This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.
About Google Book Search
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful. Google Book Search helps readers
discover the world's books while helping authors and publishers reach new audiences. You can search through the full text of this book on the web

Work of Deputy Factory Inspectors (Table 1).
On the 28th day of March, 1911, 1 was honored by the Commis-
sioner of Labor with appointment to the office of Firat Deputy
Commissioner of Labor and Chief Factory Inspector.
The work of the bureau of factory inspection was taken up at
once and I proceeded to familiarize myself with the duties of the
position to which I had been appointed.
No radical change were made in the bureau owing to the fact
that legislation on the Phillips bill was pending and this measure
provided for the re-organization of the Department. When this
re-organization takes place and is in working order, I believe it
will result in giving to the State of New York a much improved
system of factory inspection.
Under the new law we now have a mechanical engineer who
is devoting special attention to the matter of proper guards for
machinery, prevention of accidents, etc. As the result of the work
of this expert, we hope later on to have a uniform system of orders
to guard machinery.
Since my connection with this bureau a new mine inspector
has been appointed and he has proved himself to be a very capable
and earnest inspector. He is doing excellent work in the thorough
inspection of the mines and quarries of the state.
There has also been recently appointed an additional tunnel
inspector who will be able to take up the wonderfully increased
tunnel work now being carried on throughout the State of New
York.
Eight regular inspectors have been assigned to work under the
immediate supervision of the superintendent of licenses. These
inspectors will confine their efforts to the thorough inspection of
tenements and places affected by the provisions of section one hun-
dred of the Labor Law.
While great credit is due our inspectors and our force generally,
for the amount and character of the work accomplished during the
year just closed, we hope, with our increased force and the con-
templated re-arrangement of the work of the bureau, to perform
better service and cover a greater amount of work during the
coming year. It is the purpose to have more frequent inspections
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Eeport of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 19
made of the places most needing our watching and supervision.
In many instances it has been clearly demonstrated to us that
even with constant surveillance it is a difficult matter to have the
standard maintained.
During the year ended September 30, 1911, the force of in-
spectors in this bureau made regular inspections throughout the
state, including factories, laundries, mines, tunnels and tenement
houses, to the number of 59,238. This number exceeds our figures
for the year 1910 by 2,422. The total number of inspections made
shows a steady increase each year. The number of places to be
inspected is growing each year, and it is with pleasure we refer to
the increased number of inspectors given to the Department to
care for this steadily increasing business.
The grovnng popularity of the modem loft building is clearly
evidenced by the fact that in ITew York City alone the number of
factories located in such buildings numbered 26,281 for the past
year, while the number for the year 1910 was 25,847.
A tenant-factory building, as was explained in our report for
last year, is a building with at least two tenants, one of which is a
factory.
In addition to over 59,000 regular inspections, 48,477 visits
wexe made on applications for licenses, in the investigation of com-
plaints and compliances with orders. Of the visits on compliances,
28,045 were first and 16,092 were second or subsequent visits.
A decrease is noted from 126 tagging cases in tenements in 1910
to 78 in the year 1911, while 112 fewer tenant factories were
tagged in 1911 than in 1910.
In bakeries the ovens and utensils were tagged in 61 cases. The
total number of bakeries inspected in 1910 was 4,156 while during
the past year 4,996 bakeshops were visited by our inspectors, this
being an increase of 840 bakeries inspected,
The total number of prosecutions instituted by officials of the
factory inspection bureau was 413.
Counsel, F. 5. Cunningham, and his assistant, Charles Whelan,
deserve credit for the amount of work handled in the courts and
the results obtained through legal actions instituted by them for
violations of the law, as enforced by this bureau.

Complaints (Table 4).
In the matter of complaints filed with this bureau it is found to
be very unsatisfactory to handle those sent here anonymously, be-
cause, in many instances, our investigations show that we have no
jurisdiction in the premises and we are not able to convey informa-
tion to those sending in the complaints.
As soon as complaints are received they are accorded prompt
and careful attention, whether or not they are signed.
In no instance is the source of our information divulged. No
action is taken against any manufacturer solely on the facts sub-
mitted in the complaint. Our inspector makes investigation and
if the conditions found by the ofiBcial warrant action by this bureau,
such action is based on the report of our own representative.
During the past year, as is usual, many complaints, signed and
anonymous, have been received by the bureau, alleging the failure
of incorporated concerns to pay employees weekly and in cash, as
provided in the statute.
When such complaints have been sustained by our inspectors'
findings on investigation, legal notices have been issued requiring
immediate compliance with the law. We have been generally suc-
cessful in securing compliances with these special notices.

Accidbnts (Table 5).
As will be noted by the summary of accidents, the law in regard
to the prompt reporting thereof is being complied with very satis-
factorily.
However, to my mind, there is still room for improvement in
this direction. A special effort will be made by the bureau during
the coming year to secure even a greater observance of this require-
ment of the law.
The amendment to section 87 of the law, requiring that the per-
son in charge of any factory shall keep a correct record of all
deaths, accidents or injuries sustained by any person "therein or on
the premises, in such form as may be required by the oommissioner
of labor, the record to be open to our inspectors when they are on
the premises, will prove of great assistance to the factory bureau
in perfecting its work in the collection of information relating to
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Repokt of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 21
accidents and injuries in factories. A samiple showing the form
in which this oflSce record of accidents is to be kept, is furnished
in response to inquests and inquiries for information about this
matter and ike same is set up in the following form :
Pursuant to the provisions of the statute in effect October 1, 1910, the commis-
sioner of labor will require that there be kept in the office of eaeh factory, a record
which shall contain the information as set forth in the following sample form:
Name of firm:
List of Emplotebs Injured. Beginning October 1, 1910.
Serial Name of Occupation at time Date of Date rep't'd
No. employee. of accident. Home address, accident. to Albany.

Not only must the above record be kept in the factory, mine or quarry office, but
aU accidents and injuries must be reported to the Factory Inspector, within 48 hours
after their occurrence. Forms for this purpose are furnished by the Factory Ins|>eotor
on request.
Failure to keep the record and to report accidents is a misdemeanor.
Many questions come to the bureau regarding the accidents that
are to be reported. An effort is made by this oflBce and by our
oflSoials in ;the field, to make it very clear to those affected by the
statute, that reports are required covering only such accidents and
injuria as happen in the factory or on the factory premises.
A word of explanation is necessary with regard to the enormous
increase in the number of accidents reported this year as compared
with last. This increase in reported accidents throws absolutely
no light upon the question of whether accidents in factories in this
state are increasing in number or not. The increase is rather
explained by changes in the method or completeness of reporting.
Some of the increase is probably due to more nearly complete
rei)orting of all cases, due to increased efforts by the bureau to
insure reporting this year; but, most of the increase is due to a
change made at the beginning of this year, in the specification of
reportable accidents.
Prior to this year employers were required to report only acci-
dents causing " cessation from work for at least half a day (five
hours or more)'' but on October first, 1910, this limit was abolished
and thereafter all accidents were required to be reported which
caused any interruption of work for the employee. The main
reason for this change was the consideration that as an indicator of
Digitized by VjOOQIC

danger a trivial accident may be quite as significant as a serious
one. This change accounts for the fact that the increase in num-
ber of accidents reported to nearly double the number last year, is
almost entirely in the number of non-fatal accidents.
Child Labor (Tables 6 and Y).
To those interested in the work performed and the results
accomplished by the factory inspection bureau, there is not a
more interesting subject than that of child labor. Violation of
the child labor provisions of the law has furnished a large number
of cases for prosecution during the yean
Coming- into the department with an especially keen interest in
this particular phase of the work of the factory inspect! v,^ bureau,
I was surprised to find that the child labor problem was so well
in hand. The law requiring employment certificates for children
between 14 and 16 years of age, can be considered as generally
observed.
There has, however, come to my special attention, a surprisingly
large number of violations in the matter of employing children
under 16 years of age in excess of eight hours per day and before
eight o'clock in the morning and after five o'clock in the evening.
Shortly after I assumed my duties as chief of the factory bureau,
a vigorous crusade was started to wipe out as far as possible illegal
practices in the hours permitted or required of children employed
in factories. The inspectors, under my personal direction and in-
struction, were sent out in squads in Greater ^NTew York, to clean
up every case that could be found of violation of the law in this
respect. In the case of one hundred and thirty-seven concerns
we were able to establish violations as to illegal hours for children
and the delinquents were taken into court.
There will be no cessation of our efforts along this particular
line. We will aim to bring about strict observance of the law regu-
lating hours of labor of children employed in factories and no
labor will be spared to impress upon the employers of children, the
fact that they may expect no leniency when found violating the
child labor provisions of the statute. The question of the hours
permitted and required of children in factories is one of economic
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 23
importance to the state and our energies will be concentrated on
the wiping out of violations of this kind.
For the year ended September 30, 1911, 13,083 children
under the age of sixteen years were found employed in the factor-
ies of this state, exceeding the number employed in 1910 by 753.
Of the total number employed, 126 were under the age of fourteen
years, and in every case where suflScient evidence of the age of the
child could be obtained by the inspector, the employer was taken
into court.
A total of 12,957 children between the ages of fourteen and
sixteen years was found employed, 736 of whom were illegally
at work.
The continued decrease in the number of children illegally
employed, between 14 and 16 years of age, is shown in the
following:
1907 15.8
1908 11.6
1909 7.2
1910 6.2

Safety.
From personal observation it is very clear to my mind that one
of the most objectionable and serious obstacles to safe conditions
in factories, is the wooden partition found entirely too frequently
in the shops and factories where facilities for escape in case of fire
are all but wholly inadequate.
In many instances we have been fortunate in having these parti-
tions removed or changed, merely as a result of earnest and urgent
suggestion on our part. However, under the law we have no actual
authority in a matter of the kind and in a number of cases we have
been unable to get changes made which would materially improve
conditions in the shops. These partitions not only obstruct but
are a menace in case of fire.
Ventilation.
Since my connection with this bureau our field force has not
been required to accord any special attention to the matter of
ventilation in factories inasmuch as under the present law it is
Digitized by VjOOQIC
24 New York State Department of Labor.
almost impossible to secure satisfactory compliance with this
provision of the statute.
In some instances where atmospheric conditions were found to
be particularly bad, improvement in the air conditions has been
insisted upon. In every case where compliance with the law has
been demanded, we have firmly refused to approve the apparatus
installed, making it clear to those interested that the bureau
insisted on proper air conditions and would approve and accept
only such conditions as met the requirements of the law and the
standard established by the department.
It is to be hoped that very soon a legal standard will be estab-
lished so that the bureau may be enabled to enforce provisions of
the law calling for improved air conditions in unsanitary
factories.
Tenement Manufactures (Table 8).
During the entire period in which the present tenement house
law has been effective, 17,137 applications for licenses have been
received, all but 586 of which were in Greater New YorL
During the year 1911, 1,387 applications were made. Of these,
33 stood refused at the close of the year, 140 were canceled and 6
were pending on September 30, 1911.
The tenement inspection work during the year was accorded
particularly careful attention and the field force covered practi-
cally all of the licensed tenements and rear shop buildings in
Greater New York.
At the time inspections were made by our officials, persons to
the number of 19,628 were found working in 12,982 apartments.
Of the persons employed, 4,146 were working in 1,472 separated
shops in stores, wherein the license features of the tenement house
kw do not apply.
Persons to the number of 239 were illegally employed, while
107 children of school age were working during the sessions of
the public schools. Cases of disease reported in licensed houses
numbered 64, but only 2 cases were found in apartments where
work was being done.
The sanitary condition of licensed tenements generally waj
found to be very satisfactory. Orders were isaued against 310
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 25
buildings, while in rear shop buildings, only 23 were found to
require orders.
In treating the subject of tenement work, the following from
the report of the Superintendent of Licensee, Daniel O'Leary,
concerning work in New York City, is respectfully submitted.
The total of all licensed tenement houses in&pected numbers 12,632, and
the number of licensed rear buildings, commonly designated " rear shops," is
405, making a total of all licensed tenement buildings inspected during the
year of 13,037. These figures exceed those of 1910 by 1,194 buildings.
In the 12,632 licensed tenement houses 153,156 separate apartments were
Borutinized besides cellars and basements and other parts of buildings not
used in common and not used for living purposes. Licensed tenement houses
to the number of 5,291 were found to contain no workers at the time of
inspection. There were 1,472 store shops, or apartments that were found
wholly devoted to work purposes and having no connection whatever with
Uving rooms. In these store shops were found employed 4,146 persons in-
cluding the proprietors of such shops.
The whole number of persons found at work in tenement houses, including
those employed in shops therein, is 19,628. The number of persons found
actually at work in living rooms on articles coming under | 100 is shown to
be 15^80. The total number of apartments found in use under the law in
tenemeat houses, 12,982. This number includes 1,472 stores and other shops
in tenement houses, and makes the number of living apartments or rooms
which were found in actual use under § 100 to be 11,510, which number
of Uving apartments or rooms contained 15,280 workers.
Again this year a slight falling off is shown in the number of rear shops.
In 1910, 431 recorded licensed rear shops were reported. This year we show
only 405. I repeat my statement of last year, to wit, that this class of old-
time and troublesome shop buildings is gradually disappearing. The chief
cause is the construction of new and up-to-date shop buildings in which
better accommodations are provided and which are vastly more satisfactory
to both the employer and his employees.
Of the 405 rear shops visited, 103 were found closed or devoted to other
business. Only 23 orders were issued against the 302 shops found in use.
This is very satisfactory as showing the sanitary conditions prevailing. In
the 302 shops were found employed 5,438 persons.
Only 910 of the 12,632 licensed tenement houses inspected received orders
of any kind. In aU, 42 licenses were revoked for purely sanitary reasons.
Cases of disease reported in licensed houses numbered 64, but in only two
apartments was disease found where work was proceeding, and none was found
in shops.
There were 107 children of school age found at work in their homes during
school hours, all of whom were promptly reported to the Associate City
Superintendent of Schools for attention under the Compulsory Education
Law. There is no provision of law placing this duty upon this Department,
but I feel that the Department should have some record on the subject of
the employment of children in the home, who are of school age, at least
in so far as their employment may relate to work under $ 100. Consequently,

I have instructed the inspectors to carefully watch for children employed
in their homes during the sessions of the public schools, to closely question
and report any so found and ascertain whether they attend school, cause of
absence, etc., with results as above noted.
There were 239 persons found illegally employed in living rooms, i. e.,
239 persons who were not living in the apartments in which they were found
at work. All such violations were dealt with promptly, that is they were
discharged by the tenant who hired them on the order of the inspector
when found or if not, the work of such tenant was promptly stopped by
the use of the tenement tag.
There were 971 licenses canceled for reasons other than sanitary, and 42
licenses were revoked for foul or unclean conditions found in the buildings
for which they were issued; 1,404 new licenses were written; 1,368 new appli-
cations were filed; 1,406 notices were sent out to owners of tenement houses
under { 105; 1,698 inspections or reinspections of new applications were
made.
Of the applicatione for licenses 165 were refused on first inspection; 140
were canceled. Cases of the application of the tenement tag numbered 78, in
46 of which cases the goods so tagged were seized and removed from the
place where found. I authorize the inspectors to use the tag freely to secure
prompt compliance with orders, as I find from experience that such treat-
ment is more effective in bringing about immediate results than if we re-
sorted to the issuance of a warrant of arrest of the offender, in addition to
a very large saving of time of the inspector who by this means is kept in the
field instead of in court.
There were 1,663 unrecorded tenement houses visited as being suspected
of having persons employed in them of which only 204 were found to contain
no workers. The total of all inspections of licensed houses, of houses for
which new applications were filed, and houses suspected of violations of
S 100 is shown to be 16,423. These figures show pretty clearly the constant
activity of inspectors on this work. Complaints against this class of work
have been few. This is especially true of those complaints having a valid
basis under the law.
I instructed the inspectors to carefully separate in their reports to me
the ready made from the custom made clothing. This is, I believe, the first
accurate information of this kind ever collected. I am much pleased with
it. It is as complete and as accurate as is possible to obtain as the data
were all collected from personal contact with and interrogation of the
people found employed. In considering this feature, the terms " ready made "
and "custom made" should be understood to apply entirely to clothing
for adult or child, male and female. Custom work is composed of work
from the hands of the journeyman tailor, which is made by hand for the
individual customer from measure. The "ready made" is that work
made up for the public trade, irrespective of the quality of the goodc or the
class of the trade to be served. The number of home workers comprising
both classes of workers run pretty evenly as to volume, 7,243 "custom"
hands and 7,716 " ready made " hands being found.

Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 27
In location there is a great difference, as we find the custom workers scat-
tered over every part of the city, while the ready made clothing workers
are found in greatest volume in the sections wherein are located the shops
of the ready made clothing manufacturers or of their contractors. Again,
the majority of the custom workers are males, while those on ready made
goods are females, and of course, there is a very large difference in the earn-
ings of both classes as one class does only that part of the garment thai
cannot be done in the shop and requires no particular skill, while the other
class, the cUstom workers, must make and shape the garment after it is cut,
which requires skill and knowledge on the part of the worker obtained only
after long service as an apprentice, etc., at this trade.
Of workers on articles other than clothing, there were 1,962 feather
makers, 1,170 artificial flower workers, 1,537 engaged on various other articles
specified in { 100.
The nationality or race of the worker is another very interesting feature.
The inspectors reported 22 different races employed in the home, but the
great bulk of such workers was divided between the Italian and Jewish raoes^
the former having 10,081 while the latter had 6,668. The numbers reported
for other nationalities or races were as follows:

The number of recorded outstanding licenses on October 1, 1911, was
13,213 against 12,841 for 1910. Comparison with other years will show that
the percentage of home workers does not fluctuate very materially. My ex-
perience teaches that necessity is the great impetus in this line or class of
work. Few persons are met with among the home workers, who engage in
such employment from purely sordid motives, or for the sake of earning
mere pin money. The necessity for honest and decent self support, or to
aid in the support of dependents, is, we find, the chief reason for the greatest
amount of so-called home employment. I am satisfied also that this report,
full and complete as it is, does not cover all persons who do work in their
own homes, for I believe that there are many persons ift this city thus em-
ployed who take great pains to hide that fact, not alone from the eyes
of the law, but from the eyes of the whole world so far as possible.
This work throws us into constant contact with that side of life where
the struggle for existence is greatest, and misery and want and destitution
cannot be hidden, and by those who strive to get a livelihood by honest
efforts. Therefore, while the mandate of the law is harshness itself, we

try to temper it6 enforcement with as much consideration, patience and com-
mon sense and a spirit of human sympathy as is possible to extend while
performing our duty under the law.
The general conditions met with show improvement, in that obedience with
the requirements of the statute is more easily obtained than formerly, but we
cannot check or stop the moving about of the people who are engaged in this
line of work. The bulk of new applications is caused largely by removals of
workers who perhaps seek a better paying location in which to prosecute
their labor, or perhaps more often seeking cheaper rent.
I am pleased with the new arrangement which gives to this division a
permanent set of inspectors and shall strive with them to make the work
for the present year more thorough and efficient if such is at all possiUe.
Prosecutions (Table 3).
To effectively enforce the provisions of the law applying to
factories and to maintain a proper respect for those administering
them, makes it necessary in many instances to have recourse to
the courts. No year's work proves an exception to this rule, as
the lesson sought to be impressed by resort to punitive action
appears to be soon forgotten. This holds good especially in regard
to the employment of children. In spite of all admonition and the
publicity given to this subject, a comparison of the records for the
past six years, in which period more drastic efforts were resorted
to than at any other previous time in the history of the bureau,
shows violations of this character continue to form the greater
part of the causes for prosecution.
The table setting forth a summary of prosecutions, and forming
part of this report, is divided into two parts, the first giving cases
pending on October first, 1910, and the other the cases instituted
between that date and September 30, 1911. Out of 84 cases in
the first group, 80 were disposed of, 2 are awaiting trial, and
2 the magistrate's decision. These last two mentioned cases have
been held in the balance since 1909.
During the period covered by this report, 413 cases were insti-
tuted, 285 for the illegal employment of children or nearly 70 per
cent of all the cases brought. For failure to observe the laws of
sanitation and safety 99 cases were instituted; there were 17 for
employing minors and women under 21 illegal hours, 2 for permit-
ting work in unlicensed tenements, 5 for failure to improve
unsanitary bakeshop conditions, 3 for failure of corporations to
pay their employees weekly, 1 for failure to report accidents and

1 for interfering with the inspector while in the discharge of his
duty.
Of all those which came to trial there were 56 diMnissals or
acquittals, 6 withdrawals and in 188 cases sentences were
suspended. In 129 cases fines were imposed aggregating in
amount the siun of $3,050.
In conclusion, I desire to express my appreciation to you and
the entire force of the bureau of factory inspection, my thanks
and appreciation for their earnest co-operation and assistance in
carrying out the laws of this Department

EEPOKT OF THE MEDICAL INSPECTOR
Hon. John Williams,
Commissioner of Labor, Albany, N. Y.
Sir: I hereby submit my report as medical inspector of
factories for the year ended September 30, 1911.
During the year my activities have been confined principally
to New York City, and were devoted to routine work in relation
to ventilation, inquiries regarding sanitation, the possibility of
poisoning or disease resulting from various processes of manu-
facture, and special investigations.
The special investigations completed were those relating to
atmospheric conditions in the factories devoted to the manufacture
of cloaks, suits and skirts in New York City, and the danger q{
mercury poisoning in the manufacture of felt hats. Reports of
these are appended hereto.
Through the courtesy of the Board of Directors of St. Barthol-
omew's Clinic, the Department was continued in the privileges
of the laboratory for intensive study and research work in con-
nection with the various investigations undertaken.
The Department was represented at the Conference on Indus-
trial Diseases held at St. Louis December 29-30, 1910.
That the activities of the Department relating to intensive work
into atmospheric conditions of workrooms are now fully recog-
nized, was evidenced through a request from the Commissioner of
Health, and the Committee on Ventilation of the City of Chicago,
for an investigation into, and a report upon, the practicability of
ventilating basements and cellars of mercantile establishments and
workrooms. A report of investigations made in response to this
request is appended hereto.
Factory inspection relates to inspections and investigations of
conditions affecting the health, safety, and welfare of the workers,
a large amount of this work being properly classified as industrial
hygiene. Medical inspection, therefore, is intimately concerned
with (1) obtaining of data regarding the sanitary conditions of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 31
factories or work rooms, (2) investigating and studying the
various processes of manufacture with a view toward determining
the presence of injurious or dangerous substances, especially,
irritating or poisonous dust, fumes, gases or vapors, (3) conduct-
ing physical examinations of the workers for the purpose of
preventing the spread of infectious or contagious diseases, (4) the
physical examination of minors and women to determine those
physically unfit to continue work, and more especially the exami-
nation of all workers engaged in industries known to be dangerous
to health, for the purpose of preventing poisoning or disease, and
(5) the recommending of such means or devices as may prevent
injury, poisoning, or disease in the various industries.
At present there is no legislative authority which permits the
Department to carry on any investigations as to the actual physi-
cal conditions of the workers, which is essential to the completion
of an investigation of any industry. Investigations and inquiries
have been limited therefore to intensive studies of the processes
of manufacture, the conditions under which the workers are
obliged to continue their labors, and the dangerous elements
present to which the workers are exposed.
Ventilation.
Ventilation, i. e. factory or industrial ventilation may be
divided into —
General — as applied to all work rooms, irrespective of the
nature of the work being carried on, and
Special — as applied to the removal by mechanical means of
dust, fumes, gases or vapors generated during the process of manu-
facture, or resulting from the handling or storage of materials
used in the industry.
General ventilation may be secured either by natural or
mechanical means, but just when the natural means cease to be
proper and sufficient, and mechanical means become necessary can
be determined only through comparisons with scientific standards
which must be maintained. In the case of natural means, the
standard must obviously be one of permissible amount of vitiation,
determined preferably by a certain definite indicator, such as the
amount of carbon dioxide present.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
32 New York State Department of Labor.
Special ventilation may be secured only through mechanical
means, for it is self-evident that the removal of dust, fumes, gases
or vapors, must be accomplished through pipes properly connected
with blowers or exhaust fans of large capacity. Where it becomes
necessary to dissipate heat or humidity, the air must be constantly
and uniformly changed.
Section 86 of the Labor Law relates to general ventilation, but
there is an absence of specific standards as to purity or volume
of the air required. Again, that portion of the section dealing
with steam, gases, vapors, dust or other impurities generated in
the course of the manufacturing processes carried on, relates to
special ventilation, but fails to state specifically as to how the room
shall be ventilated to render them as harmless as practicable.
A portion of section 81 applies to special ventilation, in that
it sp^ifically provides for proper hoods and pipes and that such
pipes shall be connected to an exhaust fan of sufficient capacity
and power to remove all matter thrown off from grinding, polish-
ing, or buffing wheels, as well as dust and impurities from machin-
ery creating the same. Were these specific requirements made
applicable to that portion of section 86 relating to steam, gases,
etc., it would, in my opinion, tend to solve one of the ventilating
problems, as well as to render safe, many industries which are now
a menace to the health of the workers, and in many of which
women and children are employed. A large number of these
industries are to be found in tenant factories and converted dwell-
ings situated in congested districts.
I have found that there is an inclination on the part of most
factory proprietors to secure good atmospheric conditions in the
work rooms, but as a rule they desire to be shown specifically
what is required by the law in order to comply with its provisions.
In the case of dust creating machinery this is easily accomplished,
but, in many instances, large quantities of dust are present in the
atmosphere not due to machinery, and it becomes difficult to secure
proper compliance with the law; this is also true in regard to
fumes, gases, vapors, excessive heat and humidity.
The investigation undertaken in the cloak and suit industry
is a definite illustration of the capabilities of natural and mechani-
cal means for general ventilation in factories.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of BrREAu of Factoky Inspection, 1911. ^^
It must be conceded that, in large lofts with plentiful window
area, and where the workers are spread out, good atmospheric con-
ditions may be maintained through natural means, but this is true
only in industries where no dust, fumes, gases or vapors are an ac-
companiment of the work carried on.
Some work was done for the bureau of mercantile inspection in
relation to ventilation. The report of investigations into the ven-
tilating conditions of a large mercantile establishment appended
hereto shows what results may be accomplished by the installation
of a proper system.
Light.
The proper lighting of factories is an important question, for
it concerns not only the health of the workers, but also the preven-
tion of accidents.
Labor laws are intended to protect the health of the workers by
requiring work rooms to be properly supplied with the natural
conditions for labor, especially as to air and light. Notwith-
standing this fact, there is a dearth of legislation relating to the
subject of proper lighting and it has not received attention propor-
tionate to its importance.
In all factories visited I have found it the desire of the workers
to get just as near the source of natural light as possible, with the
result that in many industries there is a certain amount of crowd-
ing about the windows, which increases as the window area becomes
limited ; that this has a direct effect upon air vitiation is conclu-
sively shown in the Departmental investigation of atmospheric
conditions in various industries and more especially that of the
garment workers. This spells the need of legislation requiring
sufficient window area, both as to floor space, and to the number of
workers.
The use of certain kinds of window glass, and especially that of
ribbed or prismatic glass, has the advantage over ordinary window
panes in that the natural light is diffused over remote portions of
the work room which would otherwise be dark, but it also has the
disadvantage of causing a glaring and intolerable light to fall upon
the workers' eyes on very sunny days. This I have found to be
so from inquiries made of the workers in factories where such glass
Digitized by VjOOQIC
34 New York State Department of Labor.
is used, and have confirmed the truth of these statements from
personal investigations as to the effects.
Connecticut possesses a law which provides that colored and
corrugated glass may be removed if injurious to the eyes of the
workers. I would recommend that such authority be given to the
Department.
I would again refer to the question of the obstruction of natural
lighting of work rooms through uncleanliness of window panes,
arrangement of stock, partitions and machinery and recommend
remedial legislation granting the Department authority to regulate
such conditions.
In my previous reports, the question of artificial lighting in its
relation to air vitiation has been fully discussed. Its effects upon
the eyes of the workers, if too dim, or too glaring, are to cause eye
strain, nervous disorders, dimness of vision and the loss of eye-
sight, which latter is the greatest calamity that can befall anyone.
It has been impossible to undertake an intensive investigation into
the subject, but as a result of general injuries among the workers,
I find there are a number who suffer from the effects of faulty
lighting. I have observed many workers employed with unshaded
gas and electric light directly on a level with the eyes, and from
my own experience with such means of lighting, I am fully con-
vinced of the harmfulness of such illumination.
When artificial illumination becomes necessary, there should
be a fixed minimum standard of light to be maintained, as well as
a proper means of protection from too brilliant illumination.
In Holland the law requires a minimum intensity of ten bougie
meters (one foot candle) to be maintained, and, in some special
industries, such as sewing, knitting, embroidery, jewelry, engrav-
ing, printing, etc., an intensity of fifteen bougie meters (one and
one half foot candles) is required.
In the opinion of expert®, this is a fairly scientific and practi-
cable standard. I would recommend the adoption of such a stand-
ard. In my opinion, the Department should also be given author-
ity to require that workers l>e •proteete<l against excessive radiation
from the illumination in use.

