STATISTICS OF CITIES.

By an act of Congress, which was approved and became law July 1,
1898, the Commissioner of Labor was called upon to make an investi­
gation annually into the statistics of the cities of the United States
having over 30,000 population. The paragraph of the act referred to
is as follows:
The Commissioner of Labor is authorized to compile and publish
annually, as a part of the Bulletin of the Department of Labor, an
abstract of the main features of the official statistics of the cities of
the United States having over 30,000 population.
In accordance with this act a compilation was attempted from the
printed reports of various cities, but owing to lack of uniformity in
these reports, and in many cases to the lack of reports themselves, it
was found impossible to make such a classification of the various items
relating to the governmental, financial, and other conditions of these
cities as seemed necessary for a satisfactory comparison. A schedule
of inquiries was therefore prepared and the work taken up by the
special agents of the Department. This required personal visits to
the various officials of the cities coming within the scope of the
investigation. These officials in many ways manifested the utmost
interest in the investigation, and contributed freely of their time and
labor in compiling the data desired and in making the report a success.
The results were printed in the Bulletin of the Department of Labor
for September, 1899.
As will be seen by reference to the language of the law which has
been quoted, provision is made for a similar inquiry each year. In
the second report, which appeared in the Bulletin of the Department
of Labor for September, 1900, an effort was made to enlarge some­
what upon the first, and to slightly change some of the inquiries in
order to secure fuller information on the subjects covered. The
present report is the third of the series, and while it has not been
thought necessary to repeat the investigation of last year relative to the




813

norimunicipal libraries, charities, etc., it has been deemed desirable to
somewhat increase the scope of the inquiries and modify certain classi­
fications in the interest of a more ready comparison from year to year
of the cities included in the report. The thanks of the Department
are due to the officials of the various cities which were visited for
their cordial cooperation in the effort to reduce the official records to
such form as seemed necessary for satisfactory comparison. It is
hoped that experience will render this task easier each year.
The first report, contained in the Bulletin for September, 1899,
included 140 cities, this being the number in the United States which
were at that time believed to have a population of 30,000 or over.
The results of the Twefth Census regarding the population of cities
were not available when the data were collected for the second report,
which appeared in the Bulletin for September, 1900, but according to
the best estimates that could be secured the Department considered
itself justified in including but 129 cities. Joliet, 111., however, was
wrongly included, it being shown by the corrected census returns to
have less than 30,000 population; while several cities, which were
supposed, when the data for that report were collected, to have less
than 30,000 population, were shown to have more than that number.
This information, however, came too late to permit their inclusion in
the report. The following cities were thus omitted: Montgomery,
Ala.; Fitchburg and Newton, Mass.; Bayonne, N. J .; Schenectady,
N. Y ., and Chester and York, Pa. The present report includes 135
cities—all of the cities shown by the results of the Twelfth Census to
have a population of over 30,000.
The titles of the twenty-three tables embraced in the present report
are as follows:
T able I .— Incorporation, population, and area.
T able I I .— Dates of ending of years covered.
T able I I I .— Police, retail liquor saloons, and arrests, by causes.
T able I Y .— Firemen, fire equipment, and property loss from fires.
T able Y .— Marriages and births.
T able V I .— Deaths, by causes.
T able Y I I .— Percentage of deaths from each specified cause.
T able Y I I I .— Death rate per 1,000 population, by causes.
T able I X . — Death rate per 1,000 population.
T able X . — Area of public parks and miles of streets, sewers, and street railways.
T able X I . — Care of streets, food and sanitary inspection, and disposal of garbage
and other refuse.
T able X I I . — dumber and kind of street lights.
T able X I I I . — Public schools and libraries.
T able X I Y . — Charities: Almshouses, orphan asylums, and hospitals.

cities.
T able X Y I . — Debt and legal borrowing limit.
T able X V I I .— Basis of assessment, assessed valuation of property, and taxation.
T able X Y I I I .— Receipts from all sources.
T able X I X . — Expenditures for construction and other capital outlay.

These tables, which immediately follow the discussion of the same,
will be taken up in order and a short analysis and explanation of each
will be presented. At the same time there will be given information as
to the changes from last year which have been adopted in the prepara­
tion of this year’s report.
Table I —Incorporation, population, and area.—In this table, as in
the remaining twenty-two tables, the 135 cities in the United States
having a population of 30,000 or over are presented in the order of
their population, the largest being placed first. The date of incorpo­
ration of each of the cities is first given, followed by the population
at the Twelfth United States Census, June 1, 1900. In many cases it
was found that the city had been reincorporated. In each of such
cases the date given is the one on which the city was first incorporated,
the date of reincorporation being given in a foot-note. The great dif­
ficulty of securing reliable estimates and the fact that so short a time
had elapsed since the official enumeration by the Census Office seemed
to justify the Department in attempting no estimate of population for
January 1, 1901. Instead, the official figures for June 1, 1900, have
been used. This table also presents information as to the area in acres
of each of the cities, subdivided as to land and water wherever pos­
sible. Lack of official records as to area rendered anything but an
estimate impossible in some cities, but the greatest care has been exer­
cised in such cases to have these estimates approximate accuracy as
closely as possible. No subdivision o f the area of cities into land and
water was made in the two preceding annual reports on this subject.
Table I I —Dates o f ending o f years covered.—As regards the dates
of ending of the years covered, it is necessary to say that in most of
the cities investigated the various departments of the city government,
such as fire, police, street, etc., made their reports for a different year,
one department having December 31 as the end of its statistical year,
while the others had their years end on other dates. It was thought
important, in connection with the study of the data included in the
various tables, to furnish a statement as to the dates of ending of the
years for which the information is given. Where but a single date is
given under this heading all the various city departments close their
year on the same daj". Where the year of the various departments
ended on different dates all the necessary information as to the ending
of the same is furnished in this column. All data in the tables (with
the exception of those which are noted) cover one year’s transactions,
and that the last year for which the facts were obtainable. It is in­
teresting to note in this connection that in but 13 of the 135 cities




816

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

included in this report have all of the various departments of city
activity had their business year end on the same day. In all of the
other cities business years ending on two or more different dates have
been used. Not only would the labor of collecting and compiling
the data necessary to these reports be greatly lessened in each city
by the adoption of a uniform business year by all of its departments,
but it is believed that the accounts and transactions of the city itself
would be much simplified thereby.
Table I I I —P olice, retail liquor saloons, and arrests, by causes.—This
table shows the number of policemen in each of the cities, the number
including not only patrolmen but officers, such as sergeants, lieuten­
ants, etc. Persons employed as messengers, matrons, janitors, drivers,
etc., are not included. In this table are shown also the number of
licensed retail liquor saloons, together with the amount of the license
fee, and, immediately following, the number of arrests. The licensed
retail liquor saloons reported do not include clubs, drug stores, etc.
The arrests are classified according to the causes for which persons
were arrested, as drunkenness, disturbing the peace, assault and bat­
tery, homicide, vagrancy, housebreaking, and larceny. The arrests for
other causes are given under “ all other offenses,” which is followed by
a column showing the total arrests for all offenses. It was found that
there was no uniform classification of offenses causing arrest in the
Various cities, different cities entering a different charge for a similar
offense. Hence the following statement is given to show what offenses
were combined in each item of the classification in the table: Drunk­
enness includes “ common drunk,” “ drunk and disorderly,” and all
cases where drunkenness in any form was the primary cause of arrest;
disturbing the peace includes all cases of disorderly conduct not attrib­
utable to drunkenness; assault and battery includes all cases of assault;
vagrancy includes arrests of beggars, tramps, loafers, loiterers, and all
persons without apparent means of support; housebreaking includes
burglary and all cases of breaking and entering, and larceny includes
pocket picking, robbery, and all cases of theft.
Table I V .—F irem en,fire equipment, and property loss from fires.—
The number of firemen in each of the cities is given in this table,
classified as to whether they are regulars, call men, or volunteers.
These numbers include the officers of the fire department in the differ­
ent grades, as well as the actual firemen, but do not include messen­
gers, janitors, etc. This table also goes quite fully into the equipment
of the fire departments in the various cities, showing the number o f
steam, hand, and chemical engines, the number of hand fire extin­
guishers, fire boats, hook and ladder trucks, hose reels and hose wagons,,
fire hydrants, water towers, and horses. In addition to this informa­
tion, data are also given as to the total length of ladders and hose
belonging to the various fire departments of each of the cities investi­
gated. The table closes with statements showing the number of fire




STATISTICS OF CITIES.

817

alarms, the number of fires, and the total property loss from the same.
The number of fire alarms does not include duplicate alarms sent in
from different points, and a first and second alarm for a single fire have
been considered one alarm. It should also be stated that two or more
buildings burned as a result of one fire have been considered one fire.
Table V.—Marriages and births.—This table is in all respects similar
to that used in the report for last year, with the addition of a column
showing the number of marriage licenses issued. The table, in addition
to this information, shows the total number of marriages, the number
of male and female births, the total births and births per 1,000 popu­
lation, and the number of stillbirths. The figures showing the birth
rate per 1,000 population are based on the population at the Twelfth
United States Census, June 1,1900, as shown in Table I. In bringing
the figures for the various cities into comparison, it will be noted that
in some cities the number of marriages is largety in excess of what
might naturally be expected. This in some cases is accounted for by
the fact that the city is located near the border of another State in
which the marriage-license laws are more exacting, and that many per­
sons consequently repair to the city for the purpose of being married
in order to secure the benefit of the more liberal conditions offered
there. The reverse of these conditions accounts in some cases for the
small number of marriages in other cities.
Table V I —Deaths, by causes.—It was found during this investiga­
tion, by an examination of the various city reports, that in almost
every city a different classification of the causes of death was used
in making the official statement of deaths. It was apparent that these
classifications, differing so widely, could not be used, inasmuch as the
value of the data concerning this feature of city supervision consists
mainly in the comparison afforded as to the number of deaths from
the same cause in each of the cities investigated. In the two previous
reports on statistics of cities a uniform classification was of course
adopted, but as this was not entirely satisfactory for the purpose of
comparison with other collections of statistics of mortality, the Depart­
ment has this year adopted a modified form of the Bertillon classifica­
tion. This classification was officially approved and adopted by the
International Congress of Hygiene and Demography in August, 1900,
and is now being used by a number of cities in this country and by
some States in the classification of their mortality statistics. As its
more general adoption is probable, not only in this country but abroad,
it has been deemed wise to adopt this classification here. The full
official nomenclature upon which the modified form is based has been
published as a supplement to the Public Health Keports (Vol. XV,,
No. 49, December 7, 1900) by the United States Marine-Hospital
Service of the Treasury Department.
The proportionately large number of deaths in some of the Southern
cities is undoubtedly accounted for by the fact that the population is




818

largely made up of colored people, among whom the death rate is much
higher than among the white population. While no classification o f
deaths has been made as between white and colored in Table V I, it has
been found possible to do so in the following series of short tables
covering a number of cities having a large colored population. In
these tables the figures for white and colored, as well as for total popu­
lation upon which the results are based, are from the returns of the
Twelfth Census.

