THE ISSUES OF THE STRIKE
A Plain Statement from the Business Mens
Association
To reach correct conclusion of the difference now exlatlna between several
labor unions In Oititht and their employer!, represented br the Business Men ssso.
elation, the first thins neceasary ! to hava correct knowledge of the matter In Issue.
Thla la not controversy effecting rates of wasea, hours of labor or sanitary conUl
Uona surrounding employe.
THE ISSUES ARE:
Flrtt-Tha labor organisations Involved la the present controversy demand what
they call "recognition" of their unions. Tha business men concede recognition In the
sen that the laborers have a right to form unions, and. If they sea fit, to be fpre
sentcd by these unlona In negotiating with their employera. But auch right la not
.hat la meajit by the term "recognition" aa used by the unlona. They demand as a
part of "recognition" that tha employer ahall enter Intj contract to hlr and re
tain In his employment none but membere of their union. Thla demand the em
ployer resist, contending that they hava a right to employ whom tbey please, with
out discriminating In favor of or against union or nonunion labor The employers
contend that thla right of election on their part la essential to their control of their
own business, and that the making of tha contracts demanded would amount to a
conspiracy entered Into by tha employera to deny the nonunion workman either ths
right or the opportunity to earn a living by hla calling.
Second The unions Insist upon the light at such times and for such reasons as
they, and they alone, shall deem fit, to organic and maintain systematlo boycotts In
which their employers must become parties, participating with them. That Is, that
ths employe shall havs not only the right to say that be will not deal or trad with
any person who Is declared unfair, but that his employer must suspend all business
relations with such person, without having any vclce in determining the Justice of
tha complaint against the boycotted party. Thla demand tha .Justness Men'a associa
tion resists, contending that every merchant, manufacturer or other employer sha'.l
hve tha right to continue his business relations with his customers without regard
to whether aomd union, of which he la not a member and In which he has no vote,
shall decide that the customer Is deserving of social cr business ostracism.
Third The labor unions Involved In thl controversy Insist upon the right to In
stitute and maintain what are known as sympathetic strikes, by and through which
all of the employes of any employer, without having nny grievance of their own, or
any complaint to make against their employer, may, at their will, under a decision
arrived at without his participation, bring all of hla bualnesa to a standstill because
those employed by some other party, or even in some other line of work, have seen
fit to withdraw from their employment. This demand the Business Men'a association
resists, contending that no employer ought to be subject to an arbitrary suspension
of his buslneaa, that no quarrel or dissatisfaction existing betweer him and his em
ployes, simply because there is dissatisfaction In some other line of employment or
with some other employer.
These are tha Issues Involved In tha present labor disturbance, and upon tha Jus
tiee of the positions of tha contending parties In these essential respects the publio
is asked to decide. BUSINESS MEN'S ASSOCIATION.

