Washington, Nov. 10. H. W. Stein
biese, of St. Louis, president of the Na
tional Building Trades Council, today
testified before the Industrial Commis
sion concerning labor organizations,
arbitration, strikes and other matters.
He said that in 1S94 he had framed a
paragraph in the constitution of the
national council declaring that experi
ence showed that strikes were failures,
but he had since changed his view and
the constitution accordingly had been
changed. As amended, it made strikes
a last resort, ilo contended that strikes
were successful in accomplishing the
ends aimed at.
Labor organisation, he said, is progress
ing in tilts country. This has resulted
in raising the rates of wages aud shorten
ing working hours, though as much
work is accomplished und It is of a better
clues than before. He concedes that
this makes building moro expensive but
he does not believe it prevents the con
struction of any buildimie. He said the
council had a membership of 250,000.
Mr. Steinbiess denounced agreements
that contractors are said to have with
employes that the latter shall work for
none but members of the contractors'
organization and alleged collusion of the
furnishers of materials with contractors.
He said this policy of the contractors is
dangerous and tends to create a trust to
squeeze the public.
Mr. Stelnbiees was asked "Is not or
ganized labor looked upon as a trust V"
"Yes," ho answered, "and I acknowl
edge that it ie a trust. But it is a trust
that benefits mankind."
He did not think the trusts had union
labor, as a member of the commission
suggested.

Cotton Mill Owners Alarmed.
New York, Nov. 10. Forty-five cot
ton mill owners in the South, fearing
that the recent war will seriously change
the trade conditions between this coun
try nnd China, have prepared a petition
which they are sending the secretary of
state. They are afraid Russia will ob
tain possession of Manchuria and will
impoEO tuch heavy duties on American
goods as to render a withdrawal of
American interests from that country
neceseary.
The petition expresses approval of the
"open door" policy and expresses the
hope that the administration will take
such action as it may deem proper to
maintain the protection and perpetuity
of the existing commercial relations
with China, especially as regards Man
churia. This petition is signed by eight
een mill-owners in North Carolina,
twenty.ot'O in South Carolina, four in
Alabama, one in Georgia and one iu
Maryland. The total capital invested in
their mills is $14 ,'(04,500. The total
number of looms is ."1,089, nnd the total
number of spindles is 1,072,054.