Table V II.— Percentage o f deaths frm n each specified cause.—This
table is based on Table V I, and shows for each city what percentage
o f the total deaths during the year was caused by typhoid fever, what
by malaria, what by smallpox, and what by each of the remaining
causes enumerated in Table VI.
Table V III.—Death rate p er 1,000population, by causes.—This table
is also based on Table VI, and shows for each city the number of
deaths per 1,000 population from each specified cause.
Table I X .—Death rate p er I f 00 population.—This table is based
partly on Table VI. The population of each city as estimated by the
health officers, which furnishes the basis of the calculation as to
the official death rate, is given in the first column of the table. This
is followed by a column showing the official death rate of each city as
calculated by the health officers of the same. The actual population
June 1, 1900, as shown by the Twelfth Census, is next brought for­
ward from Table I, and immediately following this is given the death
rate calculated on the basis of these figures. In most cases these do
not differ greatly from the figures used by the health officers them­
selves. Stillbirths are not included in the calculation of death rates.
As stated in connection with Table V I, the high death rate o f some
Southern cities is explained by the fact that their population consists
largely o f colored people, among whom the death rate is much higher
than among whites, as shown by the series of short tables given there.
Table X .— Area o f public parks and miles o f streets, sewers, and street
railways.—In this table is shown the area of all parks and gardens
open for the free use of the public, whether owned by the municipality
or by a private individual or corporation, and also the number of
miles of streets in each of the cities paved with cobblestones, granite




STATISTICS OF CITIES.

827

and Belgian blocks, bricks, wooden blocks, asphalt and asphalt blocks,
macadam, and gravel. The number of miles of all other kinds of
pavement is aggregated in a single column, and this is followed b}" the
total miles of streets paved in each city and the miles of streets
unpaved. There are also shown data, which were not furnished in
the two preceding reports, relative to the number of miles of sewers
in each city, classified as to whether constructed of brick, tile, or other
material, and the miles of single track of street railways, together
with the number of persons employed by the companies operating
the same.
Table X L — Care o f streets, fo o d and sanitary inspection, and dis­
posal o f garbage and other refuse.—This table deals with the provision
made by each city for the care of its streets and the disposal of garb­
age. The table shows whether the streets are swept by hand, by
machine, or' by both hand and machine, and the number of square
yards of streets swept per week. The figures given show the total
amount of sweeping done per week, measured in square yards, and do
not indicate, therefore, the total area swept, which would in most
cases be considerably less, inasmuch as many of the streets are swept
more than once a week. Next follow columns showing the average
number of persons employed in sweeping and sprinkling the streets
by the cities themselves and by contractors. The next two columns
show the number of food and sanitary inspectors employed by each
city, while the two immediately following show the tons of ashes dis­
posed of by the cities and by contractors. The table further shows
the tons of garbage, dead animals, and other refuse sold, burned, or
otherwise disposed of in these cities, the quantities disposed of by the
cities themselves and by contractors being given separately. These
columns are followed by those in which are given the average number
of persons employed in the removal of ashes, garbage, and other
refuse.
Table X I I \—Number and hind o f street lights.—This table shows
the number of arc and incandescent electric lights, the number of
Welsbachand other gaslights, and the number* of vapor lamps and oil
lamps which are in use in the streets, alleys, and public parks of the
various cities. Lights inside public buildings are not included.
Table X I I I .— Public schools and libraries.—The form of this table
has been somewhat changed from that in use in the preceding report
on statistics of cities. Some differences of opinion among the offi­
cials o f various cities as to what constitutes a “ school” were encoun­
tered during the progress of the last investigation. This has resulted
in a different classification of the data designed to bring out these
facts in the present report. The table shows, first, the number of
buildings in each city in which public schools are conducted, and in
this number are included both those owned and those rented by the




828

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

city, the number of rented buildings in each case being shown by a
footnote. The second column of the table shows the number of school­
rooms—that is, the number of rooms used for seating or recitation
purposes. The number of high schools is next shown, and all such
schools are included whether conducted in a building used exclusively
for that purpose or in a building in connection with the other public
school grades. These data are followed by the number of teachers
and the number and average attendance of pupils, separately classified
as to whether in high schools, in kindergartens, in other regular day
schools, in night schools, or in other public schools. The number of
pupils as shown here means the total number of different pupils regis­
tered during the year. All pupils that have been transferred from
one school to another, and whose names consequently appear on two
or more registers, have been counted but once.
The last four columns of this table are devoted to a consideration
of the facts relating to public libraries owned and controlled by the
various cities, together with information as to the number of vol­
umes in the same, the number of volumes withdrawn for home use,
and the number withdrawn for use in the reading rooms of the library
during the period covered by the report. Libraries the titles of which
are vested in self-perpetuating boards of trustees, etc., and which are
practically free city libraries, have been included. In last year’s re­
port were also given data as to libraries under other than municipal
ownership and control. It has not been thought necessary, however,
to cover such institutions each year, and data relating to the same were
therefore not secured for the present report.
Table X IV *— Charities: Almshouses, orphan asylums, and hospi­
tals.—In the first annual report on statistics of cities data on this
subject were presented for municipal institutions only; that is, those
institutions which were supported or controlled by the municipality
itself. In many of the cities which were included in the report, how­
ever, institutions of a similar character were found under the control
o f and supported by the town, county, or State, or by private con­
tributions. In some cases such institutions existed in cities which did
not themselves provide such aid. In most cases these private or semi­
private institutions were open to those unable to support themselves
or secure proper medical aid and other attention. In many cases pri­
vate institutions were found in which free attention was given to those
needing it, while in some instances a part of the support of each insti­
tution was contributed by the city as a condition to furnishing the nec­
essary attention to its poor. In planning the second annual report it
was determined, in view of the public service rendered by these insti­
tutions, to secure data relating to them similar to that secured for the
first report relating to strictly municipal institutions, and publish
the same in connection with those data. This plan was carried out and




STATISTICS OF CITIES.

829

last year’s report contained data not only as to those institutions owned
and controlled by the city, but also those owned and controlled by the
county, town, or State, or by private enterprises, such as churches,
benevolent associations, etc. It was the purpose of the Department
to include in that report all those institutions which admitted the gen­
eral public or a specified class of the public either free or partially
free. It was not thought necessary, however, to duplicate that can­
vass for several years, and the present report, therefore, contains data
relating to municipal institutions only. The table shows the number of
almshouses and orphan asylums, with the average number of inmates,
and the number of hospitals, with the total number of patients treated
during the year. The column relating to the number of hospitals
includes in some instances smallpox hospitals or pesthouses, which are
not strictly charitable institutions, but are operated by the cities for
the protection of the general public health.
Table X V .— Cost o f water, gas, and electric-light plants owned and
operated by cities.—In this table it is shown whether the waterworks,
gas works, and electric-light plants in the various cities are owned
and operated by the municipality. Where these public utilities are
municipally owned and operated, further data are given as to the year
in which they were built or acquired by the cities, and the cost of
the same. The figures for cost represent the cost up to the end of the
fiscal year covered by the report, and include amounts expended for
extensions, etc., in addition to the original cost of building and equip­
ping the plants. To these data an additional column has been added
in the present report to each section of the table, showing respectively
the miles of water, gas, and electric-light mains.
Table X V I .— Debt and legal borrowing lim it.—This table shows first
the amount of the bonded, the floating, and the total debt of the cities
included in the report. In this classification temporary loans, unpaid
warrants, etc., have been regarded as a floating debt. The data as to
debt are followed by those as to the amount of the sinking fund of the
various cities, which deducted from the preceding column, showing
the total debt, furnishes the figures for the next column representing
the net debt of each of the cities. This is followed by a statement as
to the legal borrowing limit. In several cities it was found that the
bonded indebtedness as given in the reports of the cities did not include
some special bonds, such as school, park, or waterworks bonds, or
bonds issued for street or sewer construction, etc. They were omitted
by the city officials because they were not considered a city debt proper,
they having been issued for one or more of the special purposes named
and charged, in some instances, against the property along the street
or in the locality in which the expenditures were made. In such cases
the city usually acts as an agent through a board or commission in
issuing and redeeming the bonds, but disclaims all responsibility for




830

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

their payment. As most cities include all such bonds in their state­
ments of indebtedness it has been deemed proper for purposes of com­
parison to include them in these cases also.
The fact should be noted in connection with this table that in some
cases the debt as here given does not represent absolutely all of the
public obligations of the property within the limits of the city. In
certain cases where it has been desired to make improvements for the
benefit of a territory larger than that of the city, the State legislature
has provided for the formation of a board or commission and for bor­
rowing money for carrying out the desired improvements. This bor­
rowed money represents an obligation, not of the cities as such, but
of the board or commission, although interest and principal as well as
all expenses of maintenance and operation must be met by taxation
against the property within the limits of the territory benefited. This
method has in many cases been employed because the debt limit fixed
by the State legislature prevented the necessary borrowing on the part
of the city directly, and as it is desired to retain a low debt limit, spe­
cific permission from the legislature is required for each issue of bonds
in excess of that limit. Well-known cases of this sort are Chicago,
with its drainage canal, and Boston with its metropolitan park, sewer,
and water commissions. In such cases as these no attempt has been
made to apportion to the cities involved the proper proportion of debt
chargeable in each instance as it was regarded as impracticable. Such
definite information, however, as was available has been presented in
the form of footnotes to the table. With regard to the city’s share of
the county and State debt the same principle has been followed.
The conditions in Washington are somewhat peculiar. Being the
seat of the Federal Government and the site of the vast properties
necessary to its central administration, Congress, which is the law­
making body of the city, has established the rule that one-half the
municipal expenses shall be paid by the Federal Government and onehalf raised by taxation. The act providing a permanent form of gov­
ernment for the District of Columbia, approved June 11,1878, specifies
that, “ To the extent to which Congress shall approve of said estimates
[of the annual expenses of government for the District of Columbia]
Congress shall appropriate the amount of fifty per centum thereof;
and the remaining fifty per centum of such approved estifnates shall
be levied and assessed upon the taxable property and privileges in said
District of Columbia other than the property of the United States and
of the District of Columbia.” The principle laid down in the forego­
ing act haSj with very few exceptions, been followed by Congress in
making the appropriations for the expenses of the District of Colum­
bia. In any study of the financial statistics of the city of Washing­
ton, whether in this or subsequent tables, this peculiarity should be
borne in mind.




STATISTICS OF CITIES.

