A VOICEJAISED
On Behalf of Compulsory Arbi
tration at Conference.
II. H. Lusk Tells How It Works
in New Zealand.
Chicago, Dec. 18. The second and last
day of the arbitration and conciliation
conference in session here and composed
of practical and experienced men repre
senting both capital and labor, was
marked by the first speech of the con
ference as unequivocally in favor of
compulsory arbitration of labor dis
putes. This speech was delivered by the ven
erable Hugh II. Lusk, ex-member of
parliament of New Zealand. Mr. Lusk
received the closest attention, for while
the great majority of other speakers dis
agreed with him, deeming comuulsorv
arbitration impracticable in this coun
try, history of the success of the system
in New Zealand aroused their deepest
interest. Mr. Lusk. in reply to Mr. Gom
pers' assertion last night that it was
the laboring man's right under any and
all circumstances, or merely because he
pleased to strike, declared that Mr,
Gompers was designating as liberty
what should be called license. "In New
Zealand " said the speaker, "we want
no such liberty. We do not want to
cause suffering among thousands of our
fellow men because we please to strike.
"The main features of the law now in
course." he said, "are, lirst, that it rests
upon the voluntary basis of associations,
so that no individual, whether workman
or employer, can invoke the assistance
of the law unless in his capacity as rep
resenting an organization duly regis
tered under the provisions of the law.
Thus trade unions are made in New
Zealand the basis of compulsory arbitra
tion. Second, that before compulsion is
resorted to, every effort must be made
to bring about an agreement by con
ciliation, applied by a board equally rep
resenting, through freely elected dele
gates, workers and employers. Third,
that, failing an agreement through the
agency of the conciliation board, either
party may, but neither is compelled to,
appeal to the arbitration court for a
final decision. Fourth, that an appeal
to the court acts as a stay of all other
proceedings, whatsoever in dispute; that
is to say, that no employer shall close
his works or dismiss bis workers, and
no workers shall strike against the em
ployers, in connection with the matters
in dispute, until the question has been
dealt with by the court, on pain of be
ing treated as being in contempt and
subject to fine and imprisonment. Fifth,
that the arbitration court itself shall
consist of three members, one represent
ing the workers and one the employers'
associations, while the third, and presi
dent of the court, shall be one of the
judges of the highest court of the coun
try. There are many other provisions
providing for the detail of working
such as the time limit within which a
case must be heard and dealt with by
the court: the publicity of all proceed
ings in the court; the appointment of
skilled assessors in each case, and the
powers of the court to compel the pro
duction of all snch evidence as it con
siders necessary, or, failing such pro
duction, the power to assume that it is
wholly adverse to the side refusing or
delaying its production. All these, how
ever, as well as the provisions for re
ducing the cost of procedure by exclud
ing lawyers from either party, may be
looked on as secondary to the main
piinciples of the system.
"The trial, in externals at least, is less
formal than one in the supreme court;
yet the powers of this arbitration court
are in some respects even greater. It
is not bound by the same hard and fast
rules of evidence as prevail in the su
preme court, and it is specially author
ized to exercise a discretionary power
pot given to the more strictly legal court
in several directions. The object of this
latitude of procedure is to enable the
court to arrive at a conclusion not only
just but politic in many eases of dis
pute, where strict justice might become
oppressive to one or the other of the
parties, or might fail to protect the pub
lic interests involved in the dispute. The
court, indeed, is emphatically one of
equity in its broad, rather than in its
legal sense; and thus it hast been found
not only wise but necessary to rest large
discretionary powers in its judges.
"It would not have been possible for
the capitalists of America or England
to treat with greater contempt the ex
periment of New Zealand four or five
years ago than did the people of the Aus
tralian colonies at that time. Associated
workers, no less than the employers,
pronounced It an utterly unworkable
fad, which was equally opposed to the
interests of both classes, and they con
tented themselves with watching, with
a supercilious smile, the foolish experi
ment which was s"o certain to fail. Year
by year, however, they have found that
it did not fail. Year by year they have
seen trade nourish and manufacturing
energy increase- in greater ratio in New
Zealand than it did among themselves.
While they have had the usual number
of strikes and quarrels, paralyzing trade
and impoverishing the workers, they
have seen that New Zealand was becom

ing more an attraction to the very best
and most skilled of their own workmen,
because it was not only a country where
good wages prevailed, but one in which
men were not in danger of being thrown
suddenly out of work and forced to
spend all they had saved to keep their
families from starving in the next labor
conflict. Less than six years' experience
has been enough to convert two of the
princioal colonies of Australia to the
new experiment, and both New South
Wales and South Australia have lately
decided to try how New Zealand's ex
periment will answer among their own
people.
