The American Federation of Labor
'was organized to aid the laboring
classes 'by rendering employment
and the means of subsistence less
precarious by securing for the work
Ingman an equitable share of the
fruits of his toll." It Is composed
of International, national, state, cen
tral and local Unions, and represents
the groat bulk of organized labor In
the United States and Canada. It

BOSTON. Nov. 9. Tho twenty-third an
nual convention of the American Federa
tion of Labor, which was opened in this
city today, and which will continue prob
ably for at least 11 days, got Into work
ing ordor before an adjournment was
t-Ucen late this aftornoon. President Sam
uel Gompers delivered his annual address
to the delegates, and Secretary Frank
Morrison and Treasurer John B. Lennon
presented their annual statements. About
GO delegates were present when tho ses
sion was called to order.
John Mitchell, president of the United
Mlneworkers, is present and will take a
l-romlncnt part In the deliberations.
Presldont Gompers' address took up
mot-t of the afternoon. It showed that
the gain in membership of the affiliated
intci latlonal unloita and of the American
Federation of &abor during the last year
i.-d been 442,100. Mr. Gompers reviewed
at length what the Federation had accom
plished during the year, and he made
numerous recommendations. He pointed
. t that the grave danger which con
fronted the labor. movement was the In-t.-rm-cine
strike due to the conflicting
claims of trade jurisdiction. Mr. Gom
inrs condemned such anti-trust legislation
is was acretly against labor and urged
eternal vfellance with respect to legisla
tion. '
lTrsldent Gompers roported that never
before has there been such uniform
growth In unionism as during the past
year. The, American Federation of La
bi r has issued new charters as follows:
International unions, 0; state federations,
T, central labor unions, 171; local trade
anions and federal labor unions, 1139.
Ti.t. gain in membership has been 442,100.
At the end of the fiscal year, October L
I9GS, the number of International unions
in the federation was 113; state federa
tions, 2&; qentral labor unions, 549; .local
trade unions and federal labor unions,
1747.
The average membership during the year
was 1,46,SX). In discussing the course to
be pursued by organized labor with regard
to & possible continuation of business de
pression, Mr. Gompers said:
"It is the height of economic unwisdom
to curtail the consuming power of the
masses as a means to indu&trlal revival
or prosperity. No industry, no country,
has e or become great or ever can become
great founded upon the poverty of Its
workmen. The working people should re-j-Ist
any attempt to reduce their wages or
to increase their hours of labor.
"We are better organized and better
prepared to resist encroachments upon
our condition than ever before; and 1
perchance some of our efforts may bo
lost, it is better to resist and lose than
not to resist at all; for to complacently
accept a reduction In wages is simply to
Invite Its repetition while it enfeebles our
ability to resist further efforts in the
game direction.
"We urge as a way out that wages be
maintained, even if necessary to resist
reductions; that as a substitute for dis
charges of workmen the work to be per
formed be divided, thus not only -helping
M bear each other's burdens, but more
qu.ckly to restore activity In Industry,
trade and commerce."
Discussing "Mongolian Immigration,"
President Gompers said:
Efforts liave been made to make it ap
pear that Chinese arc necessary to the
imustry of the American possessions.
That this claim is unfounded is demon
strated not only by the investigation
made by the representative of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor sent to Japan,
and the Philippines, but is born out by
tho statements of native and American
workmen to the effect that there are suf
ficient numbers of mon to perform all the
work and all the kinds of work which
now or which may in the near future be
required. From every section comes the
complaint and the warning that unre
stricted Japanese immigration is as grave
a danger today as was at any time In
our history the restricted immigration
of Chinese. This convention should em
phatically declare its position on the im
migration question, not only from Conti
nental Europe, but from China and Japan
Into the mainland and the insular pos
sessions of the United States."
Mr. Gompers also spoke of anti-trust
agitation and said under the provisions
of the Sherman anti-trust law the only
persons ever Indicted were a number of
workmen who sought to protect their in
terests against an opponent.
"Under the pretense' of its provisions
and tho so-called Interstate commerce
law." ho continued, "the Federal courts
have Issued many injunctions enjoining
workmen from doing those things for
which thore is absolutely no prohibition
In the laws, and the doing of which Is
not at variance with tho constitution or
say of the laws of our country. It is
worse than folly to join in the hue and
cry raised by our opponents and the" fad
dists for legislative demands ostensibly
aimed at combinations of capital, but
really directed against the organizations
of labor."
Frank Morrison, secretary of the Feder
ation, presented his annual report.
It showed a membership of 1,745,270 upon
tvhlch affiliated unions paid per capita
tax in September.
The financial statement was read by
John B. Lonnon, treasurer of the Feder
ation. Tho report showed that the Income
of the year was $247,800, tho expenditures
$196,015, and the balance on hand $S4,0Q0.
All these reports wero referred to tho
committee on distribution.
The convention adjourned until tomor
row morning.
m EXTRA SESSION.
(Continued from First Page.)
nounced it showed Cannon to have re
ceived .193 votes and Williams 166, Can
non being declared elected as Speaker of
the House.
"Williams (Dem., Miss.) and Grosvenor
(O.) were appointed a committee to notify
Cannon of his election and to escort him
to the Speaker's chair. As Cannon en
tered with Williams and Grosvenor, mem
bers on both sides arose and joined In the
ovation to the newly-elected Speaker.
"Williams introduced Cannon in a brief
but cordial speech. Cannon, in response,
said:
"If I err in the duties of office it will
be an error of the head, not from the
heart. As to my duties as Speaker I be
speak the kindly co-operation of each
member of the House."
Bingham (Pa.) upon whom falls the
titular honor of "Father of the House"
in accordance with custom, administered
the oath to the Speaker. The members
were then sworn in by Mr. Cannon.
Following this a resolution was adopted
re-electing the old officers of tho House.
By resolution, the Speaker appointed
a committee to notify the President and
the Senate of the election of Cannon as
Speaker, and McDowell as clerk.
Another resolution was adopted -appointing
a committee to join a committee
from the Senate to notify the President
of the presence of a quorum, and they
were ready to recelvo any communication
he might make.
Dalzell (Pa.) offered the resolution
adopted in the Republican caucus.
Williams (Miss.) said the minority
should have a larger representation on
tho committee than now provided, saying
when their representation was reduced it
was explained to have been due to tho
fact that the Democratic membership
had been decreased. Now, he said. It
has been increased and he hoped the ma
jority would grant the request,
DeArmond (Mo.) also spoke for an in
creased representation .of the minority on
committees.
On demand the ayes and noes wero
called, the resolution being agreed to by
a vote of 191 to 1G5.
Grosvenor (O.) offered a resolution
which was agreed to, fixing 12 o'clock
noon as the dally hour of meeting.