Table X V I I —Basis o f assessment, assessed valuation o f property,
and taxation.—This table shows the basis of assessment, represented
in per cent of the full value of real and personal property. Only the
legal basis of assessment was shown in the two preceding reports, but
it has been found in some cities that in practice the basis adopted is a
much lower percentage. Two columns have, therefore, been added in
this table showing the basis actually used in the assessment of real and
personal property. Then follow three columns showing the assessed
valuation of the real, personal, and the total property in each of the
cities considered, while the remaining columns of the table relate to
the tax rates for various purposes levied on such property. In most
cases a statement was secured as to the rate of tax levied per $1,000 of
assessed valuation by or for the State, the county, and the city, and
for other purposes. The value of the data subdivided in this manner
will be seen at once.
Table X V I I I —Receipts from all sources.—A slight change has been
made in this table from the form in use in the preceding reports in
order to show a total for the actual income of these cities for the year
as well as this actual income plus the cash on hand at the beginning of
the year and receipts from loans. The actual income is first given
classified as to the amounts received during the year from the prop­
erty tax, from liquor licenses, from other licenses, from fines and fees,
from franchises, from waterworks, from gas works, from electriclight plants, from special assessments, from docks and wharves, from
ferries and bridges, from markets, from cemeteries, from bath houses
and bathing pools and beaches, from all other sources, and the total
actual income from all sources combined.
This detail and total of actual income is followed by a column show­
ing the cash on hand at the beginning of the fiscal year, and another
showing the amounts received as loans for more or less temporary
use. These last two items form no part of the actual income of cities,
but a final column is given under the caption of “ total receipts for
fiscal year,” in which are combined the amounts given in the table as
“ total actual income for fiscal year,” “ cash on hand at beginning of
fiscal year,” and “ loans.” The cash on hand at the beginning of the
fiscal year, as shown in this table, does not include the cash in the
sinking fund, except where so noted.
Table X I X — Expenditures fo r construction and other capital out­
lay.—This table, together with Table X X , deals with the expenditures
during the fiscal }^ear covered by the report. Table X I X deals espe­
cially with those for construction and for the acquisition of property
of a permanent nature, and for other capital outlay. The items for

charities; schools; libraries, art galleries, museums, etc.; parks and
gardens; streets; sewers; waterworks; gasworks; electric-light plants;
docks and wharves; ferries and bridges; markets; cemeteries; bath
houses and bathing pools and beaches; sinking fund; and for all other
purposes. The total of these items follows. The next column shows
the amount of loans repaid, while the final column of the table gives
the total of expenditures including loans repaid.
Table X X .—Expenditures fo r maintenance and operation.—This
table is very similar in form to the preceding one, and shows the
expenditures for the maintenance of all the principal departments of
city work, together with the total expenditures for maintenance and
operation.
Table X X L — Summary o f receipts and expenditures.—This table
summarizes the results of Tables X V III, X I X , and X X , bringing into
one presentation the total of receipts and expenditures shown in those
tables. A column showing cash on hand at the end of the fiscal year
is also given.
Table X X I I .—Assets.—This table shows the estimated value of all
property, real and personal, owned by the city at the end of its fiscal
year, including cash in the treasury; uncollected taxes; cash and bonds
in the sinking fund; and all lands, buildings, apparatus, and furniture
belonging to it, for whatever purpose used, as the city hall, police and
fire departments, schools, libraries, art galleries, museums, parks, jails,
workhouses, reformatories, hospitals, asylums, almshouses, docks,
wharves, ferries, bridges, markets, cemeteries, bathhouses, bathing
beaches, waterworks, gas works, electric-light plants, etc. The value
of streets and sewers, however, has not been included. Investigation
revealed the fact that but few cities keep any record of the value of
city property, hence the figures in this table are largely estimates
based on the best judgment of the various city officials who furnished
information for the several tables.
Table X X I I I .— P er capita debt, assessed valuation o f property, and
expenditures fo r maintenance.—This is the last table of the series, and
shows per capita the net debt, assessed valuation of real and personal
property, and certain of the detailed expenditures for maintenance,
together with the total for the same. Among these detailed expendi­
tures are shown the per capita expenditures for maintenance of the
police department, etc., the fire department, schools, municipal light­
ing, and streets except lighting. The per capita expenditures for all
other items of maintenance are combined in the next column, and the
column showing the total per capita expenditure for maintenance is
the final one in the table.

STATISTICS OF HONOLULU, H. I.
During the course of the investigation into the statistics of cities of
the United States having 30,000 population or over, the results of
which are presented in the preceding article, an effort was made to
secure data relative to Honolulu, H. I., similar to those secured for
the 135 cities which are included in the tables given in connection with
the article referred to. It was found impossible, however, to secure
entirely similar data for this city, and for this and other reasons it has
not been included in those tables. The data secured appear, neverthe­
less, important and interesting, and are presented in brief form in the
following pages.
The population of this city, according to the Twelfth Census of the
United States, was 39,306, this number including the residents of
all the territory designated as the “ Honolulu district.” The limits of
the city are not definitely fixed and it has not been incorporated, the
government of the city and its support being under the control of
the officials of the Territory of Hawaii in common with the remainder
of the Territory. The Territorial records up to the present time have
been kept in such a way as to render impossible in many cases an
accurate segregation of data pertaining to the city from those per­
taining to the Territory as a whole.
The city has about 25 miles of macadam streets and about 52 miles
of unpaved streets, which are cared for by 35 persons employed for
the purpose.
Garbage is removed by the board of health, 70 persons being
employed for the purpose.
The area of public parks in the city open for public use is 193.6
acres.
There is one public hospital in which 130 patients were treated dur­
ing the year.
There are no libraries owned or supported by the city or Territory;
but one privately owned library, consisting of 1,000 volumes, is open
for the free use of the public.
A waterworks plant representing, up to the date of this report, a
cost of $1,300,000, and an electric-light plant representing a cost of
$60,000, are owned and operated by the Territorial Government.
A number of small tables have been constructed showing the facts
ascertained in regard to the police and fire departments, the health
department, the public schools, the income and expenditure of the
city, and its assets. These data are for the year ending December
31, 1900.

W age Statistics. —This is the first comprehensive collection of
wage data undertaken by the Minnesota bureau of labor. In pre­
senting the wage statistics, the method of classifying the wage-earners
according to wage groups was adopted. Such a classification is made
for each of 97 industries and for all industries combined. The statis­
tics cover the wages of 18,116 employees in 2,129 establishments in
1899 and 66,956 employees in 2,816 establishments in 1900. Each
table shows by sex the number and per cent of employees receiving
the wages specified in the respective groups. Following is a sum­
mary of the wage statistics for all industries:

horses. A total of 1,112,000,000 feet of logs were cut. The average
wages paid were about $37 per month, including board and sleeping
accommodations.

extent. To ascertain the nature and extent of child labor in the State'
two investigations were made by the bureau, one in 1899 and the other
in 1900. In 1899 1,173 establishments were reported which employed
child labor. Of 41,957 persons employed 577, or 1.38 per cent, were
children under 16 years of age. In 1900 1,522 establishments were
reported in which 751 out of a total of 44,162 employees, or 1.70 per
cent, were children under 16 years of age.
Sunday L abor . —In accordance with the provisions of a law enacted
in 1899 a special investigation was made by the bureau with respect
to the number of persons employed on Sundays, the conditions of such
employment, and other facts relating to Sunday labor. The principal
objects of inquiry were the nature of Sunday work, the reasons fo r
its performance, the proportion of persons employed on Sundays, the?
number of Sundays during the year on which labor was performed*
the working hours per day on Sundays and on week days, whether
Sunday labor was compulsory or optional with the employees, and
whether a day of rest was allowed in lieu of Sunday.
Returns were received from 760 establishments which engaged in
work on Sundays. Of 37,710 employees engaged an average o f
11,928, or 31.63 per cent, were employed on Sundays. The average?
hours of labor per day in these establishments were 9f on week days,
and 8 on Sundays. W ork was performed on an average of 43 Sunday®
during the year. The reasons assigned for Sunday labor were public
demand or public necessity in 496 cases and preservation of property
or private necessity in 264 cases. In the former class the laborers,
numbered 19,407, of which 8,822 performed labor on Sundays. In
the latter class the laborers numbered 18,303, of which 3,106 per­
formed labor on Sundays. This shows that by far the larger propor­
tion of Sunday labor was performed on account of public demand o r
necessity. In 486 cases out of 674 reported no day of rest was
allowed in place of Sunday, while 188 reported granting a week dajr
of rest, 73 with pay and 115 without. In 646 establishments noadditional pay was allowed for Sunday labor, the persons being*
employed with the understanding that such labor was to be performed..
Sixty-three establishments paid price and one-half for Sunday labor,,
and 14 paid double price. In 607 cases Sunday work was obligatory
and in 122 cases it was optional. In 483 out of 722 cases reporting*
refusal to perform Sunday labor involved dismissal or discharge. The?

There were 65 labor exchanges (bourses du travail) in 1899, with
1,350 participating associations and 239,449 members. Most of these
exchanges are assisted by the municipal and departmental governments.
The annual subsidies received by the labor exchanges in 1899 amounted
to 445,980 francs ($86,074.14) from municipal and 23,250 francs
($4,487.25) from departmental appropriations. The labor exchanges
secured employment for 103,714 persons during the year.

Seventh Annual Report o f the Government Labor Bureau o f New

The labor bureau of New South Wales is not a statistical office, but
confines its work chiefly to the assisting of the unemployed. The
information contained in this report, therefore, relates mainly to the
work of the bureau and the expenditures incurred in securing work
for the people and providing relief when needed. Tables show, by
occupations, the number of registrations and of persons assisted and
sent to work, their wages, and a comparison of these figures with
those for previous years.
The following table gives a statement of the number of persons
registered and the number assisted and sent to work during each fiscal
year since the bureau was organized:

The reason that the number sent to work exceeds the number
registered is due to the fact that a man registers only once, but there
is no limit to the number of times he may be sent or assisted to work.
The year ending June 30, 1899, shows a continued decrease in the
number of registrations of persons seeking employment, and also in
the number assisted and sent to work. Of the 3,843 pers.ons regis­
tered 2,196 were single and 1,647 married men, representing 4,941
children, of whom 1,630 were self-supporting and 3,311 were dependent.

This report consists of two parts: Part I, agriculture, 46 pages;
Part II, chattel mortgages, 1 page.
A g r ic u l t u r e . —This part of the report contains statistics of the
weather, crops, live stock, dairy and apiary products, labor and wages,
values of farm property, market prices of agricultural products, etc.
The total value of farm property in 1899 was $947,513,360, of which
$563,271,777 represented land, $213,440,281 buildings, $54,994,857
implements, and $115,806,445 live stock. Each of these items shows
an increase over the preceding year.
In 1899 farm hands, with board, received an average of $149 per
year and farm hands without board $243 per year. The average
wages per month for the working season were $15.38 with board and
$24.93 without board. Domestic servants received an average of $6.19
per month. The average wages varied but little from those paid in
1898.
C h a t t e l M o r t g a g e s . —During the year ending December 31,
1899, there were on record 18,216 chattel mortgages, representing
$11,067,664. This shows a decrease, both in number and amount,
when compared with the preceding year. Of the chattel mortgages
inl899, 9,392, representing $2,988,853, were registered against farmers.

