About 800 non-union employees of the American Tobacco Company. at Rich- mond, FE. have struck for an increase in pay. The strikers are all negro stem- mers, und they ask for an increase of one-half . cent a pound.

A novel plan has been ovolved in Chi. cago by E. P. Dwyer. n prominent labor leader of that city, to place an army of union men on farms in Mississippi. It in said that 30,000tuees luncheon sceured, and the idea is to panel it out in five acro tracts, making homes for 6.000 union families, In the past 20 years. accordin" to the figures of the Labor Bureau at Wash- ington, there have been more. than 2'2.- 000 strikes, involving a loss to employ- ees and employers of over $400,000,000.

United Garment Workers at Balti- more, Md., are putting up a vigorous fight this year to have the uniforms of the police manufactured by persons or firms who have the right to use the union label. For the last four years one firm has furnished the uniforms, and the work has been done by non-union work. men. Although the time for the opening of navigation on tho great lakes is near at hand, few of the. maritime workers' unions have made settlements with em- ployers. The marine unions will submit to no reduction in wages this year un- less the shippers and vessel owners pro- duce better' argument than they have been doing so far. Two new international unions to join the American Federation of Labor have been formed.

At Sharon, Pa,. the Builders' Ex. change has asked all members of the building trades to accept a reduction of lo per cent. in wages on May I, at the expiration of the present scale. There are more than 2,000 members in the building trades in Sharon. In Russia all wages have to be paid in cash. There are no factory stores or store orders. Employers cannot dis. charge workmen contrary to the terms of their contract. nor impose fines ex- cept in accordance with the rules of the Department of Labor. Nearly 100 Lincoln, Nets,. women have applied to the International Women's Labor League for a charter. and pro- pose to organize a union at least 500 strong. These women intend to make a fight for the union label in stores and shops, At a conference ot miners held at Car. diff, “'ales, recently, it was declared that the men would never go back to the sliding-scale system. Whatever the faults of Conciliation Boards, they were better than the old sliding scale. The British Government continues to be denounced by the workers' union for the low wages paid at Government workshops, shipyards, arsenals and gun factories, but all denunciations and reso- lutions sem to have no effect. Unions in all the building trades are rapidly voting in favor of the Proposed Structural Building Trades Alliance of America, which aims to combine 500,000 workers in one compact body. The object is to put a stop to "wildcat" strikes. which men who are now receiving 816 per week will be gradually raised to $19.50. The union agree- to recogniw none but ihat-eiaaa craftsmen. Railroad employees on the linenos Ayres and Rosario and Central Argon- tine lines are still on strike. They de- mand an increase oi 10 per cent. per month in wages of men who are work. ing on monthly salaries and a propor- tionate increase for others and a reduc- tion of working hours to eight a day.

In the annual report of the New York State Board of Mediation and Arbitra- tion. which has just been i-xsned, in given an interesting stutisti‘al history of the building trades strike. and lock- out, which kept an army of men idle ‘in New York last summer. In the building tmdea strike alone, leaving out all other strikes and lockouts in New York city, it is shown that during me sum- mer the mechanics lost in wages 86; 754,751. The aggregate. number of days lost was 1.707.019. and the number of workmen involved 37037, which does not take into account nearly as many laborers and fifteen hundred non-union men who were involved.

The dispute arose with earpen- ters Wet mill work in Chicago. Machinists in the employ of the Eric Railroad Company have decided not to call a strike, and will not force their demand at present for an increase in their wages. The machinists want to in paid 30 cents an hour. At present they are getting 27 cents an hour. Fifteen hundred locked out carriage and wagon workers at Chicago, ill., have aocpted a proposal made them by cm- ployers whose shops have been tied up for six weeks. The settlement provides fur the "open shop," arbitration of all differences and a wage lncreue. Diamond cutters " Amsterdam, Hoi- land, have been locked out to the num- ber of 1,000 men. Some of these were on strike. and the employers retaliated, Union gas workers at San Francisco. Cal., have gained an eight-hour day for all employees. The 10 per cent. inerease in wages will be discussed, and it is probable that if it is not allowed u. com- promise will be effected whereby tt por- tion of it will be granted. so that those empiofedUouid not be able to support, the men who were out. The strike funds were at a low ebb. The 1000 census gives the number of wage workers in the United States an N,285,022, divided as follows: Profes- sional, 1.264.737; Wade and transporta- tion, 4.778.233: domestic and personal service. 5.691.746; manufacturing. 7.122.,- 967; agricultural pursuits, 10,488,916. Nearly all the salt consumed in Italy is produced in Sardinia. For this work about, three thousand mcn are employed, must of whom are convicts.

The members desire $4.50 per day, an advance of tio cents. It is thought the fipht will be a stubborn one. The 16unonths' strike at Wholdale and Frystone colleries, Cuttleford. Eng., ended in victory for the masters. Re- cently most of the 800 men out present- "cl themselves at the pits, but more than " o-thirds of tho places had been filled. In New South Wales, the country of universal unionism and federal owner- ship of public utilities, the working hours are usuallly eight and the mini- mum wages for aborers $1.70 per day, with half-holidays at the expense of em- ployers. Both employers and employees are unionized, the number of separate organizations of the latter being fully 50 per cent. larger than of the former. With the object of promoting wont. en's trades unions in the United States. the Executive Board of the Women's National Trades Union League, at its annual meeting in Boston this week, voted to send a general organizer and secretary throughout the country, who wit not as a business agent, organize unions among women and investigate lockouts and strikes. Employes of the New York, Now Haven and Hartford Railroad are plan- ning to organize a union of unions on the scheme of the Trades Council in New Haven, in which shall be included car workers, trainmen. machinists, con- duetors, shopmen, boiler makers and switchmen. To secure such amalgama- tion will require several weeks of com sideration by the locals. An agreement has been reached " to the acale ot prices between the Alaska Packere’ Association and the Fisher- men’e Union. The unions in all the northern cities have agreed to abide by the deciaion of the San Francisco Union. This matter is of importance, as a strike now would have been most serious, be. muse the Oriental war is making a marked improvement in the salmon in- duetry. The Central Labor Union, at Brock. ton, Mum, has called upon trade union members in the city. government to fa- vor a resolution calling for the passage oi a bill to come before this session of the Legislature, which will legalize peaceful communication with strike- breakers by union men, and the picket- ing plan. _ .
