HILLMAN, WOLL, LEWIS AND
THE FIGHT FOR POWER
WASHINGTON, D. although
Sidney Hillman, president of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers is to-
be seen at the convention of the A.
F. of l.. in company with Richard,
of the United Garment Workers
members, various official delegations
are offering to give odds that the
A. c. W. will not become part Of
the American Federation of Labor at
this convention.
The general opinion is that With
the resolution introduced by the
United Mine Workers delegation CALI
ing for the enlargement of the Ex~
ecutiye Council by adding II new
vice-presidents showing great insta-
bility in the internal official rela-
tionships, this is, not the time to
bring in what may be uncertain ele-
ments that might change the balance
of forces in the struggle for power
and prestige among the royal family
of labor and its courtiers.
The resolution for increasing the
number of vice presidents is intended
to pave the way for drive for more
power on the part of John L. Lewis
as against Matthew Vol and his
following of heads of number of
small and relatively unimportant
unions.
There is no question Of principle
involved and no change in policy
contemplated. 1t is purely a palace
fight. The difference between Vol
and Lewis is that one is reactionary
and the other is reactionary.
AS far as the rank and file is con-
cerned it is a case of the woman
whose bully Of a husband had
fight with bear. Telling the neigh
bors about it afterwards she said it
was the only fight she ever saw in
which she didn't care who lost.-B.D.

BALTIMORE, January 10.-More
than 81 l,500. 900 capital was invested In
building and expanding Baltimore
manufacturing plants during 1882, ac-
cording to the annual review of in
dustrial progress prepared by H. Find
lay French, director of the industrial
bureau of the Association of Commerce.
Fifty-three new manufacturing In
dustries were located here during the
year and So companies expanded their
plants. Although these figures COM
pare favorably with former years, Mr..
French said that the average size was
decidedly smaller than usual.
THE extent of new manufacturing
acquisitions in 1885, he declared, will
depend to a considerable degree on gen.
eral conditions, but the levels should
tend to increase over the 1882 situation.
which itself should be considered de-
cidedly gratifying under prevailing con-

The new industries and expansions
provided employment for 1881 workers.

Prime List Shows Further
Gains, but Speculative
Group Is Irregular.
BY CHARLES F. SPEARE.

epecial Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 10.-The de-
caand for bonds was again strong today,
with dealers in possession of orders for
large blocks of both tax-free and tax
able issues and willing to pay at the
market for them.
On the other hand, the supply was
limited, for with an average recovery
of 2 points in the domestic list since
the end of the year there has been
less disposition on the part of in
veStorS to release their bonds and more
of an inclination BY institutions to buy
them.
Some of the speculative securities
were disposed to react early in the ses-
sion. following their recent rapid ad-
vance, and this caused an irregular
price list. Losses ranging from one
half to a point occurred in number
of the Junior rails. There was also
heavy tone to few of the first-mort-
gage issues. Atchison general 4s were
quoted point under the high at the

The average rate of interest of o.20

GRAIN DEALERS ASK
TARIFF REVS|0NS
New Plan for Farm Relief
Suggested by Exchange
Members.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 10.-The grain
dealers have proposed farm relief
should be based on tariff revisions to
permit the sale abroad of commodity
SurpluSses.
Representatives of the major grain
exchanges looked with disfavor upon
acreage reduction by domestic allot-
ment, but urged solution of the real
problem by bringing farm prices into
equiligbrium with general commodity
prices and thus closing the gap that
has brought ruin to agriculture"
The recommendations were made by
the Grain Committee on National At
falrS, sponsored by exchanges at Chi
cago, Buffalo, Duluth. Kansas City,
Milwaukee, Minneapolis. New York,
Omaha and st. Louis, and by the Grain
Dealers National Association.
Repeating an old complaint, the
grain dealers asked for repeal of the
agricultural marketing act, which au-
thorizes the Federal Farm Board, and
the grain futures act, which regulates
certain phases of exchange trading.
The 1922 and 1929 tariff acts were
criticized for not recognizing that the
must buy goods from abroad If it would
sell its produce in foreign lands.
Reopen" the report urged, "the
channels through which surplus pro-
ducts, goods or materials in one section
of the world may by the natural pro-
cesses OF trade be expeditiously moved
to the section of the world where such
surplus is needed. -"
Take full advantage OF our tariff
structure to increase our participation
in the international trade of the world
by opening a means for the disposal
abroad Of our surplus of farm
products"
The grain dealers were critical of
the domestic allotment and other farm
relief plans which seek to limit pro-
duction to domestic needs as a means
of making the tariff effective to agri-
culture.

uncanny restraint on buyers.