The functions of this bureau are those of a government employment
and relief agency. By means of labor agents throughout the Colony a
weekly record is kept of the condition of the labor market in all parts
of the Colony. Registers are also kept of persons seeking employ­
ment and of those seeking help. This information is furnished upon
application and by publication. The bureau also advances money for
fare to persons obtaining employment in distant parts.
The present report, for the calendar year 1898, contains an account
o f the labor market and government relief and statistical tables show­
ing the demand and supply of labor by occupations and by months and
localities, rates of wages paid, the number of families granted govern­
ment relief, and the expenditure for such relief.
In 1898 6,272 persons were registered as seeking employment, of
whom 6,074 either obtained engagements through the bureau or were
assisted to reach localities where work was available. The latter are
required to refund the money advanced for fare. An average of 297
families were granted government relief during the year. The total

This report is the result of an inquiry undertaken by order of the
Federal railway department of Switzerland with regard to the number
of persons employed in the railway service in Switzerland, their sala­
ries, wages, and social condition. It was undertaken because much
misunderstanding existed as to the actual wage conditions of railway
employees, and also because it was deemed advantageous on the eve of
the transfer of the principal roads to the Government to have accurate
statistics regarding the railway personnel for use not only in formu­
lating a compensation act ( B esoldungsgesetz ), but also in preparing
regulations for pension and aid funds for railway employees.
The data relate to conditions on January 1, 1898. Schedules of
inquiry were distributed by the railway authorities among their respec­
tive employees, and the schedules returned were revised by these
authorities before being tabulated. Part I of the present report relates
to salaried employees and wage workers employed by contract, while
Part II relates to other employees and also contains a recapitulation of
the whole personnel.
The following table gives a summary of persons employed and their
salaries and wages on January 1, 1898:

R. A. Williams was arrested on a warrant issued by the county court
of Morgan County, Ga., and placed in the county jail on his failure to
give bond pending his trial. Thereupon he made application to the
judge of the superior court within and for that county for a writ of
habeas corpus by petition, alleging that the warrant under which he
was arrested charged him with a violation of the 10th paragraph
of section 2 of the general-tax act of Georgia of 1898, and that his
restraint was illegal, because that part of the act was in conflict with
clause 3 of section 8, and with clause 5 of section 9, of article 1, and
with section 2 of article 4 of the Constitution of the United States;
and also with the 14th Amendment. The writ of habeas corpus was
duly issued, and the application heard on the return thereto, which
resulted in the denial of the petition by the superior court, and the
remanding of Williams to custody. The case was then carried to the
supreme court of Georgia, where, on April 11, 1900, judgment was
rendered affirming the judgment of the superior court.
Section 2 of the tax act of 1898, above referred to, provides “ that
in addition to the ad valorem tax on real estate and personal property,
as required by the constitution and provided for in the preceding sec­
tion, the following specific taxes shall be levied and collected for each
o f said fiscal years 1899 and 1900.”
Then follow paragraphs imposing poll taxes, and taxes on lawyers,
etc., the 10th of which reads as follows:
Upon each emigrant agent, or employer or employee of such agents,
doing business in this State, the sum of $500 for each county in which
such business is conducted.
Section 4 provides, among other things, that “ any person failing to
register with the ordinary, or, having registered, failing to pay the
tax as herein required, shall be liable to indictment for misdemeanor,
976




DECISIONS OF COURTS AFFECTING LABOR.

977

and, on conviction, shall be fined not less than double the tax, or be
imprisoned as prescribed by section 1039 of volume 3 of the code of
1895, or both, in the discretion of the court.55
After the rendition of judgment by the supreme court of the State,
Williams carried the case upon a writ of error to the Supreme Court
of the United States, which rendered its judgment December 10,1900,
and affirmed the action of the State courts. The following is quoted
from the opinion of the United States Supreme Court, which was
delivered by Mr. Chief Justice Fuller:
As a preliminary to considering the validity of the provision [of the
tax law] the court [the supreme court of Georgia], as matter of original
definition, and in view of prior legislation (Acts, 1876, p. 17; Acts,
1877, p. 120; Code, 1882, sec. 4598, a, b, c), held that the term 46emi­
grant agent,55 as used in the general tax act of 1898, meant a person
engaged in hiring laborers in Georgia to be employed beyond the
limits of that State.
On behalf of plaintiff in error it is insisted that paragraph 10 is in
conflict with the 14th Amendment because it restricts the right of the
citizen to move from ope State to another, and so abridges his privi­
leges and immunities; impairs the natural right to labor, and is class
legislation, discriminating arbitrarily and without reasonable basis.
Undoubtedly the right of locomotion, the right to remove from one
)lace to another according to inclination, is an attribute of personal
iberty, and the right, ordinarily, of free transit from or through the
territory of any State is a right secured by the 14th Amendment and
by other provisions of the Constitution.
And so as to the right to contract. The liberty of which the depri­
vation, without due process of law is forbidden, 44means not only the
right of the citizen to be free from the mere physical restraint of his
person, as by incarceration, but the term is deemed to embrace the
right of the citizen to be free in the enjoyment of all his faculties; to
be free to use them in all lawful ways; to live and work where he
will; to earn his livelihood by any lawful calling; to pursue any liveli­
hood or avocation, and for that purpose to enter into all contracts
which may be proper, necessary, and essential to his carrying out to
a successful conclusion the purposes above mentioned; * * *
although it may be conceded that this right to contract in relation to
ersons or property or to do business within the jurisdiction of the
tate may be regulated and sometimes prohibited when the contracts
or business conflict with the policy of the State as contained in its
statutes.55 (Allgeyer v . Louisiana, 165 U. S., 589, 591; 41 L. ed.,
835, 836; 17 Sup. Ct; Rep., 427; Holden v. Hardy, 169 U. S., 366; 42
L. ed., 780; 18 Sup. Ct. Rep., 383.)
But this act is a taxing act, by the 2d section of which taxes are
levied on occupations, including, by paragraph 10, the occupation of
hiring persons to labor elsewhere. If it can be said to affect the free­
dom of egress from the State, or the freedom of contract, it is only
incidentally and remotely. The individual laborer is left free to come
and go at pleasure, and to make such contracts as he chooses, while
those whose business it is to induce persons to enter into labor con­
tracts and to change their location, though left free to contract, are
subjected to taxation in respect of their business as other citizens are.

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

The general legislative purpose is plain, and the intention to pro­
hibit this particular business can not properly be imputed from the
amount of the tax payable by those embarked in it, even if we were
at liberty on this record to go into that subject.
Nor does it appear to us that the objection of unlawful discrimina­
tion is tenable. The point is chiefly rested on the ground that, inas­
much as the business of hiring persons to labor within the State is not
subjected to a like tax, the equal protection of the laws secured by
the 14th Amendment is thereby denied. W e are unable to say that
such a discrimination, if it existed, did not rest on reasonable grounds,
and was not within the discretion of the State legislature. (American
Sugar Ref. Co. v . Louisiana, 179 U. S., — ; ante, p. 43; 21 Sup. Ct.
Rep., 43, and cases cited.) In fine, we hold that the act does not con­
flict with the 14th Amendment in the particulars named.
Counsel for plaintiff in error further contends that the imposition
o f the tax can not be sustained because in contravention of clause 3 of
section 8 and clause 5 of section 9, of article 1 of the Constitution.
Clause 5 of section 9 provides that “ no tax or duty shall be laid on
articles exported from any State.” The facts of this case do not bring
it within the purview of this prohibition upon the power of Congress,
and it need not be considered as a substantive ground of objection.
The real question is, Does this law amount to a regulation of commerce
among the States? To answer that question in the affirmative is to
hold that the emigrant agent is engaged in such commerce, and that
this tax is a restriction thereon.
These agents were engaged in hiring laborers in Georgia to be
employed beyond the limits of the State. O f course, transportation
must eventually take place as the result of such contracts, but it does
not follow that the emigrant agent was engaged in transportation or
that the tax on his occupation was levied on transportation. In
Hooper v . California, 155 U. S., 648, 655; 39 L. ed., 297,300; 5 Inters.
Com. Rep., 610; 15 Sup. Ct. Rep., 207, it was held that a section of
the Penal Code of California was not a regulation of commerce. Mr.
Justice White there adverts to the real distinction on which the gen­
eral rule and its exceptions are based, “ and which consists in the
difference between interstate commerce or an instrumentality thereof
on the one side, and the mere incidents which may attend the carrying
on of such commerce on the other. This distinction has always been
carefully observed and is clearly defined by the authorities cited. I f
the power to regulate interstate commerce applied to all the incidents
to which said commerce might give rise ana to all contracts which
might be made in the course of its transaction, that power would
embrace the entire sphere of mercantile activity in any way connected
with trade between the States, and would exclude State control over
many contracts purely domestic in their nature.”
The imposition o f this tax falls within the distinction stated. These
labor contracts were not in themselves subjects of traffic between the
States, nor was the business of hiring laborers so immediately con­
nected with interstate transportation or interstate traffic that it could
be correctly said that those who followed it were engaged in interstate
commerce, or that the tax on that occupation constituted a burden on
such commerce.
Nor was the imposition in violation of section 2 of article 4, as there
was no discrimination between the citizens of other States and the
citizens of Georgia. Judgment affirmed.

the court of criminal correction of St. Louis, Mo.,
Edwards Whitaker, president of the St. Louis Transit Company, was
convicted of violating an act approved March 5, 1897, to he found on
page 102 of the acts of Missouri of 1897. Said act and title reads as
follows:
An act requiring persons, associations, and corporations owning or
operating street cars to provide for the well-being and protection of
employees.
S e c t io n 1. Every electric street car, other than trail cars, which
are attached to motor cars, shall be provided during the months of
November, December, January, February, and March of each year,
at the front end, with a screen composed of glass or other material
which shall fully and completely protect the driver, motorman, gripman, or other person stationed on such front end and guiding or direct­
ing said car from wind and storm.
S e c . 2. Any person, agent, or officer of any association or corpora­
tion violating any of the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty
of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be fined in a sum not
less than twenty-five dollars nor more than one hundred dollars for
each day that any car belonging to or used by such person, association,
or corporation is permitted to remain unprovided with the screens
required by section 1 of this act. And it is hereby made the duty of
the prosecuting attorney of each county in the State to enforce the
provisions of this act, for which he shall be entitled, in addition to his
ordinary fee or salary, to one-fourth of the fine recovered.
Whitaker appealed the case to the supreme court of Missouri, attack­
ing the constitutionality of the act. While the court in its decision,
which was rendered February 12, 1901, reversed the action of the
lower court, yet its action was taken upon technical grounds, and the
constitutionality of the act was upheld. Upon this point Judge Gantt,
who delivered the opinion of the court, spoke as follows:
Passing now to the next objection—that the act is unconstitutional,
because the title gives no indication of the character of the act itself—
we think it is untenable. Sound policy and legislative convenience
dictate a liberal construction of the title and subject-matter of statutes
to maintain their validity. Infraction of this constitutional clause
must be plain and obvious to be recognized as fatal. This has been
the uniform rule of construction of this provision of our constitution.
It is only necessary that the title shall indicate the subject of it in a
general way without entering into details. All auxiliary provisions
properly attaching to the main subject, and constituting with it one
whole, mav be embraced within the enactment. (State v . Boekstruck,
136 Mo., 335; 38 S. W ., 317; State v . Bronson, 115 Mo., 271; 21
S. W ., 1125; State v . Marion Co. Ct., 128 Mo., 427; 30 S. W ., 103;
31 S. W ., 23.) Measured by these and numerous other adjudications
of this court, the title to this act was both definite and broad enough
to include the provisions of this act, all of which were germane to the
purpose expressed.




