Y.; Kingston, N. Y. A letter last week from Troy, N. Y., promises a great many openings for Colored girls and women in the shirt and collar factories. The mat ter is now under consideration. Several men to whom transporta tion was sent have not yet shown up in Omaha or Sioux City. If these men have failed to make good their promises it means that no company will care to take a chance with those who remain. It has been reported that the lumber mills at Biloxi, Miss., and Hatties burg have closed down because of the shortage of Colored help. The responses being received by The Monitor from all over the coun try indicate that there is work for probably 50,000 Colored men this summer. By fall the number will in all probability increase. We have information from Pensa cola that a man by the name of L. B. Grooms is representing himself there as labor agent for The Monitor. We have no agents and no men authorized to solicit money for us in any way. Every applicant deals directly with us and everyone has the same oppor tunity as any other. We will thank anyone for sending the name or names cf any person or persons grafting in our name and they will be prosecuted.
