cairying employes up and down on the elevator we need only call attention to the rule published bv tlie buildiug inspectors If an accident bad happened to any of them we were liable to be sued for a large amount besides being put to great expense and troutde conse quence In self defense when our attention was called to these rules we were compelled to pro hibit riding on the elevator Jut immediately took steps to procure an elevator accident poiicv that we might allow our employes to ride and yet be pi elected against suit in ease of accident All tins was entirely gratuit ous on our part ns we believe there are compara tively few factories where employes are allowed torido on the elevators The climbing of from two to three flights of stairs twice a day is cer tainly not a great hardship Most people do this many times a day in their own homes Still we desired to make it as easy as possible for our em ployes ami so secured the insurance mentioned lip tat'diiig as we have done to commence on the first of the month to carry them on the elevator to their work to the nine and one half hours work this could be the only possible cause of complaint: but from nine and one half to ten hours per dav is well known by everyone to be the rule in factor ies throughout the country Our trade lies in every state and territory iu the union and Can ada Maine even to the Sandwich Islands' We are compelled to meet all competition and as some of our shops were working on nine and one half hour time we decided to put all on the same basis As the work In the embroidery shop is very easy and pleasant we knew of no reason why the embroiderers should not be Included Now however we find there is a state law to the effect that nmo hours Per day shall constitute a work for women and we propose to Obey the la giving up the Snturilav disraissmal which we were led to believe at tue time would be very pleasant and acceptable to our hands Whether they worked nine and hours per day for six days or ten hours for five days aud seven hours on Saturday made not tbe slightest difference to us and we so stated to the foremen and forewomen of tne different shops XVe told them specifically that whichever the majority agreed upon would be acceptable to us When Mr Simpson notified us of the nine hour law however xve told him we would of course obey it Again as to the embroiderers as they themselves slate in their communication it takes about a year to learn how to do the work They forgot to men tion however that all that time with the excep tion of the first two or three weeks we have paid them good wages wasted quantities of bul lion and have taught them a valuable art as well as trade Very many have put us to this trouble and expense and left us before we have received any value for the same As to tbe poor health and eyesight of the embroiderers that Is all the veriest twaddle That among so many people some should not enjoy so good health or have as perfect eyesight as others can be readily un derstood but we are rather proud of the good looking well dressed bright eyed and healthy lot oj people we have always hud In our employ inally we could not allow one shop to have spe cial rights over other shops We believe th have been misguided If they had come directly to ns and talked the matter over ouietlv and pleas antly or have placed their so ca led troubles into the hands of any tinr mn led busmess man to ad just with us we believe the whole matter could have been settled in half an hour but as it was their conduct affected the other shops and we were compelled to shutdown that shop XX do not however propose to continue to keep he shop closed AVe have always tried to nmko the conduct of our business and our work satisfac tory to our hands have given them many special privileges have treated them kiudlj have set no driving task makers over them and during th mar years we have conducted business this is the first trouble we have had with our employes We are not responsible for the many mis state ments which have gone forth and we prefer our old hands to new The Kansas City Diamond Bobbery Kansas City Mo August 3 definite clue has yet been obtained to