980

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

It was strenuousty contended on the argument, as well as in the
brief, that the act is offensive to the provision of our constitution
which ordains that no local or special law shall be enacted 66when a
general law can be made applicable.” (Section 53, art. 4, Const.) The
insistence is that it is special legislation, because it only applies to
electric cars, and is enacted for the protection of a particular class, to
wit, motormen on electric cars, whereas by a general law the legisla­
ture could have provided for the protection and well-being of all
street-car drivers, gripmen, and motormen, as well as to one kind
only, to wit, motormen of electric cars, who constitute particular per­
sons of a general class of laborers. As the postulate of this argument,
it is assumed that this classification is purely arbitrary. But is it so ?
This act applies throughout the State, in every town and city in which
cars are propelled by electricity, and to all motormen who guide them.
The supreme court of Ohio, in State v . Nelson, 39 N. E., 22; 26
L. R. A ., 317, met the exact question by holding that a court could
not judicially know that a cable car or a horse car is so constructed
and operated as to require the same means o f protection for operations
as is required on electric cars, and as the courts could only judge of
the operations of a statute through facts of which they can take judi­
cial notice, it refused to hold a similar statute unconstitutional.
Learned counsel urge, however, that courts “ are not required to
shut their eyes to matters of common knowledge or things in common
use.” Conceding this, is it not generally known that on a cable car
the gripman stands back near the center of the car, in a box which
protects the lower half of his body, and is protected by the roof of the
car in rainy or snowy weather, and that this grip car is constantly used
by passengers in getting on and off the train, whereas the motorman
on an electric car stands in front, with his attention necessarily given to
the means of controlling the motive power and the brake, and is much
more exposed to the cold and inclement weather of our winters than
the gripman on the cable car; and are we to assume the legislature did
not consider this difference, or their finding that there was such a dis­
tinction was contrary to the fact beyond a reasonable doubt? W e
think not. It can not be questioned that in the exercise of the police
power the legislature may enact laws to protect the health and safety
of our citizens by all reasonable regulations, and, when a given subject
is within that power, the extent to which it is to be exercised is within
the discretion of the legislature. It is not insisted that it is not a wise
and most humane provision for the protection of those whose avoca­
tion requires them to stand in front of a rapidly moving car on a bitter
cold day, often with the mercury below zero, but merely that it does
not apply to all who may suffer in sim|J&r callings. W e think the
legislature had the right to make the classification it did, and we have
no power to hold it contravened the constitution in so doing.
The charge that the act imposes cruel and unusual punishment is
without merit. Every statute imposing a fine might, by the same
token, be held cruel and unusual punishment. The way to avoid the
cruelty is to obey the law and avoid these accumulated fines.
Counsel concede that the provision granting the prosecuting attor­
ney one-fourth o f the fines to be recovered does not invalidate the
whole act. Clearly that provision offends against the constitution,
which requires the whole to be paid into the school fund, and so the
courts would require.

Again, it is said that the act is contrary to section 30 of article 2 of
the constitution of Missouri, which provides “ that no person shall be
deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.”
Inasmuch as this is a public prosecution by the State of an offense
against the public, it is difficult to dispern the relevancy of the argu­
ment and decisions to the effect that this statute deprives the motormen on electric cars of their liberty of contract. The premise upon
which the argument is based is not true. It is not true that this act
was not designed to protect the public health. This is not only its
professed purpose, but the body of the act confirms it. It is a plain,
just, and commendable police regulation. The State has an interest
in the health of its citizens, and the preservation of their lives and
manhood, and such is the obvious, unmistakable purpose of the act
under consideration. Not only has the State a direct interest in the
health of the motormen, but in the passengers, whose lives and limbs
may be imperiled if the motormen are allowea to become benumbed
from exposure. As this record does not contain any facts upon which
we could properly decide the effect of a waiver by a motorman of his
right to the protection secured to him by this act, we must decline a
further discussion of this point. W e are clear that this act in no
manner contravenes this section of our constitution, nor the four­
teenth amendment to the Federal Constitution.

This was a petition of Gilbert D. Preston for discharge on habeas cor­
pus presented to the supreme court of the State of Ohio. The peti­
tioner was deprived of his liberty under the following charge: 66Being
then and there the operator of a certain coal mine situated within said
county, and having then and there under his employ a miner who was
mining and sending to the surface coal under said employment at ton
rates, to wit, one William Brown did knowingly and purposely pass
the output of coal so mined by said miner as aforesaid over a screen
which took away a part of the value thereof before the same had been
weighed and credited to said employee, sending the same to the surface,
and before the same was accounted for at the legal rate of weights
fixed by the laws of Ohio.” The prosecution is founded on the act of
March 9, 1898 (98 Ohio Laws, p. 38), entitled “ An act to provide for
the weighing of coal before screening.” The provisions of the act are
as follows:
S e c . 295a. It shall be unlawful for any mine owner, lessee, or
operator of coal mines in this State, employing miners at bushel or
ton rates, or other quantity, to pass the output of coal mined by said
miners over any screen or other device which shall take any part from
the value thereof before the same shall have been weighed and duly
credited to the employee sending the same to the surface, and accounted
for at the legal rate of weights fixed by the laws of Ohio.




982

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR,

S e c . 295b. The provisions of this act shall also apply to the class of
workers, engaged in mines wherein the mining is done by machinery,
known as loaders; whenever the workmen are under contract to load
by the bushel, ton, or any quantity, the settlement of which is had by
weight, the output shall be weighed in accordance with the provisions
o f this act.
Section 295c provides the penalty for the violation of this act.
The supreme court rendered its decision November 27, 1900, and
granted the petition on the ground that the above statute, for a viola­
tion of which Preston had been convicted, was unconstitutional. The
opinion of the court, delivered by Chief Justice Shauck, reads, in part,
as follows:
There is no authority for vthe detention of the petitioner unless the
act o f the general assembly set out in the statement of the case is con­
stitutionally valid. That the constitution gives inviolability to the
right to make contracts and that the legislature may deny the right only
when it is required for the general welfare and when it is promotive
o f public health or morals, are propositions established by familiar
authorities, and admitted by the attorney-general. W e have, there­
fore, to consider only the purpose of this enactment, and the nature
of the contract which it assumes to forbid. Its purpose is to terminate
the rights heretofore universally recognized in this State, and often
exercised, of determining by contracts voluntarily entered into between
miners and operators the mode in which the basis of compensation to
be made by the latter to the former should be ascertained. Counsel
for the State expressly disclaim any authority in the legislature to
determine the price to be paid for mining coal, and it is true that no
such authority is assumed in this act. By the method of payment
heretofore in use, in which compensation was determined upon the
basis of screened coal, miners have become entitled to receive, and oper­
ators have become bound to make, compensation having regard to the
skill and care exercised by the miner in the prosecution of his work.
The effect of the act is that the total compensation to be paid by an
operator is to be determined by agreement, but that it must be paid
to miners without discrimination on account of their skill and care.
W hy the general assembly selected this class of laborers for discrim­
ination, why they are deemed less entitled than others to compensation
which encourages merit by rewarding it, we do not know or inquire;
for, however unjust to this class of laborers the act may be, we can
inquire only whether the general assembly had power to pass it. It
is suggested as the basis of the act that frauds may be perpetrated in
the screening and weighing of coal under the contracts heretofore
entered into. To this suggestion it is sufficient to answer that if such
danger exists it may well justify appropriate legislation for the pre­
vention o f such fraud. But this legislation does not seek to prevent
fraud, nor to provide for the health or safety of those engaged in
mining. Its sole purpose is to establish a uniform standard of com­
pensation among those upon whom it operates. That is, so far as
skill and care are concerned, it established a uniform standard of earn­
ing capacity. The standard thus to be established for all must neces­
sarily be that of the least efficient, since their efficiency can not be
increased by legislation. To withhold from merit its reward may be a

favorite object of socialism, but it is inimical to the individual rights
which are preserved by the constitution.
This act may be invalid for other reasons, but our decision is placed
upon the ground that it is an unwarranted invasion of the rights of
miners and operators to make contracts by which the former shall be
entitled to receive, and the latter obliged to make, compensation
according to the value of the service rendered and received. Petitioner

Co ., 5 8 N orth eastern R ep o rter, p a g e 8 5 6 .—Action was brought by
James L. Bodell against the above-named company to recover dam­
ages for injuries incurred by him while in its employ. His complaint
showed that at the time of the accident he was employed as a eager;
that he was working at the bottom of the shaft, and it was his
duty to push loaded cars upon the cage to be hoisted to the top; that
the cage had no sufficient covering provided by the company as
required by law, and that while pushing a car upon the same a lump
of coal fell from the top of the shaft and struck his hand, thereby
injuring him. A t the trial, in the circuit court of Clay County, Ind.,
the defendant company filed a demurrer to this complaint which the
court sustained, and rendered a judgment in its favor. The plaintiff
then appealed the case to the appellate court of the State, which ren­
dered its decision December 11, 1900, and affirmed the judgment of
the low^er court. From the opinion of the appellate court, delivered
by Judge Robinson, the following is quoted:
Section 9 of the act of June 3, 1891 (section 7469, Burns’ Rev. St.
1894; section 5480j, Horner’s Rev. St. 1897), provides “ that the owner,
operator, agent, or lessee shall cover the cages with one-fourth (i) inch
boiler plate, so as to keep safe as far as possible persons descending
into and ascending out of such shaft, and no person shall descend any
shaft when coal is ascending in the other cage.” Section 7483, Burns’
Rev. St. 1894 (section 5480y, Horner’s Rev. St. 1897), provides a pen­
alty for the violation of any of the provisions of any section of the act.
Section 7473, Burns’ Rev. St. 1894 (section 5480n, Horner’s Rev. St.
1897), reads, “ That for any injury to person or persons or property
occasioned by any violation of this act, or any willful failure to com­
ply with any of its provisions, a right of action against the owner, oper­
ator, agent, or lessee shall accrue to the party injured for the direct
injury sustained thereby.” * * * W e can not agree with counsel
that because appellant was not ascending or descending the shaft, and
had not gone into the cage for that purpose, he could have no right of
action under the statute. The strict letter of these sections might thus
limit their application. But the manifest intention of the whole act is
to protect persons working in coal mines. It is a familiar rule that
that which was within the intention of the legislature is within the
statute, although not strictly within its letter. The general scope of
the whole statute is not limited to protecting persons only when going

up or down the shaft. When the above sections wTere enacted, the leg­
islature, as shown by the scope and title of the act, was considering
the question of regulating the working of coal mines, the weighing of
coal, providing for the safety of employees, protecting persons and
property injured. (See Acts 1879, p. 19; Acts 1891, p. 57.) Applying
the well-known rules for the interpretation of statutes, we can not
escape the conclusion that a person working in a cage at the bottom of
the shaft is as much within the reason and intention of the statute as
he is when going in and out of the mine.
The rule is well settled that if a defect in an appliance is open and
obvious alike to the master and the servant, and the servant voluntarily
continues in the service, the risk of an injury from such defect is his
own. He can assume the risk of a latent danger only when he knows
of it. But where the defect is open and obvious, and the complaining
party does not show that he had no opportunity to observe it, an aver­
ment of the want of knowledge is not enough. If he can see an open
and apparent defect by looking, the law requires that he shall look.
He can not fail or refuse to use his eyes, and then be heard to say that
he did not know. The test is not whether he did comprehend the
danger, but whether he ought to have comprehended it, and he is
chargeable with a knowledge of such dangers as he might have known
of by exercising ordinary care. If the defect or danger is open and
obvious, though it exists through the employer’s negligence, an
employee of mature years will be presumed to nave knowledge of it;
and though the employer may have been negligent in the matter, the
employee is also guilty of negligence in accepting or continuing in the
service, and this becomes equivalent to contributory negligence, which
prevents a recovery.
But it is argued that under what is known as the “ Coal-mining
statute” [the sections referred to above], the doctrine of assumption
of the risk or of contributory negligence does not apply; that where a
person is injured through a breach of statutory duty imposed the doc­
trine of assumption of risk does not apply; and that wnere a servant
continues in the employment with the knowledge of such a breach of
such duty, and is injured, he may recover for such injury. The mere
fact that there has been a violation of a statutory duty does not relieve
the injured party from exercising due care.
It is true the statute (section 7478 [5480 n], supra) gives a right of
action to the person injured. But this right would have existed by
virtue of the common law and independently of that section. Neither
that section nor the rest of the act undertakes to say what the suitor
shall do or what he shall be excused from doing in order that he may
maintain the action. When the act was passed the doctrine of con­
tributory negligence and assumption of the risk was established
through repeated decisions of the courts. There is nothing in the act
which shows in any way that the purpose of the legislature was to
change that doctrine. Under the act the company’s negligence is made
out by showing the violation of the statute. It says nothing about
the fault, if any, of the injured party. There is nothing in the act
that indicates that the legislature intended that the injured party might
recover for the company’s negligence, although himself at fault. We
can not read this into the statute. If there is nothing in the statute
which manifestly requires a different construction it must be construed
according to common-law principles. As we construe the. statute it




DECISIONS OF COURTS AFFECTING LABOR.