"On the w-hole, therefore, it is only jus
tice to say that the New Zealand experi
ment ha, in its own country, and subject
to the conditions for which it was de
signed, been a success up to this time. It
has put a stop to strikes and lockouts in
its own countrv : it has given new stability
to trade, and improved the position of the
-workers so much that the numbers of
hands employed in factories has very
nearlv doubled itself since the law was
brought into operation in. ls4: it has been
the means of vastly increasing the prod
ucts of the labor of the country: and
finally, it has gradually reconciled both
workers and employes to Its provisions,
while it has led other, and larger commu
nities to imitate a system that has done
so much for peace and prosperity to the
land of its birth.
"One or two principles which lie at th
verv foundation of the system cannot be
ignored in considering its applicability to
any other countrv than that in which it
began. The most important of these is
the principle, that the interests of every
class in a community are regarded by the
political reformers of New Zealand as
secondary to those of the people as a
whole, it Is no answer at all in hew
Zealand to a complaint, that manufac
turers are growing very rich while work
men continue poor, that it is the inevilalile
result of inequalities of position in the
sociMl scale which elves one man cap
ital and training in business and many
men only their hands and natural intel
ligence. The reply there is, that it is not
good for the people at large that such dis
parities should be encouraged, and there
fore if the capitalists are making too
much out of their business in proportion
to the workers' share, the public thinks
itself not only justified but bound to step
in and assist in remedying the evil.
"I have studied with deep interest for
several years, and with a good deal of
miseiving as to the future, many of the
social and industrial conditions of this
great countrv. I have admired, with no
stinted admiration, its enterprise and en
ergy, and the marvelous results which
these have secured in so short a period.
What I have not admired has been the
social and political evils that seem to me
to be proceeding with a growth that is
quite as vigorous as the development of
the countrv in other and more worthy di
rections. The root of these evils seems
to me to be found in the rapidly widening
gulf between the classes of the rich and
the poor or, in other words, between the
capitalist and the workman. There was
a time, apparently not so very long ago,
when the line that divided these classes
was one which was not hard to pass, and
thousands of the capitalists of today have
undoubtedly risen from the ranks of the
workers. Conditions, as you all know,
have changed, and are changing still
more; and if things go on as thev are
now going, the time cannot be distant
when the line will be as hard to pass in
America as it has long been in Europe. It
appears to me that few greater misfor
tunes could befall this land and its peo
ple than this.
"There was a. time when those who had
the good things of the world might look
on such a state of things with a selfish
complacency, indeed, but that time is
very nearly gone by. The salvation the
only possible salvation of a wealthy class
in the future among civilized men will Ite
the well-being of all the classes which are
a little less fortunate than itself, anil the
consequent ease with which those below
the line of wealth can hope to rise above
it. To secure this I am convinced an ap
peal will require to be made to a high
standard of public interest, and not even
to the enlightened selfishness of the peo
ple directly interested on one side or the
other. For this reason I entirely believe
in the principle of the New Zealand law.
It represents the public interference in
tre.de disputes for the common -interest of
all C' . vs : and it represents more than
this .V--': the-recognition of the principle
that society is charged, for its own pro
tection, with the duty of seeing that jus
tice is done to all classes of its people,
even to the extent of discouraging the
pnwth of riches in one class to the degra
dation of the others.
"I believe that here, as everywhere else,
the settlement of trade disputes must in
the end come to be the act of the whole
people, acting through some kind of un
biased court: and that the countrv- which
is the last to recognize this will fall be
hind in prosperity to the detriment of
every class of its people. But I also be
lieve that the people of America are not
ready for It yet. Thev have still to t ry
ot her substitutes for it. w hich 'may be of
at least partial and temporary advantage.
They have still to learn by experience
that even if these improve "matters they
will bear more improvement still. I trust
that this convention will suggest some
such improvements for trial: I "hope thev
will find greater inducements to lead
workers to associate in unions, and em
ployers in associations, that so thev may
be more easily brought together, arid vol
untary conciliation and arbitration may
be promoted. Above all. I venture to hope
that one result of such a convention as
this may be that representatives both of
wealth and labor may recog ze the su
preme necessity which exists in a great
nation like this for the practical applica
tion of the principle that no individual and
no class can be, or ought to be, free from
the control of the majority of the people
in anything which concerns the public
good. Upon such a recognition will follow
here, as elsewhere, an increase of good
feeling between classes, a new confidence
in the justice of courts, and a prosperity-
no longer naoie to oe crippled and over
thrown by conflicts, ruinous alike to the
well-being of those who take part in them
and of the yet greater public, which is at
present the helpless victim."

JUDGE THE DEFENDANT.
Mandamus Suit Commenced Against
Judge Fischer.
A mandamus proceeding involving a
peculiar proposition of law has been filed
in the supreme court, and final arguments
will be heard at the next session.
The preliminary writ allowed today is
directed to E. L. Fischer, judge of the
Wyandotte county district court, ordering
him to sign a case made for the supreme
court upon an appeal from a decision of
his court.
Henry MeOrew, of Kansas City, repre
sented the plaintiff in a foreclosure suit.
A trial was had before Judge Fischer, re
sulting in a verdict and judgment for the
defendants.
