbuilding association
and the Bethlehem shipbuilding Cor
poration that wage scales be reduced
ten per cent as the initial move in a
program designed to bring down pro-
duction costs.
Proposals made to the union leaders
at conferences held with the BethIe-
a committee from the Atlantic coast
yards in Philadelphia were identical,
it was said today except that the for
mer indicated a desire to put the new
scale into effect not later than<Febru-
airy IA. while the latter offered to wait
until March 1.
A. j. Berries, secretary of the metal
trades department of the American
Federation of Labor which has been
supervising the negotiations, said to-
day that the question of whether the
cut would be accepted, depended en-
tirely upon the outcome of the vote
Between 10000 and $4,000 skilled
laborers were affected, he estimated.
Will Reward Efficiency.
Elizabeth, n. J., Jan. 2S.-The pro-
posal submitted by the Bethlehem
Ship Building corporation to its en-
ployes calls for wage reductions aver
aging from 10 to 20 per cent, but pro-
vides for the payment of bonuses for
efficiency and increased production.
This was made known here today at
the close of conferences between E. H.
Ewertz, geenral manager of the Moore
plant of the Bethlehem corporation,
and committees of employees. The cor
porat1on's proposal is understood to
be in the form of a plan whereby
greater efficiency on the part of in
| dividual workers will be rewarded in
the pay envelope. The bonus for eff
ficiency. it was stated, will amount to
as much and in some case more than
the wage cut.
Miners to Oppose Reduction. 8
Springfield, Ill, Jan. 2S.-President
John L. Lewis of the Z. NJ. w. A. at
his home here today. declared the or
ganization will oppose any attempt to
reduce miners wages.
I'VE feel he said, that wages now
paid are small and permit the sale OF
coal at a reasonable price. Wages for
both anthracite and bituminous miners
will continue in effect until March 81
1892.

Continuing the discussion of the
parole system as it is applied a t pres
ent, Warden Codding said that there
has not been a pardon granted, in the
state for the past six years, and that
instead, there are issued conditional
discharges which hang over the heads
of the convicts until the maximum
time of their sentences has expired.
Three Years Is Average.
The average time a convict stays in
the state penitentiary at Lansing is
three years, which is a year longer
than the average time in any other
state penitentiary in the middle west,
Warden Codding declared.
Codding urged that longer sentences
be imposed in cases of the lesser mis-
demeanors. He stated that in his opin-
ion it waseho worth while to sentence
q man to thirty days in jail. If it is
worth while to sentence him at all, he
should draw at least a year, CoddinS
declared.

Kansas needs a face washing very bad

the leniency shown in Kansas to the
minor criminal is one of the most de-
moralizing forces of the state today.

appointment of his successor, to leave
his office in the state penitentiary. He

Algunos criticos han hecho la OBJ

no es menos cierto que para NADIA ha-
ce falta; porque el soberano ingenio
de los autores ha sabido suplir esa
accion, que seria de truculencia y hes-
tialidad por 10 menos del malsano
dolor, con la sensibilidad del dialogo.
PasiOnera, la protagonista de la
obra, Sc sacrifica voluntariamente a
ese amor de Alberto que es su vida to-
da. !; Hace falta que el espectador pre-
sencie cl sacrificio de ese puro senti-
miento pisoteado por IN canalla? No.