985

confers no special right of action in terms. It simply makes the fail­
ure to comply with the provisions of the act, whether a negligent fail­
ure or a willful failure, an act of negligence per se on the part of the
mine owner, agent, or operator. As such the contributory negligence
of the party suing is available as a defense. As*the defect in the cov­
ering of the cage was open and obvious, and one which could bo
readily seen by appellant had he looked, we must conclude from the
averments of the complaint that the risk of danger from falling coal
was assumed by appellant. The demurrer was properly sustained.
Judgment affirmed.

v. Grand Trunk B y .
Co.,
A tlantic Reporter, page 827.— Cornelius Kilpatrick brought
suit against the above-named railway company to recover damages fo r
injuries incurred by him while in its employ. In the county court o f
Orleans County, Vt., a judgment was rendered in his favor, the case
having been submitted to the jury by the court without reference to
the question of contributory negligence. The defendant company
then carried the case to the supreme court of the State upon exceptions,
and said court rendered its decision March 12, 1900, and reversed the
judgment of the lower court. The facts in the case are fully shown
in that part of the opinion of the supreme court which is quoted below,
said opinion being delivered by Chief Justice Taft:
The injury to the plaintiff was caused by his attempting to board a
moving freight train by means of a ladder placed upon the side of a
car. V. S., section 3886, reads as follows: “ No railroad company
shall run cars of its own with ladders or steps to the top of the same,
on the sides of its cars, but said ladders or steps shall be on the ends,
or inside of the cars.” Section 3887 provides that a railroad corpora­
tion not complying with the requirements of section 3886 shall be liable
for the damages and injuries to employees on its roads resulting from
such neglect. By force of the statute the defendant is liable for any
injury to one of its employees resulting from its neglect in not placing a.
ladder or steps upon the end or inside of a car. The car in question was
one belonging to the defendant, and it was its duty, which it failed to
perform, to equip it as provided in the section referred to. The plain­
tiff, therefore, is entitled to recover, unless barred by the fact that he
assumed the obvious dangers of the risk, or is chargeable with con­
tributory negligence. As we dispose of the case upon the question o f
contributory negligence, we do not consider whether the plaintiff is
barred from recovering by having assumed the obvious dangers of his
employment.
Did the court err in ruling that the question of contributory negli­
gence was not in the case? To entitle the plaintiff to recover, the
cause of the injury must be the negligence of the defendant, and that
only. He is entitled to no relief if the injuries resulted from negli­
gence of his own combined with that of the defendant. The rule is
the same whether the negligence is by the common law or statutory.

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

The negligence of the statutory duty may involve the person guilty
thereof in penalties, yet the law will not allow the injured person to
recover, because he himself contributes to the injury. The plaintiff
attempted to climb upon a moving car in a train which was running
faster, as he says, than he could run—moving at the rate o f eight or
nine miles an hour. It was in the evening, dark. He had a lantern
in his hand, and attempted to board the train by getting hold of the
ladder and passing upon it to the top of the car. In his first attempt
he failed, tried again, and was injured before he could pass up the lad­
der to the top of the car. There can be but one inference from the
testimony in the case, and that is that the plaintiff was guilty of neg­
ligence in attempting, in the nighttime, with a lantern in his hand, to
board a freight train running as rapidly as he says this was—that it
must be held to be negligent for any person so to do. The plaintiff,
being thus negligent, as matter of law, was not entitled to recover;
and the ruling of the court, therefore, that the question of contribu­
tory negligence was not in the case, was error. Judgment reversed
and cause remanded.

page 50.— Action was brought by Francis M. Conner, administrator
o f the estate of Jesse P. Conner, deceased, against Samuel Hunt, as
receiver o f the Toledo, St. Louis and Kansas City Railroad Company,
to recover damages for the death of said Conner, which resulted from
an accident caused, as alleged, by the negligence of a train conductor,
the intestate’s superior officer, whose order the intestate was obeying
in undertaking as a brakeman to perform the duty of setting the brake
o f a freight car, and the negligence of the engineer o f a train. The
suit was brought under the statute of Indiana (section 285, Burns’
Rev. $tat., 1894; section 284, Horner’s Rev. Stat., 1897) providing that
when the death of one is caused by the wrongful act or omission of
another, the personal representative of the former may maintain an
action therefor against the latter, if the former might have maintained
an action, had he lived, against the latter for an injury for the same act or
omission, etc. In the circuit court of Wells County, Ind., a judgment
was rendered for the plaintiff, and the defendant Hunt appealed the case
to the appellate court of the State, which rendered its decision Janu­
ary 4, 1901, and affirmed the judgment of the lower court. One
interesting point of the decision is shown in that part of the opinion of
the appellate court which is quoted below, said opinion having been
delivered by Judge Black:
It is agreed by counsel that at common law the facts stated in the
second paragraph [of the complaint] would not constitute a cause of
action against the appellant, for the reason that they show that the
injury to the intestate causing his death resulted from the negligence
o f his fellow-servants, the conductor and engineer; and it is agreed
that in this paragraph the right of recovery, if any, is founded upon

the provisions of the employer’s liability act of 1893 (section 7083 et
seq., Burns’ Rev. St., 1894; section 5206s et seq., Horner’s Rev. St.,
1897; acts 1893, p. 294; acts 1895, p. 148). It is expressly provided
in our employer’s liability act (Burns’ Rev. St., 1894, sec. 7085;
Horner’s Rev. St., 1897, sec.5206t) that, when death results from an
injury contemplated in the statute, “ the action shall survive and be
governed in all respects by the law now in force as to such actions;”
reference being made to the above-mentioned statute providing for
recovery when the death of one is caused by the wrongful act or omis­
sion of another. The only objection urged against the second para­
graph of complaint is thus expressed by counsel for the appellant,
referring to the statute of 1893 above mentioned: 66It will be noticed
that this enactment applies only to 6every railroad or other corpora­
tion, except municipal, operating in this State.’ This action was
brought against a receiver appointed by the United States court for
the district of Indiana, and not against a railroad or other corpora­
tion except municipal. Our contention is that this statute, being in
derogation of the common law, can not be construed or extended to
include a class of persons not expressly named in the statute itself,
and that therefore this statute can not control the liability of receiv­
ers, they not being specifically mentioned in the act.”
In the statute there is no mention of receivers, and the question is
whether or not the statute, providing by its terms for certain liabilities
of corporations only, may be construed as imposing like liabilities
upon the receiver of a corporation holding its property and carrying
on its business under appointment of the court. It is true as suggested
by counsel, that this act, being in derogation of the common law, is,
under the general rule, to be construed strictly. A chief purpose of
the legislature in the enactment of the statute was to correct the hard­
ship of the common-law rule as applied by the courts inactions against
employers to recover damages for injuries suffered by their employees
through the conduct of coemployees. The rule was not abrogated,
but was conservatively limited; the new liability created being made
to extend, not to employers carrying on their undertakings as indi­
viduals, but to those who conduct their business through corporate
combinations, by which method the affairs of business life, for vari­
ous reasons, had come to be carried on more and more—railroad cor­
porations being especially mentioned in the act. Nor was this liability
extended to the conduct of all employees b}^ which other employees
are injured, but the classes of employees for whose conduct' liability
was so imposed were designated. Within these purposed changes, the
supposed need and demand for which manifestly induced the enactment
of the law, it is to be construed so as not to extend the increased lia­
bility beyond the expressed intention of the legislature.
Though the statute thus effects a change in the common law, it is
a remedial act; and, for the purpose of advancing the remedy and
carrying into effect the true beneficial purpose, it should be liberally
construed with reference to the object uppermost in the mind of the
lawmaker. The reason for such a remedial statute applies not more
strongly to a corporation under the headship of an officer or officers
designated by its charter or selected by the corporators than to a cor­
poration managed and controlled by the court’s receiver through per­
sons who for the time being are his employees, who generally, indeed,
are the old employees of the corporation; and the remedy provided by

the egis ature would ose much of its intended effect and supposed
virtue if it can not he applied to corporations under receiverships.
A receiver of a railroad company is, in general, bound to perform
such public duties connected with the operation of the roaa as the
company was obliged to perform * * * . A receiver operating a
railway under the control of the court exercises the franchises of the
corporation for the benefit of the corporation and its creditors, and
there can be no distinction based upon any sound reason why he
should not be responsible in respect to the statutory duties of the cor­
poration as well as in regard to its common-law duties. The action
in such case is in effect against the corporate property in his posses­
sion, or substantially against the corporation in his hands for the time
being.
It can not be supposed to have been the intention of the legislature
in the enactment of the statute of 1893 in question to increase thereby
the liabilities of corporations while managed by the corporate officials,
but not while managed in substantially the same manner, so far as
their employees and the public are concerned, by receivers. Whether
a railroad be for the time under the management of a trustee or the
court’s receiver, it is within the meaning of the remedial purpose of
the provisions of this statute as truly as is a railroad operated by its
officers. To construe the statute otherwise, as we are now aisked to
do, would be sticking to the letter at the sacrifice of the meaning.

v. Smith et al., 48 A tlantic
Reporter**, page 894>-— Suit was brought in the court of common pleas
of Allegheny County, Pa., by Charles L. Flaccus against W . J. Smith
and others for an injunction. A decision was rendered in favor of
Flaccus and the defendants appealed the case to the supreme court of
the State, which rendered its decision April 15, 1901, and sustained
the action of the lower court. The facts in the case are shown in the
opinion of the supreme court, which was delivered by Judge Brown
in the following terms:
T h ir d

P e r so n s — I n j u n c t io n —Flaccus

The appellee is the proprietor of glass works at Tarentum, in the
county of Allegheny. In his .complaint he sets forth that he has been
engaged in the business of manufacturing glass bottles of various kinds,
and in and about their manufacture has been compelled to employ
divers workmen and apprentices; that the appellants and others are
members of an association known as the American Flint Glass W ork­
ers’ Union, affiliated with the American Federation of Labor; that for
a long time prior to the year 1894 he had been greatly hampered and
annoyed in his business by the control sought to be exercised over his
workmen and apprentices by the said American Flint Glass Workers’
Union and the American Federation of Labor, with which it is affili­
ated; that in the year 1894 he established his factory on an independent
basis, employing no workmen or apprentices who were connected with
either o f the associations named, and expressly requiring his said work­
men and apprentices not to be connected with the said American Flint
Glass Workers’ Union, and from that time until the filing of his bill of



DECISIONS OF COURTS AFFECTING LABOR.

