BARTER SAYS LONG SHOREMEN CANNOT HAVE ONE. Vesselmen admitted that the an nouncement of the affiliation with the federation of labor had the effect de sired by the union officials and that the starting of vessels would probably be delayed a few days. •j According, to Contract With Lake Car riers Members Cjmnot Go Out in Sympathy With Other Organizations. American Federation of Labor Can not Call a Sympathetic 8trike. Some Reasons Why Barter May Be Mis quoted. The following press report received wide circulation at the head of the lakes Thursday: DETROIT, June 8.—Henry C. Barter, secretary-treasurer of the International Longshoremen, Marine and Transport Workers' association, was outspoken to night, in stating that there was no prob ability of the Longshoremen declaring a sympathetic strike in behalf of the Mas ters' and Pilots' association. "The association, of which I am a mem ber, does not violate an agreement," said Mr. Barter alluding to the fact that there is an agreement between the longshore men and lake carriers for this season. "There is one thing our association stands for very clearly," he said, "and that is for our integrity. We want the •masters and pilots to win their battle, but we have had to fight our battles alone. "We have never received any aid from the American Federation of Labor. I challenge President Gompers or anyone else to order us out on a sympathetic strike. "I would advocate withdrawal from the federation in preference to submitting to such an order were' it issued." The above report sounds like a pipe dream to the Labor World. Mr. Barter may be responsible for a part of the interview, but we cannot believe that he would speak so disparagingly of the American Federatior of Labor. No one knows better than Mr. Barter that the A. F. of L. has no power whatever to call a sympathetic strike. Mr. Bar ter knows also that President Gom pers would not order a strike, and if he was called into the matter the first persons he would see would be Pres ident Keefe and Secretary Barter of the Longshoremen, and he Vould no doubt be guided very largely by their advice and judgment. Mr. Barter has been in the labor movement for a number of years and we cannot believe that he was prop erly quoted in the interview. We know him personally, and know that his ideas on a federation of labor in any form are broad and comprehensive. UK Ml sir mm cm IS VOID Claimed That A. F. of L. Charter Was Secured Several Years Ago By the International Pilots Association, but Was Dropped Because of Non-In terest. Pilots Organization Went Out of Business Some Y^ars Ago. CLEVELAND, June 9.—That the charter, said to have been issued to the masters and pilots by. the federa-: tion of-labor, now being~used«B a last resort to keep the membership of the union in line, is not worth the paper it is written on. is the claim made by officials of the Lake Carriers* associa tion. That the clever scheme of the union officials, in advertising the affiliation was proving effective, was shown by the small number of captains who re ported for duty today. Many members of the union, who had already handed in their resignation, decided to with draw them and were reinstated in the union, and a number of masters who had come here to take out their ves sels notified their owners that they would not report for duty. "The charter, the union officials are making their bluff with, is not worth anything," said President Livingstone, of the Lake Carriers, today. "The charter was granted to Captain Mc Gregor, of Detroit, five years ago, for the International Pilots' association and that organization has gone out of existence. Like a drowning man, the union officials are grasping at straws." FIRST CONVICTION MADE UNDER M'EWEN ORDINANCE Employment Agents. Violate. Ordin ance and Are Convicted. The first arrest and conviction was secured under the new employment agents ordinance, which was introduc ed in the Common Council by Alder man McEwen, and subsequently passed by that body. Those convicted wereW. H. Alexander, D. M. White and Albert Boline being fined $17.50 each for exceed ing the limitations imposed on them in operating their business. They are prqj prietors of the Duluth Employment agency at 429 West Michigan street. These were the first prosecutions under the new ordinance governing employment agencies, which was passed last winter. Under its provisions no person may charge more than $1 as a fee for securing employment for laborers in St. Louis county. Alex. Olson swore out the war rant. He stated that he paid the defend ant $2 to get him work "on the Duluth, Missabe and Northern road, at Proctor. What is regarded in court circles as an unusual plea was entered by the de fendants. It is known as nola contendre, signifying a plea of not guilty, with the proviso that they would offer no conten tion. TRAINS COLLIDE. DANVILLE, 111., June 8.—Wabash express train No. 3 west-bound, ran into a Big our freight train at the Danville crossing early today. Several freight cars were smashed and a num ber ditched, but no person was hurt. Two engines were badly damaged and the property loss was heavy.- The crews escaped by jumping.-' There were several narrow escapes. BREAKER BURNED. HAZMiTON, Pa., June 8.—The num ber four, breaker of the Lehigh' & Wilkesbarre Coal company at Auden reid was burned early today. Eight hundred men and boys are thrown out of Work. The loss will amount to $100, 000. The 4** was, caused by. the ex, pl9^onv,ofv4^.w»-of gil^^srvj'g&feh LABdMWORli. MASTERS IF.OFL CAPTAIN MrGREGOR OF PILOTS ASSOCIATION MAKES CLAIM. Gaptairr Says That All Agreements With Other Organizations Have Been Outlawed and that There is Nothing to Prevent a Sympathetic Strike. Holds That if A. F. of L. Does Not Act That They Will lie Held Responsible. CLEVELAND. June 9.—Captain .J. M. McGregor, of the International pil ots' association,, has given out, an Ad ditional statement about th«? 'position of the .Masters', and .Pilots' association and the American Federation of Labor. He says that affiliation has already been accomplished and: that statements to the effect that it'is not its custom to take over a labor organization while in difficulty have no effect. As to the Lake Carriers' association having agreements' with the several other bodies qf union men aboard the b-.&ls, Captain McGregor states that these contracts have been outlawed, because their conditions hav» been violated for more "them ,a mon,th by ibe Lake Ca: rier's.*' kSsOcTatiori,' compelling the men to remain idle. Upon the question of having these union men sailing' with non-union mas ters and pilots, a condition which the "Lake Cairiers' association is asking them to comply ijvith, Captain Mc Gregor states that the union men will not do so and ,the. American Federation of Labor will sustain their refusal. To prove this contention, Captain Mc Gregor urges the Lake Carriers' asso ciation to make a test case. Captain McGregor says that the American Federation of Labor now has the matter in hand and will be held responsible to the public for the con tinuance or ending of the lake tie up. Appeal will be made to the Lake Car riers' association for' arbitration! until further appeal is useless. After that other methods will probably be used to end the strike. WOULD APPEAL TO COMMISSION Strikers Will Bring Trouble to Atten tion of Commerce and Labor Bureau. CLEVELAND, June 8.—According to information given out at the head quarters of the Masters' and Pilots' as sociation here today, the deadlock on the great lakes will be at once, offi cially brought to the attention of the department of commerce and labor, at Washington, with a view to securing a settlement of'existing difference be tween the Masters' and Pilots' and the Lake Carriers' associations through arbitration. Not until every effort has been ex hausted in this direction, it is said, will the power of the American Fed eration of Labor bev evoked in calling sympathetic strikes of^all branches em ployed on lake vessels. It is pointed out that, in the event of a general sympathetic strike of .all such bodies, not leg& jthari a quarter of a million men would be directly or indirectly involved, iflany thousands of coal and iron mitt^rg and railroad men are now idle i^ajddition to the men directly employ«jffi|6n the^vessels and-docks.

