PRESENT ORDINANCE UNREASONABLE
Talk of Changing; It and Then Korc
Ing the Roads to Comply with
Its Provisions In Thickly
Settled Portions.
At Its meeting next Monday the city
council will be naked to take some stcpa
looking towards regulating the speed of
railway trains through the city. Chief of
Police Tlbblts notified Mayor Morgan yes
terday that recently several complaints
had been made to Mm of the speed with
which the Great Western ran Its trains'
on South avenue and through tho city to
Main street. Mayor Morgan stated he had
also received several complaints with ref
erence to thn fast running of the Burling
ton's mall train on Tenth avenue across
Main, Sixth, Seventh and other Intersect
ing streets.
The mayor and chief of police, In view
of thfso complaints, conferred with tho
city attorney to ascertain the city's powers
and rights In the matter, and It Is likely
that an amended ordinance dealing with
speed of rallrond trains through the city
will be Introduced at the meeting of the
city council next Monday.
The existing ordlnanco governing the
matter, which was passed In 1WW, pro
vides that "Whenever an engineer, con
ductor or other employe of any railroad
company shall run any locomotive with
or without cars attached, or any hand
car, at n speed exceeding four miles an
hour he shall be deemed guilty of a mis
demeanor, and on conviction thereof shall
be punished by a flno of not less than 13
nor more than $o0 for each offense."
To restrict the speed of trains within
the city limits to four miles an hour as
provided by the ordinance Mayor Morgan
said yesterday would work a hardship on
th railroads and would bo unnecessary.
He said that he believed that a speed not
exceeding elgrht or ten miles an hour should
bo permitted on traveled streets and a
speed not exceeding fifteen miles an hour
on outlvlng streets.
Under tha state law cities are-given the
right to pass ordinances regulating thn
speed of trains within city ,'lmlts, pro
vided such regulation Is Reasonable. The
existing ordinance, Mair Morgan said
yesterday, he believed would be deemed
unreasonable If the matter was taken Into
the courts, and for this reason he would
suggest that the city council take some
action In the matter and the railroads
be required to run their train at a safe
speed through the crowded portions of the
city,
Boy Held tu He Menace.
Andrew Walker, a 16-year-old lad, who
since he waa 4 years of age has been sub
Ject to epileptic fits, was brought before
th Commissioners for the litkitne yester
day on complaint of Mr. and Mrs. I.. M.
Shubert. It was claimed that young Walker
when suffering from attacks of vpllpsey
attacks other children in the neighborhood
and that It waa not safe for him to be at
large. As the evidence showed that the boy
was a proper candidate for the P hool for
Feebl Minded Children at Glrnwood. and
not for th tntan asylum, the board dls
charged htm, against the vehement pre
teats of Mr. and Mrs. Shubert. Th boy's
father assured the commissioners that he
would send him to tho Institution at O'.en-
wood.

PUN TO INCREASE WORK DAY
Iowa City Kmployers Orgnnlie Wo
clety to Co-opernte with Parry's
National I.onane.
IOWA CITY. Ia.. March 1. (Special.)
The contractors, manufacturers and busi
ness men of the city have perfected an or
ganization for protection nalnst the organ
ized labor of this place, t.'nlons havo only
been Introduced In Iowa City within the
last two years. At that time the first trade
to be organized with the painters, and they
have retained their strength ever since. As
a result of this organisation the wages of
the union painters have risen 25 per cent.
Their example was quickly followed by all
the rest of the trades In turn, until every
thing is union. Many of the dotails are
kept a secret until the complete union can
be .effected and many of the business men
refuse to allow their names to be given as
yet.
The president of the Kmployera' Protec
tive association, as It Is called, Is Louis
Lyons, prominently connected with the
Puritan Manufacturing company of this
city. His firm Is one of the largest em
ployers of labor in the city, all of whom
are members of the Labor league of the
city. The vice presidents are Frank Frlda
and J. W. Helzner. Mr. Frlda Is a partner
In the firm of Sheets & Frlda. During the
building season they employ about 100 men.
Tho secretary Is Albert Wlckam and the
chairman of the managing board Is William
Horlban. Mr. Horlban stated that they
would make a scale of wages and they
would stick to It If It cost a hundred strikes.
The present scale of wages is as high as Is
paid anywhere In Iowa and the men have
a nine-hour day. Mr. Horlban states that
the wages are not going to be lowered, but
that the men would have to work ten hours
for the same scale that they are paid now.
This means a cut In wages of about 10
per cent.
The adoption of the second clauso means
the establishment of a black list, though
none of the men who are connected with
the new movement would say so openly.
lien the incMlon was put i. tNm thry
smiled and said to wait until Ai iil 1.
The closed shi p Is a thitm that the uiiio'i
cf the city hive fought fot sime their
birth. Lnst summer thry hail It nhsoliit'iy.
Not n shovelful of dirt was turned by a
nonunion mnn In the city. Snld .Mr. Horl
ban last nlpt:
This conduct has lost to the conn n t "i s
alone over $n,i worth of woik. Ii'lle
the harm that It did the city. What ve
pre asking for Is to be the boss of inr.1 ov. n
)ol.s. We are going to establish a scn'e c f
wage here thii summer will, h will ki Into
cfTTt In April and we are B'ini; to main
tain them If their Is net a dollar s worth of
work done In the city. We have stood ail
that we can from tin 111 without bintf
f 1 uvod out of business, and we think tli.it
we have about leached the limit of
patience. It lias become a question appar
ently of their llf- or ours, and we don't
want to be the under iIor.
We can afford to go through the entire
summer and not do a dollars worth of
work. The labor of the city cannot do so.
They have got to work, and we are the men
that they have got to work for. That Is
the Kiisltion that we are going to assume
and thev can make the most of it. An
other thing that is the keynote of our or
ganization Is the open shop We are going
to reserve the right to employ whom we
chouse, regardless cf what the unions say
or do.
I don't believe that thev am going fn let
this thing go to tho extreme where they
are going nut on it strike for any length of
time. We rather look for trouble when the
wage scale goes Into effect, but when they
understand that they will have to work for
that or nothing at aJI I believe that they
will quickly come to terms.
The Fmployers' Protective association will
Join D. M. Parry's National Fmployers'
association before Its wago scale goes Into
effect. Thus they will have not only their
own backing, but the support of the na
tional organization as well. This will mean
a great deal to them In the fight that Is to
come, for It Is believed that labor will not
give up tamely.