DEMOCRATS IN CONSULTATION.
Steering-Committee Talk Shows Cu
ban Treaty Will Be Opposed.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9. Tho Demo
cratic steering committee of the Senato
was in session for two hours today, the
greater part of which time was devoted to
the consideration of the situation on tho
isthmus. The situation was discussed in
all its aspects, especial attention being
given to the allegation that this country
had been Instrumental In producing the
revolt at Panama and Colon. A number
of Senators expressed the opinion that
the Administration had not been un
friendly nor Ignorant of the movement
from its beginning, but it was decided to
wait until there is further light on the
question before advising the Democrats
to take a position on the question as a
party.
Some Senators expressed the opinion
that the mass of the people are so anxious
to secure a canal that many persons
would even indorse a revolution on the
Isthmus If It should prove a means of se
curing one. Senator Morgan was before
the committee for quite a time, and ad
vocated a vigorous policy of criticism.
The steering committee also discussed
the policy to be pursued with reference
to the proposed measure putting In force
the Cuban treaty. It was decided to post
pone further consideration on this ques
tion until the House sends over its bill.
It was apparent, however, that a majority
of the Democratic Senators -would oppose
the bill.
The steering committee also took up the'
subject of reorganizing the Senate com
mittees, and decided to meet from day to
day for the purpose of filling the Demo
cratic committee vacancies.

"A good piano Is & joy
forever; a poor ono an
abomination."
PIANO LETTER NO. 10
Piano Buyers:
We said In our letter No. 4 that we
would have something more to say on
the subject of RELIABILITY, and it is
upon this and Its relation to cheap pianos
that wo want to talk today.
While It Is true that In later years the
use of modern methods of manufacture
lias lessened the cost of production to a
certain extent. It Is more than equally
true that there are more unworthy pianos
In the market today, and still more un
worthy men to take your money for them,
than there ever were.
Your Ignorance of this latter condition of
things has led you to expect more for your
money than It will buy, or rather it has
led you to underestimate the value of a
really good piano. If you don't learn
this now, and Insist upon being supplied
with a piano for a less amount than a
good piano can be sold for, you WILL
learn It as Father Time leaves his im
prints on the piano the salesman so glibly
told you would outlive your children's
children.
We want it understood for all time that
we consider the existence of the cheap
"thumpbox" an outrage on society and
a travesty on the divine art music Wo
consider the dealer who sells it, by his
sin of omission In not warning the cus
tomer of its true character, equally guilty
with the manufacturer In his sin of com
mission in making It.
If a customer comes into our store and
demands a piano for an amount of money
that will not buy a reliable piano we
make an honest endeavor to put him on
the right track. If he accepts our im
portunities as an evidence of greed on our
part and a less scrupulous dealer gets his
patronage, we are sorry equally so for
him as for ourselves. He will be, too
after a while.
It is far harder, Piano Buyer, to buy
a piano at medium price, and do It Judic
iously, than to buy a high-priced one,
and it behooves such buyers to look well
Into the character of the house where
they Intend doing business.
How long have they been in business?
"What is their financial standing?
What is the character of their methods?
Are they well spoken of?
Are they sensational or conservative?
Wo want to say that we never place
upon any piano a stronger guarantee than
it deserves. If you will consult us regarding-
your purchase we will give you
sound advice, advice founded on our ex
perience and an unblemished business rep
utation of over twenty-seven years.
Yours truly,
Allen SGiibert-Ramaker Co.