Dust, Fumes, Gases, Etc.
The list of principal industrial poisons, as tabulated by a com-
mittee of the International Association for Labor Legislation, con-
tains thirty, and shows that the mode of entrance of such poisons
into the body is as follows :
In the form of duat 7
In the iorm of a gaa 12
In the form of a vapor H
The industries wherein the workers are exposed to such poisons
are numerous.
As a rule, most dusts, gases, fumes and vapors are either so
unpleasant or irritating in their effects that the necessity for their
removal is quite evident. In many industries, however, gases and
vapors of a character dangerous to the health of the worker are
present and yet imperceptible to the ordinary senses.
The question of dust in the industries has received such close
attention during the past few years that its injurious effects have
been fully demonstrated. The activities of the Department have
been devx>ted to intensive work regarding this important subject
and in the previous reports the question of dust has been discussed
at length.
Through Departmental investigation, it has been demonstrated
that in certain industries not classified as dusty, the presence of
dust in some quantities is one of the elements of danger.
An analysis of sample of air secured in the shops where skirts
are made showed as high as 70 grams of dust per million litres of
air, this being as large a quantity as was found in some of the
pearl button factories. The reason for its not being very apparent
is due to the fact that it is mostly organic, consisting of fibres of
cloth, emanations from the human body and, probably, particles of
food. The tests for oxidizable organic matter showed over 2 grams
per million litres. The danger from the presence of large amounts
of organic dust is due, not only to the irritating properties of some
of the cotton and wool fibres, but because it is fertile ground for
the growth of disease germs.
In some industries the danger is not alone from the irritating
organic dust but from the addition to it of irritating inorganic
Digitized by VjOOQIC
36 New York State Department of Labor.
dust This is shown by the analysis of samples secured from the
finishing room of a felt hat factory. In one gram (15 grains) of
dust, there was found .01021 grams of silica, a fine sharp sub-
stance which is the principal ingredient of glass. An analysis of
a sample of dust secured in a room where paris green was boxed
showed .303 grams per cubic meter, and further analysis showed
that of this, .093 grams was arsenic. This dust is not only poison-
ous, but very irritating, and, as a result of spending several days
at the plant, the mucous membrane of my nose, as well as that of
Inspector Vogt, was inflamed for some days after our visit
Samples of air secured in a brass foundry were analyzed and
showed 75.2 grams per million litres of air, and of this 55.4
grams were silica, which undoubtedly came from the fine sand used
for the flasks or moulds in which the metal is cast
This is conclusive proof of the necessity for granting the De-
partment authority to formulate regulations applicable to special
dusty conditions in the industries.
In order to satisfactorily safeguard the health of the workers
and protect them effectively from dangers of gas, fumes and
vapors, specific regulations applicable to the various industries
wherein such fumes, gases or vapors are generated, are required.
The question as to whether such conditions are the result of
processes of manufacture or otherwise, and as to whether they
may be dealt with effectively by appliances attached to machines,
by general ventilation through the use of artificial means, by appli-
ances to be worn by workers, or by a combination of these means,
must also be given careful thought.
There are many industries other than chemical works in which
gases, fumes and vapors may be present, not however, due to pro-
cesses of manufacture. These impurities may be in themselves
harmless, but in combination with other gases or with dust they
may become dangerous; they may be irritating in character, or
under certain conditions of temperature and humidity they may
lower the vitality, and predispose to disease; or they may be
poisonous.
As a result of the investigation in the cloak and suit industry,
the presence of carbon monoxide was conclusively shown to be
present in the air breathed by the pressers who used gas irons.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Ebpobt of Bubeau of Factoey Inspection, 1911. 37
This is a most deadly gas and not perceptible to the senses, but
under the present law we have no specific method of dealing with
this dangerous element.
Experience has demonstrated the need for well defined stand-
ards embodied in the law, providing for the effective removal of
impurities.
Women and Childeen.
The employment of women and children in the industries ii a
question of industrial hygiene as well as of economics. It is an
established fact that they are very susceptible to poisoning and
disease, and upon the conservation of their health depends the
health and usefulness of the future generation. It, therefore,
becomes a matter for medical inspection.
To pursue intensive investigations into the subject would re-
quire time and a staff of specially trained investigators. As part
of my activities some attention has been given to the conditions
found in factories relating to the safety, health, and welfare of
women and children.
Section 88 of the law provides that " Where females are em-
ployed, dressing or emergency rooms shall be provided for their
use; each such room shall have at least one window opening to
the outer air and shall be enclosed by means of solid partitions or
walls."
As a result of my visits I find that in the factories, and large
tenant factories, this section of the law is generally complied witli.
In many of the large factories a dressing room is rot only pro-
vided, but a lunch room as well, and in many instances there is a
small surgical room with a nurse in constant attendance; this is,
of course, a branch of welfare work worthy of consideration. On
the other hand, in many of the other smaller tenant factories
visited, I find that, owing to the smallness of floor area, and lack
of windows leading to outside air, it is almost an impossibility to
secure proper compliance with the law requiring dressing rooms.
Such rooms as are provided seem farcical, and are never used
except for accumulating rubbish which aids in making the shop
unsanitary. In my opinion, a remedy for this would be in requir-
ing the owners of such tenant factories wherein it is impossible to
provide suitalble emergency or dressing rooms in the individual
Digitized by VjOOQIC
38 New York State Department of Labor.
holdings, to set aside a portion of one floor for a common dressing
or emergency room, provided with sanitary conveniences and
lockers.
Section 17 of the law provides that every person employing
females in a factory shall provide and maintain suitable seats for
the use of such female employees, and permit the use thereof by
such employees to such an extent as may be reasonable for the
preservation of their health.
As a result of my observations it would seem that there is a wide
difference of opinion as to what are suitable seats. In many
industries the workers are seated during the entire period, using
chairs, stools or benches. Many industries require constant stand-
ing on the part of workers operating machinery, and rest is secured
by using a small shelf attached to the machine. Very few of the
seats that I have seen are in my opinion really suitable or restful ;
there should be a standard, and I would respectfully recommend
that a seat to be accepted as suitable should be such, that when the
employee sits the soles and heels rest comfortably on the floor.
Also, that such seats have a back set at an angle of not less than
100 degrees.
In many industries where women are employed near machinery,
dangerous accidents have occurred through the long hair catching
in gearing, pulleys, or about shafting. I would recommend that
authority be given to the Department to require the proprietors to
furnish caps or head coverings for females engaged at work near
machinery.
It must be conceded that a minimum age limit for working chil-
dren is of great value, but the mere question of chronological age
is no real determination of the child's physical fitness to engage in
certain occupations, for I have found eighteen year old boys, who
physically looked only fifteen, engaged at dusty occupations fit
only for strong adults, and I have also seen children between four-
teen and fifteen carrying heavy loads and engaged at work tending
to decrease the vital resistance and make a poor physique, but
under the law they were legally employed.
In the majority of foreign countries, the child before beginning
work must possess a certificate of physical fitness obtained only
after a thorough medical examination, and, after having begun
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 39
work, re-examination as to fitness to continue work may be required
by the visiting inspector. In my opinion such authority should
be granted to the Labor Department.
A maximum standard of labor which may be performed by
minors is essential for the encouragement of their proper physical
growth. This question has been made the subject of legislation
in France, and I quote some of the provisions relating thereto.
Children under eighteen years of age are not allowed to operate
foot-power machines, nor to turn horizontal wheels. No male
employee under eighteen years of age or any female employee
in an industrial establishment is permitted either inside or out-
side of the work place to carry loads in excess of the following
weights :
Pounds.
Boys under 14 yean of age 22.1
6033 14 and 15 yean of age 33,1
Boys 16 to 18 years of age 44.1
Qirls under 14 years of age 11.0
Girls 14 and 15 yea's of age 17.6
Girls 16 and 17 years of age 22.0
Girls 18 years of age and over 55.1
In a large number of industries, considered dangerous because
of the risk of poisoning, or because of the production of deleter-
ious gases and dust, children under 18 and all females are pro-
hibited from even entering the places in which the processes are
carried on.
In a large number of industries it is also prescribed that chil-
dren under 18 years, minor girls, and women shall not be em-
ployed in the workshops where dust is freely given off, where acids
are used or their fumes are present, where the fumes of carbon
dioxide or benzine are given off, and where poisonous materials
are used.
In my opinion, the Department should be granted authority to
formulate prohibitive regulations along these lines.
Industrial Diseases.
Labor laws are intended for the protection of the health of all
workers, and while there are many diseases traceable directly to
Digitized by VjOOQIC
40 New York State Department of Labor.
the occupations in which the workers may be engaged, the scope
of medical inspection of factories is more to determine those
pathological conditions due to the industries, meaning thereby,
manufacturing processes or work in factories ; there remains then,
a number of occupations within the provisions of the law, to which
medical inspection might be extended.
The study of the causes of diseases from which the workers
suffer is one of the first principles of industrial hygiene, as well
as one of the most intricate problems. The classification, or as
we might term it, medical nomenclature of such diseases is no
simple matter, owing to the fact that there are so many causes to
be considered.
In order to apply proper safeguards, statistical facts must be
secured tending to prove that the industry is the dominant seti-
ologieal factor in causing disease. A mere compilation based
upon general reports, or conclusions drawn from the hasty observa-
tions or casual inspections of the workers, is of little value. In
order to secure data that may be of material assistance in formu-
lating regulations, it becomes necessary to make an intensive study
of the industry, the worker, and the housing conditions.
In undertaking an intensive study of the industry for the
purpose of defining its relation to disease, the Department has met
with signal success. The result of the investigations already
completed shows definitely just what dangers are present from
processes of manufacture, materials used, or conditions under
which the industry is carried on.
The study of the workers presents a difficult problem, for it
must comprise, not only a thorough physical examination of each
one, but also a study of personal hygiene. To attribute to the
industries various diseases, based upon superficial examinations
of the workers, or upon mortality statistics is erroneous. For
accurate data it becomes necessary to look to the foreign countries ;
we are still lacking in those medical statistics which would go a
great way toward demonstrating just where the fault lies.
The hospital and dispensary records fail to show definitely the
relation of the patient^s occupation to the disease, and though I

Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 41
was informed that there have been tabulations made relating to
the illness of workers in certain industries, suoh statistics have
been collected for personal use and were not available.
The present mortality statistics are of small value, for there
are many deaths due primarily to the occupations of the workers,
but which have not been recorded as such. The following list
furnished by Dr. Guilfoy, Registrar of the New York City Health
Department, ^hows the number of deaths from occupational
diseases reported in Greater New York during the year 1910:
Lead poisoninK: storeotjrpere 1
paintere 4
Total 6
Mercury poisoning, preaainaker, rubber goods 1
Total deaths 6
In proportion to the population, and the number of known
dangerous industries, these statistics would indicate a very low
mortality from occupational diseases or poisonings.
From January to October, 1911, there were reported to the
New York State Health Department :
Deaths from chronic lead poisoning 16
Deaths from other chronic occupational poisonings 10
Of the many diseases attributed to the industries, tuberculosis
(pulmonary) has received the most attention from statisticians.
According to the authorities, the death rate from this disease is
very high among workers in tobacco, textiles, cutlery and pearl
buttons.
The following table which I have compiled from reports of the
State Health Department, January to October, 1911, shows the
number of deaths from pulmonary tuberculosis which occurred in
New York City, and a few cities and towns in other parts of the
state. The places selected were those wherein one industry pre-
dominated, and the factories had been visited by me. It is inter-
esting to note that the industries tabulated are ones considered as
ranking high in predisposing to pulmonary tuberculosis.

The addition of section 58 to the law, which requires the
reporting of certain industrial poisonings and diseases, will
undoubtedly aid in determining more fully industries dangerous
to the health of the workers.
In my opinion, the Department should be given authority to
rei|uire that all industrial j)oisonings be reported. During my
visits to the factories, I have, in different industries, observed
workers, who, in my opinion, were undoubtedly suffering from
the effects of aniline, zinc, benzine, carbon monoxide, and altsohol,
both amylic and methylic. Inquiries made of the workers seemed
to confirm my belief.
Accompanied by Inspector Vogt, some time was spent in a brass
foundry for the purpose of securing samples of air during the
|>eriods of casting the metal ; twenty-four hours later Mr. Vogt
became quite ill, and exhibited all the symptoms of zinc poisoning,
the illness lasting for several da}^. Analysis of the samples of air
secured showed the presence of zinc and copper, which was
definite proof of the danger from zinc poisoning, since the
analyses were confirmed by the actual effects upon one exiposed to
the air. Inquiries m-ade of the workmen in this and otiier brass
foundries confirmed the fact, for all suffered from the symptoms
known as brass founders' ague, which is zinc poisoning.
Referring to my report for 1909, the dangerous nature of
materials used in the manufacture of incandescent mantles was
pointed out. In the report of the Chief Factory Inspector of
Great Britain for tihe year 1910 appears the following report of
Dr. CoUis, one of the medical inspectors :
Manufacture of incandescent mantles. Four factories where incandescent
mantles are manufactured have been vieited to ascertain whether under the
present conditions of the work any injury is caused to the workers (1) by
vapor arising from the baths in which the mantles are dipped; (2) excess
of carbon dioxide generated in the process of seasoning or burning. The
Digitized by VjOOQIC
BSFOBT OF BUSSAU OF FacTOBY INSPECTION, 1911. 43
dipping bath contains a mixture of methylated ether (industrial epirit), 60
per cent, and methylated •spirit, 30 per cent, in which is dissolved collodion
and camphor. The vapor arising from this mixture if breathed to any ex-
tent by the workers causes headache, sickness, anorexia, sleepiness, and
lassitude, symptoms which are experienced to a greater extent on first com-
mencing employment. At one factory where the workers had to enter the
hot stoves, heated to about 115 degrees F. to carry in the mantles for drying,
and to remove the dried mantles, all seven workers complained of some of
the symptoms described. ♦ • • Suitable hoods and exhaust ducts, mini-
mising the amount of vapor which escapes, can be fixed over the dipping
hatha.
This is confinnation of the dangerous nature of this industry,
and in the places visited by me the employees were mostly minor
females and children.
In the manufacture of. felt hats, the principal danger has been
considered to be from mercurial poisoning. As a result of the
investigation undertaken by the Department into this industry,
it has been found that there is also an added danger from carbon
monoxide poisoning, and in the finishing process, the workers are
liBihle to pulmonary diseases resulting from irritation of the
mucous membranes through the inhalation of dust containing
large quantities of silica. This dust is created in the pouncing
and finishing of the hats with sand paper. From merely superfi-
cial physical examinations of a number of workers in this indus-
try, I found many of them suffering from bronchitis, although
from general appearances they were of fine physique. M-any of
them are reported as suffering from tuberculosis, but this I was
unable to confirm.
Dr. Waters of the New York City Health Department Tuber^
culosis Clinics reports that during 1910 the percentage of tubercu-
losis in various occupations represented at the clinic was as fol-
lows: laborers, 3.52; factory, 2.8&; operators, 5.47 ; pressors,
2.5; cutters, 1.82; painters, 1.48; carpenters, 1.22; furriers, 1.22.
All the garment workers grouped together furnish over thirteen
per cent., and yet the trade has never been classified as dangerous.
It is quite evident that the question of industrial diseases
demands an intensive study, and I would respectfully recommend
that authority be granted the Department to do so.

REPORTS OF SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS.
I. VENTILATION OF A DEPARTMENT STORE.
I would report that as per permission granted to comply with request of
Hon. W. A. Evans, M. D., Ck)mmi88i0ner of Health, of Chicago, III., I visited
the mercantile establishment of in New York City, on November
10th, 11th and 12th, for the purpose of making determinations of temperature,
humidity, carbon -dioxide and dust. Deputy Factory Inspector Vogt accom-
panied me during the visit and aided in the laboratory determinations. In
order to finish in time to comply with the Commissioner's request, it became
necessary to do the laboratory work on the nights of the 10th and 11th.
That portion of the basement devoted to merchandise is really a basement
surrounded by a balcony, but there is a very large portion of it under this
so-called balcony basement. From the basement there is an exit to the
concourse of the McAdoo tunnels. The sub-basement is devoted to shipping
and packing, and is divided by low partitions and racks; there are quite a
number of young women employed here.
There is a combination system of heating and ventilation of the plenum
and exhaust type. There are nine intake fans, each being about seven feet
in diameter, the air being taken dirctly from the sidewalk by means of three
intakes. The air is washed, screened and then driven through the building.
In the basement and basement balcony every other supporting column is an
air supply, the source of supply being near the ceiling, while the exhausts
are along the walls near the floor. In the water closets at the back of each
hopper there is also an exhaust. A determination showed the temperature
of the air being supplied to be 64 degrees F., humidity 60. Outdoor deter-
minations showed temperature 45 degrees F., humidity 40. In the sub-
basement, air supply is from ducts along the ceiling; and the exhausts are
from gratings set in the floor and along the sides of the walls. There are
ten fans for exhausting, which are about the same size as the supply fans.
Determinations were made in basement balcony, basement and sub-base-
ment for temperature, humidity and carbon dioxide. Samples of air were
collected, and laboratory determinations m^de for anunonia, oxidizable or-
ganic matter, and total solids (dust). Bacteriological determinations will
also be made. The large amount of total solids found is probably due to
(1) air intakes being at street level; (2) newness of wooden floors, not yet
thoroughly oil soaked; (3) drying out of new plaster walls.
Below are the results of our flndings. Temperature and humidity read-
ings were taken at floor, breathing, and high levels, and are marked re-
spectively a, b, c. The diagram following the table shows where tests
were made by the letters A, B, C, etc. Determinations are per million litres
of air. The carbon dioxide is recorded as parts in 10,000 volumes, 'ihe
ammonia in every test was less than .5 part per million. In all cases, the
air was carefully aspirated and measured; at no time were less than 500
litres aspirated.

II. CLOAK AND SUIT INDUSTRY IN NEW YORK CITY.
Technical Report.
At the request of the Joint Board of Sanitary Control of the Cloak, Suit
and Skirt Industry of New York City, an investigation into the atmospheric
conditions of the factories devoted to this industry was undertaken.
That the work might he facilitated, an assistant was provided by the Joint
Board. In order to make the investigation an intensive one, I deemed it
advisable to select certain types of buildings in which cloak and suit factories
were to be found, and made a thorough study of each shop in the various
types of buildings. Thus observations were made of the actual working con-
ditions covering the entire day. The types of buildings selected were classi-
fied as follows:
Loft Buildings, Recent Type, This included the large fireproof loft build-
ings of recent construction, containing all the up-to-date installations for
lighting, heating and plumbing.
Modem Loft Buildings, This included the loft buildings erected some
years ago (ten to fifteen), and not possessing the most modern improvements.
Old Type Loft Buildings, This included the old style loft factory building,
as a rule not over six stories in height, containing no modern conveniences,
and having two or more shops on each floor.
Converted Tenements and Converted Dioellings. Those included buildings
formerly used for family habitations, and were as a rule, situated in the
congested districts.
A number of buildings under each class were visited for comparison.
Corner buildings as well as block buildings were included in each type.
In order to properly consider the question of atmospheric conditions in
the factories, it becomes necessary to know what is the ideal outdoor atmos-
pheric condition, as well as the composition of the street air in New York
City, so that proper comparisons may be made.
Air is a mixture of gases. An analysis of air commonly accepted as normal
is as followfii:
Oxygen 21.04
Nitrogen 78.06
Argon 0.94
Carbon dioxide 0.03
Watery vapor variable.
Ammonia trace.
Organic matter variable.
Helium, krypton, neon, xenon, hydrogen traces
Micro-organisms 8 per litre of air
This analysis is volumetric and represents parts per 100 volumes.
Analyses made in St. Bartholomew's Laboratory of samples of New York
City street air were as follows:
Day clear and sunny, weather mild:
Total solids (dust) 30.00 grams per million litres.
Oxidisable organic matter 1 1 .00 grams per million litres
Ammonia 1 part per million.
Carbon dioxide 4 parts per 10,000 volumes.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 49
Day clear with strong wind blowing:
Total solids 114 . 00 grams per million litres.
Ozidisable organto matter 12 .00 grams per million litres.
Ammonia 3 parts per million.
Carbon dioxide. . , 4 parts per 10,000 volumes.
Bacteria 12 per litre.
Microscopic examination of the solid matter showed horse manure, quartz,
sand and a dark substance probably asphalt or cinders.
AnalyBis of a sample of air secured at Centreport, L. I., at an elevation of
one hundred feet aboye sea leyel, at early morn, showed 2 bacteria and 8
moulds per litre of air after four days* incubation at a temperature of 23
degrees centigrade; also:
Total solids (inorganic) 7 .00 grams per million li r. s.
Oxidizable organic matter , 0.2 grams per million Utres.
Carbon dioxide 3 + parts per 10,000 volumes.
The foregoing observations of local outdoor atmosphere afford the means
for comparison with the conditions found in the factories tabulated.
An examination of the appended tables to these special reports shows
some interesting data and does not support the usually accepted theory that
a large loft with numerous windows means one that is well ventilated, or
that old buildings in the congested district are unhealthful.
In tabulating, especial care was taken that the records should be of the
usual working conditions^ so that findings due to sudden changes resulting
from the opening of a large number of windows at once, or suddenly start-
ing up ventilating apparatus, and thereby causing sharp changes in the
reading (usually low), were not recorded in the tables. In some instances,
readings taken at noon, just after work was stopped, and a number of em-
ployees had left the loft, are recorded for comparison. Several readings
were taken in the morning usually beginning about 9 a. m. and again in
the afternoon, from about 1:30 to 5 P. m., and the maximum a. m. and P. M.
readings recorded in the table; the upper reading being a. m., the lower one
p. H., except when otherwise noted.
The samples for dust analyses were obtained by aspirating the air through
special bottles containing sterile water and not confining the selection to
any one portion of the room. In securing samples of air for determination
of carbon monoxide, they were taken at the breathing level of the pressers.
In determining the presence of micro-organisms, two methods were used,
that of exiposing a gela.tine plate known as a Petri dish, and also aspirating
a known quantity of air through sterile water, and then transferring a
definite quantity to a culture media, according to a method for determining
bacteria in water, recommended by the American Public Health Association.
In the tables, the wet bulb thermometer readings have been recorded in-
lAead of relative humidity readings being calculated. By so doing, the actual
amount of aqueous vapor present is more definitely shown and clearer com-
parisons may be made.
No record is made in the tables as to the number of windows open, for
in the majority of places visited, they were opened or closed at the con-
venience of the workers, so that windows were open and closed intermittently
during the securing of samples. This was also true of places where ventilat-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
50 New York State Department of Labor.
ing fans were installed, for the operations of these fans called forth loud
protests from the workers near the windows used as intakes that they could
not stand the draughts. Windows having ventilators were not exempt from
being closed.
In considering the carbon dioxide, temiperature and wet-bulbs, it will be
noticed that they often vary in different parts of the room. This shows
that there are not only numerous air currents and cross currents present,
but certain areas in which the air is dead or stagnant.
When there is a high velocity of the outer air, there is consequently an
area of high pressure at the portion of the building exposed, and the read-
ings will be lower than at the oppoedte or low pressure area of the building.
The situation of the gas irons used by the pressers, also, has much to
do with the readings. It is noticeable that in certain lofts where the irons
are near the windows, the carbon dioxide readings are lower than in other
parts of the room, which was caused by the changing of the air due to cur-
rents created by the heat of the irons. In many instances, the temperature
is high^ and carbon dioxide low. It will also be noticed that in some in-
stances the carbon dioxide is higher where the irons are near the windows;
this is probably due to this section being the low pressure airea and in the
path of the escaping air currents.
As a result of these tests, it is fully demonstrated that carbon dioxide is
not an indicator for the amount of carbon monoxide present; for a glance
at the tables shows that in many instances where the amount of carbon
dioxide is low the amount of carbon monoxide is high.
It is noticeable that the area of the loft, and also the situation of the
irons, have a marked bearing upon the carbon monoxide findings. In the
modern loft buildings with large floor area, there is less carbon monoxide
where a great many irons are in use, than in the old type loft buildings with
small floor area, and it is quite high in the converted tenement and dwell-
ings where only one or two irons are in use. Again, it will be noted that
the amount is less where the irons are near or at an open window. This
proves the need of proper air dilution to minimize the danger from this
gw.
It will be noticed that irrespective of the type of the building or its
situation, where a large number of workers are employed and natural means
of ventilation are relied upon, the carbon dioxide findings are high. A
reason for this lies in the fact that the workers are all situated in the por-
tion of the shop near the windows, so that they may have good light to work
by. The proper circulation of air through natural agencies is impeded, and
rapidly vitiated by body emanations, and on days when there is a marked
difference between outdoor and indoor temperature, conditions are made
worse. Under conditions such as these, the actual amount of air space per
person is unusually small, and there is a large dead area in the unoccupied
portion of the loft. When artificial illumination becomes necessary, and gas
is used, the conditions are rendered still worse, as the workers continue to
labor in the same place.
In the old loft buildings, and converted dwellings and tenements, where
the shops are small, often several on a floor, and but a few workers in each,
the carbon dioxide is rather high; this is due to the obstruction of natural
air currents. The windows are usually in the front or rear of the build-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Ebport of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 51
tag, and a partition separates the shops. In the cellar shops, even where
the floor area i& large, and the workers are few, the carbon dioxide is high,
due to inadequate means being present for facilitating air currents.
Where artificial means for ventilation has been installed, it will be noticed
that the carbon dioxide readings are low, and this despite the fact that the
systems were only run intermittently. It is true that to work such systems
continnally would compel the employees' to cease their labors, owing to
draughts and low temperature. This is especially noticeable on very cold
days. But it must be conceded that even the intermittent working of such
systems are of benefit in maintaining proper atmospheric conditions.
It has been proven that the amount of carbon dioxide increases the longer
a room is occupied. The resultsi recorded show this to be true, for with
the exception of those shops operating ventilating systems, the p. m. carbon
dioxide readings are, as a rule, higher than the a. m. readings, and this is
especially noticeable in the case of the older buildings. One of the probable
eause^ for this condition is the sudden increase of energy on the part of the
workers to finish the day's output. This muscular action increases the
amount of impurities thrown oflf from the body, and that the presence of
these impurities is indicated by the amount of carbon dioxide present cannot
be doubted. It has been demonstrated by physiologists that, the greater
the muscular activity, the greater the amount of carbon dioxide given off
from the body.
That the use of illuminating gas aids in increasing the amount of carbon
dioxide as well as the temperature is clearly indicated. It will be noticed
that where gas is used commercially for apparatus, or for illumination, the
carbon dioxide readings are influenced; for in the modern large lofts, where
a number of irons are in use, and the cubical contents of the room ample,
the carbon dioxide readings are higher than in a small loft having few
irons; this is due to the products of combustion, the irons consuming an
amount of oxygen, and producing an amount of carbon dioxide equal to a
great number of people.
Where steam heating is used it will be seen that the temperature is higher
than where coal stoves are in use and that the wet-bulb readings are also
high. Where coal stoves are depended upon, it will be seen that the teni-
perature is about 60 degrees F. and less, and that the wet-bulb readings are
also low; with each higher reading there is a corresponding increase of the
carbofn dioxide reading.
A careful study of the wet-bulb readings shows that they are generally
not high and that the means used for heating, use of gas, and crowding of
employees also has a direct influence upon such readings. Where there are a
large number working, steam heating and large quantities of illuminating
gas used, the wet-bulb is high. In the small shops while the readings are
not very high, in proportion to the number of workers present the readings
should be lower. That the amount of carbon dioxide varies with the humidity
is shown in the tables, for where the wet-bulb reading rises the amount of
carbon dioxide also increases; and in the lofts, where ventilating fans are
used and a low wet-bulb reading obtained, the carbon dioxide findings were
low.