Captain Howell today receive^ the following telegram from the Detroit harbor: "At a full meeting, of harbor, No. 47, held here last nighty all members were found to be standing, firm. Those who resigned from the association have withdrawn resignations and re fused to take out boats." BOILERMAKERS GO OUT ON A, STRIKE CHICAGO, June 8—Several hundred boilermakers employed by the Illinois Central railroad were ordered to strike today to enforce minimum wage scale of 42% cents an hour. At the Illinois Central offices here it was stated that less than 50 per cent of the employes obeyed the order and that at several points the men returned to work within a few hours, the differ ences having been adjusted. It was stated that little difficulty Is anticipated as a result of the strike. CASES AGAINST BARRETT DROPPED WASHINGTON, June 8.—The gov ernment today nolle prossed the two re maining indictments against Harrison J. Barrett, former law clerk of the postoffice department, growing out of the postal investigation. The action was taken by United States District Attorney Beach, before.

CLEVELAND, Ohio., June 7.—Max Hayes,* the Cleveland labor writer, tells a good story this week in his paper, the Cleveland Citizen: "I did the best I could," said Charles Wright to Judge Whallon in Police cpurt yesterday. He was charged with deserting his wife and children, nine of them ?minors and all living at home. The man, gaunt, and careworn, stretched, out his long arms and looked appeariiagly at the judge as he told his story.j|' "I' aid the best I could," he contin ued. "I work for the Parry Manufact urign Company. 1 work hard and do all I can get. to, do, but I don't make much. "Sorirtetimes^ Jfrairt^ or $7 on pay helper I have r$53,or"^ $6! l^lti^Brito times are better nofcr andvl' h'av^'inore =work now than I had last winter. Then I often had but $3 left after, the helper was paid and there have'been pay days when there was only $1.50 -in my envelope. I do piece work and sometimes thereiis lit tle to be lSad Wright and his wife quarreled at Easter and he left home. She said he spent his earnings at saloons, but he denied it. "There isn't much left to spend for drink after feeding an dflothing thir teen persons on such wages," he said. "Last winter I walked all the way from our home in Haughville to the factory. I walked maick every day too. It was cold and I was tired, but I couldn't afford to. spend money for car fare." The above is from an Indianapolis daily, which adds that Wright was al lowed to go under a suspended sen tence. It is hardly necessary to morol izo here. The man worked, or rather slaved, for Parry, the pompous and loud mouthed chief of the union-smashing brigade. He averaged probably a dol lar a day upon which to support a large family. Probably he had no right to have a family, but he has one, and he is forced to provide for the wife and children—and on a dollar a day. No one will dispute the fact that "there isn't much left to spend for drink after feeding and clothing thir teen persons on such wages." On the contrary, everybody, except a Parry ite, will wonder how. Charles Wright managed to manipulate his finances so judiciously as to prevent him from go ing stark mad, jumping in the river or getting blind drunk every time he wrung his few dollars' of wages from the tender-hearted Parry. Mr. Parry, is of coursee a ."success ful business 'man." If all his employes are like Wright, Parry must have made heaps of money* He skins his" worker! to a finish, we' are willing to admit, and that is all the more reason why he is the^ beau idle of" all. union, haters. -No doubt if he had Mexican, peons or Chi-, ns coolies' to do his work vfor 50 c^nts a day, he would' become,'all-the more rabid for. an open shop pauper' wages, degredatio'n, drunkenness,' Insanity and crime*. i".

Well they must expect to receive the same treatment. The working class is' meek and pa tient but it has the power to crush such Inhuman tyrants as Parry—if it would only become conscious of the rights of its class, and learn "that might makes rieht. .We hdpe to-see the time when the mighty mass of workers will be united thoroughly in All the organizations of their trade' and at the ballot- box—when labor will be thexpower- in the entire lgnd'/ and when such heartless exploit ers- as-the Parryltes will "iheet JuSt ret ribution thyftoslrtg $8.50, $10, $12, $13.60, $15, $18, $20 and up to $28.
