“Where ie yonr mother ?”
“In Paris. She’s a washwoman in the
rne de la Gontte d’Or.”
••You’re about fourteen are you not?”
he asked.
“How much? Fourteen I Why, I.m
sixteen. It’s true I’m not very large.
The girls here don’t grow much.”
* *
"Another chance of being buried un
der the earth,” murmured Cheval. “It
don’t make any difference to the com
pany, though.”
“Thieves!” growled Levaque. “Tbev
are alwavs trying to get the best of us. ’
“Hold your tongues; you’ve said
enough now.”
“You’re right,” said Levaque, lowering
his voice. “It’s risky to talk like that.”
A fear of spies constantly haunted
them, even in that darkness, as if the
stockholders’ coal, still in the vein, had
ears.
* * *
Maheu brok out: “Great God! That
is not just I believe in being calm but
they would make anyone violent. Have
you heard? the cars cut down and a
percentage for the timbering! it is only
another plan to pay us less.”
« * *
Etienne wished to form a branch of
that famous "International,” which had
just been established in London. "Was
not this the country for such an effort,
where justice would at last' triumph 7”
In six months they would conquer the
world, they would dictate laws to all in
dustries, regulating universal labor.
“Foolishness," repeated Jouvarine.
“I've talked this ail over. Your Karl
Marx is willing that this thing should
govern itself and the only concerted
effort should be with reference to
creasing the wages of workingmen. I do
not believe in your ideas. Burn every
thing ; crush the people; annihilate all;
and, when nothing remains of this rot
ten world, perhaps from its ruins a bet
ter one will arise.”
Etienne thought a great deal of the
coming strike; the affair about timber
ing would end badly ; it needed only a
very slight act of injustice to arouse all
the miners.
** • *
Then Maheu exclai ned : “Great God !
I’m not rich, but I’d give 100 sous not to
die until I’ve seen all that. What a
turning upside down. Do you think it
will be soon, and ho v are people going
to bring it around ?”
Etienne again commenced to speak.
The old society would break up, it could
not last longer than a few months. He
went into the work of execution more
vaguely, miking up vrhat he had read,
but not fearing before these ignorant
people to launch out into explanations,
which even he did not understand. All
the workings were smoothed down into
a certainty of easy triumph, which would
terminate the misunderstanding be
tween classes. The Maheos seemed Ao
comprehend, accepting the most miracu
lous solutions with the blind faith of
new believers.
Alzire, who understood part of it, im
agined this happiness to be a very warm
v house, where the children played and
ate all they wished. Catherine never
took her eyes from Etienne, and when
he became silent she paled and shivered
as though with cold.
Etienne’s influence became enlarged.
He revolutionized the whole alley, while
he raised himself in the esteem of his
friends.
#■ * *
1 * * * A cracking w ; as heard and
a cave-in engulfed the man %nd child.
Bebert, leaving bin train, ran forward
calling: "Jeanlin is under there 1”
At that moment Maheu was arriving
at the spot,.with Zacharie and Etienne.
Filled with despair, de could only cry
out: “My God'l My God!”
Not a breath came from the darkness.
The little one must haye been crushed
at once.
“Make haste! make haste!” said Rich
omme, who had already gone to work.
* * *
“You’re his father are you not?” asked
the doctor raising his head. “Don’t erv,
try and help me. He’s not dead yet.”
He found two simple ruptures. But
the right leg trade him feel uneasy. He
feared it would have to be amputated.
* * *
“So they have struek,” said she quietly,
when he had told her. “Well, we are
not compelled to stop eating are we?”
She became stubborn when he told
her the breakfast could not take place
AatUfra-yieit taSt. Thomasnmst-he^mt
off. She found an answer to all
“Moreover, you ought to take more in
terest in that marriage than in the stu
pidities of your workmen. Besides, I
want it, so do not contradict me.”
Mme. Gregoire and Cecile at each side
of her husband, M. Gregoire and M.
Demeulin at her right and left, and Paul
between the young girl and her father.
“You will ercuse me. I wanted some
oysters. I proposed "hat my cook should
take the carnage and go for some, but
he was afraid of beir-g stoned.”
“I hope, however, they -will allow us
to lunch,” said M. Gregoire.
Laughs again broke forth.
* "Suppose we close the curtains,” said
Megrel,
Then one joke followed another; they
would no longer put down a glass or
fork without (be greatest precaution;
they saluted each plate like a waif
escaped from the pillaging of a conquered
city | but behind that forced gaiety was
a secret fear which tetrayed itself in in
voluntary glances towards the road as if
a bind of people, dying of hunger,
watched the table from the outside.
“It will be like all the rest, end after
fifteen days of idleness. They will roam
around the saloons; then when they are
too hungry will return to the mine.”
“Monsieur Gregoire, I warn you to
watch your house. They may try to
rob you."