One of the causes of unsanitary shops is the presence of food. In many
fthops the employees eat while at work, with the result that the food refuse
becomes scattered about the floor and under the benches, there decaying and
becoming fertile ground for bacterial growth, as well as vitiating the atmos-
pHere. Such conditions are especially prevalent where the sale of food stuff
is permitted in the factory, for, as a rule, the stalls and storage boxes used
by the peddlers are not clean.
To ascertain the presence of such impurities, analyses were made for the
amount of total solids, and presence of organic matter. A study of the
tables shows that wherever a food peddler was present, the shop was dirty
and the amount of organic matter was high. It is also noticeable that the
amount of carbon dioxide was high, demonstrating its value as an indicator
where organic matter is present. It would naturally be expected that such
conditions would only be found in the old types of buildings found in the
congested districts, but it is clearly shown, that even in the highest class
of shops, if food peddling is permitted it is difficult to secure proper clean-
liness.
In the old buildings in the congested district, an added danger ii^ the
presence of bedding i<n the ^ihops. Here, there is not only fertile ground for
bacterial growth, but also propagation of vermin, and in many instances the
cause of disastrous flres. The tables show that where bedding was present
organic matter was very high, and bacteria numerous.
Analyses show that the amount of dust in the factories is rather high
and yet the industry is not classed as a dusty one. That the duet is not
readily perceptiUe is probably due to its being organic and light, and to its
being generated in the course of cutting and sewing the goods. The ex-
treme fineness, as well as the irritating properties of the cotton and wool
fibres which compose the greater part of this dust, make it a source of
danger to the workers* health. The large number of garment workers, who
are treated for pulmonary diseases in the clinics and hospitals, fully estab-
lishes this fact.
The results' of the investigation clearly demonstrate that the atmospheric
conditions found in the majority of the shops are not conducive to good
health and should be remedied. That certain factors which cause unsanitary
conditions in the shops can be eliminated, and that the air may be changed
without discomfort to the workers has been established.
To secure these results requires the oo-operation of enrploycr and emrployee
a-s the present factory laws insure sanitary conditions in the shops, if properly
complied with.
In addition to these laws, I would suggest the formulation of regulations
along the following lines:
During the months of October and April a minimum temperature of
61 degrees F. should be maintained in the factories.
The amount of carbon dioxide present should not exceed 12 parts per
10,000 volumes during the daytime, or 20 parts at night when gas or oil is
used for illuminating purposes.
Where a number of gas irons are in use, mechanical means should be in-
stalled so that there may be a constant circulation of air maintained at the
pressers' tables.
The presence of bedding in the shops should be prohibited.

Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 53
The sale of food in shops, or eating at work tables during the hours of
labor, should not be permitted. Where there is no lunch room, special tables
should be provided at noon for the preparation of lunches, and all refuse
should be removed immediately after finishing lunch.
Smoking in the shops should be prohibited.'
General Repoe?.
In addition to the technical report covering the investigation of atmos-
pheric conditions of the cloak, suit and skirt industry of New York City,
the following general report is submitted.
The industry is really a division of tailoring or garment working, and is
carried on under practically the same conditions, many of the processes
being identical. Many of the shops are situated in the lower portion of the
city, and are found in all types of buildings devoted to commercial purposes.
There has been a gradual removal of these shops from the converted dwell-
ings and old type loft buildings to the more modern so-called fire-proof
buildings. In many of the large establishments, all the processes are carried
on in the same building, but in the small shops, which are found in the old
buildings, certain portions of the work which have been contracted or sub-
contracted for are carried on.
In the process of nuinufacturing, the work is mostly machine work, the
finishing and lining being done by hand. The various processes through
which the cloth passes from bolt to the finished product is as follows: cut-
ting, sewing and pressing. In many of the factr>ries tihe nmterial is merely
cut, and is sent to contractors to be sewed, pressed and finished. The cutting
consists in having a number of layers of cloth on top of which is placed the
pattern, and the cutting of the goods is accomplished either by means of
shears, a large knife, or the more modern method of a circular knife oper-
ated by a small motor which the cutter guides by hand; this work is per-
formed by those who are expert, the majority being males who command
high wages. As the work is particular, good light, as well as large tabic
space ifl necessary. The well lighted portions of the sliop are devoted to
cutting.
After the goods have been cut they are completed, either in the same
shop, or they may be sent out to the contractors who keep small shops, or
the work may be sent into the home.
The next process, sewing, requires the goods to pass through a number
of hands, for the industry is one in which the work is specialized, each
worker being employed in basting, hand sewing, machine sewing or pressing
just one special portion of the garment. The basting, which is a preparatory
sewing of the goods together, and requires little skill, is performed mainly
by the beginners, the majority of whom are male and female minors. The
goods are finished by the nuachiine operatoT^s. In all the large shops and in
the majority of the small ones, the machines are set on long tables which
are situated in rows, the motdve power bei>ng usually supplied by means of
an eleetric motor or gasoline engine. There are numerous sub-divisions of
the sewing whereby the linings, as well as the goods, are assembled into
the perfect garment. Duning the asaenvbling of the garment it is sent to
the pressors. Here the work is done either with hand irons heated on coal

furnaces or on small gas stoves, which is the method pursued in the very
old loft buildings on the East Side, and the hand gaa iron or tailor's goose.
There are many types of this iron, one which is equipped with the bunsen
burner, the other, which in addition to the gas, is supplied with compressed
air, so that the worker may regulate the flame. There is also a heavy gas
iron which is operated both by hand and foot.
The industry has never been considered either a dusty one or a dangerous
one, and in none of the classifications by authorities, even of recent date,
can it be found among the so-called " dusty trades," and yet, the results of
the Department investigation into this industry shows the presence of dust
in the air as high in amount as that found in some of the pearl button
factories investigated. It is evident that among the conditions in this
industry which are considered dangerous to the health of the workers, dust
plays an important part. Through the analyses of the atmospheric condi-
tions in those establishments where illuminating gas is used for heating
the irons, it has been demonstrated that the pressers are exposed to the
danger of the deadly gas, carbon monoxide.
In considering the relation of the industry to the health of the workers,
it may be well to start with the initial process, that is, the cutting of the
goods. In this process, the dangers arise from the dust created in the
cutting of the goods, and the operator, to follow the outline of the pattern
accurately, must keep his face close to the work. It has been demonstrated
that the inhalation of organic dust is a menace to health because of the
irritating qualities of such dust, the cotton fibres being the most dangerous.
This danger is minimized to a certain extent by the large amount of air
space for each individual, not due to any thought on the part of the pro-
prietors, but to the fact that it is necessary to have large table space to
spread the goods on for examination and cutting. Notwithstanding this
fact, a large number suffer from pulmonary tuberculosis, it being reported
that 1.82 per cent of all the occupations treated at the New York City
Health Department Clinic were cutters in the garment trade. The air
analyses in cutting rooms show 16 to 18 parts cairbon dioxide per 10,000
volumes, and 59 grams of total solids (dust) per million litres of air, prov-
ing conclusively the presence of a predisposing cause for pulmonary affec-
tions, and this condition was found in the most modern type of workroom.
In the process of sewing there are two types of machines used by the
operators. In the large shops power is used, whereas in many of the small
places foot machines are used, so that to make an intensive study of this
branch of the industry in its relation to the health of the employees careful
consideration is required of a large number of conditions which have a
bearing upon the health of the workers. The danger is not from the dust
alone, but also from the effects of nerve strain or fatigue due to the opera-
tion of the machines. This question has been studied rather carefully by
Dr. Sydney I. Schwab of St. Louis, who has reported a large number of
cases of neurasthenia among such workers. Another danger to which these
operators are exposed is that of having to work with artificial illumination
on a level with the eyes, especially that from incandescent electric bulbs.
Reports show this has a deleterious effect, not only upon the eyes, but upon
the general health.

Dr. Collis, one of the medical inspeetorB of the British Factory InBpection
Service, reports as follows:
The presence of nsrstagmio or oscillatory movements of the eyeball is well known to be caused
among miners, but it is not recognised that mmilar though slighter movements of the eyeball
occur when the vinon is directed laterally in other workers whose employment calls for continuous
use of the eye.
A case of pronounced nystagmus was brought to my attention, « * « «
The inquiry was then pursued among the female workers employed at sewing machines; 516
were examined, and it was found that 145, or 28 per cent, showed these movements; the condition
was present among 29^ per cent of workers between 14 and 17 years of age, in 30 per cent of
workers between 17 and 20 years of age, in 29.2 per cent of workers between 20 and 25 years of age,
in 22.8 per cent of workers between 25 and 30 years of age, and in 23.4 per cent of workers aged
30 and over, these figures point to the conditions being one of fatigue of the extra ocular muscles,
a condition more Ukely to be found among young females than older women.
Among the operators, the percentage of tuberculosis is rather high, it
being reported as 6.47 per cent of all the occupations treated in the New York
City Health Department Clinic
Analyses of the atmospheric conditions in such parts of the shops where
the operators work, show the carbon dioxide to be as high as 18 parts in
the modern loft buildings, and 25 parts in the cellar shops. This was where
natural means for ventilation were relied upon. A probable cause of the
high percentage of carbon dioxide is due to the fact that the operators are
crowded close to the windows for the purpose of securing as much natural
light as possible. In those buildings where the window area is limited, as
in the buildings situated in the centre of the block, it can be readily under-
stood that with such crowding together the air in the immediate vicinity of
such workers becomes vitiated through body emanations, causing that con-
dition formerly termed ** crowd poison."
The process of pressing is one which requires hard labor, and in the fac-
tories is done by adult males. As the number of pressers are few in propor-
tion to the other worKers, the process is carried on in the least desirable
portions of the factory. Fortunately for the pressers, the irons are at times
situated near a window, but the majority are in the centre or corners of the
loft
In pressing the goods a damp cloth is used, and as the operator must
bend over his work, he receives the full effects of the vapors generated.
The occupation of presser is, seemingly, the one most dangerous to the health
of workeri^ engaged in the garment industry. In the shops where coal
furnaces are used to heat the irons, the danger to the pressers from carbon
monoxide poisoning is not so marked as where the gas irons are used.
Where the irons are heated on a gas stove, the danger is increased, as the
operators are constantly bending over the stoves to change the irons. Where
gas irons are used, the danger is intensified, for in addition to the laborious
work, there is the added danger from the fumes of the products of com-
bustion, the carbon monoxide gas, the vapoi-s from the damp pressing cloth
and the heat.
It is well known that laborious work tires the muscles, that air vitiated
from products of combustion produces drowsiness, that carbon monoxide
destroys the red blood cells, thereby decreasing the percentage of oxygen in
the body which means inhibition of the real stimulus for muscular and

mental aotivitieB, and that vapors and heat enervate ; what wonder, then,
that with all these combined to afFect the worker, resort to stinMilantfl be-
comes necessary.
Prof. Glaisel has shown that constant working in close illuminating gas
atmosphere causes a condition of lethargy leading to the use of alcoholic
stimulants', and cites the tailoring industry as an example. From inquiries
made among the workers, a large number admit that the use of stimulants
is necessary. In many shops bottled beer is kept and sold to the workers,
and many of the food peddlers carry as the most profitable part of their
stock bottles of alcoholic stimulants, the best customers being the pressers.
From personal observations and examinations, I am fully aware that
many of the pressers suffer from pulmonary affections, and the cases of
pulmonary tuberculosis reported from the New York City Health Depart-
ment Clinic shows that of all occupations 2.5 per cent arc pressers.
I feel assured that a large number of pressers suffer froin the effects of
carbon monoxide poisoning; the majority are anspmic, and suffer from gastro-
intestinal and pulmonary disorders, and, though no statistics are obtainable,
many are treated in the dispensaries and privately for these conditions,
which, in my opinion are caused by the effects of carbon monoxide inhala-
tion, but which is not recognized as a cause.
In a modern loft building where the pressers' table was situated at a
window, gas irons in use, and natural means for ventilation relied upon,
over 1 part carbon monoxide, and 17 parts carbon dioxide per 10,000 volumes
were found at the breathing level of the pressers. In a similar loft where
mechanical means for ventilation were in use, but a trace of carbon mon-
oxide were found, and the carbon dioxide was only 7 parts. In converted
dwellings, 1^ parts of carbon monoxide, and 18 parts- carbon dioxide were
found at the pressers' tables, and in ce^llar shope over 2 parts carbon monoxide
were found. From the high percentages of carbon monoxide and carbon
dioxide found together at the pressers' tables, it is evident that the process
of pressing with gas irons is dangerous to health, for it is known that
when carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are combined, they seem to in-
crease the toxicity of each other, and can do injury in proportions in whicb
sinj^ly tliey would be less harmful.
It has been my purpose if possible, to secure physical examinations of
a number of the workers with a view toward determining the influence of
illuminating gas upon their health, especially as to whether there was an
anemia due to carbon monoxide, vitiated air, or general malnutrition.
Visits were made to a number of associations to which the pressers be-
longed, short talks were given regarding sanitation in the shops, and vol-
unteers were asked for to submit not only to physical examinations, but to
blood tests, for the purpose of demonstrating the effects of working in an
atmosphere of illuminating gas vitiation. Unfortunately this phase of the
investigation was not carried out.
The fact must not be overlooked that general shop conditions have a bear-
ing upon the health of the workers. The sanitary conditions of a shop
reflect not only the character of the proprietor, but of the workers. In
many shops toilets are filthy, floors dirty, and food refuse and cigarette
butts are scattered upon work tables and under benches. In other shops,
despite the efforts of the proprietor to keep his place sanitary, the toilets
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Repoet of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. r»7
are dirty and food refuse is scattered about. Such conditions can be pre-
vented through the individual worker observing the simple rule of hygiene,
personal cleanliness.
One cause for unsanitary conditions arises from permitting the sale of
food stuff and eating at the work tables during the working hours. In
many factories gas or gasoline engines are installed for furnishing power;
no mechanical means for ventilation are in use, and so fhe air becomes
vitiated from the products of combustion and carbon monoxide. Tests made
in a small shop situated near the river, and with splendid means for natural
ventilation, showed 15 parts carbon dioxide and a trace of carbon monoxide
when the gasoline motor was operated.
In the small shops in the old loft buildings and converted dwellings, no
dressing rooms* are provided owing to the lack of floor space. Such dressing
rooms as are found cannot even be called closets. They are rarely used,
and generally contain rubbish.
In the majority of the factories devoted to the industry, washing facilities
are a luxury, and but few have suitable wash rooms.
In many of the modem shops, and in all of the shops situated in the
older loft buildings and converted dwellings, beds and bedding were found
which are used by the watchman, and, upon inquiry, it was found that the
watchman works somewhere else during the day and uses the loft for his
bed room at night. Examination of some of the bedding showed that it
was not only unclean, but that in m-any cases vemiin were present.
A great difficulty to be overcome lies in securing general ventilation, for,
in the majority of cases, efforts to provide decent ventilation are rendered
futile by the action of .those intended to be benefited.
In the majority of the shops the males smoke and throw the butts of
cigars and cigarettes about. There is- not only danger of fire from this
habit, but danger from disseminating communicable pulmonary diseases
through the medium of the saliva and sputum soaked ends which have been in
the mouth, and are thrown on the floor there to dry up and fill the air
with dust and germs.
In the technical report submitted, and in my yearly report, remedial
measures applicable to the industry have been recommended, but without
the co-operation of the employer and employees they will be of small value
in making the industry a healthful one.
The majority of the workers are foreigners having but a small under-
standing of English, so that a great part of the remedy must be supplied
through a campaign of education beyond the domain of the Department.
III. FELT HAT INDUSTRY.
An investigation was undertaken for the purpose of determining the
danger from mercury poisoning to workers in the felt hat industry. In
order to understand more clearly the danger to which the workers are
exposed it is probably advisable to briefly consider the toxicology of mercury.
Metallic mercury is known chemically as hydrargyrum, hence its symbol
Hg., meaning literally " water silver " signifying that mercury looks like
silver and flows like 'water, a fact so well known that for ages it has been
termed quicksilver. The metal is obtained from mercuric sulphide (cinna-
bar), deposits of which are found in Spain, Austria, Russia, Italy, Mexico,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
58 New York State Department of Labor.
California and Texas; the production in the United States is about 1,900
tons annually.
According to authorities, the obtaining of mercury is one of the most re-
pulsive and dangerous occupations. Dr. Theo. Sommerfeld of Germany, Sir
Thos. Oliver, M.D., of Great Britain, and Dr. Putzeys of Belgium were ap-
pointed by the International Association for Labor Legislation, a committee
to prepare a list of industrial poisons. The subject of mercury is treated as
follows:*
Name of substance. Mercury, hydrargyrum. Hg. Silvery white, brilliant, not chancing in
atmospheric air, evaporating at ordinary temperatures.
Mercury alloys. Amalgams with gold, idlver, sine, tin, cadmium, lead, copper.
Mercury compounds. Ck>rrosive sublimate, mercuric oxide, nitrate, sulphate, chloride, fulminate
of meromy.
Industry where prepared or tued. Mining attacks one to two per cent of the workers; smelting
process 4 acks eight per cent of those engaged in it. It is used extensively in chemical factories,
extraction of gold and silver, gilding, mlvering and bronxing processes, filling of barometers, ther-
mometers, manometers, glow lamp industry, quicksilver air pumps, caps and explosives, silvering
of mirrors, manufacture of felt hats, dyeing of hair, calico printing, photography, preserving of
anatomical preparations and wood, etching on steel. [In this state I find that silver nitrate has
replaced mercury in the silvering of mirrors.]
Method of entrance into the body. As a vapor through the organs of req;>iration; through the
digestive tract by soiled fingers.
Symptoms 0/ poisoning. Inflammation of the gums and the mucous membranes of the mouth'
ulcers in the throat and mouth, inflammation of the jaw bone, necrosis of the jaw bones, loss of
the cflcium salts in bone thereby causing a deficiency in rigidity, derangement of the stomach
and intestines, weakness, emaciation, and anaemia. Dermatitis, pustules on the skin, disturbed
sensibilities, excitability, irritability, depression, hallucinations. The skin may be partly below
normal sensitiveness (anaesthema), or partly supersensiitve (hyperaestheua), there is diffioidty
of speech, exaltation of reflex action, palpitation, sexual function deranged in male and female:
tremors of hands and groups of muscles. Mercury cachexia showing itself in anaemia, emacia-
tion, atrophy of fat and muscles, relaxed sk'n. and want of appetite.
Prerentive measures. Leading off of the vapors, proper ventilation of the workrooms, pr^
vention of the spilling of mercury, daily cleaning of workrooms, personal cleanliness of workmen.
1 In case of poisoning. Hot baths and stimulants, good nutrition, arsenate or iodide of potasttum
ntemally.
Mercury begins to volatilize and give off vapor at 8.5** F. (1I5°C.), and
this property increases with heat; so it can be seen that workers who are
obliged to come into contact with mercury are ex'posed to danger of poison-
ing. The danger from mercurialism is not confined to acute attacks. There
may be nervous affections and paralysis resulting from chronic poisoning,
and there may be an hereditary influence exerted. Dr. Kussmaul of Fiirth
(in Untersuchungen Uber dem constitutionellen Mercurialismus) has given
the matter grave thought and reports that children born of women suffering
from mercurialism are feeble, rachitic and prone to tuberculosis. One case
is reported by Beugrand of an infant with congenital mercurial tremor. It
i^ reported that oliildren are healthy when bom of parents not working in
occupations where mercury is used, whereas children born of the same
parents after having been engaged in work where mercury was used are
diseased. Lize has noted this heredity among the children of hatters
(Lloyd). It is reported that women engaged at silvering mirrors with
mercury frequently abort.

Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 59
It is quite evident, then, that the danger from mercurialism is one of
grave import, and is deserving of careful consideration.
In the felt hat industry, the danger from mercurialism has been to those
workers engaged in handling the body of the hat, or the material entering
into its formation. The body is made of felted fur from coney, nutria, hare
and rabbit. The felt hat industry in this state is not an extensive one,
and really consists of associated industries, those of the hatters' fur makers,
the body makers, and the finishers.
Only one concern has a fur factory directly in connection with the felt
hat making. During the past few years, it has gradually ceased operating
this portion of the industry claiming that the stock can be imported much
cheaper than they can make it.
It is probably advisable to consider each industry separately, especially
as the greater danger from mercurialism is in the manufacture of the fur.
Hatters' Fur.
In the nwwi-ufajcture of hatters' fur the initial processes are cutting and
sorting. The dried skins are opened either by sharp hand knives, or circular
knives driven by power. The workers are all males, usually Slavs, Poles,
Italians and Greeks. The rooms devoted to this work are large and light,
as considerable space is required to sort the skins; however, despite the
large amount of cubic air space per person, the air is full of dust, consisting
mostly of fine hairs which are thrown off by the constant handling of the
dry pelts.
The p«lt8 are cleaned and the strong coar:5e hairs removed so as to leave
the fine fur. In handling expensive pelts such as coney and nutria, the hairs
are plucked by hand, the operators using a blunt knife. At present it is
not done in this state, though some years ago I recall having seen women
engaged in the work. At present, the majority of the manufacturers shear
the pelts by forcing the fur side against rapidly revolving blades of steel
which remove the coarse hairs but leave the fine silky fur. ^fany factories
employ women at the shearing machines.
The next process is the carroting of the fur and it is with this process
that the danger to the workers from mercurialism begins.
Carroting is an artificial method of increasing the felting property of
the fur by an operation which twists the fibres and raises the point of the
scales which surround it. The process is accomplished either by hand or
machine, and consists of thoroughly impregnating the fur with a solution
of nitrate of mercury. In the hand method, the pelt is laid on a bench fur
side up and scrubbed with a brush which has been dipped in the carroting
mixture. The carroting machine consists of a rapidly revolving circular
brush kept constantly wet by passing through a trough containing the car-
roting mixture. The worker presses the fur side of the pelt against the
revolving brush, and so impregnates the fur more evenly with the solution
than in hand work.
The impr^pQated pelts are then placed on trays and put into the carrot-
ing ovens where they are exposed to a high temperature for a short period,
after which they are taken out and removed to the drying rooms where they

are left for several days. They are then stored in bins, sometimes being
slightly sprinkled by a dilute acid solution, and left until ready to be cut.
After thorough drying the skins are again brushed to remove as much
du€t, dirt or coarse hairs tilmt may not have been previously oHminated.
The brushing is done by machinery, which in many plants is operated by
young women, principally foreigners.
The skins then pass to the cutting machines, which, through an ingenious
arrangement of rapidly revolving knives, shred the skin and leave the fur
coming from the machine intact; the fur is then examined, folded, placed
in bags, and either shipped direct to the hat factories, or sent to machines
for a more thorough cleansing and grading of the fur.
This process is called blowing, and the machines are quite long, enclosed
in glass or fine wire mesh ; the fur is placed in one en«l, and by means of a
travelling apron carried along through a series of revolving pickers which
tease the fur; a fan keeps blowing the teased fur about, and, through spe-
cific gravity, the dirt is removed and the fur graded into various bins. In
many of the hat factories, this process is carried on through a number of
machines so that a very fine fur, almost down-like is obtained.
This fur is then mixed with either raw stock or other stock both by hand,
and machine, the various proportions lieing trade secrets. The process is
an extremely dusty one, and none but males, usually foreigners, are engaged
in the work.
Fvur Hat Making.
The first process in the making of a felt hat is forming. This is accom-
plished by means of large machines driven by power; at one end of the
machine is a hopper which automatically weighs out the amount of fur
necessary for one hat, at the other end is a turntable upon which is
placed a perforated copper cone about three feet high. The turntable and
cone are enclosed by a cylindrical covering open at the top, and with side
doors to remove the cone. By means of an exhaust fan, the fur is drawn
through a series of pickers and sharp knives and deposited evenly upon the
surface of the revolving cone. After the fur has all been deposited upon the
cone, it is sprayed with hot water before removal, or after removal is dipped
into a tub of hot water. The cone shaped fur body is then carefully re-
moved from the copper cone, carefully examined, wrapped in a woolen cloth,
and hand hardened by expressing as much moisture as possible. These
bodies are then sent to the planking room for sizing and further hardening,
which is really the process of felting the fur and shrinking the body.
The term planking is dei"*ived from the fact that in the hand process a
large tub of hot water is surrounded by planks upon which are placed
burlap cloths. The plankers place the fur bodies upon the burlap and
sprinkle them with hot water; the bodies are then folded within the burlap
and gently rolled a few times, then opened and examined, this process being
repeated a number of times until the body of the hat is strongly felted or
hardened. This method is still in use, but the more modern sizing is ac-
complished by passing the body through a sort of wringing machine equipped
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Rbpobt of Bureau of Factory Tnsfeotion, 1911. 01
with grooved spiral rollers which work over a trough of boiling water. The
pressure is more even through such machines than in hand rolling.
The hats are then shaved to remove such hairs as have not been gotten
rid of in the planking process and is accomplished either by machines or
by hand. After shaving, the body is passed through a series of processes
whereby it is further reduced in size, stiffened, and blocked into shape. In
all the processes the work is decidedly wet, as large quantities of hot and
cold water are used, and the rooms filled with the vapor thus caused. All
the workers are males.
The bodies are now recognizable as hats, and are ready for dyeing and
finishing. For the derbies, the bodies are treated to a further coating of
shellac, which is forced into the hat under steam pressure, and the hat
placed in an oven for drying.
Felt Hat Finishing.
In finishing, the processes are many and varied; to describe each process
fully or technically would require many pages, especially as there is a dif-
ference between soft hat and derby liat finishing. Considering the proc^^sses
briefly, they all have to do with shaping the hat, smoothing the outside of
the body, curling the brim, and finally trimming.
The hat is first subjected to live steam, then placed in hydraulic machines
which block the crown into the desired shape. A water stiffening is applied
to the inside of the hat, it is dried, and then the hat is ironed to remove
all wrinkles or uneven surfaces. 'Jhc ironing in most pla^ses is done by
automatic gas iron machines.
The brims are then pounced, that is rubbed smooth by a sand papering
machine after which the hats are placed in a singeing oven to burn off
such hairs and fibre as have not been removed by pouncing. The hat is
then ready for the finisher.
The hat finisher places the hat on a revolving block called a lathe, and
with a piece of sand paper smooths off the whole hat. He then goes over
the hat with a cloth which has been dipped in hot oil or grease, and so
imparts a smooth fine finish to the body.
The hat is then ready for brim curling. The brim is first cut or shaved
to the desired width, the edges are tlien softened by a hot iron and curled
over, both shaving and curling being accomplished either by hand or by
machine. Ihe Imt is then placed on a hollow iron table heated by steam,
and covered with hot sand bags; this process is called flanging, and prepares
the brims for the final curl and pitch, this final process usually being ac-
complished by hand upon a board shaped like a hat brim, and called a set
board.
The final stage through which the hat passes is trimming. This is done
by females and consists of sewing on the binding, putting in the leather
band, and in some cases a lining. The hat is then ready for the market.
In the manufacture of soft hats, pouncing is a separate branch of the
finishing, being done by men called pouncers. Here the hats are placed on
a revolving lathe and subjected to sandpapering, the paper being held in
the hand of the operator.

Dangers in the Pbocesb.
In the manufacture of felt hat6 the principal danger has always been
considered to arise from the use of mercury, and though many authorities
have investigated the industry, analytical reports specific as to the actual
processes wherein the danger is most prominent are very meagre. It is
fully agreed upon that the danger from mercurialism begins with the pro-
cess of carroting the fur. In considering the industry, my observations
have not been confined to the question of mercurialism alone.
Starting with the first process in the manufacture of hatters' fur,
namely, opening and sorting the pelts, we find that organic dust, consisting
chiefly of fine hairs, fills the atmosphere of the rooms where such work is
carried on. In opening the pelts with a hand knife, the worker bending
over the pelts is exposed to the full force of the dust and hairs, whereas
th« operator at the machine knife is not exposed to quite so much dust.
It is noticeable that good general ventilation by mechanical means does not
remedy the condition, satisfactory results being obtained only where the
dust is removed directly from the point of origin by means of an exhaust
system.
To demonstrate the fact that during the process the workers are exposed
to the danger of inhaling the dust, a piece of gauze was placed over the
nose and mouth, and, after standing alongside of a worker (both hand and
machine) for about ten minutes, a small amount of felted fur was found on
the gauze. Here was proof of the danger as well as proof of the unservice-
ableness of using respirators in this sort of work, as the hair is partially
felted by tlie breath, and would mat and clog up a respirator thereby making
breathing diflScult.
The reeults of analyses of samples of air secured in opening and sorting
rooms showed as high as 1,700 particles of hair per litre of air, and the
bacterial count showed as much as 28 colonies of bacteria per litre of air.
In the shearing and brushing of the raw pelts the danger from dust is
not so marked, as the knives and brushes are completely enclosed. The
danger may, however, be entirely obviated by means of an exhaust system
connected with the machines and this method is pursued in some factories.
Many women are employed at this work.
In the carroting process the workers are all males. Here the amount of
dust in the air is slight, due to the process being a wet one, but nitric
acid fumes are present, and, where the carroting ovens are in the same
room, the high temperature and low humidity increase the danger from the
irritating acid fumes, and from the mercury, which volatilizes at a low
temperature; this is very noticeable as cold weather comes on.
The remedy for this condition is good general ventilation; analyses show
that in carroting rooms where mechanical means were used to remove
fumes and change the air, no mercury was found in the atmosphere. The
workers are foreigners and it was impossible to obtain any accurate infor-
mation. It was admitted in some places that the workers had suffered
from mercury poisoning in the form of the shakes, but the facts were not
definite, and there was a reluctance on the part of the workers to submit
to a physical examination. Where it was possible to examine the teeth

Repokt of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 63
remilts were negative as the workers were ignorant of personal hygiene, and
UMd tobacco, so that it was impossible to attribute the caries found specifi-
cally to mercury or nitric acid.
In many of the factories gloves are furnished the carroters, but they are
not kept in repair, so that they are worthless as a protection. To prevent
exposure of the workers to the fumes and heat of the ovens, one firm uses
the following method. After carroting, the skins are placed on a traveling
frame which passes through a long oven and delivers the dried skins at
the other end.
. After the skins have been carroted, the workers who handle them are
exposed to the danger of organic dust plus mercurial ism. In the brushing
of the fur the danger is eliminated by having an exhaust system connected
to the brushing machines, and nearly every factory is so equipped, but in
the case of the cutting machines there exists a difficult problem. These
machines are completely enclosed, there being just a small opening for tlm
pelt to enter and another for the fur to be delivered, and through the
rapidity with which the circular knives move, the dust is throwji to ibe
bottom by centrifugal force, and the fur is left intact. It is claimed that
to use an exhaust system in connection with the machine would destroy the
contour of the fur and lose considerable of the valuable product. It is re-
ported that ifn Great Brit-ain an efficient and practii-al exhaust system has
been connected to such machines.
In the cutting rooms the danger from mercurialism is due to the amount
of fur present in the air. The results of analyses show «that where the
amount of dust (especially hairs) was small, merely a trace, or no mercury
at all was found, but where the amount of dust was large, as high as 2.6
milligrams of metallic mercury per cubic meter of air were found.
Dr. Thorpe of the Britieh Governmental Laboratory reports finding 1.34
per cent nitrate of mercury in a sample of fur taken from a cutting ma-
chine. Inspector Vogt and myself secured a carroted skin weighing 65.243
grams, and analysis showed .0543 grams of nitrate of mercury present or
.0892 per cent. A complete fur cutting as it came from the machine was
next secured and weighed 35.5 grams, analysis showed .0482 grams of nitrate
of mercury' present, equal to about .0298 grams of metallic mercury. As
Dr. Thorpe does not state the total amount of sample of fur used in the
analysis, it is difficult to make proper comparisons especially as our findings
are very much less than his.
The operators of the cutting machines are females, and the examiners of
the fur as it is delivered from the machines are both women and young
girls, who are exposed to the very fine fluff which despite careful handling
is liable to ariie.
Inquiries made among these workers failed to elicit any information which
might indicate that any suffered from mefcurialism, and as a rule they
showed no external symptoms; the best proof is by means of a physical
examination being made, but this was impossible. Many are foreigners,
and though some appeared anaemic, it would be a difficult matter to declare
the anaemia due to mercurialism. The teeth as a rule seemed well taken

care of> though some of the gold fillings appeared as if there was a slight
amalgam present.
In the blowing room the danger from the dust is in the mixing and feed-
ing. The workers are all adults, few in number, and they do not remain
constantly in the blower or picker rooms. The machines are all encased
in wood or fine wire mesh, in order to prevent the loss of fur which is
valuable material. Analyses made of samples of air taken from such
rooms showed 21). 7 grtuns total solids in a million litres of air, of which
5.20 grams were organic matter. In one cubic meter of air 29 long fur
hairs and 170 small ones were found, while four milligrams of mercury
were found per million cubic meters of air.
In making the body of the hat there is an added danger from humidity,
due to vapors created by the hot water used on the cone and in forming the
hat. In this moist air the amount of dust is kept down, but in feeding
the fur into the hopper, the operators are exposed to the fine fluff, and in
many of the factories the hopper feeders are young women. While infor-
mation could only be obtained through inquiries, it would seem that the
effect of the work is deleterious to health. Analyses showed no mercury
present in the air and the amount of dust was very slight.
The operators at the cones are male adults and from general appearances
arc of line physique, this being quite evident as they usually wear very
little clothing owing to the character of the work and the high temperature
and humidity.
Afl reported by Jungtleish (Annales d^Hygiene, Dec, 1892), nearly .6 per
cent of metallic mercury was found in a layer of felt* deposited upon a
forming cone. This 9^ems ratlier high in comparison with our findings.
All replies to inquiries as to mercury poisoning were in the negative. In the
various processes through which the hody passes, such as planking, sizing,
slaving, stiffening, dyeing, and blocking, the workers are strong adult males
and are exposed to an atmosphere of high temperature, and vapors, due to the
extensive use of hot and cold water; in fact the work is such that the ope-
rators are at all times thoroughly wet. Analyses showed no mercury present
in the air and water taken from the tubs showed but a minute trace. That
very little nitrate of mercury is left in the body after passing through so
much hot water, can be readily understood when we consider that the nitrate
is about as soluble as ordinary table salt, and that the. metallic mercury is
volatile at a low temperature.
The majority of tlie workers are forei;:^ners and replies to inquiries as to
mercurialism were in the negative, but it was admitted that they suffered
from pulmonary affections and rheumatism. Some of the old operators said
thai in the old days some of the men did have the shakes but not now. This
may have been due to the fact that formerly metallic mercury was used and
solutions improperly made; the mercury formed a very insoluble combina-
tion with the keratin of the hair which was not removed in the processes
subsequent to carroting.
In the manufacture of stiff hats, such as derbies, the body Is shellaced.
Here the danger arises from tlie liability to intoxication from the ethers

and wood alcohol used, as well as danger from explosion of the highly in-
flammable, materials.
Jnftt how much danger the workers on the formed hat body are ezpoBed
to may be seen from the following analysis made of a completed body ready
for finishing. Weight of hat 65.3 grams^ amount of mercury present .0025
gr<aims which is akno-st infinitesimal. Jungfleish reports having found .7
per cent of mercury in a hat worn for some time. In my opinion there
was either an error in calculation or a typographical error in his report.
The workers engaged in the processes of finishing the hat are mostly
males and in many cases boys. The dangers incidental to these processes
arise from dust, temperature, humidity, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Many of the processes are carried on in the same room so that all the
workers are exposed to the same danger, irrespective of their particular
work. The most dangerous portion of the finishing process is the pouncing
and hand finishing. In this portion of the work a fine sandpaper is used
and the dust created contains quantities of a fine sharp glassy substance
known as silica. Many factories have exhaust systems attached to the
pouncing machines which minimize the danger. In some factories young
boys of poor physique operate the brim pouncing machines, unprotected by
exhaust systems. Analyses of the air in the vicinity of such machines
showed 80.2 grams per million litres of air. A further analysis of one
gram of this dust showed .01021 grams of silica present, and in an analysis
of some of the fioor sweepings a faint trace of mercury was found.
In the hand finishing there is danger not only from this dust, but also
from organic matter in the grease used, poisoning from carbon monoxide
from illuminating gas - used, possibly also, from mercury for, in analyses
of air taken at the breathing level of finishers in a few small shops, a trace
of mercury was found. In none of the factories are exhaust systems con-
nected with the finishers' tables.
Inquiries made among the finishers* failed to reveal any cases of mercury
poisoning, but a large number do suffer from pulmonary affections, and the
secretary of one association reports a number of cases of pulmonary tuber-
culosis. Mortality statistics show a large number of deaths among hat
finishers from phthisis and tuberculosis.
From a ouperficdfld examination of a numhefr of finishere, I found them of
good physique, but many had slight bronchial affections. Among the hand
finishers in the small shops in the large cities, I noticed a number were
ansemic, but could obtain no history of illness or make a physical examination.
In many of the factories boys and g^rls are employed in processes where
Oluminating gas is used for the purpose of heating apparatus and machines.
Analyses' of samples of air taken from such rooms showed as high as four
parts of carbon monoxide per ten thousand volumes. Many[ of the workers
complained of all the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, and Inspector
Vogt and myself felt the depressing effect of the vitiated atmosphere after
spending the day in such rooms.
In the trinuning rooms the workers are females and apparently in good
health. Analyses showed no mercury in the air, and a very small amount
of dust and organic matter present. What is needed mostly in these rooms
is' proper and sufficient ventilation.

Throughout the entire process of felt hat maldng from raw pelt to finished
hat, meals are brought into the various workrooms and eaten there, and
very little attention is given to personal cleanliness.
Sumnnarizung: — in the industry there seeane to be a danger present which
is not fully recognized, viz., that from dust and fumes. The danger from
mercurialism is, in my opinion, limited to the carroting, and handling of
the carroted product before forming the body of the hat; an intensive
analysis of the industry seems to demonstrate this fact.
Hitherto, it has been a disputed point as to which process of the industry
is mostly to blame for mercurialism. Many authorities claim that it is in
the carroting process, others in the finishing process, but the statistical
facts in proof thereof are rather meagre, 'ihat the danger has been ma-
terially decreased through the use of properly made nitrate of mercury is
quite evident. Formerly each furrier made his own nitrate of mercury
from pure metallic mercury and nitric acid, hence small globules of metallic
mercury became lodged in the fur, and so became a danger to all workers.
ThiB fact may account for the conditions reported by investigators of the
finishing processes some years ago, and even at the present time.
The investigation clearly proves that so far as the industry in this state
is concerned the danger from mercurialism greatly decreases when the body
of the hat leaves the forming machines, but that the danger from other
conditions increases. It has been thoroughly demonstrated that certain in-
fectious diseases are disseminated by means of hair, and that organic matter
is the medium for bacterial growth, ^^'e have then, in the industry, the
following dangers:
(1) Organic dust, increasing the danger through being irritating, insoluble,
poisonous, pathogenic.
(2) Poisoning from carbon monoxide.
<:{) Exposure to higli temperature, ^humidity and dampness.
In view of the foregoing facts, I would respectfully recommend the formu-
lation of regulations along the following lines.
Rbquiations fob the Employes.
There should be an attending physician at each factory.
All employees should be examined physically every six months, and before
returning to work after illness.
All cases of illness should be seen by a physician and if the result, d\
rectly or indirectly of the industry, should be recorded in a book accessible
to the Department.
A sufficient supply of wash basins (one to every five workers) with hot
and cold water, soap and hand brushes should be provided.
Time should be allowed for washing up before meals and before leaving
the factory.
Overalls should be provided for males, and aprons and head coverings for
females, the same to be discarded upon leaving the factory. Overalls, aprons
and head coverings should be washed once a week.
Rubber gloves and aprons should be provided for workers engaged in the
carroting? process, tho sami* to he ke])t in «»ood rc*j>air.

Report of Bureau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 67
No food Bbould be brougltt to, prepared or eeAen in, a room wliere any of
the processes are carried on. A room for meals should be specially set
apart for that purpose.
No person under eighteen (18) years of age should be employed in any
process or room where dust or fumes are freely given off, or where shellac
varnish is made or applied.
All work rooms should be ventilated by mechanical mean^ so that an
abundant supply of fresh air may be maintained.
Where dust is generated during the process of manufacture, an exlisust
system should be provided, consisting of hoods and piping connected to an
exhaust fan of sufficient power to remove all such dust at the point of origin
and in a direction away from the worker, the system to be operated during
the time work is carried on.
In all carroting rooms, artificial means for ventilation should be provided
and maintained to remove fumes from the ovens.
All floors should be of such material as to be easily subjected to removal
of dust by moist methods and should be cleansed daily.
The mixing of the carroting solution should be done in a special room
provided for the purpose, or after working hours.
All rooms where wet processes are carried on should have an impervious
floor and be properly drained.
Workers exposed to mercurialism should be alternately shifted to other
work bo as to lessen the danger.
Where illuminating gas is used to heat tools, apparatus or stoves, all
fumes, gases or vapors generated during the processes of manufacture where
such tooU, apparatus or stoves are used, should be removed from the point
of origin by means of properly installed exhaust systems.
Notices regarding the danger of poisoning from materials used, the symp-
toms, remedy and preventive measures should be posted in each work room
and dressing room, and in several langauges.
Regulations fob Employees.
Extreme cleanliness should be observed. Care should be taken to wash up
thoroughly before eating, and before leaving after finishing work.
All workers when at work should wear an overall suit and head covering,
which should not be worn outside the factory.
No food or drink should be brought into any of the workrooms. Meals
should be eaten only in the room provided for that purpose.
Workers should make use of such safeguards as may be provided by the
employer for the prevention of injuries or poisoning.
No worker should in any way interfere with the means and appliances
provided for ventilation or the removal of dust or fumes.
None but male adults should do any cleaning of the floors.
All workers should submit to a physical examination every few months,
and, if iU, should report at once to the physician.
Employees should become familiar with the symptoms of poisoning from
the materials used, and the means for prevention, as well as the remedy to
be applied.

KEPOKT OF THE TU:NNEL INSPECTOR.
Hon. John Williams,
Commissioner of Labor, Albany, N. Y.
Sib: I hereby submit my annual report as tunnel inspector
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1911.
Differing from previous years, the work was spread through the
State, necessitating much traveling, and was much heavier than
usual. In so far as was possible, a visit was made to each tunnel
once in three months, but due to the large number of tunnels and
their scattered location, all were not visited with this regularity.
Fifty-nine tunnels were in the course of construction, together
with five caisson contracts, having 184 pneumatic caissons. Two
of the fifty-nine tunnels were operated in sections under pneu-
matic pressure, but the pressure was very light, seldom reaching
fifteen pounds to the square inch above normal, and yet, in spite
of all medical examinations and precautions, two reported deaths,
due directly to air pressure, were received from one of these
tunnels. These were extraordinary cases, yet they show the
danger of the work, at even so low a pressure.
All of the pneumatic caisson work was divided between two
contracting firms who make a specialty of this class of work.
Realizing the dangers of the work, every perceivable precaution
was taken, and very few accidents were reported from this class
of work.
Aside from the general inspection of locks, valves, etc., the main
feature in this work is the hours of labor in air pressure. Work
in caissons and work in tunnels in air pressure are two entirely
different matters. In the former, due to the small air chamber,
the fluctuations in pressure are great — quite frequently the pres-
sure drops in a few seconds. This does not occur so rapidly in
tunnels, for there the air chamber is much larger. In caissons,
due to the small space and small air chamber, the temperature is
frequently high and invariably much higher than in tunnels car-
ried on under air pressure. For these reasons, mainly, the work in
pneumatic caissons is carried on under shorter hours than set
down by the State laws, which were framed with special regard to
tunnel work under air pressure.

Report of JJuufiAti of Factoky Inspection, 1911. 95
In the excavation of tunnels, three general methods were em-
ployed, the top heading and bench method prevailing; several
contractors holing through the entire tunnel with a top heading
and excavating the bench afterwards. In one tunnel, the bottom
drift and stoping method was employed. This last method re-
sembles the manner of excavation used in the Alpine tunnels of
Europe and caused considerable controversy among American
engineers. These methods, of course, were the outcome of several
reasons, mainly cost and the nature of the ground, but of the
three methods, holing through the tunnel with a top heading and
then taking out the bench, is, in my opinion, the safest for the
workers. All other conditions being equal, loose rock falling in
a small heading will actually not cause as much injury as falling
through a larger distance and furthermore, can be more easily
detected in a small top heading. So the final roof or the tunnel
will be more solid and less liable to falling rock when the bench
is taken out. Furthermore, after the top headings are holed
through, excellent natural ventilation is obtained while the remain-
ing excavation of the bench is carried on.
The majority of the heavy tunnel work is along the route of the
CatskiU Aqueduct for the. New York City water supply. The
most interesting and heaviest piece of tunnel work is that section
known as the Hudson River Syphon, the tunnel crossing under
the Hudson River at Storm King mountain.
This tunnel is carried on from the two deepest shafts in the
State. These shafts are located on the east and west banks of
the river at this point and are 1,140 feet deep. The rock in the
tunnel and also in the shafts at this depth is of a peculiar char-
acter. Although apparently solid and firm, it will, without notice,
shoot out from the roof and sides of the tunnel with a popping
noise like a gun shot, making a most dangerous place to work in.
This has been overcome by putting in steel roof and sides with
sheet steel lagging and carried as near to the heading as possible.
This steel timbering, as it is called, will remain when the txmnel is
being lined with concrete, differing from the wood timbering in
that respect, and making work safer while the concreting is going
on. At this depth several seams of water, under an enormous
pressure, were encountered. Work in the headings had to be
suspended because of this water on several occasions.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
96 New York State Department of Labor.
A concrete bulkhead was built about 100 yards from the heading
with an opening large enough to allow a muck car to pass through.
A large iron door was fastened to the bulkhead with proper re-
inforcing bracers, so that in the event of a serious inrush of
water, the workers could find safety behind the bulkhead and only
that part of the tunnel between the bulkhead and the heading
rould be flooded. A special power plant had to be erected in
i)rder to overcome these large seams of water. These seams were
grouted by means of hydraulic pressure, averaging 750 pounds to
the square inch.
In accordance with your ruling at the beginning of this year,
subway construction in New York City was regarded as tunnel
construction and duly inspected. This class of work at present
is quite large, employing on an average of 3,000 men, but will be
very much larger during the coming year. Here, I find the
greatest number of accidents occur from falling objects in general
— tipping buckets, falling timbers, falling tools, etc.
With a view to eliminating such accidents, as far as possible,
I have ordered proper coverings and properly guarded work places,
and orders along that general line, and in several cases, safety
hooks where open hooks were in use. This latter is of paramount
importance in subway work, and I would suggest an addition to
our rules requiring that no open hooks shall be used with a bucket
in hoisting, safety hooks only to be employed. This is also abso-
lutely necessary in shaft sinking, and I have frequently seen open
hooks in use in this kind of work.
Sanitation, especially in subway work, is another factor. In
my opinion, an article covering dry closets should also be added
to our existing laws.
During the past year, work was carried on from 35 shafts,
where the signals for hoisting and lowering of cages differed with
each contract. During the coming year, shaft work will be even
more extensive and a uniform code of signals, in my opinion, is
absolutely necessary. A committee appointed by the American
Mining Congress at Denver, Col., in November, 1906, to frame
uniform mining laws for the prevention of mine accidents, has a
rule in their laws containing a uniform signal code. I would
suggest the adoption of this code, permitting special signals in
addition to those in the code to be used, providing they do not in-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bueeau of Factory Inspection, 1911. 97
terfere with it in any way — to wit: One bell, hoist (when engine
is at r^t) ; one bell, stop (when engine is in motion) ; two bells,
lower; three bells, men on cage about to ascend or descend.
. Ladder-ways in shafts are a subject which is not directly
touched upon in our laws. In all our shafts we have ladder-ways
after the cages are put in and the headings are turned, but while
sinking the shaft, I doubt whether or not they can be ordered, and
when the shaft is several hundred feet in depth (as all new shafts
in New York City will be during the coming year) it is absolutely
essential that laddei>ways be provided and a rule should be in-
serted to this effect. According to a Legislative Act which went
into effect October 1st, 1910, all accidents occurring on construc-
tion or engineering work of any kind, should be reported to the
Department, and a record of such accidents reported shall be kept
by the employer in his office, in form prescribed by the Commis-
sioner of Labor.
I would suggest that an extra column be added to the sample
heading furnished to employers, headed: "Cause of Accidents.''
When inspecting the book in an employer's office, if this column
were added, it would aid considerably in making changes and
giving orders, with the object in view of lessening accidents of a
like nature.
Due to the new accident law, the number of accidents is much
greater than in any years past. Formerly, only those accidents
which caused cessation of work for five hours or more, were
reported, so this year, 3,289 accidents, of which 40 were fatal,
were reported. In so far as was possible, all fatalities were inves-
tigated immediately after receipt of such information.
During the year 65 inspections and 119 observations were made.
The number of men employed in this class of constniction work,
by quarters, was as follows: First quarter, 8,931 ; second 'quarter,
8,498'; third quarter, 8,425; fourth quarter, 8,fi20.
It pleases me to state that most of the contractors were very
willing to abide by all suggestions made, and to render whatever
aid they could to assist me in my inspection.
Eespectfully submitted,
(Signed) Gustav Werxer,
Tunnel Inspector.

