10" i PLEMBERS ARE GETTING BUSY 4prtl af OfBoori and Gommlttses Oom Bsfors ths Convention. SOME RADICAL REFORMS ARE PROPOSED - ThaaiM Flynn a' Omih Is Asked 4o Stand for the Presidency- of the Association, t Keeps Oat. . Yesterday momtns's teuton of the United Association of Plumbers, Gas and Steam fitters and "team Fitters' Helpers was at tended by more than 100 delegates and was jtlven over to the reading of the reports of the president, the secretary-treasurer and the auditing committee, which reports were referred to committees to be re ported back later for final action. Some radical changes were recommended and will have to be given considerable thought before decided upon. - In the afternoon the report of the nation allzatlon committee selected at Buffalo a 7ar ago was read. The plan recom mended Is almost a revolution in the association's transactions. Auxiliary Sec retarr-Treasurer Thomas Burke, once an Omahaa, it on the committee and will be oae of the most ardent champions of the new plan. He has traveled extensively in the United States and in Europe and mem bers say that they expect his talk to be one of especial interest, replete with statistical Information. Fly mm Snaaested for President. Another Omahan is figuring prominently flaw in an executive way. Thomas Flynn, present jail custodian, could have the presi dency of the association, judging from talk about the hotel, but cannot accept because of hit present duties at the Jail. He was elected first vice president two years ago and fifth vice president a year ago. Mon- ' day commltteei called on him to urge him to enter the race as a candidate for the chair, but he had to decline. New Tork wat with him and he had other delegations which were against Mm last year, when he was defeated for the office by only two Totes. At Monday afternoon's meeting, after the mayor had spoken, Mr. Flynn was called on and for five minutes sprayed the audience with a superior quality of "Jolly." The election of officers probably will oc cur Friday. President Merrick's Snsraestions. . In bit address President Merrick taid: At the twelfth convention, held In Buf falo, a committee on nationalisation was appointed and empowered to present a complete beneficial system, based on the equalisation plan and adapted to the needs of our rapidly growing organization. I derlre to call your attention to the report of this committee, embodying the platform and system which will be presented to you .for your most earnest and careful con sideration. The rapid and large growth of our association in recent years demon strates that w have long ego outgrown the present system and that we should adopt a complete constitution in line with the foremost of International unions. During the past year gratifying progress has been made by a large number of our locals eliminating the helper end the es tablishment of a proper apprentice system. Ti. ou r.rk ooosmpllshcd should be given encouragement. We find that our trade as well as others has been rapidly branching out Into hith erto unknown fields, so I would recom mend that a special committee of five be appointed to present proper rules govern ing trade jurisdiction for the considera tion of this convention. General Organiser William J. Spencer, In his report said: "The year has been pro lino In strikes and industrial turmoil, but It must be aaid to the credit of the gen eral labor movement that more successes have been recorded this year than have been secured during any other known per iod in the history of the labor movement" Spencer comet out flatly on the matter bf appeals for aid. He said: Soeneer on' Appeals for Aid. The frequency with which appeals for aid are being circulated throughout this coun try is a subject worthy of consideration at this convention. Undoubtedly the great majority of those appeals represent a worthy cause and are only sent out as a last resort, in order to properly finance the dlatresned local during the period of the ex isting trouble. Nevertheless there are many locals that take advantage of the generos ity of sister unions when there is scarcely occasion for an appeal. It would appear as though the time had come when some restriction should be thrown around this means of rendering financial aid, for an Increasing number of appeals is bound to breed general discon tent In time and there Is already sign of discontent on that score. It should be our purpose, too, to minimise the number of strikes to the relative pro portion of our financial and moral strength, thus Insuring ourselves against loss in any f our ventures and steadily If slowly rais ing the standard of our trades. It is my opinion' that the executive board should be Instructed to sanction no strike unless the conditions in the district of the other locals are correspondingly equal to those of the local that Intends to present additional demands. By far the better way would be to repose the power to order a strike In the hahds of the board or other authority, so that the Tf."?Mi h0V" and other conditions of the adjoining locals could be made to corre spond as near as possible with one an ? 'L.JF noin- "like could be sanc tioned that would be out of all accord with the general prevailing conditions in the oliclted? U"trtct where "ich approval Is Mast ria-ht Injunction Abuses. Whenever we hear of a strike of any proportion today we may look for a con sequent resort to the courts by the em ployers for an Injunction, or, to strip it of ltJ1"r.Bhn"' a modern restraining order. T"JboJr """Y'ment will be called upon to light the privilege of the employer to Use the courts to protect the scab snd t defeat the union man before Ion Th. sue must be met some time, for we are ly living under a veritable form of government by Injunction, and I urgently recommend that the delegates to the next convention of the Federation of Labor be Instructed to use every means that ran be employed to have that body fight the In junction to the highest court of the land -J!Jr.iloom re In a flourishing condition and a gratifying Improvement ha" shown Itself throughout the entire country In our trades.