“To rob mel” cried he in amazement
“And why to rob me 7”
“Are you not a stockholder of Mont
son ? You do nothing. Ton live from
the work of others. Believe me, if the
Bocial Revolution was to triumph, it
would compel you to return your fortune
as stolen money.”
“Stolen money, my fortune! Did not
my great grandfather work hard for the
first sum put in the mine? Have we
not all the risks of the enterprise ? Do
I make a bad use of my income?”
Madame Hennebean, alarmed at see
ing the mother and daughter also filled
with fear, hastened to interfere, saying:
“Paul was only joking.”
* * *
“Be quiet for God’s sake! Here are
the gendarmes.” •
They could not run away, they had
not even voted either for the adhesion
or the continuation of the strike. Every
one tried to speak at once. Finally the
president thought of a plan to vote bv
acclamation. Arms were the
delegates hastily declared they would
adhere in the name of their absent com
rades. And it was thus that the 10,000
coal men of Montson became members
of the International.
i* * *
CATHERINE AS A “SCAB” MINES.
At Jean-Bart, Catherine, for an hour,
had been pushing her car: and Bhe was
so covered with perspiration that she
stopped for a moment to wipe her face.
At the old work was a gallery, very deep,
in which ten years before an explosion
of fire damp had set fire to the vein.
Deprived of air the fire ought to have
gone out: but a draft somewhere kept
it alive, heating up the wall like the
bricks of an oven.
After two trips, Catherine again be
came suffocated. What was the matter
with her that day ? She never felt such
a giyiDg way in her bones. They
breathed all sorts of gas which came out
of the coal with a little sound like the
bubbling of a spring. She knew it well,
that bad air, the air of death the miners
called it. Her ears were ringing and
her head was as though on fire. Surelv
it was the heat that was making her
sick. Then she concluded to remove
her chemise, for even that was a torture,
as the least wrinkle in it cut and burned
her, so she untied the string and let the
last article of clothing drop. She was
in such agony that she would have torn
her very skin off if she had been able.
Then, entirely nude, she went on with
her terrible labor. Then in the shadows
everything commenced to go around,
her heart almost stopped beating, and,
overcome, she fell over on the ground
to die in that air of asphyxy.
• A rumbling noise was heard. They
grew uneasy. What now ? was this an
other accident? Miners passed them
every second and none knew what was
the matter.
Suddenly an ' overseer passed them,
crying : “The cables are cut, the cables
.. " . i'. -ra-i.j
and who had cut them when the men
were at the bottom ? That was mon
strous ! But the voice of another over
seer broke out. The Monston strikers
had cut the cables !
“To the ladders ! to the ladders I”
* * *
Then Catherine slipped. Only five
ladders remained to climb; they had
taken nearly an hour for the ascent.
She never knew how she arrived, though
1 she was carried on some one's shoulders.
1 Suddenly she found herself in the daz
zling sunlight, in the midst of a howling
mob who hooted at her.
* * *
"Bread J bread ! bread !”
On arriving at Gaston-Marie, with a
body of 2,500 men, they broke every
thing around them. In less than a
quarter of an hour the fires were de
stroyed, the boilers were emptied, and
the buildings over-run and devastated.
But it was especially the engine they
•attacked. Then they turned back and
the order ran :
“To Monston !to the directors! Bread !
bread! bread!”
* * *
Under this shower of stones the little
troup was disappearing. Fortunately
nearly all struck too high; the wall was
shattered bv them. What was to be
done? The idea of turning back flushed
the captain’s pale faee for a moment;
but it was no longer possible; tbev
would be cut to pieces by the slightest
movement. A brick had just struck the
visor of his kepi; drops of blood ran
from his forehead. Several of -his men
were already wounded. Were they to
is--‘hia pesitidu any longer?
Twice the captain was on the point of
ordering them to fire. Anguish choked
him; the internal combat of a few sec
onds was confusing his' ideas of duty.
The hail of bricks redoubled, and he was
.opening his mouth to give the order,
“Fire!” when the gnns were discharged
themeel ves, —three shots first; then five ;
then the roll of it Volley, then a single
shot a long time after in the utter
silence. A stupor followed; they had
fired, the gaping crowd remained
motionless, not yet believing it. But
piercing screams arose while the trum
pet sounded the order to cease firing. A
panic followed, a race like that of cattle
fired upon last in the flight through the
mud.
Suddenly, when the engineers decided
to advance, a powerful convulsion of the
earth made them flee. Subterranean
detonations broke out like a monstrous
artillery cannonading the abyss. The
boiler room burst open and disappeared.
Then, in the square tower, the hoisting
engine rattled and fell on its face like a
man cut down by a bullet And then
they saw a frightful spectacle; the en
gine was wrenched from its massive
foundation ; its arms were quartered as
if striving with death; it fell off with its
crank, its giant knee loosened as if by a
lever, —it expired, crushed, swallowed
up. Onlv the chimney, thirty metres
high, stall remained standing, trembling
like a death in a hurricane. They
thought it would crumble and flv
into powder; but all atonce it
sank down like a stone swal
lowed up by the earth; and nothing was
left, not even the point of a lightning
rod. It was finished; that horrid beast,
crouching in that hollow, Btuffed with
human flesh, no longer breathed its great
long breath. The entire Voreux had
sank into the abyss.