EEPOET OF THE MINE INSPECTOR.
Hon. John Williams:
Commissioner of Labor, Albany, N. Y.
Sir: I beg to report to you on the conditions in mines and
quarries of the State and also in the factories where the products
of these mines and quarries are treated. My term of office as
mine inspector covers only that part of the present fiscal year from
May 10 to October 1.
During the year a total of 122 mines and quarries were in-
spect^ed, 107 by myself and the remainder by my predecessor.*
In addition, visits to ascertain whether orders had been complied
with nimibered 38 for the year, all of which constituted a part of
my work.
The table given below shows the prevailing causes of accidents
that it has been my duty to point out to operators and mine offi-
cials on my visits of inspection. The largest number of orders
issued to remedy certain defects does not prove that such defect,
neglect, or practice is the greatest cause of accidents, but merely
shows the number of operators that failed to comply with the
mining law regarding that particular condition or practice.

The greatest number of aoeidents were due to placing and
allowing men to work in the mines and quarries in places where
they were liable to receive injuries, without due care and proper
supervision over them by foremen whose duty it should be to see
that all places are fit for men to work in, just as it is their duty
to see that so much tonnage is hoisted or manufactured. The
employees also have contributed their share through n^ligence
and disregard of orders of foremen and rules of mine and mining.
Where the operators and foremen strictly enforce rules, accidents
are rare. There is one great disadvantage for the operator in
this state, compared with those of other states and European
countries, namely, that the mining law of the state and the special
rules prescribed by the Commissioner of Labor are binding only
on the employer, while the employee breaks the same with im-
punity. Dangerous practices will creep into mines, and the only
remedy the operator has is to dismiss offending employees. These
are a few of the offenses that, in my opinion, should be punishable
by fines in preference to dismissal :
1. Riding on loaded skip or on bail of skip.
2. PoBsessing or usikig metal tamping bar.
3. Thawing dynamite with other than proper thawing outfit.
4. Leaving loaded or unexploded charges in holes without notifying foreman
of incoming shift.
5. Neglecting to examine ground for unexploded or partially exploded
charges before drilling is resumed.
6. Storing caps or exploders with dynamite or powder,
7. Blasting when not specially designated as blaster,
8. Signalling when not authorized,
9. Crimping caps near explosives with teeth or with any tool other than
proper crimper.
10. Removing hand rails or guards from machinery or neglecting to replace
after repairs.
Eighteen corporations were ordered to pay wages of their em-
ployees weekly. Four corporations were ordered to pay their
employees in cash and without any store deductions.
Two mines were ordered to provide more than one outlet, for
safety as well as for better ventilation. On the whole, ventilation
in all mines was good.
Ample timber was supplied to all mines, but I found some
underground foremen somewhat lax in their inspection of re-

timbering after blasts and aba in inspecting the headings after
the steam drillers and roofmen. They are inclined to forget that
they are always responsible to see that the work is properly done.
Owing to the fact that the state has no explosive law, I found
explosives often stored in unsuitable buildings and locations —
some close to dwellings, boiler houses and shaftheads. Much of
this has already been remedied. Many have concrete buildings
erected at safe distances from men and are comparatively safe
even should the contents explode. Since previous inspection one
magazine in Jefferson County was fired at with a rifle, and three
bullets penetrated the outer door of ^/4-inch iron and half way
through the 3-inch hard wood lining.
There are a variety of crude and dangerous ways U5ed to thaw
dynamite. Some use a coal or wood stoye. Some use live steam ;
some use double vessels, and those in some cases put over a fire.
There is some difiiculty in recommending the same system to
large and to small users of dynamite. I consider the water heater
system the safest means for thawing large quantities.
A considerable number of small operators were negligent in
having their boilers inspected and also in sending to the Depart-
ment a copy of the inspection reports. Some, because their boilers
were in bad condition, and they had no desire to make it knovm.
Regarding blasting and blasters, I found much irregularity,
especially among the smaller operators. Time was taken to ob-
serve their methods of blasting and to correct some old blasters
who still think that, having escaped with their lives for many
years, it is safe to tamp charges of dynamite with a crowbar, iron
bolt and hammer, or a steam pipe with wooden plug in the end
of it and a few nails driven in that to keep it from wearing. It
is hard to convince them, and, as pointed out to the employer, it
is often best to appoint a blaster in place of such. It is almost
impossible to change the habits of an old blaster. I believe every
operator should post at his mine or quarry the names of the
" specially designated blasters " in his employ, and that these
persons be first approved of by the mine inspector as competent
The publication and free circulation of handbooks of instructions
relative to storage and handling of explosives and exploders and

blasting, will, I have no doubt, help to educate the men and pre-
vent many accidents.
Regarding the reporting of accidents, I found a great tendency
among the amaller operators to report only serious accidents.
Many operators of mines are improving their traveling ways
to mines, particularly those with inclined shafts, by replacing
ladders with stairs and handrails and, where practical, running
the pathway through disused chambers.
There are some dangerous conditions in mines arising from
possibility of skips or cars running away on inclines and killing
men employed on mine floor. These conditions are being rectified
by automatic stop blocks and by advancing shafts below working
floors, thereby forming a pocket for possible runaway skips.
I found no boys under sixteen years of age working in mines.
Considerable progress has been made in providing sanitary
closets and washrooms for the men. Some operators are very
doubtful whether washrooms would be appreciated. Why not
educate the men? At the mine of the Hudson Iron Company,
Fort Montgomery, the miners can be seen every evening rushing
for the washroom. At this mine, lockers are provided for the
men. The building is steam heated and equipped with sinks and
hot and cold water. In an adjoining room is a shower bath.
Machinery in factories in connection with mines and quarries
was not well guarded, with tendency to put up frail guards and
handrails, flimsy wooden brackets instead of firm iron bands or
sut)stantial box covers for gears.
I received every facility for inspecting all mines, quarries and
factories from operators and their agents, and my recommenda-
tions were generally complied with immediately.
Respectfully submitted,
(Signed) William W. Jones,
Mine Inspector.

Work of Deputy Mercantile Inspectors (Table 1).
Three years have elapsed since the Department of Labor has
been charged with the enforcement of the provisions of Article XT
of the Labor Law in cities of the first class, namely, New York,
Buffalo and Eochester. There have been 31,487 inspections and
observations made, as follows :

While we have succeeded in covering all sections of the three
cities, we have not inspected all places under the jurisdiction of
the bureau. We have not been able to perform our work as syste-
matically as we would wish, eight inspectors being too small a
force to cope successfully with the existing conditions. The dis-
trict assigned to the deputy mercantile inspector is too large to be
properly or satisfactorily covered. Business offices have received
very little attention in comparison to their number. An estimate
of what little has been accomplished in offices can be made by com-
paring the numl>er of inspections and observations made witb

those made in mercantile and other establishments during the last
three years, which were as follows :
Mercantile, etc 30»573
Businees ofl&oes D14
A large percentage of the latter number represents the telegraph
oflSces and those engaged in the distribution or transmission of
merchandise^ articles or messages. This is an average of about
300 per year, which means that the work as far as offices are con-
cerned has scarcely been started.
We have had numerous inquiries from dififerent sources as to
the nmnber of mercantile establishments and business offices in
cities of the first class, and the number of their em,ployees. There
is considerable surprise and disappointment when we state we
cannot furnish the figures. In three years we have not been able
to inspect all of the mercantile establishments, to say nothing of
business offices. We have been compelled to reinspect many es-
tablishments where they persist in violating the law. In the past
year there were 5,282 inspections and 3,715 observations made;
2,603 hours consumed in appointments, patrol and miscellaneous,
and 3,363 hours were spent prosecuting the 550 cases commenced
during the year.
The work of a deputy mercantile inspector cannot be judged by
the number of inspections made. The inspectors are compelled to
be in their districts before 8 a. m. and after 7 p. m., that they may
discover violations relative to the employment of children before
8 a. m. and after 7 p. m. They must also be in the district after
10 p. M. in order to secure evidence regarding the employment of
females between 16 and 21 years of age after that hour.
The amendment regarding places of amusement and bowling
alleys which went into effect October 1, 1910, has compelled the
deputies of the bureau to do considerable night work. It is use-
less inspecting such places at any other time. The number of
violations of child labor in such places, found during the past
year, as shown in this report, justifies placing these establish-
ments under the supervision of the Department of Labor.
Complaints (Table 5).
During the year 222 complaints were received, as compared
with 149 in 1910, TWe were 141 which were si^ed by the per-

son making complaint and 81 were anonymous. In each instance
where the name and address of the complainant were given, they
were communicated with and informed of the result of our inves-
tigation. There were 122 sustained and 100 not sustained.
Wash Rooms and Water-Closets.
The amendment to section 168, which went into effect October
1, 1911, and which eliminates the words "where women and
children are employed/' thus making the section apply to all mer-
cantile establishments, has greatly improved this section and will
enable the bureau to compel the installation of proper toilet fa-
cilities in many establishments where formerly we had no power
to remedy unsanitary conditions.
This section should be further amended so that provision may
be made for proper lighting of water-closets whenever necessary.
This is essential in order to keep closets clean,, and the provisions
of this section should be extended so as to include business oflSces,
telegraph offices, restaurants and hotels, as in many such places
the condition is anything but satisfactory, and in some there are
no toilet facilities.
We issued 1,788 orders regarding water-closets during the year,
and 1,881 compliances were secured. The excess number of com-
pliance over orders, includes some orders issued in the latter part
of the previous year. There were 82 orders issued for wash
rooms; 31 compliances were secured.
'Seats for females.
During the year we issued 58 orders to provide seats for fe-
males, and secured 58 compliances. It was necessary to prosecute
two employers before seats were provided after order had been
issued by this bureau. In both instances they pleaded guilty and
were fined $20 each. Since the organization of the bureau these
are the first instances where it was necessary to resort to prosecu-
tion to secure a compliance with section 170. We received 12
complaints regarding seats; 6 were sustained and 6 were not sus-
tained. This section of the law is generally complied with, but
there is considerable diificnlty regarding employees being per-
luittod to use the seats after they are installed, Although s^ats
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Report of Bureau of Mercantile Inspection, 1911. 425
are provided, their use is prohibited in somie establishments; but
this state of affairs is gi-adiuilly changing and employers are seeing
the wisdom of permitting a female employee to be seated when not
engaged waiting on customers. Where chairs or stools are used
it is a difficult matter to keep them in the location required in
order to comply with the law. If the section was amended giv-
ing power to the bureau to order a proper adjustable seat, per-
manently secured at a definite location, it would be much more
satisfactory to the em5)loyer and avoid much annoyance to them
and this bureau. Some employers provide boxes and claim that
they are a compliance with the law, as this section reads " chairs,
stools or other suitable seats." Then the question confronts us
as to what is meant by the words " or other suitable seats."
Ventilation.
Section 171 provides that "women and children shall not be
employed, or permitted to work in the basement of a mercantile
establishment " unless permission is granted by the Commissioner
of Labor. Such permission must be granted if the basement is
sufficiently lighted and ventilated and in good sanitary condition.
It is questionable whether some of the basements are properly
ventilated, or that a proper standard of ventilation is maintained
at all times. During the year we have made some air tests on
floors other than basements, in mjercantile establishments. These
tests were made in order to compare these floors with the base-
ment, which is the only part of the building in which we have
any authority to require ventilation. We found in basements
where there are proper mechanical means of ventilation, that the
air was better than on the other floors of the building. When we
consider the large number of employees in many of the mercantile
establishments, it seems that all parts of such establishments
should be properly ventilated, in order to protect the health of the
employees.
The present law authorizes the Commissioner to refuse permis-
sion for the use of basements when the same are not sufficiently
lighted and ventilated and in good sanitary condition. In all cases
where we have refused permission to use the basement because of
insufficient ventilation, it was after we had made air tests and
found the air conditions below the standard set by recognized
Digitized by VjOOQIC
426 New York State Department of Labor.
authority. In view of the fact that the law does not set a standard,
it becomes a question of dispute between the proprietor and this
bureau. Were we to prohibit the use of basements it would be
considered unjust and arbitrary, and it is questionable whether the
courts would sustain the bureau in its judgment as to what is a
proper air standard in basements.
I would recommend that this section be amended so as to pro-
vide a definite standard of air conditions, and giving power to the
Commissioner of Labor to order proper means of ventilating such
establishments when necessary after proper air tests had deter-
mined that such premises were below the standard set by law and
injurious to the persons employed. If such an amendment were
mlade it would be well to eliminate the provision of making the
use of basements where women and children are employed contin-
gent oh permission from the Commissioner of Labor to use said
basement.
Child Labor (Table 2).
The illegal emplo^nnent of children in mercantile establish-
ments, business offices, places of amusement and bowling alleys is
a problem that requires the constant attention of the inspectors of
this bureau.
During tbo past year there were found legally employed 2,258
children under sixteen years of age; illegally employed 421 under
fourteen years, and 1,154 between 14 and 16 years without
employment certificates, making a total of 1,575 illegally
•employed, or 41.1 per cent of the total 3,328 children found
employed. This is a very large percentage but it shows a decrease
from each of the previous years, as will be seen from the following
table:

These figures are interesting if we stndy them carefully. We
find that the number of inspections for the year 1909-1910 were
27.6 per cent less than 1908-1909, while the number of all chil-
dren found employed for the same year was 20 . 3 per cent less and
the percentage of children ill^ally employed practically remained
the same, falling from 61.4 to 49.0 per cent. Comparing the
inspections made in the years 1909-1910 and 1010-1911, they
remained about the same, being 27.6 per cent less for 1909-1910,
and 26.9 for 1910-1911, than in 1908-1909; while the number
of all children employed dropped 20.3 in 1909-1910, and 36.9 in
1910-1911, from the number found employed in 1908-1909.
During the same period the percentage of children illegally em-
ployed dropped from 51.4 per cent in the year 190^1909, to 49.0
per cent in 1909-1910, and to 41.1 per cent in 1910-1911, show-
ing a falling off of 10.3 per cent between the year 1908-1909 and
1910-1911, although the amendment to the law regarding places
of amusement and bowling alleys which went into effect October
1, 1910, increased the jurisdiction of the bureau as to the employ-
ment of children to the extent that during the past year the num-
ber of children found erriployed in places of amusement and bowl-
ing alleys amounted to 11.6 per cent of all the children found
illegally employed. The improvement regarding the illegal
employment of child labor in mercantile and other establishments,
mentioned in section 161, has been considerable. To what extent
it has improved would be hard to estimate, as we cannot completely
cover the district in one year. While the figures of the bureau
show an average for the three years of 47.1 per cent of children
illegally employed, it is safe to assunto, from the experience of
this bureau, that the percentage would be well over 41.1 per cent,
as shown for the past year, if we had a sufficient number of inspec-
tors to cover the territory and inspect all places. It is questionable
if this large percentage of illegal child labor can be decreased until
the bureau is provided with an adequate force of inspectors.
Hours of Labok.
There were issued during the year 298 orders to cease employ-
ing children before 8 a. m. or after 7 p. m., more tlpn nine hours
a day or 54 hours per week, and 309 compliances were secured.

There were 394 orders issued to cease employing females from 16
to 21 years, more than ten hours per day or sixty hours per week,
or after 10 p. m., and 416 compliances were secured. There has
been an increase in the numjber of orders issued during this year
over each of the previous years, r^arding hours of labor both for
children, 14 to 16 years, and females, 16 to 21 years, and while
we have about the same ratio of compliances it must be borne in
mind that the compliances are reported by the inspector after
his second visit and he has questioned the employees regarding the
hours of labor. In many instances they claim there has been a
change in the hours when there has been no change. They do this
in fear of losing their positions. During the year we have not
secured evidence in any violation for more than ten hours per day,
or more than sixty hours per week. In such cases we must rely on
the testimony of the ennployee \mless the inspector can prove that
he has watched the employee for more than ten hours of any day,
or sixty hours of any week. The reason why the employees do not
furnish evidence regarding such violations is obvious. If they
are working after 10 p. m. it is easy for the inspector to prove the
violation. During the year there have been 28 such cases prose-
cuted, but even in cases of this kind the defendants resort to all
kinds of defences, frequently claiming that the girl was through
work and would not go home. Even in such cases an inspector
must prove that the girl was actually engaged in selling merchan-
dise after 10 p. m. In cases where childron are employed before
8 a. m. and after 7 p. m., similar defences were resorted to such
as claiming that the boy was waiting for his mother or an older
brother, or that he was through work at 7 p. m. but would not go
home. For violation of employing children before 8 a. m. or after
7 p. m. we prosecuted 138 cases. In view of the excessive hours
worked by females in many mercantile establishments, and the
difficulty that confronts us to compel a compliance with this section
of the law, I would renew the recommendation made in the report
of 1910 as to amending section 161, so as to shorten the period in
which females 16 to 21 years of age are permitted to perform ten
hours' work on all days other than Saturday ; that no female be
employed nor permitted to work more than six days or sixty hours
in any one week ; and that there shall be posted in a conspicuous

place a notice stating the number of hours per day for each work^
ing day of the week, and the time such work begins and ends
each day.
Pbosecxjtions (Table 4).
On October 1, 1910, there were pending in court 36 cases, all
of which have been disposed of during the year ; 5 were disinissed
or acquitted in Special Sessions, 16 pleaded guilty and sentence
was suspended, 5 were convicted and sentence suspended, 8
pleaded guilty and were fined, 2 were convicted and fined. The
total amount of fines was $205. During the year 1911 there were
presented to the courts 550 cases for prosecution ; in New York
City, 414; Buffalo, 128; Rochester, 8. 479 of these were dis-
posed of during the year, leaving 71 pending October 1, 1911.
The violations and results of such prosecutions are shown in
Table 4 above; 48 were dismissed by magistrates; 18 acquitted
in Special Sessions; 1 withdrawn (def aidant died) ; 233 pleaded
guilty and sentence was suspended; 76 pleaded guilty and were
fined; 66 were convicted and sentence was suspended; 37 were
convicted and fined; amoimt of fines imposed $2,455, making a
total of $2,660 in fines imposed during the year. While there
were more cases disposed of this year than last, there was $705 less
in fines imposed. In 453 of the 515 cases disposed of during the
year, the evidence was conclusive, that is, the defendants either
pleaded guilty or were tried and <;onvicted ; yet in only 133 cases
were fines imposed. Of the cases begun during the year, 11 were
alleged as second offenses; 6 under fourteen years; 4 without
employmient certificates and 1 employing female between 16 and
21 years after 10 p. m., and one was allied as third offense of
employing child under fourteen years. These figures show that
enforcement of the law has not received the support from the
courts that it should, and it is questionable if a proper compliance
with the provisions of the law can be establshed until the courts do
their part.
In connection with bowling alleys and places of amusement it
would be well to state that before we began to prosecute for the
illegal employment of children in these places, we commimicated
with the manager of each theater in cities of the first class, and
jii9 peveral liquor d^^lers' ^s^ociatious i» web of the said Q\\m^

advising the latter to inform all their members of the requirements
of the law and stating that if violations of the law were found on
and after a certain date, the persons employing such children
would be prosecuted. Notwithstanding these measures, taken to
acquaint the proprietors of these establishments with the provi-
sions of the law, there were found 184 children illegally employed,
in the 357 places of amusement and bowling alleys inspected, as
follows :
Undbr 14 YsAiDi. 14-1* Years.
Boyj. Girls. Boys. Girls. Total.
Places of amusement 15 2 63 2 72
Bowling alleys 88 74 112
Total 53 2 127 2 184
During the year there were presented to the court 59 cases for
violation as to the employment of children under 14 years and
after 7 p. m., in bowling alleys. In Buffalo: 21 violations, the
result being that 15 were convicted, 5 pleaded guilty, none of
which were fined ; and in one case the defendant was discharged.
Rochester : 5 violations, one fined and 4 dismissed, although the
e\ddence was sufficient to convict the defendants in each case.
Xew York City : 33 violations, 5 dismissed by a police magistrate,
4 acquitted in Special Sessions, 9 pleaded guilty or were convicted
and fined, 10 pleaded guilty and sentence was suspended, and 5
are pending.
Another instance of the poor support given tho law by the courts
is shown in the condition of the public markets in the city of
Buffalo. In two of these markets we found, during the past year,
84 children illegally employed, 40 under 14 years and 44 with-
out employment certificates, and a large nimiber with employment
certificates working after 7 p. m. In these two markets we brought
45 prosecutions against employers, and although all either pleaded
guilty or were convicted, fines were imposed in only fourteen
cases, amounting to $280, the result being that the conditions
have not improved very much because the people doing business
in the markets do not regard prosecution for violation of the law
seriously, for when taken to court they are usually permitted to
leave without a penalty being imposed. Returning to their place
of business thev are readv to take another chance at violating the

Repoet of Bubeatt of Mebcantile Inspection, 1911. 431
law. This is very discouraging to the inspector who is endeavor-
ing to enforce the law, especially when this bureau is compelled
not only to secure evidence of age of the child, but are compelled
to prove just what labor the child was performing, in order to
establish a violation. There were 3,363 hours consumed in prose-
cuting the 550 cases presented to the courts during the year, or an
average of 6.11 hours per case.
Fire Prevention.
In the report of the last year attention was called to the inade-
quate means of escape in case of fire, in many mercantile estab-
lishments. That report was written previous to the disastrous fire
in the Asch Building in Xew York City, where 146 persons lost
their lives. This terrible catastrophe focused public opinion
on the present existing conditions, resulting in the passage of the
law creating the Fire Prevention Bureau in Xew York City.
This bureau will have jurisdiction in all buildings other than
tenement houses. This gives some hope that in New York City, at
least, the existing conditions relative to mercantile establishments
may be remedied in the near future, while no provisions are made
for the other cities of the state. In mercantile establishments the
employees and patrons within the building equal or outnumber the
employees in many of the largest of our factories. In these mer-
cantile establishments the peril from fire or panic is ever present,
with possibility in case of fire in such places, that the loss of life
in the recent factory fires would be small, in comparison to the
number that might be lost or injured by fire or panic in some mer-
eantih^ establishments.
Eespectfully submitted,

EEPORT OF THE CHIEF MEDIATOR
Hon. John Williams,
Commissioner of Labor, Albany, N. Y.
Sib: I have the honor to present the following report of the
work of the bureau of mediation and arbitration for the fiscal
year ending September 30, 1911.
Under the supervision and direction of the Commissioner of
Labor this bureau exercises the powers of the people of the State
of New York, as defined by statute, which relate to industrial
disputes.
The chief power of the bureau is seldom exercised but is avail-
able at any time when, in a threatened or existing strike or lockout,
the Commissioner of Labor deems it advisable that the board of
mediation and arbitration be convened. The board when so con-
vened has large powers of inquiry and should be able to direct
public sentiment on which the success or failure of strikes so
largely depends. It is evident that the Legislature did not intend
this formal inquiry to be made except in extraordinary cases where
the public interests are seriously affected.
The bureau has a growing influence in the sentiment of disputes
by mediation. This work is of great importance and certain com-
parative statistics are herewith presented to illustrate the activity
of the bureau, so far as such work can be shown in statistical
form. It should be borne in mind that the results of such work
cannot be fully stated by the number of " settlements effected,"
because in such number can be included only those cases in which,
the bureau's efforts were clearly the immediate means of settle-
ment. This necessarily means that all those cases in whieh the
bureau's efforts may have contributed to the final settlement in
any d^ree inside the limit of being a primary means of settle-
ment, must be excluded. Further, the edueational effect which
may attach to any effort for settlement of disputes is, of oaurse,
wholly beyond any statistical measurement.

Partly because statistics do not fully measure the value of the
work of the bureau, but chiefly because of the industrial impor-
tance of the disputes themselves, and to illustrate the methods of
intervention, the bureau's efforts for settlement in several of the
chief disputes of the year are recounted in full in the pages
following the statistical summaries.

t To September 30, 1911.
The average labor dispute this year has not involved nearly so
many men as last year, when 250 disputes involved a total of
about 207,000 men, while this year 215 disputes involved about
94,000 men. There was a small diminution in number of disputes,
but a large decrease in the number of men involved. The aggre-
gate number of days lost was little over one-third as much as
during the preceding year. The total number of working days
lost was greater, however, than in any year except last year since
1905.

given grievance, but the aggregate time lost in those disputes.
Judging by both these standards the principal causes of industrial
unrest during the year were the issues of " shorter hours," " in-
creased wages," " trade unionism " and " working arrangements."
It is interesting to note that these same issues were the prevail-
ing causes of strikes last year.

The same trades were in general affected by strikes and in about
the same proportion as in 1910. The most numerous disputes
were as usual in the building, metal, clothing, transportation and
leather industries. The principal disputes affecting these trades
were in !New York City, and included building trade disputes,
involving sheet metal workers, structural iron workers and marble
workers, express drivers' and chauffeurs' strikes, a general move-
ment by machinists for a shorter working day, by boilermakers for
increase in wages and by boilermakers of the New York Central
railroad against piece work, by shoe workei's and trunk makers,
and disturbances in the clothing trades. These disputes not only
involved a large number of men, but lasted for several weeks, and
in some cases for several months, which accounts for the large
aggregate of working days lost in these industries.

The number of strikes won or compromised to some advantage
to the workmen is slightly greater than the number of strikes lost.
This does not show the whole truth, however, in regard to the
alleged efficacy of the strike as a means of promoting the welfare
of workmen. A subsequent table shows that many of the disputes
involving the largest number of workmen were won or compro-
mised, while most of the strikes lost were those engaging a
relatively small number of workmen. Many strikes both large
and small which were untimely or ill advised were lost because
of such weakness. This goes to show that the more consideration
given to avoiding strikes the more likely those finally undert.iken
are to be successful. On the other hand we must not overlook the
economic waste of strikes caused by loss of wages to workmen,
loss of production to the community and weakening of resources
of employers, so that in many cases the latter are forced to curtail
their business. Where strikes occur without exhausting every
effort to prevent them, or for insufficient cause, the evils they
bring are to be blamed upon the workmen or employers who arc
responsible for the hasty action or the ill-advised decision.

