A peculiar case of cspeciailctereit.tothe coal reioijs was decided by the Supreme t.ottrt ou llieL'.iil int. it lias been the custom for workmen to anticipate their wages and obtain credit by Issuing to a merchant a power of attorney lo collect wages due at a future .time, leaving a blank for the nane, of tlio employer, the blank to be filled by the merchant at a future date. In a test case bctw!ecn James Wood- ring and the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com pany, the Court below decided that lo hold such an assignment valid would be to open the door to Improvidence and profusion on the part of t,he assignor, an.). Id the end to utter aliti liopclcss poverty! The Court thought It equivalent to a man's selling himself Into slavery, and lj!a'tt the danger to society frotii such a condition of things 1 1 ; " t . woiiiu ue grave anu alarming, in mat case, an assignment was declared Illegal, and it was held that the company must pay Wood- ring his wages, although they had already been paid to the storekeeper tti.jWhom he had given an assignment. In aflirmlngthe judgment of the Common Pleas Court of orthampllun county the Supremo Court says: "1 he attempt was to assign that which had no existence, either substantial or incipient. There was no foundation of contract on which an Indebtedness might arise. It was lhc,meio possibility of a sub sequent acquisition of property. This Is too vague and uncertain. It cannot be sus tained as a valid assignment and transfer of property."

Specially Complied for the Toilers by an Ad' voeate Man. During March, less than ten thousand men wcre.out on strikes. Thcf 9, f s great activity throughout the New.E.nRjapd Iron centres. The Pennsylvania Steel Works paid out $lS0,pOO as wages last month. . , The Blttenbcnder oro mines, In Lehigh county, Idlo for many years, started up this wcck,tl , , A newspaper devoted entirely to the Interests, of labor will bo started at ilarris- burg soon, . , . . It Is pleasing to note the steady growth bf labor Organizations throughout tlic coun try generally. , , , At several small municipal contests last wcclf In New York, theUu'ltod Labor Party was successful. Ilavles & Thomas, machinists, Cata sauqua, have Increased tho wages of all their employees. ., The employees of die, Bethlehem, lion Company will contribute one day's wages each to St, Luke's llospl(a)., , . , Tho Hyatt school slate factory, at Ban gor, which has been blip .several months, restarted with now and Improved machinery this weeV. All but two of the furnaces fn the Le high YaHcy are how In operation. The ones not now In blast arc at Reddlngto'n and Parryvllle All the Iron companies are shipping large, quantities of Iron, some of them from one hundred to two hundred cats per week. . t Grand Master Workman Towderly has Issued an yrder for a spcclal.convcntlon of tho Knights ot Labor of PcnnsyJvanIa,tobe held at Harrisburg, April 7i to consider such labor legislation as the order may de sire to liavo passed at the present session of the State Legislature. The demand for labor Is steadily In creasing all over the country. The generel Industrial prospect Is very Inviting. Raw material Is scarcCa'nd stocks are low. Trade organizations aro strong and confident, and If labor disputes can be avoided the year will be one of phenomenal prosperity. Navigation has becnrjisutnpd on tho, Lehigh calial, and In a short lime all the boatmen In the Lehigh Valley will be at work about fifteen hundred men and boys find constant employment 'from this source during the boating season. This will give a npw Impetus to business thtoughout the valley. If the worklngmcn climb up, and achieve a higher position they are respected nccoruingiy. i.ei mem accept uesrcuatlon and thev are despised accordingly. It is a natural law and right. When the corpora tlott strikes all feel Us blows. You have felt these blows and did hot know whence they came, and you may have prayed for strength to bear these afflictions. But you should havo prayed for strength to tear false systems down. That's the kind of a prayer to offer up; prayer for strength to conquor, not patience to bear. District Assfttnbly, No. 7,002, Knights of Labor, composed of Iron-workers, has asked all the Iron establishments In Reading for an increase of ten per cent. In wages, on the ground. tliat.tho .employes should be ben6fited bv the prosperous condition of tho iron trade. About two thousand men arc interested. The proprietor of the Read ing Iron Works on Tuesday announced to the sheet mill and rolling mill employes that the wages of the ,puddlers Would be advanced from $3.75 to $4 per ton and all others advanced four per cent. Tho pro prietors of the other mjls must decide to day (Saturday) ,as to what they will do. The Committee on Labor of the Con necticut Legislature has reported a bill which will go far towards preventing strikes and lockouts. It provides for the appointment by the Governor of that State, ono arbitrator In each coucty, who, with the. Governor, shall constitute a general, Court of Arbitration, to which ap peal shall be had as a last resort In labor controversies. The committee lias also re ported another bill of Interest to the work ing classes, which provides that working men may form guilds In .each, trade, and that these guilds may inako contracts to furnish.libor by the year; taking absolute wages or a percentage of profits, or both. The appropriation for, deputies of the Bu reau of Labor Statistics Is to.be Increased from $1000 to $2000, so that at Icast two competent experts can bo employed.on a per diem to gather statistics of wages and other facts connoctcd with manufacturing and to ieport through the bureau of the gujjijs., , tills will enable the guilds to know where best to Inyest their labor.
