American FtcUration Freiidtat Bpaakt
I Enthusiastically of Organized Labor.
MOm OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO STRIKERS
Mr. Oonptu Sar Central Orn-aatsa.
ttoa la la Hearty Accord with
Irlklia; Workmen ot
, , the t nloaI'arlfle.
. "Organized labor has coma to Star, and
those great corporations which are now
dealing with strlkee, the mining and rail
road interests, will. If they have not already,'-realize
thte fact. We bare passed
that stige of anger or depression and are
Bow proceeding along the most Intelligent
lines for the preservation and protection of
Bur Interests."
Samuel Oompars, president of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, spoke In these
terms yesterday morning of the Industrial
situation of the country. Mr. Oompers, with
President W. D. Mahon of the .Street Rail
way Employes' association, arrived In
Omaha yesterday morning, and with Presi
dent James O'Connell of the International
association of Machinists, who arrived In the
afternoon, addressed a mass meeting last
Klght In Washington hall In the Interests
tt organized labor.
"The laboring man want nothing beyond
Ills own rights," continued Mr. Oompers,
''but he wants that with all his heart and
oul, and will have It. We are not an an
tagonistic body, seeking to undermine or
destroy the interests of capital; we want
peaceful relations with capital at all times
and under all clrcumetancee, but we also
want fair treatment at the hands of the
capitalists and will Insist upon having It.
, la Accord with Strikers.
Mr. Oompers waa asked about the attitude
of the American Federation of Labor to
ward the present strike on the Union Pa
cific. He said:
, "It Is ona of heartiest accord. The ma
chinists, Boilermakers, carmen and all
other shopmen, who are members of the
'federation, have the fullest sympathy and
jco-operatlon of the central organization
land It will stand by them throughout the
struggle.
. "We look upon the action bf the strik
ers here as Just and right. They are
fighting for what they should hae and
are carrying on a peaceable, intelligent
.contest that indicates a profitable set
tlement' for them. The situation looks
good from our standpoint. We have no
reason whatever to feel discouraged. In
'fact, we never feel discouraged over any
thing. Defeat only gives us new Impetus
and inspiration, for we know our cause Is
a great and Just one and must eventually
i succeed. Aa I said before, organized labor
'la not a transitory thing, but a tangible,
living movement that has come to stay
and not to be swept aside Ty the powerful
opposition which its enemies may heap
upon It."
. Asked If he would Intercede . with the
officials in behalf of the Union Pacific
atrlkers while here, Mr. Oompers replied!
"Certainly not unless asked to do so,
and thus far no one haa aprpoached me
en that subject. I do not know that there
Is any oocaslon for me to take such a
step now. Things are running along very
;weii indeed."
i Able for Long; Flarbt.
President Oompers aald that the striker
.here and at other places on the Union Pa
!clflo were able and determined to wage a
long fight If necessary. "They will not
'Skulk and run to get other Jobs elsewhere.
nor will their places here be filled by other
union men from abroad," be declared, "for
aa a matter of fact every shopman in this
country has a direct' Interest In this very
trlke and not one would undermine his
, 'fellow workmen by coming here to work in
ihla place. That la not organized labor and
no one should allow himself to be deceived
Into thinking It is. Another thing that
wants to be borne in mind is that shopmen
are not plentiful over this country. There
are none of them competent who are out
of work except those who are on a strike.'
Speaking of the situation in the coal
imlnlng reglona of Pennsylvania, Mr. Oom
pera said the miners were waging a good
.fight and had hopes of winning. The sltua
,tion, ha aald, Is an aggravated one and a
atrong and determined effort would be
necessary to bring about victory. He de
'clared that every day every possible effort
is being made by the labor lntereata to' In
duce a settlement. "No stone Is left un
turned thitt might afford a solution of this
.vexing problem. But anxious aa those
miners are for a settlement, they are not
going to quit without aome very substan
tial considerations. There must be con
cessions made to them or they will not give
in."
He aald the strain of present atrlkea
while heavy, was not testing the strength
or vitality of the American Federation of
Labor, which organization is Increasing In
potency every day.
Mr. Makes Talks.
Mr. Mahon said the Interest of the street
car men are improving every day. During
the last year over $1,000,000 increases In
wages have been secured over the United
States. In Detroit alone the men have
realized 160,000 more in their pay and in
New Orleans $189,000. The conditions In
Omaha, he aald, were satisfactory and he
had no mission here of especial concern to
the railway employee.

An affecting scene occured at St. Joseph's
ospttal Sunday when Mrs. Cook of Smith
Center, Kan., and her 14-year-old daugh
ter, Ooldle, were united after a year'a
separation. About a year ago Mr. Cook
deserted his wife and family in Smith Cen
ter, end returning to that place several
days later, persuaded his daughter lo leave
er mother and go with him. Aa soon as
Mrs. Cook leerned of her bunbaod's visit
nd that be bad secured possession of their
hlld, she sent descriptions ot the two to
the various cities of the country. For al
most a year ber search was in vain. Re
cently she wrote to the Omaha police.
Detectives Heltfelt and Donohoe found the
girl with a family named Brown In the
eastern part of the city.
The father had deserted the girl several
days before and had left the city. Goldle
was sick in bed at the time the police
found ber. The police sent her to St.
Joseph's hospital, where she remained un
til Mrs. Cook arrived Sunday, and left
that night with her for their home In
Smith Center.
To the officers. Ooldle said that after ahe
left home with ber father, they went to
Iowa. There her father aecured for her a
position In a restaurant and compelled her
to work every day. ' Recently they came
to Omaha and though she was alck at the
time, her father again compelled her to
find work. She secured employment in a
restaurant on North Sixteenth- street and
the money she made went for the support
of her father and herself. During all this
time the father did no work, living on what
she made.