989

complaint he had conducted his factory as an independent one, with
mutual satisfaction to himself and the men and apprentices employed
by him; that the appellants knew his factory was so being conducted as
an independent one, and that his workmen and apprentices were not
connected with the said American Flint Glass Workers’ Union, and
had agreed not to connect themselves with the same, and, particularly,
that his apprentices were under agreement not to so connect them­
selves; that his workmen and apprentices were working in harmony
until about September 15,1899, when the said appellants, acting under
orders of the said American Flint Glass Workers’ Union, claiming the
right of declaring strikes and otherwise interfering with the employ­
ment of labor, well knowing that his apprentices were under covenant
and agreement not to be connected with the said American Flint Glass
Workers’ Union, began to entice, and did entice, a number of them to
break their covenants or agreements and to become members of the
said union, and to become subject to the orders thereof, paramount to
his orders as their employer; and that the appellants, by so enticing
and endeavoring to entice his apprentices to break their covenants
with him by becoming members of the said union, have done that
which is contrary to equity, for which he has no adequate remedy
at law.
On the answer to the appellee’s bill of complaint, and upon testimony
taken, the court below found that Skelley, one of the appellants, had
gatherings of the apprentices of the appellee at his room in a hotel, and
persuaded them to join the union referred to; that he knew the char­
acter of the appellee’s works as an independent factory, in which mem­
bers of the union were not employed, and that his apprentices were
bound in their indentures not to join or become subject to the rules or
regulations of any such organization as he represented; that he knew
these facts at the time he swore in these apprentices as members of the
union; that the apprentices who joined the union violated the covenant
of their indenture and subjected themselves to the orders of the union,
which made obedience to it paramount to obedience to their employer;
that the object of Skelley was to break down the appellee’s factory as
a nonunion factory, either by preventing the operation of his works
or compelling him to join the union; that the apprentices who joined
the union, enticed and persuaded so to do by Skelley, violated an
express covenant of their indenture, which was one of great impor­
tance to the appellee, and Skelley so knew at the time he so enticed
them; that Skelley’s conduct and actions were very injurious to the
appellee and his business, and, if repeated and persisted in, would in
all probability utterly ruin his business; that Skelley’s codefendants,
by their counsel, openly and boldly justified him in all he did, contend­
ing that, as an officer or agent of the union, he had a perfect right to
interfere with plaintiff’s apprentices, persuade them to join the union,
and secretly swear them in as members; that if the union had that
right either Skelley or some other agent could go to Tarentum at any
time and interfere with the appellee’s apprentices and business until
it would be destroyed. To this last finding there is no exception.
This is not a controversy between the employer and employees, but
between him and certain individuals associated as a labor union,
unfriendly to the employment of independent labor, and seeking to
induce the apprentices of the employer to violate the terms of their
indentures with him. No question is here raised by the employer as

to what his employees may or may not do, and the complaint sets forth
no misconduct by them for which relief is asked. The appellants,
outsiders, having no connection with the business of the appellee, are
charged with enticing and endeavoring to entice the young men
employed by him to violate the covenants of their apprenticeships
with him, and protection is prayed for against the threatened ruin of
his business, as found by the court below.
Having reviewed all the evidence, we are not persuaded that any of
the court’s findings of fact ought to be disturbed, and, with them
before us, the only question to be determined is whether the injunc­
tion should go out. In the several statutes called to our attention by
the learned counsel for appellants we can find nothing to aid us.
The act of September 29,1770 (1 Smith’s Laws, 309), simply provides
that a minor may enter into a valid contract of apprenticeship; by
that of May 8, 1869 (P. L ., 1869, p. 1260) [Digest of 1895, p. 2017,
sec. 1], the legislature properly declared that “ it shall be lawful for
any and all classes of mechanics, journeymen, tradesmen, and laborers
to form societies and associations for their mutual aid, benefit, and
protection, and peaceably meet, discuss, and establish all necessary
by-laws, rules, and regulations to carry out the same;” and the act of
June 14, 1872 (P. L ., 1872, p. 1175) [Digest of 1895, p. 484, sec. 72],
is that “ it shall be lawful for any laborer or laborers, workingman
or workingmen, journeyman or journeymen, acting either as individ­
uals or as the member of any club, society, or association, to refuse to
work or labor for any person or persons, whenever in his, her, or
their opinion, the wages paid are insufficient or the treatment of such
laborer or laborers, workingman or workingmen, journeyman or
journeymen, by his, her, or their employer is brutal or offensive, or
the continued labor by such laborer or laborers, workingman or work­
ingmen, journeyman or journeymen, would be contrary to the rules,
regulations, or by-laws of any club, society, or organization to which
he, she, or they might belong, without subjecting any person or per­
sons so refusing to work or labor to prosecution or indictment for
conspiracy under the criminal laws of this Commonwealth.”
But nowhere does it appear in the foregoing enactments that these
intermeddling appellants had warrant for their interference between
employer ana employed, as charged in the complaint against them;
and with no apprentice, even if he is to be regarded as a “ laborer”
or “ workingman,” within the meaning of the last two acts, complain­
ing that his employer has denied him any right under either of them,
further demonstration of the inapplicability of any one of these stat­
utes to the question before us is certainty not needed.
The appellee had an unquestioned right in the conduct of his busi­
ness to employ workmen who were independent of any labor union,
and he had the further right to adopt a system of apprenticeship which
excluded his apprentices from membership in such a union.
He was responsible to no one for his reasons in adopting such a
system, and no one had a right to interfere with it to his prejudice or
injury. Such an interference with it was an interference with his
business, and, if unlawful, can not be permitted. The court found
that the interference was injurious to him, and, if allowed to continue,
would utterly ruin his business. The damages resulting from sucn
an injury are incapable of ascertainment at law, and justice demands

that specific relief be furnished in a court of equity. The test of
equity jurisdiction is the absence of a plain and adequate remedy at
law to the injured party, depending upon the character of the case as
disclosed in the pleadings. If equity alone can furnish relief, the
injunction must be issued. (Watson v. Sutherland, 5 Wall., 79; 18 L.
Ed., 580.) With this test applied to the pleadings and the facts found
by the learned judge in the court below, the decree which he made
was proper. It is now affirmed, and the appeal from it is dismissed
at the costs of the appellants.

Stuart v. Poole, 38 Southeastern Reporter, page
—
In an action brought by G. E. Poole against J. H. Stuart and tried in
the superior court of Richmond county, Ga., a judgment was rendered
in favor of the plaintiff, Poole, and the defendant, Stuart, carried the
case, upon a writ of error, to the supreme court of the State, which
rendered its decision February 28, 1901, and reversed the decision of
the lower court. The facts in the case are stated in the opinion of the
court, delivered by Justice Lumpkin, and the same reads, practically
in full, as follows:
“ L aborer”—

The only question presented by the bill of exceptions in the present
case is whether or not the wages of the plaintiff in error were exempt
from the process of garnishment on the ground that •he was a
44laborer,” within the meaning of section 4732 of the Civil Code. The
case was tried in a justice’s court upon an agreed statement of facts,
and a judgment was therein rendered subjecting Stuart’s wages to the
garnishment. He sued out a certiorari, to the overruling of which he
excepted. From the agreed statement of facts it appeared that he was
a “ street-railway conductor,” and that his duties as such were as fol­
lows: 64To keep the car in general order; to couple and uncouple trail
cars when used; to keep lights dusted off and in proper condition; to
keep the guard rails of the car in proper position; to attend to the trolley
and keep it in place; to keep the seats of the car turned; to help pas­
sengers on and off the car; to help put the car back on the track if it
gets off, and to help remove all obstructions from the track; to change
switches when there are switches, but not to open or close frogs; to
get off and flag every railroad crossing; to look out for accidents at the
rear of the car.”
It further appeared from the agreed statement of facts that: 44The
conductor and motorman have joint charge of the car. The conductor
gives the order for starting and stopping, except that the motorman
stops the car of his own motion for passengers who hail the ear or
who themselves ring the bell to stop. The conductor collects
fares and issues transfers. As to keeping schedules, rule 52 of the
duties of conductors,” as promulgated by the railway company of
which Stuart was an employee, 44shows that 4conductors must keep
the correct time as shown by their company’s standard clock. Cars
must be run closely to schedule time, and whenever a car is off sched­
ule the conductor must be prepared to give a reasonable explanation of




BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

992

the cause. Unreliable watches will not serve as an excuse.’ The
motorman is also responsible for running the car on schedule time*
and the same requirements are made of him as to keeping schedule
time.”
W e are of the opinion that the magistrate reached the wrong con­
clusion from this state of facts, and that the superior court erred in
not sustaining the certiorari. The test for determining whether or
not a given employee is a “ laborer,” within the meaning of the abovementioned section of the code, was laid down in the case of Oliver v.
Hardware Co., 98 Ga., 249; 25 S. E., 403, and is as follows: “ If the
contract of employment contemplated that the [employee’s] services
were to consist mainly of work requiring mental skill or business
capacity, and involving the exercise of his intellectual faculties, rather
than work the doing of which properly would depend upon a mere
physical power to perform ordinary manual labor, he would not be a
laborer. If, on the other hand, the work which the contract required
the [employee] to do was, in the main, to be the performance of such
labor as that last above indicated, he would be a laborer.”
Every occupation, however menial, involves the exercise of some
degree of sense or judgment, and every calling, however exalted, car­
ries with it the performance of work which partakes more or less of
the nature of drudgery. In the light of the decision in the Oliver
case and of the cases upon which it was founded, we think the present
case argues itself. In our opinion the agreed statement of facts nec­
essarily conveys the idea that the major portion of the work required
o f Stuart was of a character depending more “ upon a mere physical
power to perform manual labor” than upon the possession by him of
“ mental skill or business capacity * * * involving the exercise
of his intellectual faculties.” We*also think it quite apparent that the
greater portion of Stuart’s time must have been occupied in perform­
ing labor of the former and not of the latter kind. On the whole,
therefore, it is our judgment that he should, under the facts appearing,
have been classed as a laborer whose wages were exempt from garnish­
ment. J udgment reversed.

March 27,1901, and decided that where a servant, injured while in the
employment of his master, executed a release to the master in part

consideration of being retained in the same capacity in the master’s
employ, and returned to work in such capacity, but afterwards volun­
tarily accepted other work from the master which was less remunera­
tive, and retained the other consideration paid by the master for the
release, he can not withdraw from such employment and maintain an
action against the master for such injuries. In the opinion of the
court, delivered by Judge Key, the following appears:
This is a personal injury suit resulting in a verdict and judgment
for the plaintiff. The defendant has appealed, and we sustain the
sixth assignment of error, complaining of the action of the court in
ref using the following special instruction: “ If in this case you find
from the evidence that, as a consideration in part of the release read in
evidence by the defendant, the plaintiff was promised work in the
service of the defendant in the same capacity in which he had hereto­
fore labored, and that this was one of the moving causes inducing
plaintiff to execute said release, and that plaintiff did thereafter return
to the employment of the defendant company in the same capacity in
which he had before that time labored, but that thereafter, at the
instance of the defendant, he accepted employment in a different line
of work less remunerative, with full knowledge of such fact and of
the nature and compensation of the work, and entered upon same,
retaining the consideration paid by defendant, this, in law, would con­
stitute an election to engage in such different service; and if there­
after the plaintiff resigned from such service voluntarily he will be
without remedy as to any right of recovery against the defendant;
and if you so believe you will find for the defendant.” This charge
stated the law correctly on a phase of the case presented by the evi­
dence and not covered by the court’s charge.

decision of the lower court. The opinion of the supreme court,*
delivered by Judge Calhoon, reads, in part, as follows:
W e do not think it proper to reverse, under the conflict of the evi­
dence as to whether the death resulted from the injury or another
cause; the more especially for the reason that the widow sued both
for death and for pain and anguish between the injury and the death.
This she could do under the statute of Louisiana (Pamph. Acts 1884,
p. 94) in that State, wherein the damage was done; and, by comity,
she may do so here. Since this case is controlled by the law of
Louisiana, in the absence of any express statute there like ours on the
subject of fellow-servants, we look to the decisions of her supreme
court to ascertain her law, and we find them uniformly holding to the
doctrine that the conductor is a vice-principal, and that the company
is personally present in him and affected by his negligence. This
being true, it seems immaterial that the decisions here expressly fol­
low the Supreme Court of the United States, which has receded from
that holding. Affirmed,

v. Southern My. Go., 37 Southeastern Reporter,
page 515.—Action was brought by S. B. Jeffreys against the abovenamed company to recover damages for personal injuries incurred by
him while iii its employ. He sustained injuries while on the defend­
ant’s train on March 8,1897, and subsequently, on October 30,1897, he
was injured by stepping into a hole in the platform of defendant’s
depot. On this latter date he executed a release of his claim for dam­
ages, and in the trial of the case in the superior court of Guilford
County, N. C., this release was construed as a release of his claim for
damages for the injuries incurred on both the above-mentioned dates,
and a judgment was rendered in favor of the defendant railroad com­
pany. The plaintiff, Jeffreys, appealed the case to the supreme court
of the State, which rendered its decision December 19,1900, reversing
the judgment of the lower court and ordering a new trial upon the
theory that the release could only be construed as a release of the
claim for damages for the injuries incurred upon the latter date,
October 30,1897. The opinion of the supreme court was delivered by

BULLETIN OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.