Tllden. secretary-treasurer, made m report which Included the following show ing: On June 10, which Is ths end of our fiscal year, we had 14. 7w members, an In crease over last year of 2.SB7 members.

This building It to he of brick tnd will entail an expenditure of tevertl thousand dollars. President Miller of the board says that the addition may be built for $6,000. This statement does not coin cide with the ettlmatet of archltecte who were requested to give offhand estimates. It la figured that the four rooms will cost not less than $8,000, and then there will be the furnishings. These will amount to not less than $2,000 more, making the total cost $10,000. Only a year ago Superintendent McLean reported to the board that with the build ing of the Whittler school, across the Bur lington tracks, there would not be any nel of any addition to the Lowell school. The membert of the board, however, seem to elffer from the riewe of the tuperintendent tnd have gone ahead and Instructed the secretary to advertise for bids. Some lay that the tchool census rerenMv taken does not warrant the addition of any rooms to the Lowell tchool, and It may be that the board may And It to Hi advantage to refute all bldt when the time comet. With the rooms now under construction it is asserted by certain members of the board that there will be ample room for all pu pllt without going to the exDensa of build ing a $10,000 addition to the Lowell tchool. City Hall Rumors. ' Late yesterday afternoon it wat talked about the' city hall that membert of the Taxpayer!' league had selected a man for the position of street foreman.

All that teems to be wanted by the mayor and the members of the league Is a man who is thoroughly competent to handle the street force and will not be antagonised by the labor uniont of South Omaha. To Prevent Accidents. Yesterday the Cudahy company and the Omaha Packing company completed the erection of an eight-foot fence at the east ern terminal of their yards. For years past employes of the companies have been using the railroad tracks instead of going to work through the usual route and the fences. It It taid, will tend in a great meas ure to prevent accidents. Fences have also teen built about the Armour railroad yards ror tne same purpose New Sanitary Rules. Inspector Jones and his force of men were at work yesterday putting up signs regard ing the dumping of garbage.

Assuming that everyone of the 641 State banki used -up the legal amount allowed for building, ground and fixtures, it would still leave them $6,146,649 loanable funds, and county after county falls to account for any at all. To cover every contingency of double taxation, let us deduct from the $23,646,095 capital and surplut of hanks one-third for possible real estate holding, and there Is a balance of $16,097, 397, money of bankers and broken subject to tax. In regard to the item of credit! of bankera and brokers, the fact that the $38,092,430 loaned by National banks cannot he loaned on real estate or chattel mortgages makes It naturally belong to this form of credit, it being loaned either oa collateral or Joint paper. Of the $24,288,884 loaned by state and private banki. It la no more than fair to p returns that one-half ct toll amourt tt loaned on Joint paper or on notes with collateral attached and not on mortgages, leaving $12,144,442 bank credits In thlt class of loaaa to be considered. Thus tt appears that there are $48,336,873 of bank ersdttt la the State of Nebraska . Regarding the stocks and bonds which have been returned for taxation,, there la no way of determining what Is meast by the returns. The banks of Omaha alone report to hank authorities that they hold the sum of $3,060,400 la bonds and ttockt, but In this matter In case these bonds are government bonds or have been Issued by compsnles owning property In the Stats of Ne hraska, which Is already taxed. It would not be proper to tax them again. However, It would appear that If there were any stocks and bends In tho state, they esrtalsly should amount to much more than $96,676. The foregoing figures show great prosperity, and material wealth and It Is confusing to note ths amount returned for taxation la tho State Auditor's report. Ths Auditor's report for 1900 gaw ths following figures as the amount reported for taxation by ths banking- interests of ths whole state: Moneys of hankers aad brokers t. $677,630 Credits of bankers and brokers 367,091 Bonds, stocks and warrants .. ....... ...... 96,676 While this Is a remarkable showing, (hs localisation of these credits is amusing. Otoe county reports $68,(74 moneys of bankers and brokers, while Doi-glaa county returns but $9,225, and Lancaster county but $13,648. It would thus appear that Ne braska City is the basking center of tho stato, according to ths amount returned for taxation, , . Ths next lteni is fully as rtdtcelous when it la discovered that Wayne county i sported $37,746 as ths credits of hankers and brokers, while Douglas county reported hut $4,6$3 sad Lancaster hut $3,638. In tho ownership of beads snd ei sad warrants we tnd Saunders county leads with $1107, while Douglas reported $7t$ snd Lancaster $750. i Ths returns of banks f'r taxation confirms tbo ftgurs glvea oa returns of asrsocal property la Us strta, L s., about 4 per cent.
