.0hs|aughts. !

ALBANY, N. Y. March 2.-Trade
unionists in this state are rallying
to- repulse attacks against the or
ganized movements that have been
launched from three ..uarters.
The Duell bill, backed by the New
York board of trade and transpOr-
tation, outlaws strikes and picketing
and arms the state supreme court
with wide powers to set wages and
working conditions and to- enforce
these edicts.
Another bill is a weak limitation
Of the Canadian law which prohibits
strikes until same :, y investi-
gated. In. the Canadian law, how
ever. report must be made Within
81 days. while the pending bill pro-
vides that the report shall be made
within a reasonable time"
The third anti-union bill provides
for state control OF the unions. No
strike can be called before employees
submit their. grievance to- the state
industrial commission, which las i6o
days to investigate the dispute. !
Heavy penalties are provided fol
violation of any section Of the three
proposals. ,-,.. ::
=. These anti-trade union movements

TANGIER, Morocco. June 5.-Presi-
dent Hardtne's fellow townsman and
personal friend. Rev. Joseph NJ. Den
ming, who has just assumed his duties
here as American consul general and
diplomatic agent, has come to Africa
at a time when Morocco is torn with
unrest and Spain and France. are both
lighting to maintain supremacy In
their zones of influence.
Eighteen years ago John Hays
"Perdicaris alive or Raisuli dead"
rang through the streets OF Morocco
and four American warships steamed
into Tangier to back up American
demands for the release of Ian Perdi-
caris. whom Raisuli had kidnapped and
was holding in the mountains for
ransom.
The Moroccan government under
stood the language Of warships with
guns turned shoreward. It paid
Raisuli the 10000 English pounds he
demanded for Perdicaris' release. and
the incident was closed.
But this same Raisuli is still on the
rampage. He and many other bandit
chiefs are operating within 100 miles
Of Tangier. Raisuli has grown tat
and prosperous since the days when
he made the Moroccan government
pay him so we'll for the release OF
Ian Perdicaris and walter B. Harris
the correspondent of the London
Times. But a few days ago the Span
ish troops drove him out OF his citade'
at Dazroot. sixty miles south OF Ian-
gier. and he and his harem and three
or four thousand soldiers are in hight
in the mountains before the artillery
of the Spanish leaders. who have less
fear Of bandits than has the Moroccan
government.
Kaisuli Wins Favors.
It was in 1904 that Raisuli captured
Perdicaris and blackmailed the MO-
roccan sultan into ransoming him to
bandit leader became so powerful
that he was named governor Of the
Tangier district a little later. and
was also named governor of the city
of Arzela. He was such a power
that the government could not re1use
him what he wished. When Spain
took over under the Algeciras treaty
IN 1912 It curried favor with Raisuli.
He was given arms for his FORCES ana
made a sort of governor.
Three wears ago the Spaniards.
tired of the extortions and demands
OF Raisuli, ousted him from office. AT
pazroot he had erected fortified
castle. where he kept his bandit army
and his treasury protected against In
heavy artillery. So when the Spanish
forces turned heavy shells against his
stronghold a few days ago there was
nothing for him and his followers to
do but fee.
This flight puts Raisuli into bitter
disgrace. DaZroot is holy city. 1t
contains the tomb of Absolam Raisuli.