MRY W LIMELIGHT.
Came to See the Show, but Was Seen
Instead.
Brooklyn Eagle.
Mrs. Mary W. Young, 23 years old, of
Morris Park, L. L, came to town yester
day to seo a show. Mary went to a thea
ter where a "thriller" called "Wealth and
Poverty" Is holding forth. Mary had
money and she purchased a box seat.
During the progress of the play the sins
-of poverty wero so vividly portrayed that
she went into the greenroom that adjoins
the cafe and called for a long drink. Two
or three times she repeated the dose, until
she lost her memory and Imagined that she
was wealthy. The good points of the per
formance escaped her notice until long
after they were past. Then she would
break forth into loud applause while the
rest of the audience was getting ready
to snivel at the pathos of the play.
When Mary was particularly well pleased
sho would scream or shriek. The actors
might just as well have been playing to an
empty house, for the attention of tho
audience was riveted on Mary, and the
show was allowed to go hang. Tho stars
of the play, standing in the limelight and
calling upon heaven to witness their
wrongs, were never heard, and the come
dian of the show, try as hard as he might,
couldn't raise a laugh, for Mary had the
audience spellbound.
An usher, in the polite way they have In
East New York, told her that a friend
wanted to see her down stairs, but she
was not to be won away so easily. An
other usher told her a few minutes later
that some one wanted to speak to her on
tho phone. She only twiddled her fingers
at him and the house shook with applause.
Finally Manager C. A. Williams went Into
the box. By cajolery and promises he half
helped and half dragged Mary away from
the box, and the show went on. Special
Ofilcer William Hatton then stepped Into
tho breach and offered to assist Mary
down stairs, but she openly defied him. A
patrolman and a roundsman of Captain
Harklns command, who thought the town
was safe and had just stepped In to see
an act or two, were then called upon.
It was all the three cops could do to get
Mary to the sidewalk, and even then she
wouldn't be quiet, so she was taken up to
the Liberty-avenue station and placed In
the care of the matron over night. This
morning she was very docile when ar
raigned before Magistrate Furlong In tho
Gates-avenue court. Her husband stepped
forward after the story of her appearance
at yesterday's matinee had been told and
said to the Magistrate:
"Your Honor, I never knew her to drink
before, and I jon't think sho will ever do
so again. If you'll give me tho chance, I'll
see that she never appears before you
again, -
"You can have the chance; take her
home. Sentence suspended," said the
Magistrate.

their own, and as a consequence tho room
suffered considerable damage. It Is said,
and some glass was broken which had to
be setUed for by tho strenuous sophs,
much to the delight of the freshles. Sun
day night the freshmen made their coup

to see, posted all over Beacon Hill and
around the university, a flyer about the
size of a theatrical eighth-sheet, ridiculing

manner. The poster was headed In bold

Under this was the word "attention," and

Where, oh, where can they be?
They never are, and they' never wete;
They'd only like to be.

SAY TLEASE," THEff "DEAE"
Courtesy Is Greater Than Love, As
serts This Speaker.
Chicago Tribune.
That "please" Is a word of more magic
than "dear," and that a courteous word1 of
parting has more weight than a perfunc
tory kiss, was the doctrine preached Tues
day to Chicago women.
Mrs. B. T. Arnold, president of the Chi
cago Commons Woman's Club, was tho
speaker, and her subject was the "Re
sponsibility of Wives."
"I am of the opinion," said Mrs. Ar
nold, "that most marital dlfflculUes arise
from the fact that many wives treat their
husbands worse and are more persistently
rude and insulting to them than to any
one else. And I am convinced that all
that Is absolutely necessary for a husband
and wife to 11'e together happily Is self
control and good manners.
"There need not be a particle of love.
Some of the most unhappy couples are
those who love each other dearly, yet
have so little self-control that they are
continuously In a turmoil. Many couples,
with almost no mutual affection, live con
tentedly because they do not consider that
marriage does away with the common
courtesies due each other."
Another speaker who dispensed domes
tic advice was Dr. Yamel Kin, the Chi
nese woman lecturer, who told the Chi
cago Woman's Aid of Sinai congregation
that her "countrymen could teach Ameri
cans how to solve the divorce problem.
"In China." she said, "we have few di
vorces and no suits for breach of promise.
But there, you know, the engagement Is
as binding as the marriage, although the
bridegroom rarely sees the bride before
tho wedding day. America might not tie
so troubled with the divorce problem If
parents, as In China, had the supervision
of the marriage arrangements.
"Perhaps faithfulness to his bargain Is
a characteristic of the Chinese. Even
whon the parents palm off a less favored
sister upon the unsuspecting groom he
rarely lives other than happily with her.
"Of course, we have elopements in Chi
na, but hey are not elopements In your
sense of the term. They are mock affairs,
agreed upon by the families of the couple
to avoid the expense of a formal wedding."
