F. of L~and with all national trade unions to iurther the movement, and that the request would be made to all wor! throughout the country to hold mass m respective localities on May 1 next to di clare their determination to enforce the eight-hour work day as soon as practical before, but certainly on A prominent membs American Federation of Labor, in speaking yesterday to a Star reporter about the action of the advisory board, said: “The agitation for the reduction of the hours of labor commencing at the dawn of the nineteenth century was largely the in- spiring cause of the organization ef labor in the trade untons, and every subsequent agitation of this question has resulted in the establishment ef new unions and an increase in the membership and funds cf the old uttions. “The trade unions are founded upon the basic principle of the eight-hour phi ophy. It is a class movement. an s meet and fra- ternize. movement of iumanity. yvomen toil verprises er hours is the slogan of iheir advancement. “The insti ct of the wage worke as is manifest in the history of the movement. shows-that their thstinct of proteciion and varcement were wiser than the theorics relitical “ éccnomists. Less hours of werk had proved ta be the most effective method of increasing the purchasing power of a day’s work. * “The philosophy or law of the eight-hour movement cannot be too often repeated. The laborers having lost the power to sell the products of their labors have become wage slaves, because they are compelled to scll their labor on time. The withhold- ing of time from the market of labor in- creases the value of each hour sold; dis tributes the hours ef work to those Wwith- ot work; increases the wages or purchas- ing power of the,day’s work through the natural laws that govern the distribution of wealth; hours thus released from toil furnish the opportunity of leisure, enhance the value of the man educated’ through leisvre; the moral forces thus quickened into Yew activities will thus abolish thase vices and crime equitable distribu portunity, Th consequent upon the in- of wealth and op- incre.zé in purchasing power di- hes. the profits of labor, thus gra nd scientifically bringing the labore up to the power of a free contracting part and finally restore him to the opportunity to-sell the product.of hjs labor and become a free man. “The eighi-hcur phi men in the conditicr and lifts the class of vage conditiors, and thus inaugurates, through peaceful methods, the new era of manhood and womanhood emancipated from economic slavery.” The organization commitice of the Cen- tral Labor Union and Building Trades Ccuncil held a meeting yesterday afternoon at Electrical Workers’ Hall, No. 628 Louis ana avenue, for the purpose of taking steps to form a federal labor union, the purpose of which has flerady been fully explained in The Star. President. Milford Spohn of the Central Labor Unicn was called to the chair, the chairman, Mr. Joseph Patterson, being absent. After the consideration of various mat- ters. those present voted to connect them- selves with the proposed body, and will Meet rext Sunday at the same place to effect a permanent organization. Messrs. William Silver, Frank Hall and Richard Lannis were appointed a committee to make all necessary arrangements for a mass meeting in the interest of organized labor Tuesday evening of next week. The regular meeting of the Printing Pressmen’s Union was held Saturday even- ing at Costello's Hall. President Emtt Peterson occupied the chair. The only bus- iness transacted other than the considera- tion of routine matters was the election of Messrs. Joseph Birmingham and McKinnon as delegates to the annual convention of the International Printing Pressmen’s Union, which meets next June at Detroit. es MISS WARD'S FUNERAL, ssophy Geals with that surround them fe workers out of She Died at the ergency Saturday Night. The remains of Miss Annie V. Ward, who died at the Emergency Hospital Sat- urday night. from the effects of injuries received about two hours before by the explosion of a can of gasoline, were buried this afternoon in Glenwood cemetery. The services were conducted at the home of the sister of the deceased, Mrs. Kerns, 308 E-street northwest, by Rev. Dr. S. H. Greene, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church, of which the-deceased had heen a member for a long. time. The circumstances connected with the a6@ affair were particularly distressing. Miss Ward, ‘who was employed at the bu- reau of engraving and printing and was .the.principal support of her mother and widowed sister, had spent an unusually pleasant. .evening with them. About 7 o'clock Miss Ward started to go down the \j-cellar, and Jt being dark, she lighted a match, so as to sce the way. “tfortcnately a can filled with gasoline had been carelessly left on the landing of the cellar: MisseWard made a misstep, tel her to drop the match in the can gasoline, ‘Which at once exploded. Miss Ward was immediately enveloped in the blaze. With fare presence of mind she threw her. ‘athing over her head, evident- ly with the idea of keeping from inhaling "the; ames, but her efforts were unav: as were also attempts of the other embers "of the family to reach her. Finally, however, Officer Herbert,” who rome od screams of the girl, rushed into and placing a heavy overcoat, hich “he? found. in the hallway, Severidge’s, 1215 oth Rich and InexpensiveGifts For Easter.