THE KNIGHTS OP LABOR.
Preamble and Declararton of Principles
of Tikis Great and Growing
Order of Workingmen.
The alarming development and aggressive
ness of great capitalists and corporations, un
less checked, will inevitably lead to the
pauperization and hopeless degradation of
the tolling masses.
It Is imperative, If we desire to enjoy the
full blessings of life, that a check be placed
upon unjust accumulation, and the power for
evil of aggregated wealth.
This much-desired object can be accom
plished only by the united efforts of those
who obey the divine injunction, “In the
sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread.”
Therefore we have formed the Order of
Knights of Labor, for the purpose of organiz
ing and directing the power of the industrial
masses, not as a political party, for it Is more
—ln It are crystalized sentiments and meas
ures for the benefit of the whole people, but
it should be borne In mind, when exercising
the righto! suffrage, that most of the objects
herein set forth can only be obtained through
legislation, and that It Is the duty of all to as
sist In nominating and supporting with their
votes only such candidates as will pledge
their support to those measures, regardless of
party. But no one shall, however, be com
■pelled to vote with the majority, and calling
upon all who believe in securing “the greatest
good to the greatest number,” to join and as
sist us, we declare to the world that our aims
are:
I. To make Industrial and moral worth, not
wealth, the true standard of individual and
National greatness.
11. To secure to the workers the full enjoy
ment of the wealth they create, sufficient
leisure In which to develop tneir intellectual,
moral and social faculties; all of the benefits,
recreation and pleasures of association; in a
word, to enable them to share' in the gains
and honors of advancing civilization.
In order to secure these results, we demand
of the State :
111. The establishment of Bureaus Labor
Statistics, that we may arrive at a correct
knowledge of the educational, moral and fi
nancial condition of the laboring masses.
IV. That the public lands, the heritage of
the people, be reserved for actual settlers ; not
another acre for railroads or speculators, and
that all lands now held for speculative pur
poses be taxed to their full value.
V. The abrogation oi all laws that do not
bear equally upon capital and labor, and the
removal of unjust technicalities, delays and
discriminations in the administration of
Justice,
VI. The adoption of measures providing
for the health and safety of those engaged in
mining, manufacturing and building indus
tries, and for indemnification to those engaged
therein for injuries received through lack of
necessary safeguards.
VII The recognition by incorporation, of
trades, unions, orders, and such other associa
tions as may be organized by the working
masses to improve their condition and pro
tect their rights.
VIII. The enactment of laws to compel
eurporations to pay tUcn V....L - weeKly,
n lawful money, for the labor of Jlie preced
ing week, and giving mechanics and laborers
a first lien upon the product of their labor to
the extent of their full wages.
IX. The abolition of the contract system on
National, State and Municipal works.
X. The enactment of laws providing for ar
bitration between employers and employed,
and to enforce the decision of the arbitrators.
XI. The prohibition by law of the employ
ment of children under 15 years of age In
workshops, mines and factories.
XII. To prohibit the hiring out of convict
labor.
XIII. That a graduated income tax be
levied.
And we demand at the hands of Congress:
XIV. The establishment of a National mon
etary system, In which a circulating medttim
In necessary quantity shall issue direct to the
people, without the intervention of banks;
that all the National issue shall be full legal
tender In payment of all debts, public and
private; and that the Government shall not
guarantee or recognize any private banks, or
create any banking corporations.
XV. That interest bearing-bonds, bills o
credit or notes shall never be issued by the
Government, but that, when need arises, the
emergency shall be met by Issue of legal ten
der, non-interest-beanng money.
XVI. That the importation of foreign labor
under contract be prohibited.
XVII. That, in connection with the post
office, the Government shall organize finan
cial exchanges, safe deposits and facilities for
deposit of the savings of the people in small
sums.
XVIII. That the Government shall obtain
possession, by purchase, under the rights oi
eminent domain, of all telegraphs, telephones
and railroads, and that hereafter no charter
or license be issued to any corporation for
construction or operation of any means of
transporting intelligence, passengers or
freight.
And while making the foregoing demands
upon the State and National Government, we
will endeavor to associate our own labors;
XIX. To establish co-operative institutions
such as will tend tb supercede the wage sys
tem, by the introduction of a co-operative in
dustrial system.
XX. To secure for both sexes equal pay for
equal work.
XXI. To shorten the hours of labor by a
general refusal to work for more than eight
hours.
XXII. To pursuade employers to agree to
arbitrate all diflerences which may arise be
tween them and their employees, In order
that the bonds of sympathy between them
may be strengthened and that strikes may be
rendered unnecessary