Time for Opening: Their
risers.
Legal propositions were rained at last
night's meeting of the Business Men's as
sociation at Schlits hall. The first waa the
announcement by T. J. Mahoney, as on
of tha counsel for the association, that
those who recently upset wagons driven by
nonunlonist and committed other similar
acts of violence will be prosecuted to th
full extent of th law, not as a part of tha
strike maneuvers, but as an action in
punishment for violation of th law.
The other proposition was the announce
ment that an old city ordinance has been
discovered which makes it a misdemeanor
to distribute on tha streets any cards, cir
culars or posters In th nature of the
"unfair"' carda which hava been distributed
near restaurants by the union pickets. This
ordinance the association will expect City
Prosecutor B. F. Thomas to use as a pre
ventstlve of a longer continuance of th
custom, there being a small fine Imposed
by tha ordinance for violation of its pro
visions. The Central Labor union's plan for arbi
tration was mentioned, but was not given
any lengthy consideration, beceuse, the
press committee explains, the association
has received from the central union neither
a written communication nor a committee
formally presenting the proposition.
Borne Easiness Announcements.
F. J. Kimball, representing the laundry
men, announced at this meeting that all
steam laundries will open next Monday
morning with Independent crews. He said
further that while all the laundries have
a considerable number ot employes wno
will be on hand, others can be - used and
111 be hired without being asked any
questions as to whether they are or are
not affiliated with a union.
Tolf Hansen of the Calumet and John
Halplne of the One Minute stated that they
will open their restaurants Monday or
Tuesday next with Independent crews.
Walters say that the two proprietors yes
terday spoke to strikers formerly In their
employ. Inviting them to withdraw their
union cards and come to work, with a
promise that they should have all present
demands as to wages and hours granted.
None accepted the Invitation, it is said.
Walter Jardine of the Merchants' Ex
press and Transfer company reported that
whereas he had started with only seven
wagons a few days ago, he had sixty-five
working Saturday and fully expects to have
twenty-five more going Monday, bringing
his total almost up the normal number.
He said also that he has had several ap
plications from old employes whtf had
withdrawn their cards from their union,
and that all is going smoothly In his A
partment,
Several comments on the Omaha strike
by papers of other cities were read, and F.
H. Gaines, one of the association' attor
neys, talked of th resemblance which he
considers exists between present conditions
and Ah condition of ante-bellum slavery,
but stated he believes all will work out
well In th end.
What the Walter Say.
President Wade and Business Agent Hart
of the Waiters" union learned yesterday
afternoon of the digging up of the old
ordinance makinc it a misdemeanor to
distribute the cards declaring houses un
fair, and held a consultation with Chief
Donahue.
"The chief told us," said President Wade
"that we must not distribute cards of this
nature, but that we may prepare and cir
culate cards stating what houses are fair
and setting forth our position. We ceased
some time ago to use the skull and cross
bones on the cards, and I haven't any par
tlcular objection to doing away with tha
word unfair, but whether or not we have
to, it seems to us to be an open question
for I recall a supreme court case in which
our union's present attorney, , John O.
Telser, established a union's right to dls
tribute such cards If It sees fit, if I re
member the case correctly. Mr. Hart and
I will see Mr. Telser tomorrow and until
then we prefer not to say what we will do.
If he Informs us that my recollection of
the supreme court ruling Is corncct, and
that therefor the city ordinance Is void
because conflicting with a state law, we
will be free to do as we please. If he in
forms us otherwise, we shall simply abide
by his counsel."

PITTSBURG. May 1S.-A1I business was
suspended at Homestead today and the
town took a holiday In honor or tne aeai
ration of C. M. Schwab free Industrial
school and the formal opening of the In
stitution built and to be maintained by the
president of the steel corporation. That th
teaidents appreciated to tne runcst es
tent the day's event was proved by the
elaborate decorations. During ths morning
Mr. Schwab and his guests sat down to a
lunch prepared by the pupils of th domea
tlo science department as their tribute ta
Mr Schwabs generosity.
Preceding the ceremonies at th actios
there waa a parade. Tha uniformed troopr

At 1 o'clock the dedication of the new
building took place. The exercise werl
carried out on a platform In front of th
school After the Invocation by Rev.
N. D. Hynson, Mr. Schwab was Introduced
and In a brief address formally presented
the building and equipment to th borough
Mr. Schwab spoke in part as follow)
I doubt If any man or woman here can
appreciate how deeply this demonstration
aws Into my heart, or wnat a lasting rm
predion It will make. I want no prouder
epitaph than to have It truly said that
"the working people with whom he worked
loved and honored him." I never say. "the
man who worked for me," the men of
Homestead alwnya worked with me. What
an anewer to theorists who said thst men
snd employers are not In sympsthy. Home-
ira nas seen troubles in tnis respect.
Thank God they are being fast forgotten,
and It was my proud prlvl.ege eleven years
ago to contribute much toward bringing
about that happy relation which now ex
ists, and I hope alwavs will exist.
tne object of this school Is to tesch that
work to boy and girl la ennobling; to be
aoie to no nothing Is disgraceful. The
United States Is lo be the areat Industrial
ration ot the world, and It Is a proud posi

Hopes to Fly in Reality.

