GETTING DOWN Vo WORK.
The Federation of Labor Transacts Much
Business During the Day’s Session.
New York, Dec. 12.—When the
fourth day’s session of the fifteenth an
nual convention of the American Feder
eration of Labor opened, not over 50
delegates were present. Several reports
were presented. The secretary read a
■ communication from the trade and labor
assembly of Chicago, saying that the
lack of harmony among the trades
unions of Chicago was due to the inter
ference of lawyers and others, who
sought to make capatal and fat fees out
of the labor movement, and requesting
that the incoming executive council of
the federation appoint a committee to
establish the labor movement in Chicago
upon a sound basis. The letter was re
referred to a special committee.
Chairman Kilipitzky of the rules
committee, reported on a resolution ap
proving of the bill of the barbers’ Sun
day closing law in this state and Illi
nois, and asked the federation to aid in
extending the law in other states. It
was adopted.
A communication from the typeset
ting machine engineers, which asked
for shorter work hours, caused some
comment. The rules committee decid
ed to have the matter settled by the
convention. It was claimed that this
body of men should come under the
head of the Typographical union or the
Machinists union. There is to be a con
ference of the various delegates inter
ested in these matters at night, and de
cision was deferred until after that
time.
A communication was read from
■ George Francis Train, who desired to
address the convention. Upon motion
of Delegate Pomeroy of Chicago his
affer was accepted and Mr. Train will
be notified of the time he will be ex
pected.
F. L. Sargent, chief of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen, was call
ed upon for a speech, which he made.
He said he hoped that the day would
come when all classes of workmen
would be united in one body.
. William F. Durflinger of the Typo
graphical union No. 6, who had been
appointed mediator between Hadkett,
Carhart & Co. and the United Garment
Worker's of America, reported that his
efforts in that direction had been suc
cessful.
Eltmeed Pomeroy addressed the con
vention. While arguing that the feder
ation could not be made a political or
ganization, he said its members should,
however, study politics that they might
take intelligent action on matters that
concerned them. The government of
this country today, he said, is neithei
republican nor democratic, but pluto
cratic. Labor could not greatly remedy
abuses because corporations bar the way.
Direct legiflaiion would bring out the
latent intelligence and strength of the
people and then the people would be ?•?-
sponsible for their own progress and for .
the burdening of free institutions.
Samuel Gompers submitted a lengthy
report of the visit of himself and Vice
President McGuire to the British trades
council convention at Cardiff, Wales,
lust September.

In presenting to the public our “Patent” Burial Vault, we invite thorough in
vestigation as to its merits. There is no question as to the strength and durability
of vitrified brick. With the grave arch built of these it is impossible for it to crush
with the weight of earth that must be put upon it when the dead are buried.
These brick being impervious to water, it is impossible for a drop to penetrate
the grave. Aside from that fact they are thoroughly incased ith concrete, which
effectually prevents dampness coming in contact Avith the brick.
We not only claim the only perfect vault now in use, but at one-half the price
usually charged. It is - therefore in reach of the poor, as well as the rich, to prop
erly bury their dead and to feel they are as if they were as perfectly entombed as if
they -were in thtJ pyramids of Egypt;
There is,nothing.else so deeply ■ interesting to the living as the disposal of the
loved and lost. So there is nothing else so distinctive of the condition and charac
ter of a people as the method in which they treat their dead. He is a benefactor
indeed who seeks to provide a perfect burial case for the dead.