Senator Charles H. Dietrich arrived In the
city from Washington yesterday and was a
guest at the home of Dr. W. H. Hanchett.
He left last evening for Lincoln, where
he will stop briefly before going to his
home at Hastings. His daughter, Gertrude,
ho has been with him In Washington, will
spend the summer months at a watering
place in the Adlrondacks in the hope of
benefiting her health, which has not been
robust.
Senator Dietrich, speaking of the Irriga
tion bill, which recently became a law, said:
"Having lived In the west for so many
years I knew the Importance and practica
bility of irrigation and at once after my
election began working to bring about a
compromise between the two factions Into
which the friends of this great enterprise
were divided. One of these factions wanted
the general government to defray the ex
pense of building the reservoirs and canals
nd to have general management of all the
details of the undertaking; the other
wanted the money to be disbursed by the
states, each state to have control of the
work within Its own territory.
"In May a year ago 1 arranged for a
meeting of western senators and congress
men and submitted to them a plan which
was afterward accepted. It was. In brief,
that the general government construct the
reservoirs and canals and retain ownership
of them, but that the water be distributed
under the state laws. The irrigation bill,
which has just become a law, is drawn up
along this line and embodies virtually all
the Ideas I advanced at the meeting. It la.
said by old members ot congress who have
examined ' It that a more complete hill
never came up tor their consideration.
Probable Effect of Law.
"The effect of this irrigation legislation
is already being seen in the greatly In
creased number of people who are looking
to the west for homes Instead ot going to
Canada, as the tendency was a year ago.
It is too early yet to aay Just when and
where the first reservoirs and canals will
be built, but there Is no reason why some
thing tangible In this line ' should not be
done within the next twelve months, since
there Is, or will be, plenty of money avail
able for the purpose. The revenue for the
enterprise will be derived from the sale of
public lands and between $5,000,000 and
$6,000,000 already awaits disbursement.
'It is an Interesting fact that all eastern
senators and congressmen, without an ex
ception. Opposed this Irrigation bill at the
start, and some fought It to the end. It
is an evidence that the east is Jealous of
the west. Congressman Orosvenor eald it
was a railroad scheme, to enhance the
value of railroad land, forgetting, evl
dently, that every alternate section In
these great publio domalna belongs to the
government, and that the railroad land
could not be Improved without Improving
the government land."

UNION PACIFIC TRACKS SINK
Oollapte of Eoadbed at West End of
Mifiaouri Biver Bridge!
SURFACE GOES DOWN ABOUT THIRTY FEET
All Trains To and From Brlda-e Mast
Ran Over Burlington Tracks
Two Hundred Men Re
pairing Damage.
A cave-In of the Union Pacific roadbed
at the weet end of the company's Missouri
river bridge yesterday dlsplaoed about
14,000 cublo feet of embankment, and tem
porarily destroyed three tracks, making it
necessary for trains entering the depot
yards to pass over the freight tracks or
those of the Burlington to the south and
back Into the Union Station from the west
end.
The displacement covers an area of prob
ably 420 feet in length and thirty feet wide
and the surface of the embankment about
thirty feet. Fortunately no trains were on
the tracks at the time and consequently
no damage outside ot that done to the
trackage was felt.
The roadbed, which was built on a filling,
was composed of sand, topped with gravel,
and It seems to have almply sunk into the
earth. It Is over the old artesian well and
the acene of a similar accident four years
ago. The beginning of the depression is
about 100 feet west of the west end of the
bridge. It takes off the north side of the
embankment and extends south within a
few feet of the Burlington tracks, which
are thought, however, not to bo endangered.
The three seta of tracks were' curved and
twisted by the collapse, but in most places
the rails stayed with the ties, both going
down to the depth of thirty feet together.
Collapsed Early In Morning.
The depression was first noticeable dur
ing Sunday afternoon, but the real collapse
did not occur until some time in tho early
morning. It is thought that there is some
soapstone In the compositon of the roadbed
and that this, together with the faot that
tho bed was laid exactly over the old arte
sian well, started the cave-in, which was
helped slong by the heavy rains. There is
no great mass of earth such as might' be
looked for on the aide of the trackway, but
the tilling seems to have dropped Into the
earth, fitting into a big depression.
Within a few hours after the accident
was known a crew of about 200 men was
put to work making repairs and it is esti
mated that three or four days will be con
sumed In replacing the embankment and
laying the tracks. A steam ehovol is al
ready at work, bringing dirt from Summit.
Of course it will require some time for the
new roadbed to settle before the trains can
safely run over it. In the meantime a cut
off track which Is being thrown in will be
used by Incoming trains.
One peculiar feature of the affair Is that
ths little cabin used by the switchmen
sunk to a depth of thirty feet without being
injured in the least. It was left perfectly
intact except being lowered from Its former
location. No one was in the cabin when
the collapse came.