LONDON, May 16. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) T. T. Hugh
Bastln of Brixton has Invented a mechan
ical bird balloon to compete at the St.
Louis exposition for the airship prise.
The wings can be controlled separately and
one man, by working one lever, it Is as
serted, can regulate every requisite move
ment of soaring, steering, flying, hovering
and descending. The motive power is sup
plied by a petroleum engine, and propul
sion la achieved by air resistance to the
beating of the wings.
This "bird" Is cylinderlcal and has a
pointed nose and tall. All the weight Is
below the wings, thus maintaining Its
equilibrium. When the wings are set beat
ing the model needs two men to hold it
back. Mr. Bastin expects to attain a speed
of ISO miles an hour with a full-sized bird.

KRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAIN, Msy W.
(New York World Cablegram Special Tele

the ablest and most intellectual, if not the
ablest newspaper in Germany, contained
this morning the following telegram from
New York:
"At the opening of the exposition at St
Louis the people did not exactly cover
themselves with glory. The ceremonies
had from beginning to end a bad country
smell. The foreign diplomats who were
there have swirn never to set foot again
in St. Louis. It is well known that the
German, Russian and English ambassadors
suddenly had pressing engagements when
the opening approached. Their not going
is perhaps connected with the fact that the
French and Spanish ambassadors were on
the program' for speeches; at least some
people think ao.
The accommodations, and especially the
table, were above all unsatisfactory to the
diplomats. When they went to luncheon on
the first day they found somebody already
eating at the same table."

UNAUTHORIZED PROGRAM THROWN OVER
Yoslte Commission Makes Plans for

YOSEMITE, Cal., May ll-Presldent
Roosevelt has not been heard from today.
Ha is supposed to have been near Glacier
Point this morning, but there was no
word from him to Secretary Loeb when his
party reached the Sentinel hotel this after
noon. Snow fell today in the mountains
around the district where the president is
supposed to be and the weather became
quite cold. Should the weather become too
cold tonight for outdoor camping there
are a number of shanties located in differ
ent parts of the mountains In which the
president could spend the night comforta
bly.
Notwithstanding the fact that the presi
dent, before leaving Washington, out
lined the program he was to follow during
bis stay in the Tosemlte, the Yoslte com
mission adopted another program with
out consulting , him. Thla latter program
provided for fireworks, the Bring of dyna
mite to produce loud echoes and the par
ticipation by the president in some sort
of a publio ceremony. Without the presi
dent's knowledge this program waa cir
culated broadcast and people came Into
Yosemite hundreds of miles away to aee
him. When they found that he was not
to be there their disappointment was great.
The president was not told of thla pro
posed change until yesterday, and even
then he waa not told that people were
coming from such long distances to see
him. Aa he waa tired out, as the result
of the hospitality of San Francisco, he de
cided that he would adhere to his original
plan and spend the next few days in se
clusion. President Blades Crowds.
Shortly after noon the presidential party,
occupying four stages, entered the Yosemite
valley. The president himself did not accom
pany the party. He eluded the large crowd
awaiting him in the valley by taking tha
trail with a few membere of hla party from
Chlnaqua, thirteen mllea from here. The
colored troopers of the Ninth cavalry broke
the trail 'through the snow, which waa quite
deep In place. The remainder of the party,
numbering twenty-four, took horses and
mules at the foot of the trail, at Glacier
Point, one 'mile below the Sentinel hotel.
In accordance with the president's deslr
to enjoy hla outing in private, hla move
ment were jealously guarded by all offi
cials. Preparations had been made for the presi
dent to stay at Jorgensen'a atudlo. In the
center of the valley, and the crowds were
greatly surprised and disappointed when
the president did not appear. All the hotels
and upbllc camps are crowded to over
flowing. The trail which the president will
travel Is closed to the public.
At noon Governor Pardee and President
Wheeler of the University of California ar
rived at the Sentinel hotel.
