Nobody Knows Yet IF Carlton Musicians
Were Laborers-Anyway They We Gone

The labor federation claimed that
musicians in "A jazz orchestra are
laborers under the meaning of the
immigration act and should come in
with due regard to the quota law.
SO the situation stood until few
days ago, while Theodore G. Risley.
solicitor for the department, Wrestled
with the problem of whether a trap
drummer is an 'artist" or a manual
Iaborer. He dug long and deeply into
ponderous law tones, wishing to
make a ruling that would be fair and
would stand up. Then the artists, or
whatever they are. cut the Gordian
knot themselves by quietly boarding
a ship and sailing back to France.
Now all is serene and quiet until
another case of the same character
comes up.
But in the meantime the knotty
question of whether the musician who
pounds out the snappy strains Of the
latest BLACK Bottom" tune is an
artist or laborer is unsettled.

BRIDE ASKED TO RULE
ON D. C. HEADS POWER
Public Utilities Commission Re-
quests Attorney for Opinion on
Increases 1t Approved.

Corporation Counsel w. w. Bride
was placed in a perplexing situation
today, when the Public Utilities Com
mission called on him for an opinion
as to the authority of the District
Commissioners to supervise its ex-
penditures. Mr.. Bride, besides serving
as the legal adviser to the Commits
soners, also is on the pay roll of the
commission as its general counsel. Re-
CARELESS of the opinion he reaches, 1t
is bound to be adverse to one of his
two employers.
The question of the right of the
Commissioners to control the funds of
the commission arose When pay in
creases ordered by the latter for sew
eral of it's experts working on the re-
valuation of the Washington & George
town Gas Light Co. was held up by
the Commissioners pending action by
the Personnel Classification Board of
the District. The board disapproved
the proposed increases and the Com
missioners subsequently concurred in
the finding. The commission then de-
cided to get a legal opinion from its
general counsel in order to finally set
tie the problem.

The Labor Department has been re-
licVed for the time being, Of an OBJ
legation to make a ruling on the ques-
ton Of whether jazz musicians are
artists or manual labOrers.
Word came to the department to-
day that a Jazz orchestra from France,
hired by the Carlton Hotel here to
coax the seductive strains of European
Jazz for the dancing feet of Wash
ington debutantes, has packed up its
luggage and gone home, having ex-
hausted its six months stay in this
country. The musicians came into
the United States as artists" for
temporary stay Of six months, outside
the quota law.
The American Federation of Labor,
believing in protection of the Ameri-

ever they may be ruled to be, filed
a brief with the Labor Department
protesting against the admission to
this country of theAt'rench orchestra
as artists for a temporary stay.

day, on March Z, 1906. 1t was on
that date that Mr.. Scharnowske took
the original of the picture, the en-

Mr.. Scharnowske was serving in
the PHILIPPINES at the time and it
was during a three day battle in the
island Of Jola with renegade tribe
Of Moros, native religious fanatics,
that the picture was taken. Moros,
men and women alike, had retrkated
to an extinct volcano, the crater of
which formed natural trench for
the group pictured.
Sixteen hundred natives were kill
ed in the battle and the bodies,
packed eight and ten deep in the
crater, are shown in the picture.
Twenty-one soldiers were killed and
SO wounded in the engagement.
Mr.. Scharnowske still possesses
the original picture and copies of it
are in the possession of several of
his comrades. The enlargement in
the office of LANCER and Nuchols was
made by local photographer soon
after Mr.. Scharnowske came to Bis

which took part in the battle were
under the command of Major Stead

national guard in North Dakota, and
other officers connected with the
campaign were later stationed at
