Convinced that the health and lives of working women in New York are not | properly safeguarded, Woman's | ‘Trade Union League, with headquarters at No, 43 Kast Twenty-second street, has organized an ins; jon system, to be carried on by the working women themselves, to show what are the actual conditions in the factories of this city. Of the four hundred nd women and employed in metropolitan manufacturing establishments, fifty thousand are members of the League. ‘The work of Investigation and publicity is in the hands of Miss Ida Rawh, chatr- man of the legislative committee, and toxlay she gave an outline of It to an Evening World reporter, “Spurred by the Newark fire, in which #0 many of our sister workers Jost their the lives," said Mies Rauh, “our league de- elded at its last meeting to undertake thig social service. Leaflets have been sent to our members, giving a catalogue of the laws ling fire escapes, ights, sanitation, locked doors and other Important matters, with a request to make detalled comparisons with the conditions found in the factories and report at an early date, Calls Laws a Farce, “Tt ts yet too e: for the reports to come in, and we have no partioulars at this time. But some general mat- ter to whi public attention ought to} be called.” Then she brought forth a volume of the General Laws of the State, turned to chapter 2%, entitled “Labor Law," and remarked, “Now I am going to read you some humorous literature” Here it ts: Section 9—All doons leading tn or to any such factory shall be #0 con- atructed to open outwardly here as WHERE PRACTICABLE.

No Definite Safeguards Ordered, “An absolutely conclusive oondemna- tion of the present law as to fire- eséapes,” went on Miss Rauh, “is the fact that no ratio ts specified between the number of employees and the num- ber of fire-escapes, Such an omission leaves the way open for the corruptton, directly or indirectly, of the fire inspec. tori even if the corps of only sixty officials for the entire State wrre quate, which ft fs not.

The deer lost both the race and Its life. Up the river and back again and around an Isla: the hunters went until the animal was killed with a polo club by Myron Smith and Lyle Moore, Moore and Smith, two of the fastest siaters in town, saw the deer cro: far above them, He two-thirds of the way across. young men went in pursuit. When they were close upon the animal he turned up the river, Deer and men} sped along for two miles. People on the batiks saw the chase and notified others in the village. All the skates that could ‘ve found were pressed into service. —_— U. S. NAVAL OFFICERS ARRESTED IN PARIS. Had Dispute. With Cabby Police Took a Hand—Re- leased With Apology.

WASHINGTON, Dec, &—Currency re form, extension of the scope of the na- tional banking laws in the event of no immediate general change of the mone. tary system, civil service retirements, a customs service free from “practical” politics, businesslike methods in the dally transactions of the Government and a general abolition of red tape wherever it clogs the wheels of the Government's business, among the recommendations contained in the nual report of Franklin MacVeagh, Sec- retary of the Treasury, presented to Congress to-day, | ‘The expenses cf government in the | fiscal year 1912, for which this session of Congress is asked to appropriate, are | estimated at $630,404,013.12. The estimated expenditures on the Panama Canal are Biven a $56,920,847.69, making a total of $687,414,800.81, The estimates, if carried out, represent net savings of about $18,000,000 In the executlv® departments as compared with the appropriations for the current fiscal year, Receipts for 1912, Secretary MacVeagh estimates, will be $680,000,000, which | would leave an ordinary surplus of around $50,000,000. If the Treasury should continue to pay for the Panama Canal out of the cash drawer, as at) Present, such a surplus would be turned to a defictt of $7,414,300.81. Secretary MacVeagh expresses the | hope that the monetary question will come into Congress detached from sec- tional or political consideration. | “Our system can falrly be called a| panic breeding system,” hes “whereas, every other great national banking and currency system ‘s panic | preventing.