As in the preceding table these figures do not show all the f act^
in the case. Many strikes or lockouts occur and are settled almost
immediately before mediation of any sort can be offered. Many
small strikes do not reach the attention of the bureau until after
1910.

a settlement has been effected, even after a considerable period
of time. In other cases the mediators of the bureau are all en-
gaged in dispute of importance and small strikes are necessarily
neglected. It will be seen by a later table that the bureau has
been active in mediation of all the important disputes and that
in reference to number of men involved and aggregate number
of working days lost the proportion of disturbances in which the
bureau has taken an active part is much larger than is shown
simply by the number of successful efforts at mediation. Local
efforts at mediation by individuals and private Organizations show
a very small measure of success as compared with the work of
the state bureau of mediation and arbitration, whose experience
and authority naturally give it the lead in this work.
Trade or industrial agreements are recognized by most author-
ities as the best preliminary safeguard against labor disturbances.
The growth of the trade union movement and the improvement in
methods of management of the imions themselves are responsible
largely for the increase in number of working agreements entered
into between employer and the employed. That trade agree-
ments are frequently broken is unfortunately true. They are fre-
quently disregarded both by workmen and employers. This must
create some distrust of such agreements, and many men say that
they are without value on this account. The experience of this
bureau is that trade agreements in general are well observed,
especially in the trades best organized. That is to say, both em-
ployers and workmen in the trades where the union organization
is oldest and firmest show little if any inclination to disregard
their pledges. As time goes on and the strength of trade organiza-
tions is improved among employers and employees, the trade agree-
ment will bear fruit in lessened disturbances. • Experience in un-
wise, ill-considered strikes will tend to promote more careful con-
sideration by employers and more conservative leadership by the
trade union officers to avoid disastrous and unnecessary disputes.
The bureau endeavors to collect and publish in its final report the
trade agreements intered into during the year. The growth of a
sentiment for arbitration of disputes is shown in the fact that
most recent agreements contain clauses providing for arbitration.

The following comparison of interventions and list of disputes
in which interventions occurred are given to show the special
activity of the bureau. A few disputes are settled by direct media-
tion of the bureau, without any formal conferences being arranged
and without direct intervention in attempting to bring the parties
together. Quite frequently a strike is so apparently hopeless of
settlement by compromise or by continued efforts that the officers
of the bureau feel obliged to advise the party in error to close
the controversy, without the formality of a conference. Where
this advice is accepted as quite frequently happens, the bureau's
intervention is as successful from the public standpoint as in
cases of compromise or formal settlement.

Appended to this report is a tabular summary of all the year's
interventions.
The year has shown a rather unusual proportion of strikes on
public service and quasi public service corporations, though the
disputes involving railroads have been relatively inconsiderable
from the standpoint of interruption of traffic. The great express
strike, the chauffeurs' strike, the Xew York Central signalmen's
strike, the New York Central boilermakers' strike, the Brooklyn
trolley strike and small disturbances in the New York City de-
partment of docks and ferries, as well as threatened trouble among
the longshoremen and strikes of employees in the coastwise steam-
ship traffic and of maintenance-of-way employees of the D., L. &
W. railroad, have all shown the importance of considering govern-
mental relations to disputes affecting corporations engaged in
the public service. The bureau of mediation and arbitration has

exercised considerable influence in pre>renting the spread of strikes
and in bringing about a speedy adjustment of those strikes which
affected the public. It has not been necessary during the year
for the Commissioner of Labor to exercise his present powers of
investigation through the state board of mediation. Laws pro-
viding for compulsory arbitration or mandatory investigation be-
fore a strike is legal, are in effect in Canada, Australia and New
Zealand. The great body of labor organizations in New York
are opposed to such legislation on the groimd that our constitu-
tional guarantees would be infringed if workmen were compelled
to continue at work against their wishes; and most employers
of labor also oppose such legislation as an infringement of their
natural or chartered rights. The bureau is making a study of
public opinion on this subject, corresponding with various civic
and industrial bodies of employers and of employees, and will
make a report of the result of its investigation.
We would recommend for legislation at present only an
amendment to the Labor Law to secure immediate information
to the bureau from the responsible public officers in the city and
county police service, of any strike or lockout in their jurisdiction.
Our present reliance must be placed on news reports and chance
information or requests from the parties to disputes. Thus a small
disturbance might easily be remedied, but by failure of having
notice of the disturbance the bureau may be unable to act until
a serious condition exists involving a vast economic waste.
The subordinate officers of the bureau of mediation and arbitra-
tion are doing satisfactory work. The salaries of two assistant
mediators should be increased to $2,000. Mediators of the bureau
are field agents, and are occupied practically all the time in active
intervention work. The bureau needs the services of an efficient
secretary to insure systematic records of strikes and lockouts and
the measures taken to prevent and settle labor difficulties, and to
have charge of the office in the absence of the field officers. Much
valuable information and material for study is now lost through
lack of such service. The published reports of the bureau in the
annual reports and quarterly bulletins of the Department repre-
sent to the people of the state the main source of information

regarding industrial di&turbaiLoes in the greatest industrial com-
ZDonwealiJiL Our reports should be broadened and strengthened^
as can only be done by an officer having that special duty.
In concluding my first annual report as chief mediator I desire
to express my thanks and appreciation to the Commissioner of
Labor and the officers of the Department of Labor for their assist-
ance and co-operation.
Very respectfully,
(Signed) William C. Rogers,
Second Deputy Commissioner of Labor.

SPECIAL ACCOUNTS OF INTERVENTIONS.
Boilermakers' Strike, New York Central Lines.
The strike of boilermakers on the New York Central lines
which began on February 20, 1911, was one of the most important
disputes of the year. Originally caused by the introduction of
piece work in the main boiler shop of the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern railroad at Collinwood, Ohio, the strike immediately
spread throughout the N. Y. C. system. By July 22 the company
claimed that the men's places were largely filled to their satisfac-
tion. The strike has not been declared oif, and is still somewhat
effective at a few points at this date (November 2), and the union
leaders still hope for a settlement of the difficulty.
In May, 1910, the Lake Shore railway entered into a written
trade agreement with the boilermakers of that railroad, similar
agreements being in force on the New York Central and Hudson
River railroad and the other New York Central lines. This trade
agreement defined certain working conditions and provided for an
hourly scale of wages at a general rate for boilermakers at 34%
cents per hour. The agreement further provided that it was to
" continue imtil Dec. 31, 1910 and thereafter unless 30 days'
notice is given by either party desiring a change." When this
agreement was signed by the railroad through Mr. D. R, McBain,
superintendent of motive power of the Lake Shore and by the
committee representing the boilermakers, the committee called
;Mr. McBain's attention to the fact that two or three boilermakers
were being required to work piece-work at the Collinwood shops
near Cleveland. Mr. McBain said that he would cause such piece-
work to be stopped and it was discontinued.
On December 27, 1910, this agreement was renewed in writing
for another year but on January 3, 1911, one week later, piece-
work was again introduced in the Collinwood shop. Between
January 3 and February 20, negotiations between the boiler-
makers' international officers and the general officers of the Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern railway and of the New York Cen-
tral lines were conducted in an effort to have piece-work discon-
tinued at Collinwood, and two strike votes wore taken bv the boiler-

Bureau of Mediation and Arbitration, 1911. 475
makers of the entire system, the result being announced to the
railway officers. As no redress was oflFered the strike was called
on February 20, 1911. About 1,000 boilermakers, helpers and
laborers were involv^ed, chiefly at points within the state of New
York, especially at Albany, Syracuse, Oswego, Depew on the New
York Central railway and at West Seneca and Dunkirk on the
Lake Shore. In all about 750 men were on strike in New York
State and about 250 in Ohio, Massachusetts and Michigan, chiefly
at Ashtabula, Collinwood, Springfield, Boston and Jackson.
On February 21, 1911, the chief mediator of the Department
of Labor of New York interviewed some of the general officers
of the New York Central lines at New York and was requested
to visit the shops at Albany, Buffalo and Collinwood so as to be
familiar with the situation. On returning to New York City on
February 27 he met Messrs. Hinzman and Weyand, international
vice-presidents of the boilermakers' union, and commenced at once
to negotiate with them and the railroad officers for a settlement
of the strike.
The railroad officers took the position that their Lake Shore
Agreement had not been violated because their plan was a co-opera-
tive system differing from piece-work in that each man was free
to adopt or reject the liew plan, was guaranteed his full hourly
rate whether he made it or not, and that prices by the amount of
of work accomplished were subject to adjustment to the satisfac-
tion of each operative.
They also held that the boilermakers on the New York Central
& Hudson Eiver railroad had violated their trade agreement with
the railroad by going on strike in sympathy with the Lake Shore
shopmen, as the two railroads, though both belong to the New
York Central lines, were separately organized and chartered com-
panies and managed separately as was evident from the fact that
separate, though almost identical, agreements had been made with
the men.
It appeared that the secretary of the boilermakers' district
organization had notified the New York Central & Hudson Eiver
railroad superintendent of motive power that they wished to renew
their 1910 agreement subject to an early conference regarding a
request for an increase and equalization of wages, ^fore than
Digitized by VjOOQIC

thirty days had elapsed after the service of this notice before the
strike but the company had requested that the proposed confer-
ence be postponed until the return from sick-leave of Mr. John
Howard, superintendent of motive power of the New York Cen-
tral & Hudson River railway. This postponement had been
agreed to by the union secretary and the date of February 23
had been agreed upon for the conference, so that the company held
that this left the old agreement binding on the men till thirty days^
notice should again be given. The proposed conference arranged
for February 23 was not held as the men went on strike on Feb-
ruary 20. The union officers held that the thirty days' notice had
been given and that their committee had been ready to meet the
railway officers, but had agreed to the postponement of the confer-
ence as a matter of courtesy but without intention of waiving
their rights gained by the service of thirty days' notice that they
desired a change.
The conferences to settle the strike beginning on February 27
were continued daily until March 11 when President Franklin
of the boilermakers' international organization joined his asso-
ciates, and continued thereafter until March 17 when the com-
pany decided that its proposal of March 10, 1911, should be its
ultimatum to the men. The railway officers who took part in these
conferences were President W. C. Brown, Vice-President A. H»
Smith, General Superintendent of Motive Power, J. F. Deems^
General Shop Inspector R. T. Shea, Superintendent of Motive
Power John Howard and his assistants. On several days prin-
cipal officers of the western roads were in attendance.
The company's proposal of March 10 was not acceptable to the
union officers, therefore, the conferences were discontinued on
March 17 and the union officers submitted the company's ulti-
matum to the men without their recommendation, and the pro-
posal was rejected by the men and was also withdrawn by the
company. Copy of the proposal mentioned is attached. The only
serious objection made to the company's proposal by the imion
officers was because the words " as rapidly as possible " were used
in the first clause, instead of the word " promptly " and because
the word " further " was inserted in the last clause of the proposal.

PROPOSED SETTLEMENT OF THE BOILER MAKERS' DISPUTE.
New York, Mabch 10, 1911.
First: All men on strike to be returned to work as rapidly as possible,
without discrimination against any individual for any cause except dis-
orderly conduct.
Second: No penalty to be enforced or discrimination of any kind shown
by the Union against the men who did not go out on a strike, or who have
returned to work.
Ihird: Referring to the New York Central co-operative shop system,
which the management have started in the Collinwood and Elkhart shops of
the Lake Shore railroad, and wish to in the Depew boiler shop, in the West
Albany boiler shop, and in the West Springfield boiler shop, the company
invites full discussion of the plan between the men and their representatives
and the management.
Fourth: No unfair advantage to be taken of any of the men working
under this system, and the matter to be handled in a quiet, orderly way, in
accordance with the company's general policy. Each man shall be guaranteed
his full hourly rate while working on the plan, whether he makes it or not.
This agreement to be in full force and effect until March 1, 1912, and there-
after unless thirty days' notice of- a desire to change same shall be given by
either party. The men hereby agree not to go out on a strike or walk out
for any cause, and the company agrees not to cause a lockout, until such
time as all negotiations between the highest authorities of both parties have
failed. This shall include the questions arising, r^arding the interpretation
of the agreements. Existing shop rules and rates are to continue in full
forc3 until such time as committees, representing the men, shall meet their
respective superintendents of motive power, as provided in the agreements.
Fifth: By recommendation of the chairman of the New York State Board
of Arbitration and Mediation, no further* change will be made from the
plan in force up to December 31, 1910, in any shop, until approved by the
committee named below. It is understood that no individual will be required
to adopt the co-operative plan if he prefers to work on the former plan,
neither shall any individual be required to refuse to adopt the co-operative
plan when approved as stated below. The introduction and working of the
system shall be under the jurisdiction of a committee of three men, whose
appointment the company agrees to, for one year, who will suggest any
changes in the policy that they deem proper. The men shall have the rigbt
of appeal to this committee, regarding any unfair treatment, and a decision
of the majority of this committee, during its life, shall be final and binding;
this committee to be composed of one representative of the men, one from
the company, and Mr. Rogers, representing the New York State Board of
Mediation, as the third member. To emphasize the fair purpose of the man-
agement, and in view of the orderly conduct of the men during the dispute,
the men will ba restored to their former employment, as rapidly as possible,
without prejudice to their record as to seniority and length of service, in-
cluding pension standing.
♦ Inserted against my resommendation — ^W. C. Rogers.

It should be noted that the last section of the proposal dated
March 10 appears to be " by recommendation of the Chairman of
the State Board of Arbitration." The fact is that the proposal of
that date made by the company altered his recommendation some-
what to represent what would be acceptable to the company.
From April 4 to April 14 negotiations were resumed on motion
of the Bureau of Mediation with the same* railroad officers and
union officers in attendance. Mr. Joseph Bishop, secretary of the
State Board of Arbitration, of Ohio, was present, as were also
President O'Connell of the International Association of Ma-
chinists and President Kline of the International Association of
Blacksmiths, whose crafts seemed likely to become involved in the
dispute at certain shops.
The proposal for settlement as revised April 14 is attached, but
the company was not willing to agree to clause 4 of this proposal,
namely, to submit the question of the introduction of piece-work
at Collinwood to arbitration. In the neantime piece-work sched-
ules were introduced in all the shops as rapidly as the company
could make the necessary changes, and the men employed to take
the strikers' places were required to work piece-work.
IN SET'lLEMENT OF THE BOILER MAKERS' DISPUTE.
New York, April 14, 1911.
1. All men to be returned to their former positions within thirty days.
If any men have not been returned to work within that time, the question
of their return shall be adjusted by the committee named below.
2. The co-operative plan to be discontinued wherever introduced since the
strike, without prejudice to future orderly discussion between the men and
their representatives and the management regarding its introduction.
3. On return of the men to work, the old rules will be temporarily restored
until adjusted by the employees and their respective superintendents of
motive power.
4. Question of introduction of piecework at Collingwood to be promptly
arbitrated by a Committee of three men, one representing the Company, one
representing the mtn, and the two to select the third.
6. Men who did not go out on strike or who have returned to work are
not to be discriminated against or have any penalty enforced against them by
the Union.
On May 11 the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad
Company made a proposal, copy of which is attached, to the men
on strike on that railroad, but not applicable to the other lines
involved.

BuEEAU OF Mediation and Arbitration, 1911. 479
PROPOSED SETTLEMENT OF THE BOILERS MAKERS' DISPUTE.
May 11, 1911.
First: The Company agrees to reinstate 60 per cent of the men imme-
diately, 25 per cent additional within 15 days and the remaining 15 per cent
within 30 days after date of settlement. Men to return to their former posi-
tions according to seniority of February 20 and no individual to be discrim-
inated against for any cause except conviction of crime. This restoration to
be made without prejudice to their record as to seniority and length of
8?rvice.
Second: No penalty to be enforced or discrimination of any kind shown
by the union against the men who did not go out on a strike or who have
returned to work.
Ihird: Shop rules and rates in effect December 31, 1910, are to continue
in full force until such time as committees representing the men shall meet
their respective superintendents of motive power for adjustment as provided
in their former agreements.
This proposal was declined by the men on account of the fact
that it did not apply to all the lines. This bureau endeavored
from May 17 to June 6 to secure the extension of a similar offer
to all lines, but making an exception in favor of the company in
regard to the shops of the Lake Shore at Elkhart where the men
had all remained at work and at CoUinwood where the strike order
had not been obeyed by all the men, and where the company was
not so seriously embarrassed. This proposal was declined by the
company, whose western lines were not willing to meet the offer
the New York Central & Hudson River railroad officers had made
on May 11, and the latter also declined to repeat their offer oi
May 11, as some strikers had returned to work at Depew, and
they had decided to complete the introduction of piece-work in all
the shops.
Several inquiries were made during the summer as to the possi-
bility of resuming negotiations to end the strike but both parties
declined to make any further offers of settlement, and this con-
dition 'obtained at the end of the fiscal year, September 30, 1911.
Chauffeubs and Cab Drivers' Strike — New York City.
A general strike of chauffeurs and cab drivers was inaugurated
in nearly all the large establishments doing business in Manhattan
Borough, on Monday, November 7, 1910. The cause of the dis-
pute was a demand for recognition of the union under " closed

shop " conditions, increased wages, reduced hours and better con-
ditions of employment relative to charges for uniforms, deductions
from pay for injury to cars, time during which vehicles are dis-
abled and other damages to employers' property. This strike
occurred while the express drivers' strike was at its height, the
chauffeurs r^arding the time as opportune for pressing their
requests.
The Bureau intervened promptly in the dispute and arranged a
conference on November 14 at the Imperial Hotel, New York,
between representatives of the several taxicab companies and the
union represenatives. The meeting was presided over by Medi-
ator Reagan of the State Bureau of Mediation and Arbitration.
The following letters to Mayor Gaynor and to Mr. Reagan were
discussed :
To Mayor Oaynor,
New York, Nov. 14, IDIO.
Dbab Sib. — We are willing to take back our employees who are on strike
whether or not they have joined a union, reserving the right, however, to
decUne to take back any of them, whether they be members of a union or
not, who may have committed or incited acts of violence and hostility
against us.
Those of our companies whose employees have raised a question concern-
ing the hours of employment or rate of wages will agree after the men
resume work at once to take up these questions with their employees or
with committees of them, for the purpose of reaching a settlement which
shall be just and satisfactory to both parties, with the understanding that
the former hours and rates of wages shall continue until December 1 next
and that on that date any changes mutually agreed upon shall then become
eflFective.

Deab Sib. — Your department has informed us that there is a strong im-
pression in the minds of our men, who are members of the Chauflfeurs'
Union, that while we may not discriminate against them because of their
union membership in taking them back, we will do so subsequently.
Our letter to the Mayor was written in good faith, and no such line of
action will be followed by any of us, and no man will be discharged without
just cause.
The question of the rate of wages and hours of labor in each company to
be adjusted by committees of employees meeting in conference with their
officers, providing, however, that the present rate of wages and hours of
labor will continue until December Ist, at which time the conditions mutually
agreed on will take effect.

The following are the original requests of the men :
1. Chauffeurs to receive $2.50 per day; men driving monthly car shall be
paid not less than $21 per week, with an additional allowance of $7 per
week, or its equivalent while out of the city.
2. That twelve consecutive hours, including one hour for meal, as near
the middle of the working day as possible, shall constitute a day's work. In
the e ent of a chauffeur having to finish a call beyond such twelve hours,
ha shall have twelve hours off from the time of turning in and shall finish
his next day's work at his regular time.
3. When a chauffeur is compelled to take, or takes a day off or many
with leave, he takes twenty-four hours for each day and his allotted time,
as if reporting the following morning, or otherwise he takes thirty-six hours
off. Wh n men get days or weeks off during the summer months, they to
get such in their turn.
4. When a chauffeur other than a night man is kept out until 6 a. m. or
later, he takes twenty-four hours off with pay.
6. Abolish all extra chauffeurs, no charge to be made for appurtenances.
16

6. That only members in good standing of Local Union 267 of the I. B.
of Teamsters and Chauffeurs of America be employed.
7. No charge to be made for breakage unless negligence can be shown.
8. This agreement to remain in force until the first day of November, 191 .
Agreement was reached on all points of dispute except the ques-
tion of union recognition, which was in the following terms:
" That only members in good standing of local No. 267 of the I.
B. of T. of America be employed ;" and amended to read : " The
employers shall have the right to discharge any man detrimental
to their business without interference from the union." The em-
ployers' association rejected both proposals, and the conference ad-
journed, the men refusing to recede from their demands for closed
shop conditions.
On November 19 further attempts were made to settle this point
in the dispute, when the following distinction between "closed
shop '' and ** union shop " was brought to the attention of both
parties by the Bureau :
It occurs to me that a clear understanding of the demands of the men
may distinguish between the " closed shop " and the " union shop " and afford
a basis of settlement.
What the companies probably believe is demanded by the men is as follows:
1. None but union men employed.
2. Committee from union received whether employees or not.
3. If employees refuse to join and remain in union they are discharged.
4. No men discharged without consent of union.
The men may be willing to accept a " union shop " agreement as follows :
1. Employment of men left in company's hands but union men given
preference.
2. The companies will receive conmiittees of employees to adjust all
grievances.
3. Sustaining the union not to be a concern of the companies.
4. Companies reserve right to dischax^ge any employee for sufficient cause,
but not for activity in union affairs.
[Signed] Wm. C. Rogebs,
Chief Mediator.
The union leaders agreed to the modification of their request
from " closed shop " to " union shop " but the companies' repre-
sentatives refused to give any preference to union men. Further
conferences occurred both in Mayor Gaynor's office and at the
office of lie Bureau, but neither side would recede from its stand
on the '^imion shop" proposition, imtil December 6, when a

Bttbbait of Mediation and Abbitbatiok, 1911. 483
proposition quoted below was received by the Bureau's agents and
a committee of chauffeurs from the Motor Owners' Association
liirough Mayor Oaynor.
The several taxicab companies whose names are signed hereto and whose
employees are on strike, make the following proposition relative to an ad-
justment of the said strike:
FiBST. All men employed by the companies during the strike shall be
retained in the service. These men, with the exception of the cases of two
of the companies, namely, the Cab & Taxi Company of New York and the
Universal Taximeter Cab Company, are substantially all employees who
were working for the companies at the time of the commencement of the
strike. It will, therefore, be possible for the companies, with exception of
the two named, to take back within the next few days, those of its employees
who were on strike with the exception of such as have been guilty of com-
mitting or inciting acts of violence and hostility against any of the com-
panies, who will not, be reinstated under any circumstances. In the case of
the Cab & Taxi Company of New York, it has in its employ at the persent
time about eighty-six new employees. It will be able at once to take back
one hundred and thirty of its old employees, and will take back the balance
of its old employees, excepting such as have been guilty of committing or
inciting acts of violence and hostility against any of the companies, when
and as opportunity for reinstating the same arises. In the case of the Uni-
versal Taximeter Cab Company, there are now employed about thirty new
men and this company can at once reinstate twenty of its old employees, and
the balance of said old employees, excepting such as have been guilty of
committing or inciting acts of violence and hostility against any of the com-
panies will be reinstated when and as opportunity arises.
Second. In taking back their employees, the companies will show no dis-
crimination between union and nonunion men. In the case of the two
companies named, who are unable, at present, to take back all of their former
employees, such employees who are taken back will be reinstated in the order
of the length of the term of their employment with the said companies,
up to the number required, as aforesaid.
Thibd. Any grievances which the employees of the several companies may
have against their employers, will, as soon as possible, and not later than
December 10, 1910, be taken up for adjustment by the oflScials of each
company with a committee of five of the chauffeurs in the employ of said
company, lliis shall apply to any grievances relative to:
(a) Payment by employees for uniforms.
(b) Charges imposed upon the employees for damages to the employer's
property.
(c) Deductions made from the pay of employees for time during which
vehicles are disabled, and
(d) To any other grievances the men may have against their respective
employers.

A special meeting of the union was called for the same night at
the Utah House, and the men on strike were informed by their
leaders what terms of settlement were offered through the Mayor.
Mediator Reagan of the Bureau addressed the strikers and urged
them to accept the terms. The proposal was accepted and the men
returned to work on December 7, 1910.
Not all the men could be re-employed at once as all the ve-
hicles were not ready for immediate service, and the trade was not
in normal condition; but in a week all the men were either at
work or were on a waiting list for service as needed, with the ex-
ception of about thirty-six employees of two of the companies who
were reported to the Bureau as refused for re-employment on ac-
count of " having been guilty of committing or inciting acts of
violence or hostility against the companies." It was reported on
December 14 that the chauffeurs objected to this decision of the
companies on the ground that the men were not guilty but were
only acctised by the companies on their information. They
threatened to go on strike again unless the men were not discrim-
inated against for any other cause than valid evidence of their
actual guilt.
At the Bureau's request, the two owners complained of agreed
to meet representatives of the chauffeurs at the Imperial Hotel
on the evening of December 14. The meeting was attended also

by Mediators Eogers, Reagan and McManus. It was agreed that
Mayor Gaynor should be informed of the evidence against any
man refused employment and the companies would abide by his
decision in each individual's case. The Mayor also wrote on De-
cember 14 to the companies inclosing a list of seventeen men who
had been arrested and convicted or held for trial during the strike.
The union leaders disclaimed all but four of these men as mem-
bers of their organization. Mediator McManus attended the meet-
ing of the executive committee and imemployed chauffeurs and
secured their agreement not to call a strike but leave the disputed
matter for adjustment through Mayor Gaynor. On December 15
representatives of the chauffeurs' union and of the Bureau called
on Mayor Gaynor and informed him of the decision reached to
refer disputed cases to him for determination. The Mayor agreed
to pass on each case when the evidence is submitted.
ExPBESs Drivers' Strike — New York City.
The express strike at Jersey City, N. J. and New York City
began October 22, 1910, when three hundred helpers on United
States Express Company wagons in Hoboken, N. J., went on
strike. Several days earlier the helpers sent a committee to ask
for an increase of $6 a month in pay and for shorter hours, claim-
ing that they were working for $45 a month and that their hours
were from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m., but that often they were required to
work as late as 9 p. m. without extra pay. They announced on
October 22 that their committee of seven men had been discharged
the day before, and on this accoimt and because the company re-
fused their requests they went on strike. On Monday, October
24, three hundred drivers joined the strike, allying that they were
held responsible for the safe delivery of express shipments and
felt that they could not take the risk of losing anything by work-
ing without helpers, though they disclaimed any direct grievances.
Some violence was reported on October 24. On October 28 the
sympathic striks spread to New York City and involved the
United States, Adams, American, National and Wells Fargo
Companies, and later included several local companies. As soon
as the men withdrew they were organized as a local union of the
International Brotherhood of Teamsters. There wiere about *5,000

men on strike, of whom 2,800 were in New York City and lie
remainder in New Jersey. Considerable violence was reported
from day to day and the express business was praddoally at a
standstill. The companies endeavored to keep the express matter
moving by im,porting numbers of strike breakers from other citiea
and they received all protection needed from lie New York police,
but were unable to make any considerable headway in the delivery
of goods. The strike threatened at several tinues to spread to other
cities and to involve in New York many organized teamsters. It
did involve brief strikes among drivers of several department
stores and other large business houses, and led indirectly to a
general strike of chauffeurs. The strike terminated November 14,
1910, when the men returned to work on the general terms pro-
posed by lie Bureau of Mediation and Arbitration on November 1.
The general history of the intervention by the Bureau of Medi-
ation and Arbitration and by other agencies is as follows:
The Bureau first intervened on October 28 when its representa-
tives called at the teamsters' headquarters on the report that the
strike was about to spread to New York City. On October 29,
Chief Mediator Rogers and Mediator McManus had a long con-
ference with the teamsters' international officers, Messrs. Valen-
tine Hoffman and Wm. H. Aehton, and with Mr. Frank H.
Piatt, general counsel for the United States Express Company,
who represented the views of the several companies and acted as
their general adviser during the strike. The express companies re-
fused to treat with lieir men except as individuals, but neverthe-
less ^e Bureau's representatives advised the strikers to send com-
mittees of the employees to see the officers of the several com-
panies regarding their alleged grievances. Such committees were
appointed, but the committees did not seek an interview with offi-
cers of the companies for several days, as some time was needed to
prepare the grievances and demands and also to instruct the com-
mittees how best to represent the wishes of the men.
On November 1 the Bureau presented the following proposal
for an agreement to end the strike :
AOBEEMXNT TO ElH) SXBISE.
1. AU fonner employees reporting for work at once will be hired except
men oonvicted of felony or violence.