The plaintiffs immediately took the nec
essary steps to appeal the controversy,
preparing a case made to whicli the de
fense suggested an amendment including
all of the evidence introduced at the trial.
To this the plaintiff objected, refusing
finally to admit the amendments sub
mitted bv the defense.
The controversy over the amendments
was taken to the judge, who refused to
sign the case made unless the plaintiff ad
mitted the amendments suggested by the
defense.
To this the plaintiff took exceptions and
has brought the mandamus proceedings to
compel Judge Fischer to sign the case
made without the amendments desired by
the defense.
DEAD "ROBBER FOUND.
Cut His Throat After Haying
Been Wounded.
New Orleans.Dec.lS. Detectives found
today the body of one of the robbers
who on last Thursday night held up
within the city limits of New Orleans
the Chicago mail train on the Illinois
Central railroad, shot Conductor Kin
nabraw and made theor escape with a
number of registered packages. The
watch of Conductor KInnabrew. found
on the dead man, leaves no doubt of his
identity as the leader of the gang who
held up the train.
Shortly after the hold-up on Thursday
night Officers Daly and Lucich, while
hastening to the scene, discovered two
men carrying a bag and walking rapidly
between the Illinois and Mississippi Val
ley tracks. The officers halted the men,
but instead of surrendering, they began
to shoot. Both officers responded and a
lively fusilade followed. The men finally
dropped a United States mail pouch and
fled. Since then the detectives have be?i
carefully examining the swamp near the
city. At an early hour today their
search was rewarded with the finding of
a body.
Late today the dead robber was identi
fied as Channing B. Barnes, alias John
H. Nelson, alias Josk Nelson. He was
wanted for holding tip the Illinois Cen
tral train near WTickliffe, Ky., last Julv
and robbing the safe or the American
Express company. His brother, Charles
W. Barnes and Richard Doyle were con
victed for this latter robbery and each is
serving a sentence in the Kentucky state
penitentiary. When the attempt was
made to arrest Channing Barnes in St.
Louis he. shit Chief Special Agent Mur
ray and made his escape. When the
body was discovered it was found that
Barnes had cut his throat and evidently
just died. His own watch and that of
Conductor Kinnabrew were running. He
had been wounded in the back and left
wrist. Registered letters and dynamite
were found on the body.

PORTO RICO CASE
Is Being Argued in the Uuited
States Supreme Court.
Washington, Dec. IS. Arguments in
the Porto Rico-Philippines case, involv
ing the status of those countries to the
United States were resumed in the
United States supreme court today. The
widespread interest in the cases was
shown by a large attendance of prom
inent members of te bar and by a
crowd of spectators which filled the
public area and overflowed into the cor
ridor. Senators and representatives in
congress who had taken part in the
Porto R.ico-Philippine legislation drop
ped in as the arguments proceeded and
gave attentive ear to the proceedings.
Prior to the opening of the court the
counsel conferred and arranged a gen
eral plan of procedure, by which Ed
ward C. Perkins, senior counsel in the
Porto Rico case would conclude his
argument today being followed by Law
rence Harmon, counsel In the Philip
pines case. The appellants would then
give way to Attorney General Griggs
for the presentation of the case in be
half of the government. This it was ex
pected would continue until tomorrow
when Charles H. Aldrich, former solici
tor general and senior counsel in the
Philippines case will close in behalf of
the appellants.
Mr. Perkins on resuming his argu
ment took up the Dred Scott and other
cases relating to the extension of the
constitution over territory. Soon after
Mr. Perkins began Justice Brown inter
posed an inquiry as to whether Mr. Per
kins had examined the most recent
cases relating to the extension of the
constitution to territories and also
whether he had examined those sections
of the United States statutes wherein
congress extended the constitution to
certain territories. Mr. Perkins said he
had examined both of those branches
and he hoped to be able to present an
swers to the contentions made as to
them.

TOLSTOI'S NEW PLAY.
Novelist Constructs Drama With Al
leged Corpse as Central Figure.
London, Dec. 18. Here is the plot of
Tolstoi's forthcoming drama, "The Cor-
isse":
A minor official marries a girl for love,
but soon after takes to drink and loses
his situation. Finally, after abandoning
his wife, he sinks to a mere huckster la
the rag market in Moscow.
The wife takes a position as maid. But
the director of the establishment where
she is employed falls in love with her
and wins her affection. They resolve not
to live together without a marriage cer
emony. They, therefore, induce the girl's
husband to play the part of one deal to
the world, a role he is quite willing; to
undertake for a consideration.
The girl thereupon informs the police
that her husband has completely disap
peared, and even pretends to recognize
as his the body of an unknown man
found drowned in the river. The mar
riage takes placid but the secret of the
lovers is made known through a public
house brawl in which the degraded hus
band relates that he is "a corpse," and
how he came to be so. The police a.e
called in, and the trio, convicted of big
amy, are banished to Siberia, where th"
denouement takes place as in Tolstoi's
novel, "Resurrection."
Tho play will probably bp staged next
month at the Imperial Alexander thea
ter, Petersburg.