BuBBAU OF Mediation and Arbitration, 1911. 487
2. Old scale of wages to run till December 1, 1910. The several companies
and employees will appoint separate committees to settle new scale and
grieyanoes separately for each company.
3. Unsettled disputes pending Novemiber 15, 1910, will be referred for
arbitration to the State Board of Mediation and Arbitration or a local
board of arbitration as provided by law. Both employers and employees
agree to abide by the decision of said Board until June 1, 1912.
On the request of Mayor Gaynor this was agreed to by the strike
leaders and was received by the companies for consideration. On
November 3 the committees interviewed the officers of the several
companies and presented the following requests :
At a meeting of oommittees of the various express companies, namely:
United States, Adams, National, Wells Fargo, American, Long Island, West-
cotts, Manhattan and N. Y. & Boston Dispatch:
The following scale of wages and conditions of employment was agreed upon
to be presented for consideration to the representatives of the express
companies :
Abucle I.

Transfer men and schedule men 70 00 per month.
Single wagon drivers 65 00 per month.
First helpers 55 00 per month.

sters, affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, be employed, if
available, or those willing to become members at the next regular meeting.

The companies assured the committees that tliere was nothing
in regard to wages and conditions of emplovment contained in
their requests that could not be adjusted to the mutual satisfac-
tion of all concerned but that they could not concede the demands
made for recognition of the union.
On November 4 the Bureau proposed as a means of settlement
of the issue of union recognition, in addition to its previous recom-
mendations, the following :
The express companies agree to receive committees of their employees and
agree not to discriminate against their men on account of membership in
organizations. The companies insist on their own freedom of contract and
will hold their men to efficient service.
This was agreed to by representatives of the strikers and was
received by the companies for consideration. On November 4
the Bureau reported to Commissioner of Labor Williams that the
strike situation was very serious and requested him to watch de-
velopments so as to be ready to order an investigation if he
deemed that circumstances required it.
On November 5 the companies sent the following letter to Mayor
Gaynor, who had also been active in efforts to promote a settle-
ment of the strike :
Hon. William J. Qaynor, Mai/or, New York City:
Dear Sib. — Although no demand was made on any express company before
the strike, except by a small body of helpers of the United States Express
Company for an increase in pay, the men will be re-employed in their former
positions and at former wages, without discrimination against any because
of having left the service, upon their individual applications made not later
than Monday, November 7, 1910.

After resumption of work and without delay, each company will confer
with its employees and endeavor to arrange wages satisfactory to the men
and the company.

Mayor Gaynor's response quoted below shows that settlemept of
the strike was delayed by the failure of the companies to make
clear that they would not discriminate against former employees
because they had joined a union.
CITY OF NEW YORK,
Office or the Hatcml
Novemher 6, 1910.
Dear Sir. — The letter of the express companies of this date, addressed
to me and setting forth the conditions on which they will take their men
back, is at hand. The representatives of the men refuse to accept the con-
ditions ETtated therein, namely, that they will "be taken back without dis-
crimination against any because of having left the service." They say that
limiting your word not to discriminate against them to the fact of their
having " left their service " leaves it open to you to discriminate against
them on all other grounds, such as that they joined a union.
The representative of the companies who saw me yesterday and to-day
protested that the companies do not intend in taking the men back to dis-
criminate against those who belong to a union. If that be so I should
think that you might say that you would not discriminate against any
for that cause, or, in general terms, for any cause except for heving used
physical violence during the strike. I suggested that, but as you will not
accept the suggestion there does not appear to be anything else that I can
do. If you will do this the strike ends immediately, but the men say they
see no use to go back only to be discharged because they have joined a
union. I do not want to enter into the dispute on this head, and have only
used my good offices to prevent the merchants and people of this city from
being further annoyed by this strike.
Very truly yours,
W. J. Gaytwr,
Mayor.'
Press comments on the Mayor's letter were followed by a letter
on November 7 from the Merchants' Association to the express
companies, urging them not to discriminate against their former

employees on account of union membership, and advising a speedy
settlement of the strike.
On November 8 the following night telegram was sent to Frank
H. Piatt:
Buffalo, Nov, 8.
Frank H. Piatt, 2 Rector Street, New York City:
I will urge strikers to accept following proposition if your directors agree
on it. My address. Labor Department, Albany. "The express companies
will not discriminate as to employment or retention in service against former
employees for any other cause than conviction of criminal conduct, but insist
on their own freedom of contract as to individuals. Committees representing
employees will be received if members of such conunittees are themselves
employees of the company concerned and represent only employees of the
company concerned."
Wm. C. Rogers,
Deputy Commissioner of Labor.
Mr. Towne of the Merchants' Association also sent the following
letter on November 8 :
THE MERCHANTS' ASSOCIATION OF NEW YORK,
54-60 Lafayette STBorr.
November 8, 1910.
To the Presidents of the Express Cchnpanies Operating in New York :
Dear Snus.^ — During my absence from the city yesterday the* executive
committee of the Merchants' Association of New York, of which I am chair-
man, addressed a communication to each of you commenting adversely, on
the position assumed by you in regard to the employment of members of
labor unions, as expressed in the public letter of Mayor Gaynor of the day
previous. With the position thus stated by our executive committee I am
in entire accord.
Permit me to point out, however, that there is a middle ground between
the two positions presented by the Mayor's letter and the alternative ap-
parently assumed. The former implies your position to be that you reserve
the right to refuse to re-employ a man because, since quitting your service,
he has joined the union; the latter implies that, because of his having
joined the union, you would be compelled to re-employ him even if you had
other and adequate reasons for not wishing to again have him in your
service. Here is a broad difference, concerning which a confusion of thought
apparently exists.
There are three conditions of employment as relating to organized labor,
viz.: (1) the "closed shop," in which the employer agrees to employ only
union labor; (2) the "non-union shop," in which the employer announces
that no union labor will be employed; (3) the "open shop," in which the
employer makes no discrimination, but employs both union and non-union
labor.
Even in a " closed shop," however, the right is conceded to the employer
to refuse employment to persons whose services he does not need, and
usually to persons whose character, habits or skill are unsatisfactory to
Digitized by VjOOQIC
BuBKAU OF Mediation and Arbitbation, 1911. 491
him. If I apprehend your position correctly, it is this latter point for which
you ccmtend; that you cannot permit yourselves to an agreement that simply
because a former employee, since leaving your service, has joined the union,
you shall thereby be compelled to re-employ him regardless of his fitness,
and even if, in the interim, he has flagrantly or maliciously sought to do
you injury. If this issue is correctly stated I believe that public sentiment
will approve the principle it involves. It would seem also that the Mayor's
letter did not cover or apply to this proposition.
Public sentiment, while not always conclusive, is usually an influential
if not a determining factor in the final settlement of controversies of this
kind. If the point for which you are contending is the one which I have
just stated, especially if this is the only point which prevents you from
meeting the men in conference for adjustment of the differences between
you, I believe that by making clear this fact you will justify your position
and command the approval of public sentiment. If the men are reasonable,
it would seem also that they would concede the inherent justice of the
argument that an employer should not be compelled to employ an avowed
enemy or wrongdoer, and that the way would then be cleared for a speedy
settlement of the present difficulties which are so grievously affecting the
interests and welfare of this great community.
Yours respectfully,
Henby R. Townb, President,
The Merchants' Association of New York.
On the 9th of November, Commissioner of Labor Williams
telegraphed to the several companies and to the labor headquarters
as follows :
My attention has been called to the serious situation in New York City
arising out of the strike between the express companies and their employees,
which strike, I am informed, can be settled if reason prevails.
Certain powers are conferred on the State Board of Mediation and Arbi-
tration by sections 141 and 143 of the State Labor Law, and unless im-
mediate steps are taken to effect an adjustment of the pending dispute I will
exercise such powers.
The Bureau conferred with officers of the National Civic Fed-
eration in regard to the general situation, and later Mediator
McManus went to the strike headquarters and requested that the
labor leaders defer the threatened general strike of teamsters for
forty-eight hours pending action by the Labor Department. The
request was granted.
On November 10 the companies published a response to Mr.
Towne's letter as follows :
New York, November 0, 1010.
Henry R, Toivne, Esq., President, Merchants' Association of New York, New
York City:
Dbab Sib. — Your letter of November 8, addressed to the presidents of the
various express companies, affords a very welcome opportunity of stating
Digitized by VjOOQIC
492 New York State Department of Labor.
our oppofiition in reference to the existing troubles, to the end that much
prevalent misunderstanding may be dispelled, and that the community and
those business interests represented by your association may thoroughly under-
stand the position which the express companies have taken.
You correctly say in substance that the former communication sent to us
by authority of your executive committee assumed that there were but two
extreme alternatives confronting the express companies — one, that they take
back into their employment every man belonging to a union, unless guilty
of actual violence, independent of any consideration of his worthiness, his
loyalty or fitness for the position; the other that the companies should
refuse employment to any man who was a member of the union. This last
position is the one which your executive committee imputed to us. Certainly
it is not one which the companies have ever occupied nor one which they
would feel themselves justified in taking.
You, however, have assumed in your letter that neither of these views
is taken by the companies, but that their position is this: that they are
perfectly willing to conduct their business on the basis of an " open shop,"
as defined by you, and that they do not intend to discriminate against any
employee on the ground that he is a member of a union.
With your definition of an open shop we entirely agree, and you have
correctly stated the position which the various companies occupy. We insist
that we shall have the right to pass upon the qualifications and merits of
our employees. We will not discriminate against any man because he is a
member of a union.
It seems proper that we should add a few words about the general char-
acter and qualifications of our so-called drivers, and the apparent origin and
reasons for the present disturbance in the business of the express companies.
A young man entering our wagon service is carefully investigated as to
his character and business qualifications, with the view of promotion. Our
wagon force cannot be considered the same as teamsters; neither can they
be considered as in the same class with drivers of coal carts, brick, dirt or
garbage wagons.
Our so-called drivers must be of a class competent to solicit freight, to
contract with shippers, to receive and deliver valuable shipments and pack*
ages, and to intelligently transact business with the heads of concerns and
families. In short, an express wagon is really an express office on wheels,
conducted by a man called a " driver," but who is, in fact an express agent,
having one or more assistants called helpers. It can thus readily be seen
that express employees of this class should not be subservient to a truck-
men's union, where they would have to obey strike orders in the event of
labor troubles with any of the other classes mentioned above.
The present troubles do not owe their origin to any general dissatisfaction
on the part of the employees of any of the companies with conditions of
service or remuneration.
A few boys employed as helpers on the wagons of one of the companies
demanded an increased wage. The local agent of the company, upon whom
this demand was made, replied that he had no authority to deal with the
request, but would submit it to the management. They thereupon retired
and immediately proceeded to acts of violence and intimidation, in which
they were joined by a mob. Other employees of this company were assaulted,
stoned, dragged from their wagons, and many of them seriously injured.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Bureau of Mediation and Akbitration, 1911. 493
Shortly these acts of violence extended to the employees of the other com-
panies, who had made no complaint of the conditions of their employment
and formulated or expressed no grievance of any description. This intimi-
dation finally spread from Jersey City, where it originated, to the city of
New York, and reached the express companies doing business there, and
was carried to the extent of a thorough demoralization and intimidation of
their men. The employees of the companies generally desired to continue
at work. Large numbers of them have steadily offered to continue their
work if properly protected against violence. Threats, however, have been
made against them very generally to the effect that they would be subject
to violence unless they joined the teamsters' union, and their wives and
families have been visited and told that unless the employees joined the
union " their bodies would be found floating in the North River."
Under these circumstances, the companies have felt that they would not
be justified in insisting upon the exposure of their men to the danger of
losing their lives. Large numbers of the employees have not left the ser-
vice, but have reported from time to time and have been instructed by the
proper officer of their company to remain at home because of the danger to
their lives. Large numbers of them have responded to calls from the com-
panies daily and have been assigned to and cheerfully performed duties other
than those which belong to their positions.
Now what, under these circumstances, is the duty of the companies?
They owe, in the first place, a duty to the public; they are engaged in the
performance of a public service. They are doing their utmost to perform
that service. They are prevented from it solely by violence. They cannot,
at the present time, procure requisite police protection because of the exist-
ence of an ordinance in the city of New York requiring drivers to be licensed,
an ordinance which has not 'been operative for many years and which has
always been regarded as inapplicable to companies engaged in interstate
traffic, but which is now appealed to by the leaders of this strike, and the
city authorities decline to give police protection to wagons the drivers of
which have not been able to procure such licenses.
In the next place, the companies feel that they owe a duty to their own
employees, that they should not themselves countenance the driving of their
faithful employees by violence and intimidation into the ranks of a union
which they have not heretofore chosen voluntarily to join, a union the mem-
bership of which has no interest in common with those of the employees of
the express companies. They represent an entirely different class of labor,
their lives are passed under entirely different conditions.
In the next place, the companies owe a duty to themselves and the busi-
ness which they conduct. To allow it to be unionized by force by the
Teamsters' Union would subject the business to the tyranny of a union which
would have it in its power to paralyze this important industry of the
country through sympathetic strikes called, if you please, upon the occa-
sion of a cabman's dispute with his employer, or a truckman's difference
about wages; or, as in the case of the late Chicago strike, upon a boycott
declared upon a garment worker's strike.
Each of the companies is standing for an " open shop," the right to
employ men, union or non-union, with respect solely to their fitness. We
believe you are entirely right in assuming that any company taking that
stand will receive the cordial approbation and support of the public, and
uigitized by
Google
4&4 New York State Depabtment of Labob.
we believe that no one will more readily concede the juBtioe and necessity
of the position taken than commercial bodies such as the one which you
represent.
We beg to say that the terms upon which each company is willing to
take back its employees are as follows: It will take back its employees
into the service without discrimination upon the ground of whether or not
they have joined a union.
It will not take back those men, whether they be members of a union or
not, who have committed or who have incited acts of violence and hostility
against the company.
It will insist upon its right, in selecting its employees, to be the sole judge
of the fitness of men to be employed, having in view the responsible duties
which those men have to perform.
In conclusion, we beg to say that the companies believe that if they can
be afforded the proper police protection to which every lawful business is
entitled they will be able to carry on their business to the satisfaction of
the public.

When Mayor Gaynor read this response he saw at once that it
meant that the companies consented to offer practically what had
been proposed by the Bureau on November 1, which the repre-
sentatives of the strikers had assured the Mayor would be accept-
able to them. He requested Mr. Towne to reduce the letter to such
a short form as had before been proposed and see if the companies
would not sign it. He did so and they all signed. This proposal
is as follows :
Henry R. Towne, Esq,, President Merchants^ Association of New York, New
York City:
Deab Sib. — We are willing to take back our employees who are on strike,
whether or not they have joined a union, reserving the right, however, to
decline to take back any of them, whether they be members of a union or
not, who may have committed or incited acts of violence and hostility
againgt us.
Those of our companies whose employees have raised a question concern-
ing their hours of employment or rate of wages will agree, after the men
resume work, at once to take up these questions with their employees, or
with committees of them, for the purpose of reaching a settlement which
Digitized by VjOOQIC

shall be just and satisfactory to both parties, with the understanding that
the former hours and rates of wages shall continue in effect until December

becotae effective.

The strikers' committee accepted the terms for presentation and
agreed to recommend their adoption, as follows:
November 10, 1910.
The undersigned, a committee representing the employees of the express
companies which join in the annexed letter to Mr. Towne, hereby receive
the terms of the said letter in settlement of the strike and advise the said
employees to resume work thereon at once and end the strike. We pro-
posed these same terms through the Mayor last Friday at his request, and
adhere to them now at his request.

The same evening the terms were presented at a special meeting
of the strikers by the conunittee. By invitation of the labor
leaders, Chief Mediator Eogers and Mediator McManus attended
this meeting. The adoption of the report was urged by Mr. Ash-
ton, general organizer for the teamsters, Mr. Rogers for the State
Bureau of Arbitration, and Mr. Frayne for the American Fed-
eration of Labor. The terms were accepted subject to their later
acceptance by the Xew Jersey strikers.
On November 11, Mr. Towne of the Merchants' Association
telegraphed Mayor Wittpcnn of Jersey City as follows:
Hon. H, 0. Wittpenn, Mayor, Jersey Cityj N. J.:
Having conferred again to-day with the officials of the express companies
concerning their intentions in the carrying out of the agreement stated in
their letter of yesterday to me, I am entirely satisfied that the companies
intend to carry out the letter and spirit of that agreement in good faith,
without quibbling or evasion, with justice to all concerned, and with a

sincere desire to establish and maintain good relations with all employees,
whether they are members of unions or not. This means what we all under-
stand as the open shop. I urge and advise the men to ratify this agree-
ment. I sincerely believe that in so doing they will promote their own best
interests, and that an adverse decision now would tend to produce results
which all would deplore.
Henry R. Towne.
A conference occurred iu Jersey City between committees of
the strikers and the ]\Iayor, bnt the strikers at their meeting in
Jersey City rejected the companies' offer through a misunder-
standing, but at a second meeting held the next day this action
was reversed and they voted to return to work on the 14th of
November. In accordance with the terms of the agreement the
question raised regarding wages and conditions of employment
were settled separately for each company by committees and com-
pany officers, and made effective on December 1. A specimen

ference,— that committee met Superintendent Christie in accordance with
arrangements made Monday, November 28th, and discussed the questions
raised, with the understanding that they would report back to the employees
they represent and would meet Superintendent Christie at a later date. This
morning this committee met Mr. Christie and the following scale of wages
was agreed upon, subject to approval of vice-president and general manager,
on the part of company, and a committee representing all the companies, on
the part of employees. This committee state that they will report here on
the questions raised as soon as possible:

If overtime payment is accepted it will be at the rate of twenty-five cents
(25c) per hour for drivers and twenty cents (20c) for helpers; first half
hour to be conceded to the employer; but if employee shall work any time
over the first half hour, the overtime shall start from the end of his ten
hours.
Six (6) days shall constitute a week's work. Sunday work to be eliminated
as much as possible. When employees are required to work on Sunday they
shall receive a day's pay, according to prevailing wages.
The following holidays shall be classed as Sundays: New Year's, Decora-
tion Day, July Fourth, Labor Day and Thanksgiving.
No discrimination shall be shown to any employee because of his affilia-
tion with any organization; and no employee shall suffer reduction in salary
through this agreement being entered into.
As far as possible, drivers, chauffeurs, or helpers shall be relieved of porter
work on the platform.
A letter from Mayor Gaynor regarding the question of violence
during the strike is of interest. It was written to Police Commis-
sioner Cropsey and was in part as follows :
December 7, 1910.
It all shows that the confidence in the police force which I have heretofore
expressed is not misplaced. I beg also to inform you that the information
I had from your department that there was little or no violence by the
express company employees on strike, notwithstanding loose and mischievous
statements to the contrary from day to day, has been verified by the com-
panies themselves, only one being excluded from re-employment under the
clause which I caused to be put in the settlement agreement that no employee
who had committed any violence should be taken back.
Some friction was seen on minor points when the men returned
to work, principally the wearing of union buttons by the men, but
the officers of the companies decided not to interfere with the
men's privileges as long as they rendered efficient service.
Laborers' Strike — SYRAcrsE.
On July 3 the hod carriers and building laborers employed by
the Mason Builders' Association went on strike for an increase in
wages from 22^ to 26 cents an hour and recognition of the union.
On the 5th the excavators struck for an eight-hour day
and an increase in wages from 17 to 22^/^ cents an hour, involv-
ing at least 1,107 members of the Hod Carriers and Building
Laborers' Unions, Xos. 30, 40 and 88. Practically all work of this
character in he city was at a standstill. The laborers working for
the Park Commission and the repair gangs in the Water Depart-
ment joined the strike and in other cases it spread beyond those

directly affected. The railroad laborers and section men joined.
Groups would form without plans and it usually required but
a few minutes to persuade the first gang of men who were found
at any line of work to join and quit work.
On the 6th the Bureau intervened and arranged a conference
between the representatives of the Mason Builders' Association,
the unions involved and the Trades Assembly, with the repre-
sentatives of the Bureau present. The employers agreed to con-
cede the demands of the men providing they would have the same
take effect on October 1, 1911, and giving as their reason the many
contracts they had on hand which they would not be able to com-
plete before then as they were all figured under the then existing
rate and to concede the increase demanded on those contracts would
entail a great loss to them ; but on all work after that date they
would grant all the demands made by the unions. The represen-
tatives of the men on strike refused to accept the offer made by
the employers.
Eealizing the seriousness of this strike and believing an adjustr
ment could be reached, the representatives of the Bureau again
persuaded both parties to meet again in conference. .On the 8th
another conference was held and the following agreement reached :
We the undersigned agree to hire Union Labor on our work which is con-
nected with the I. H. C. & B. L. of America, providing no Union men are
available we may hire other men providing they join the unions, 30, 40 and
88. We also agree to pay 22^ cts. per hour for excavating and 26 cts. for
all other work pertaining to building work. Eight hours shall constitute a
day's work, over eight hours shall be paid for at the rate of time and one*
half, double time on Sundays and all holidays. This agreement shall remain
in force from August 19, 1911, until May 1, 1913. Either party desiring a
change in this agreement shall give at least two months' notice and if no
notice be given this agreement remains in force for another year.
J. W. Dawson, Pres. Builders' Assn.
Richard O'Connor, Sec.
We, the representatives of Locals 30, 40 and 88, agree to live up to this
agreement. We also agree to prepare for the masons before 8 o'clock in the
forenoon and 1 o'clock after noon to a reasonable time.

On the 10th all men returned to work and on August 19 all the
provisions of the agreement were observed by the employers.

Sheet Metal Wokkers' Strike and Lockout, New York City.
Strikes resulting in a lockout began July 18, 1910, over a
jurisidiction dispute between sheet metal workers and carpenters
as to the erection of hollow metal doors and trim. This jurisdic-
tion dispute had been in progress for three years or more and both
trades claimed the exclusive right to erect the work, the carpenters
because of an umpire's decision and the sheet metal workers be-
cause of a decision of the Building Trades Department of the
American Federation of Labor. The sheet metal workers refused
to work on several buildings where carpenters were engaged in
erecting hollow metal doors and trim.
On November 14, 1910, the Building Trades Employers' Asso-
ciation of New York City ordered a general lockout of 1,800
members of the Sheet Metal Workers' Union No. 11. On Novem-
ber 23, 1910, the State Bureau of Mediation and Arbitration in-
tervened and consulted the sheet metal workers' committee. The
same day a conference was held between the Bureau of Mediation
and the Emergency Committee of the Building Trades Employers'
Association resulting in the following proposition being made by
the Association, through the Bureau:
This proposition is made for immediate acceptance:
When men are returned to the jobs and shops of all members of the Building
Trades Employers* Association, the strike called off, the lockout will be
declared off, and the Building Trades Employers' Association will see that
the question of the erection of hollow metal doors and trim is submitted to
arbitration promptly.
The men whom the employers have employed at prevailing rate to be given
cards in the union, and no man at work to be subject to any penalty; the
conditions of the last agreement to prevail, including the clause relating to
the manufacture of hollow metal doors and trim, tentatively adopted by the
Joint Agreement Committee.
November 22, 1910.
The Bureau advised both parties that some details of their
proposition ought to be made more clear before being presented to
the general meeting of the sheet metal workers by their committee,
and accordingly through the Thompson-Starrett Company the pro-
posal was modified and presented to a meeting of the Sheet Metal
Workers' Local No. 11 as follows:
Your committee through the efforts of the Thompson-Starrett Co. met a
conunittee of the four employers' associations on Wednesday, November 23,

at the Grand Union Hotel. Tlie following gentlemen representing the employ-
ers were present: Messrs Brown, Galagher, Williams and Fickinger, Messrs.
Gordon and Fisher of the Thonipson-Starrett Co.
The following memhers of your committee were pre.^nt: Lennon, Flana-
igan, Vetter, Harlin, Seheim, Kayland and Gerber. After going over the
present situation, the employers expressing their sorrow at the present con-
ditions, your committee agreed on the following to present for the considera-
tion of the members.
Local 11 to call off all strikes and return the men to all jobs on strike
previous to the lock-out and the employers to reinstate all members of the
union and the conditions as agreed upon by the joint agreement committee
including the tentative agreement relative to the manufacture of hollow metal
doors and trim to go in effect.
The question of the erection of hollow metal doors and trim to be left
to arbitration and the committee from the union and the four employers'
associations to meet within one week after the men return to work to decide
on the method and plan of arbitration for the erection of hollow metal doors
and trim.
All men now working in the shops to be admitted to the union provided
they can qualify as sheet metal workers.
An examining committee composed of four employers one from each of the
Employers' Associations and four members of the union representing the
four branches of the trade. This committee to meet on Saturday, November
26, and the examination to take place not later than Monday. November 28.
Should the examining committee disagree on any one candidate he shall be
referred to an umpire who shall have the deciding vote.
The committee selected Mr. Neygren (a civil engineer) as umpire.
No fines or penalties to be imposed on any applicant except the regular
initiation fee and any money they may owe to the union from previous
membership.
Should the carpenters fail to agree to submit the question of erecting
hollow metal doors and trim to arbitration the work is to be given to the
Sheet Metal Workers.
In order to show that the committee acted in good faith the committee
agreed to permit the men working for John W. Neil on the 26th street and
Broadway job to return to work on Friday, November 2.>th.
Representatives of the Bureau were present at the meeting and
through the courtesy of the union were given the privilege of the
floor. Chief Mediator Rogers addressed the meeting and urged
the adoption of the committee report. The report was adopted
and the men returned to work on Xovember :^8, 1910, closing not
only a serious trade dispute, but averting a threatene<l general
strike and lockout of the Building Trades in Xew York City.

Trackmen's Strike — Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad.
On September 11, Commissioner Williams received a com-
munication from A. ]?. Lowe, President of the International
Brotherhood of Maintenance-of-Way Employees, to the effect that
for some time a committee of the maintenance-of-way employees
in the track department of the D., L. & W. Railroad had been
trying to get a conference with the officials to have adopted an
agreement which had been prepared by them, giving them fair
working conditions and rates of pay; that they had got into
trouble as Chief Engineer Ray had discharged the chairman of
the committee giving as his reason for the discharge that he had
outstayed his leave of absence, and was not dismissed because
of his service on the committee; and recalling the services ren-
dered by his organization by the Bureau of Mediation and Ar-
bitration in the Delaware & Hudson dispute he was again de-
sirous of securing the sen'ices of the Bureau in this dispute.
The Commissioner on receipt of the above turned the matter over
to the Bureau for such action as might be proper and necessary.
P. J. Downey, representing the Bureau, immediately proceeded to
Scranton, Pa., the headquarters of President Lowe and repre-
sentatives of the trackmen's union on the system. After consult-
ing with the union leaders in Scranton, he went to the head-
quarters of the company in New York, as the representatives of
the men stated that if the company did not reinstate chairman
Foley and refer the other points in dispute to arbitration a strike
of the trackmen on the entire system might occur. A conference
was arranged and held on the 14th at the office of President
Truesdale. The company was represented by President Trues-
dale and Vice-President Loomis of the D., L. & W. Railroad and
the Bureau by if. J. Reagan and P. J. Downey. Mr. Truesdale
stated that the discharge of Mr. Foley was not for acting in the
men's behalf as charged, but for insubordination; that after the
meeting of Chief Engineer Ray with the section men and Mr.
Foley's time had expired on his leave of absence, he refused to
return to work but on the contrary was out among the men on the
system taking a vote, and when asked by the road master why he
had not returned, he answered that he could discharge him if he
Digitized by VjOOQIC
502 New York State Department of Labob.
desired ; and that that was the reason and the only reason for the
discharge and not for any activity in the men's behalf as claimed ;
that the policy of the company is now and has been to meet in-
dividuals or committees of their employees and adjust grievances;
that he did not deem it necessary to again meet the committee
from the track men as Mr. Kay had fully informed the com-
mittee as to the company's position on the demands they had
presented ; that the wages and conditions of employment of their
track men were not excelled by any of the competing lines and
no change would be considered now; and that insubordination
and violation of the company's rules were no questions for arbi-
tration. After the ending of this conference the following order
was issued:
trackmen employed on the d., l. & w. r. r.
important notice.
My Dear Brother:
Your committee which you authorized to do businesa for you have kept you
informed as to the result of our efforts through the buUetins sent you. Our
last bulletin told of our liaving turned the matter over to President Lowe who
came to Scranton Saturday. He wired President Truesdale to give him an
interview re the dismissal of your chairman, Bro. M. J. Foley and conunittee-
men, but the President wired back refusing to meet him just as he previously
refused to meet Acting Chairman Durkin and committee, saying his decision
as to Foley's dismissal was final.
President Lowe wrote to the commissioner of Labor for New York state
and also to Hon. Seth Ix)w, chairman Civic Federation, asking the good oflSces
of those gentlemen to assist President Lowe, who was desirous of avoiding
the necessity of sanctioning a suspension of work, if by any honorable means
he could secure a peaceable settlement giving justice to the parties dismissed.
Failing in his efforts to secure a square deal for Chairman Foley and Com-
mittee, we have asked him to authorize us to instruct you to fulfill your
promise and support your committee by suspending work until a satisfactory
settlement of these most arbitrary and unjust dismissals has been effected
and a scliedule secured which will prevent a recurrence of such injustice and
give us the same rights and privileges which other employees enjoy.
You will therefore on Saturday evening, September 16, or as soon after
as you receive this note, place your hand car and tools in your car house
or tool box, give the keys of same and your switch keys to the nearest station
agent, taking his receipt for the same, and notifying your road master you
are not on duty and will not be until notified by your committee over the
seal of the Grand Lodge that a satisfactory settlement has been made. See
your neighboring gangs, east and west, so all may know and act on this
notice promptly. Notify your president, A. B. Lowe, Gen*l Del'y, Scranton,
Pa., as soon as you quit work, and do all you honorably and legally can to
Digitized by VjOOQIC
BuKEAU OF Mediation and Aebitration, 1911. 503
bring about a speedy Bettlement. We only want a square deal and we expect
the support of every trackman on the system in our efforts to secure justice
for all.
We are yours fraternally,
Approved — A. B. Lowe,
President /. B. M, W, E,, Acting Chairman.

Believing a strike could still be averted, Mr. Downey went to
Seranton on the 17th, held a conference with Mr. Lowe and
committee and offered the following proposition over the long-
distance telephone to Chief Engineer Eay at his home in Orange,
N. J., as a basis of settlement and prevention of strike.
Lowe advises me that a strike has heen called on the entire system of the
D., L. & W. to take effect to-morrow morning at 7 a. m.; I believe this can
be averted should you agree to meet a committee of your employees in fifteen
days from date to adjust the several grievances they claim now existing. In
no manner will the previous requests be considered, but for a better under-
standing between you and your employees along the lines of those existing
on the Delaware & Hudson.
Mr. Ray stated it was his belief that the whole trouble was
caused by the company's refusal to reinstate Foley. He would
promise nothing further nor consider anything further than he
did at the last conference, that the reinstatement of Foley was out
of the question; if any of his men wished to see him he would
see them but would not discuss any matter that had been previ-
ously brought to his attention as the committee had his answer
on those matters and that was final. At a conference with him
in his office on the 18th he confirmed the above and on the 18th
six hundred foremen and trackmen in New York State quite
work. On the 22d, Governor Dix transmitted the following to
Commissioner "Williams with instructions to again take the matter
up and endeavor to bring about an adjustment of the differences :

Hon. John Dix,
Governor of New Torky State House, Albany, N, Y,
Sib:—
As you have doubtless seen in the Press the trackmen in the employ of the
Lackawanna Railroad Company have suspended work, pending a hoped for
Digitized by VjOOQIC

settlement of their controversy with that Company. The suspension was
caused by the refusal of the Chief Engineer to consider favorably a schedule
of working rules and rate of wages presented to him by a Committee repre-
senting a large majority of the section foremen, extra gang foremen, and
permanent section men. The matter was aggravated by the dismissal of
Mr. M. J. Foley, Chairman of the Committee, as the Committee believed
without just cause, but simply because he was Chairman. The Committee
tried to secure a conference with General Superintendent Clarke, but failed,
he refusing to receive them. The vice-chairman of the Committee wrote to
President Truesdale, asking for a hearing but this was refused. The matter
was then turned over to me, and I wired President Truesdale for an audience.
He answered that he did not see any reason for seeing me or anyone else
in connection with the matter. I then wrote him at length, asking that the
controversy be submitted to arbitration, either by an arbitration board,
appointed in the usual way, or be referred to the State Board of New York
for arbitration by them. I further offered to accept any proposal which he
might make that was fairer than mine, but he again refused to alter his
decision.
I then applied to the Hon. Mr. Williams, Commissioner of Labor for your
State, in which the larger part of the Lackawanna system is located, who
sent Deputy Commissioner Downey to interview the Committee and myself,
who then proceeded to New York where he met President Truesdale, urging
a settlement by arbitration, if it could not be settled by conference between
the Committee and the officials. But President Truesdale again refused to
consent to this mannen of settlement, stating further that he thought his men
were satisfied with existing conditions and rate of wages. I finally, seeing
no other way of securing a peaceful settlement, sanctioned the request of the
Committee, that they be allowed to exercise the authority given to them by
their comrades of the track department, who have promised to support them
in the attempt to secure living wages and fair working conditions to the
extent, if necessary, of suspending work.
The strike is now on. Mr. Downey is again in New York in a further
effort to mediate the matter, and I write to ask your good offices for anything
you can do in the same direction. My offer to arbitrate the wage schedule
and the rules stands good at any time, and the moment the Company agree
to this, and to give Chairman Foley a fair and impartial hearing before an
official not connected with the controversy and face to face with his accuser,
the strike will at once be called off.
If your Honor can suggest anything fairer, I pledge the committee and
myself to accept it promptly, and to call the strike off at once and do every-
thing in our power to facilitate a speedy settlement of the matter.
Thanking you in advance for good offices, I am,
Yours respectfully,
(signed) A. B. Lowe,
President International Brotherhood, Maintenance of Way Employees.
On the 22(1 the following request for cooperation was received
from the Commissioner of Labor of New Jersey :

STATE OF NEW JERSEY
Department of Labor -
Trenton, N. J., September 21, 1911.
Mr. Downey,
114 East 28th Street, New York City.
My dear Sir: —
A communication was received by me today from the Hon. Woodrow Wilson,
Governor of the State of New Jersey, suggesting that I place myself in com-
munication with Mr. VViiliams and yourself with the hope that I might
assist in obtaining a satisfactory adjustment of the present labor dispute
between the operatives and the management of the Lackawanna system.
This suggestion on the part of the Governor is made by reason of the fact
that a part of the Lackawanna system lies in the State of New Jersey and
therefore thu residents of this State have a direct and material interest in
the situation. I would be pleased to have you notify me upon receipt of
this letter of your views in the matter and indicate such action as you may
deem advisable for me to pursue.
Assuring you of my earnest desire to co-operate with you in this matter,
I am,
Yours respectfully,
(signed) Lewis T. Bryant,
Commissioner of Labor.
A second conference was arranged and held at the oflBce of
President Truesdale on the 25th. The following were in attend-
ance: Pres. Truesdale, Vice-Pres. Loomis, Hon. Lewis T.
Bryant, Labor Commissioner of Xew Jersey, and P. J. Downey
of the Bureau of Mediation and Arbitration of New York State.
Mr. Downey suggested as a basis of settlement the following:
That all on strike return to their respective positions excepting
those guilty of violence, if any ; that in six months from date an
authorized official would meet a committee of employees and take
up with them any grievances they might have. Mr. Truesdale
stated he would make no promises to meet any committee, that
the strike was unwarranted, that in New Jersey only ten men
were on strike and in New York State only 600 were on strike
out of a total of 1,800 men employed directly in the State, and
that Mr. Downey could assure Governor Dix that the road was
well patrolled so that there was no danger of any accidents to the
traveling public.
In a few days many of the strikers returned to work and on
October 1st President Lowe issued an order calling the strike off
and with few exceptions all were again reinstated in the com-
pany's service.

STATISTICS OF STRIKES A:ND LOCKOUTS.
The number of labor disputes in New York State was less in
the year ended September 30, 1911, than in the previous year.
Accompanying the decrease in number, from 250 to 215, was a
more than proportionate decrease in magnitude. Measured
either by number of workmen concerned or by the amoimt of
working time lost, the disputes of this year were less than half
as extensive as last year. This contrast, however, denotes no
imuflual conditions as to labor disturbances in 1911, but serves
to bring out the abnormal conditions of 1910, produced by sev-
eral very large disputes.

Number of Disputes.
The decrease in number of strikes and lockouts was general in
the various groups, exceptions being shown in wood manufactures,
paper and plup manufacture and the printing trades, while in
the textiles group there were exactly the same number as last
year. As usual, there were the greatest number of strikes in the
building industry. The next largest number occurred in the
metals and machinery group, although the number was only 27
as compared with 46 in 1910. Strikes in the printing trades in-
creased from 3 to 10. The table below shows the number of dis-

The clothing industry, in which the largest number of em-
ployees were concerned in strikes, shows the greatest decrease,
from 130,450 in 1910 to 25,505 in 1911, or a reduction of 80
per cent. There was also a considerable decrease, amounting to
67 per cent, in the building industry. Several of the smaller
industry groups reveal increases in employees aflFected. An in-
crease from 11,584 to 20,120 in the metal trades brings that
group into the second position in importance instead of third as
in 1910 and 1909.
Relative Number Involved.
The following table is intended to give an idea of the propor-
tion of large and small disputes as compared with 1910 and 1909,
measured according to number of employees directly involved.
In the group of the smallest strikes recorded, those which in-
volved from 10 to 19 workmen, there were 32 strikes this year
as compared with 28 last year. The next group, those strikes
which comprised from 20 to 49 employees, shows a smaller num-
ber but a slightly larger percentage of disputes than in 1910.
In every group of the larger disputes, both the actual number
and the percentage were less than last year, showing that there
were a larger percentage of small strikes and a smaller percentage
of large strikes this year.

Duration of Disputes,
Many strikes were of extremely short duration, some lasting
only one-half day. In the other extreme, there were nine dis-

putes which lasted 15 weeks or longer and caused more loss
of working time than all the others combined. Forty per cent
of disputes lasted less than one week. Another 40 per cent lasted
one week but less than four. The largest number of workmen
in any of the classes as arranged below was 33,151 who were
engaged in strikes which lasted between two and four weeks.
The same class produced about 20 per cent of the total lost time,
or 425,713 days. Last year the largest number of employees and
the greatest amount of time lost were in the group of strikes last-
ing eight weeks and under ten weeks.

Aggregate Working Days Lost in Disputes.
A consideration of the number of men affected, in combina-
tion with the duration of a strike, which resolves itself into the
number of working days lost, gives the most practical index for
measuring and comparing the importance of disputes. The
following table gives the figures for such measurement and
comparison :

The most important group shown in this classification is the
metals and machinery trades. The loss of time in the industry
aggregated over a million working days, or 45 per cent of the total
for all industries. This is the largest increase over last year
shown in any industry and is more than six times the number of
days lost in the same industry in 1910. The building and the
clothing trades were respectively second and third in importance.
In each the lost time amoimted to more than 300,000 days.
The time lost through labor disturbances in the clothing trades
was of less relative importance this year than usual. Thus they
show a striking contrast to the figures of 1910, when the time lost
in that industry was abnormally large. The loss in 1911 was less
than one-twelfth the amoimt lost in 1910. Part of this reduction
is doubtless due to the establishment of a permanent board of
local arbitration in New York covering a part of the clothing in-
dustry, following the cloak-makers' strike of 1910.
Pbincipal Disputes.
Ninety per cent of the aggregate loss of time was produced by
31 large disputes, each of which involved a loss of 10,000 or
more days. A list of these disputes is given herewith, which
show the days lost in each dispute, the days lost in each industry
and the percentage of lost time due to the principal disputes in
each industry.

The largest dispute of the year was that of machinists in New
York City, causing a loss of 819,650 days. The next in import-
ance was in the building industry, namely, the strike of New
York City marble workers. Others in which the loss of time
aggr^ated over 100,000 days each were the tailors in New York
City, boilermakers on the New York Central Railroad and leather
workers in New York City. These 31 principal disputes of 1911
were distributed in ten different industries, the metal trades, the
clothing trades and the building industry furnishing six apiece,
other industries having one, two or three apiece.
Localities Chiefly Affected.
As is perfectly natural, the large cities of the state being centers
of population were likewise centers of industrial disturbance.
New York City was the scene of nearly half the disputes and
80 per cent of the time lost. Nine other localities were affected
to the extent of 10,000 or more working days lost, as listed below:

The most prolific cause was as usual the demand for increased
wages, but these were fewer in proportion than last year and in-
volved less than half as many employees. The unusual feature
of this year's disputes revealed in a study of the causes is the
prominence of strikes for reduction of hours. Twelve thousand
two hundred and seventy-six workmen participated in this struggle
fof shorter Tvorking hours, averaging more than a thousand to a
dispute. The loss of time was greater in these strikes than in
those caused by any other demand or grievance.
Trade-union disputes were more numerous but of far less im-
portance than in 1910. Strikes against wage reductions were
more numerous and more extensive. Sympathetic strikes were
also of more frequent occurrence.
A further analysis of the trade-union disputes is displayed
below :

But little more than one-fourth as many workmen participated
in this class of disputes in 1911 as in 1910. ** Recognition of the
union " was the banner followed by three-fourths of the workmen
engaged in trade-union battles. Discrimination against union
members and disputes between rival unions engaged also large
numbers of workmen.

The workmen were somewhat less successful this year than last.
In 1910, 90 per cent of the number engaged in disputes were
either wholly or partly successful, but in 1911 only 74 per cent.
A large portion of those striving for shorter hours were partly
successful and half of those on strike for wage advances won
their demands while others won a part. Their proportion of
success was large also in strikes against wage reductions, for trade-
union demands and for more favorable working conditions. But
the employers were largely successful in those disputes concern-
ing employment of particular persons, payment of wages and the
sympathetic strikes.
Mode of Settlement.
Nearly half the strikes were settled by direct negotiations be-
tween the contending parties or by persons authorized to repre-
sent them. A considerable number were terminated by the simple

Conciliation by outside agencies played a more important part
than last year in the settlement of industrial disputes. While
the number of strikes settled thus was only 21 as against 23 in
1910, the number of employees involved therein was much greater,
in fact more than twice the number. Seventeen of the cases of
conciliation were instances of intervention by representatives of
the State Bureau of Mediation and Arbitration. Among these
were several of the principal disputes of the year. Detailed nar-
ratives of these cases will be found in the report of the Chief
Mediator on preceding pages. Three disputes were settled by
the mediatory work of local committees and one by the Mayor
of New York City.

CONCILIATION AND ARBITRATION PROVISIONS IN
JOINT TRADE AND INDUSTRIAL AGREEMENTS.
Note. — The Department of Labor has for several years made a point of
collecting trade agreements entered into by employers and employees of this
State, in order to have available such important information as they contain
respecting wages, hours and other working conditions in New York industries.
The agreements are collected through co-operation between the Bureau of
Mediation and Arbitration and the Bureau of Labor Statistics and are filed
by the former Bureau. It is difficult to secure a complete collection of all
existing agreements. The collection is necessarily confined, for the most part,
to agreements that have been printed. In numerous cases an agreement be-
tween a single employer and his employees exists only in the original manu-
script and copies are to be obtained only at the cost of considerable trouble
and expense. Again, it is difficult to keep track of and to secure the frequent
revisions in price lists in many trades where piece work prevails (notably, in
the clothing trades), although such price lists are virtually. wage agreements.
During the past year, however, a special canvass of trade unions to secure
agreements was made by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and it is believed
that the file is at present more complete than ever before.
Heretofore it has been the practice to reproduce in full for public informa-
tion, either all agreements entered into during the year which were secured
or a selected list thereof. This year a departure from this practice is made
and there are reproduced in following pages the provisions to be found in
any agreement on file in force during any portion of 1911 which provide for
settlement of disputes. In other words there is here presented a collection
of conciliation and arbitration provisions from trade agreements.
The several provisions are listed according to trades, the latter being
arranged alphabetically.

ferred to the presidents of the two associations before named, who shall

3. Within thirty (30) days after a xmion has made a detailed demand
for a change of scale, or within sixty (00) days after a publisher has made
such a detailed demand, the two parties in interest must have a conference.
A shorter period than above specified may be agreed to. At said conference
the party on whom the original detailed demand was made shall also have
the right to present a detailed proposition on its own behalf. This con-
ference (or continuation thereof) shall be one of conciliation, and every
effort shall be made to agree.
4. Upon failure to agree, each party shall prepare its statement, embrac-
ing the conditions that it seeks to establish. Each statement must be com-
plete in itself, and copies thereof shall be forwarded to the commissioner of
the American Mewspaper Publishers* Association and the president of the
international I'J'pographical Union, accompanied by a letter of transmittal,
to be signed jointly by the parties in interest, certifying that they are ac-
quainted with the contents of both statements. The commissioner and
president shall thereupon determine the questions or subjects which can
be properly submitted to arbitration, and shall promptly notify the in-
terested parties of their decision. In case the two officials can not agree,
their differences shall be submitted to the National Board of Arbitration.
8ec. 6. After the questions to be arbitrated have been determined, a Local
Board of Arbitration must be formed, composed of residents of the locality
in which the controversy arises, two members thereof to be named by each
side, one such representative of each contending party to be free from per-
sonal connection with or direct interest in any newspaper or any labor
union. '1 he board as thus constituted shall select from among its members
a secretary. The four members of the board shall then choose an additional
member, whT> shall be a disinterested party and who shall act as Chairman
of the Board. The Chairman shall preside, put motions, etc., and shall be
entitled to vote on all propositions, which properly come before the board
in o]>en session. He shall declare a motion carried only when at least three
of the arbitrators shall have voted affirmatively thereon. At t^e conclusion
of the hearing the Chairman shall retire, and the other members of the
board shall go into executive session and immediately take up a considera-
tion of the issues involved. If a tie vote occurs on any proposition, or if
there are any differences, questions or propositions, which do not receive
the votes of three of the four original members of the board, the Chairman
shall be called in and shall cast the deciding votes on all unsettled questions
or propositions. If the Chairman of the Local Board shall not have been
selected within thirty (30) days after the questions to be arbitrated have

been determined, he shall be named by the Chairman of the Special Stand-
ing Committee of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association and the
President of the international Typographical Union or their proxies upon
the request of either of the interested parties. The two officials named or
their proxies may visit the locality if they deem it necessary. Any expense
incurred shall be defrayed equally by the parties to the controversy.
6. After the Local Board of Arbitration has been organized it shall
proceed forthwith to conduct the hearing under the following rules:
fcJEC. 7. The party making the original demand shall have the right to
present its case and evidence without interruption, excepting that when oral
evidence is introduced, cross-examination of witnesses shall be allowed.
'Ihe opposing parties shall have the same right in turn. The first party
sliall then have the right to present evidence strictly in rebuttal, and the
opposing party shall be allowed to present counter evidence strictly in sur-
rebuttal. Where objection is made by either party to the admission of any
evidence offered by the other party, the board by vote shall decide as to
the admissibility of the evidence in question.
8. In case of the inability of either side to present evidence at the
moment, the order may be varied to the extent of allowing such evidence
to be presented at such session as may be agreed upon by the parties to
the contest, or as may be ordered by the Local Board of Arbitration. No
evidence shall be received or considered that was not presented at a regular
open session of the board.
9. Cral arguments may be limited to one speech on each side, after all
evidence has been presented. Written pleadings, instead of oral arguments,
shall be allowed whenever agreed upon by the parties to the contest, or
whenever ordered by the Local Board of Arbitration.
10. There shall be an agreement by at least a majority of the members
of the board as to the exact times and places of hearing, of which both
parties shall be notified in season. The sessions shall be continuous, except
for necessary intermissions, until the hearing is concluded.
)1 It shall be allowable for the members of the board, in any case, to
visit any office to see the operation of labor therein, or for any other laud-
able purpose, to aid in arriving at a just decision.
SSec. 12. When said hearing is concluded the board shall, without unnee-
essary delay, and as set forth in section 5 of this code, go into executive
session, from which all persons except the four original members of the
board shall be excluded, for the determination of its award. In its deliberar
ticns the tranFcript of the stenographic report shall be accepted as the beet
evidence of what occurred at the hearings, unless it can be shown that groes
errors exist in said transcript. Should the four members be unable to decide
upon the award, the Chairman shall be called in, as provided in section 5
of this c de. 'ihe award of the board must be formulated and signed by
all of the* members thereof at a regular executive session, after there has
been full opportunity for consideration and discussion, the date and time
of such session having previously been determined at a full meeting of the
Local Board. If any member of the Local Board dissents from the award,
and wishes to file a dissenting opinion, he shall give immediate notice to
that etfict,. and shall, within forty-eight (48) hours after the award has
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Bureau of Mediation and AfiBiTRAnox, 1911. 619
been decided upon, and before it has been promulgated, formulate his rea-
sons for dissenting, and such opinion mu^t be signed by him before final
adjournment at a regular executive session arranged for as above provided.
Such dissenting opinion, when thus signed, must be attached to the award.
13. Ihe Local Board shall not be compelled to set forth its reasons for
nvaking the award, and may only do so in the written award. In framing
its award the findings shall be expressed in detail, to the end that no mis-
understanding shall afterward occur. In the absence of a local agreement to
the contrary, all awards of the Local Board shall be for at least one year.
14. All expenses of the Local Arbitration Board shall be divided equally
between the union and publishers. The Board shall employ a competent
stenographer to report the proceedings, and the transcript of such report
shall be accepted as the best evidence of what occurred at such hearing,
unless it can be shown that gross errors exist in said transcript.
15. When differences arise as to the application of the arbitration agree-
ment, the code of procedure, or any clause or clauses in contracts, or the
interpretation to be placed upon any part, or parts of any agreements,
there shall be an agreed statement of facts signed by both parties forwarded
to the commissioner of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association
and the president of the International Typographical Union, together with
the arguments and briefs of both parties, accompanied by a joint letter
stating that each party is familiar with the contents of all documents. In
case these two officials can not reach a decision upon the issues involved,
their differences shall be submitted to the National Board of Arbitration.
The National Boabd.
16. So far as they are applicable, the foregoing rules of procedure for
the Local Arbitration Board shall govern the National Board of Arbitration.
17. Should it be alleged, on appeal, that either party to a local arbitration
under the national agreement has omitted to perform. any duty prescribed
therein, or attempted to evade any of these rules, or has secured any unfair
or fraudulent advantage, it shall be the duty of the National Board of
Arbitration to determine the case in conformity with the rules provided by
this code and the national agreement. Should the National Board determine
after a full hearing that evasion, neglect, collusion or fraud has character-
ized the local proceedings, it shall be wholly within its power to reject all
that has been previously done and order a rehearing before the National
Board or a new Local Board; or it may find against tlie offending party,
or annul the individual arbitration contract.
18. In the absence of a local agreement to the contrary, all awards of
the National Board shall be for at least one year.
19. Ihese rules «ind this code may be amended at any meeting of the
National Board in accordance with the method prescribed in section 16 of
the national agreement.
20. These stipulations and the code of procedure as hereinbefore set forth
are hereby ratified and confirmed this seventh day of March, 1907, by the
special standing committee of the American Newspaper Publishers' Asso-
ciation and the executive council of the International Typographical I'nion,
in conference assembled, and it is agreed that the national arbitration
agreement shall be interpreted and applied in accordance herewith.