It will be seen that the clause relied upon by the defendant does not
pretend to be in itself a release of anything, but simply undertakes to
construe the foregoing clauses in a manner directly contrary to their
letter and spirit. It says that a release which by its express terms is
confined to “ injuries received on the night of October 30,1897, caused
by stepping in a hole in platform on south side of old freight depot,
Greensboro, N. C.,” shall be taken as intending to cover all other
injuries arising from any like cause of complaint. It further construes
“ any like cause of complaint” as meaning any kind of personal injury.
If it so intended, why did it not say so in plain words, and simply say:
“ In consideration of the payment to him of forty dollars in money,
S. B. Jeffreys hereby releases the Southern Railway Company from all
claims whatsoever for damages for personal injuries of any nature
received by him at any time heretofore through the negligence of the
said railway company or any of its employees.” Such a release would
have required fewer words and less trouble, and would have been less
liable to misconstruction. It is evident that this release was not writ­
ten by the plaintiff. It bears on its face unmistakable evidence of its
origin. It was probably a printed form prepared with great care by
the defendant for the purpose of meeting all possible contingencies,
foreseen and unforeseen.
As it clearly appears that no other part of the paper even pretends
to release any claim for injuries received by the plaintiff on March 8,
1897, it follows that the clause in question is a separate and independ­
ent release, if a release at all; that is, if it releases anything, it must
release a separate and independent cause of action, not alluded to in
any other part of the contract. It is, therefore, if viewed as an addi­
tional release, wholly without consideration, as the contract distinctly
states that the $40, the only consideration therein mentioned, was paid
on account of the injuries received on October 30, 1897. Being, at
best, equivocal in terms, and utterly without consideration, should it
be upheld as construed by the defendant? W e think not. The receipt
o f the plaintiff at the bottom of the contract expressly states that the
$40 is “ in full of above account;” the only account stated being that
for injuries received on October 30,1897. W e are clearly o f the opin­
ion that the legal effect of the instrument is to release only the cause
of action therein specifically set forth. W e think that the contract
itself, on its face, does not amount to a release of the present cause of
action. Therefore there was error in nonsuiting the plaintiff in the

herein shall affect the priority of a mortgage or deed of trust given to secure the pur­
chase money for the land, if the same be recorded within ten days from the date of
the acknowledgment thereof. W hen a mortgage or deed of trust of real estate
securing advances thereafter to be made for the purpose of erecting buildings and
improvements thereon is given, or when an owner of lands contracts with a builder
for the sale of lots and the erection of buildings thereon, and agrees to advance
moneys toward the erection of such buildings, the lien hereinbefore authorized shall
have priority to all advances made after the filing of said notices of lien, and the lien
shall attach to the right, title, and interest of the owner in said building and land to
the extent of all advances which shall have become due after the filing of such notice
of such lien, and shall also attach to and be a lien on the right, title, and interest of
the person so agreeing to purchase said land at the time of the filing of said notices
of lien. W hen a building shall be erected or repaired by a lessee or tenant for life
or years, or a person having an equitable estate or interest in such building or land
on which it stands, the lien created by this act shall only extend to and cover the
interest or estate of such lessee, tenant, or equitable owner.
Sec. 1246. How lien enforced.— The proceeding to enforce the lien hereby given
shall be a bill in equity, which shall contain a brief statement of the contract on
which the claim is founded, the amount due thereon, the time when the notice was
filed with the clerk, and a copy thereof served on the owner or his agent, if so served,
and the time when the building or the work thereon was completed, with a descrip­
tion of the premises and other material facts; and shall pray that the premises be sold
and the proceeds of sale applied to the satisfaction of the lien. If such suit be brought
by any person entitled, other than the principal contractor, the latter shall be made
a party defendant, as well as all other persons who may have filed notices of liens, as
aforesaid. A ll or any number of persons having liens on the same property may
join in one suit, their respective claims being distinctly stated in separate paragraphs;
and if several suits are brought by different claimants and are pending at the same
time, the court may order them to be consolidated.
Sec. 1247. Decree of sale.— If the right of the complainant, or of any of the parties
to the suit, to the lien herein provided for shall be established, the court shall decree
a sale of the land and premises or the estate and interest therein of the person who,
as owner, contracted for the erection, repair, improvement of, or addition to the build­
ing, as aforesaid.
Sec. 1248. Subcontractor preferred to contractor.— If the original contractor and the
persons contracting or employed under him shall both have filed notices of liens, as
aforesaid, the latter shall first be satisfied out of the proceeds of sale before the original
contractor, but not in excess of the amount due him , and the balance, if any, of said
amount shall be paid to him.
Sec. 1249. Distribution.— If one, or some only, of the persons employed under the
original contractor shall have served notice on the owner, as aforesaid, before pay­
ments made by him to the original contractor, said party or parties shall be entitled
to priority of satisfaction out of said proceeds to the amount of such payments; but,
subject to this provision, if the proceeds of sale, after paying thereout the costs of the
suit, shall be insufficient to satisfy the liens of said parties employed under the original
contractor the said proceeds shall be distributed ratably among them to the extent of
the payments accruing to the original contractor subsequently to the service of notice
on the owner by said parties, as aforesaid.
Sec. 1250. Several buildings.— In case of labor done or materials furnished for the
erection or repair of two or more buildings joined together and owned by the same
person or persons, it shall not be necessary to determine the amount of work done or
materials furnished for each separate building, but only the aggregate amount upon
all the buildings so joined, and the decree may be for the sale of all the buildings and
the land on which they are erected as one building, or they may be sold separately if
it shall seem best to the court.
Sec. 1251. W hen suit to be commenced.— A ny person entitled to a lien, as afore­

the building or repairs aforesaid, on his failure to do which the said lien shall cease
to exist, unless his said claim be not due at the expiration of said periods, in which
case the action must be commenced within three months after the said claim shall
have become due.
Sec. 1252. Extent of ground bound by lien.— If there be any contest as to the
dimensions of the ground claimed to be subjected to the lien aforesaid, the court shall
determine the same upon the evidence and describe the same in the decree of sale.
Sec. 1253. Entry of satisfaction.— W henever any person having a lien by virtue
hereof shall have received satisfaction of his claim and cost, he shall, on the demand,
and at the cost of the person interested, enter said claim satisfied, in the clerk’ s office
aforesaid, and on his failure or refusal so to do he shall forfeit fifty dollars to the
party aggrieved, and all damages that the latter may have sustained by reason of such
failure or refusal.
Sec. 1254. Payment into court and release.— In any suit to enforce a lien hereunder,
the owner of the building and premises to which such lien may have attached, as
aforesaid, may be allowed to pay into court the amount claimed by the lienor, and
such additional amount, to cover interest and costs, as the court may direct, or he
may file a written undertaking, with two or more sureties, to be approved by the
court, to the effect that he and they will pay the judgment that may be recovered
and costs, which judgment shall be rendered against ml the persons so undertaking.
On the payment of said money into court, or the approval of such undertaking, the
property shall be released from such lien, and any money so paid in shall be subject
to the final decree of the court. No such undertaking shall be approved by the court
until the complainant shall have had at least two days’ notice of the defendant’ s
intention to apply to the court therefor, which notice shall give the names and
residences of the persons intended to be offered as sureties and the time when the
motion for such approyal w ill be made, and such sureties shall make oath, if
required, that they are worth, over and above all debts and liabilities, double the
amount of said lien. The complainant may appear and object to such approval.
Sec. 1255. Undertaking to discharge liens before suit.-—Such an undertaking as
above mentioned may be offered before any suit brought in order to discharge the
property from existing liens, in which case notice shall be given as aforesaid to the
parties whose liens it is sought to have discharged, and the same proceedings shall
be had as above directed in relation to the undertaking to be given after the com­
mencement of the suit, and said undertaking shall be to the effect that the owner and
his said sureties will pay any judgment that may be rendered in any suit that may
thereafter be brought for the enforcement of said lien.
Sec. 1256. Decree against sureties.— If such undertaking be approved before any
suit brought, such suit shall be a suit in equity against the owner, to which the
sureties may be made parties; if the undertaking be approved after suit brought,
the said sureties shall ipso facto become parties to the suit, and in either case the
decree of the court shall be against the sureties as well as the owner.
Sec. 1257. No action by subcontractor against owner.— No subcontractor, material
man, or workman employed under the original contractor shall be entitled to a per­
sonal judgment or decree against the owner of the premises for the amount due to him
from said original contractor, except upon a special promise of such owner, in writing,
for a sufficient consideration, to be answerable for the same.
S ec. 1258. Judgment for deficiency upon a sale.— In any suit brought to enforce a
lien by virtue of the provisions aforesaid, if the proceeds of the property affected
thereby shall be insufficient to satisfy such lien, a personal judgment for the defi­
ciency m ay be given in favor of the lien or against the owner of the premises or the
original contractor, as the case may be, whichever contracted with him for the labor
or materials furnished by him , provided such person be a party to the suit and shall
have been personally served with process therein.
Sec. 1259. W harves and lots.—A n y person who shall furnish materials or labor in
filling up any lot or in constructing any wharf thereon, or dredging the channel of
the river in front of any wharf, under any contract with the owner, shall be entitled
to a lien for the value of such work or materials on said lot and wharf upon the same
conditions and to be enforced in the same manner as in the case of work done in the
erection of buildings, as hereinbefore provided.
Sec. 1260. Other liens.— Any mechanic or artisan who shall make, alter, or repair
any article of personal property at the request of the owner shall have a lien thereon
for his just and reasonable charges for his work done and materials furnished, and

S ection 1. The governor is hereby authorized and directed to appoint within thirty
days after the passage of this act, a commission of four electors of the State, not more

said commission to thoroughly investigate the condition of the prisoners confined in
the various penal and reformatory institutions of the State and of the various workhouses of the State; and to familiarize itself with the manner of employing the
inmates of all of said institutions. The said commission, in the prosecution of such
investigation, shall have the power to send for persons and papers. The said com­
mission shall, in its discretion, also visit similar institutions in other States of the
Union where different systems of employing convict labor is in force; to thoroughly
investigate the relations which convict labor in such other States sustains to the free
labor of such States; to gather such information and facts at the institutions so vis­
ited as may be of use in determining what system can be devised to furnish remu­
nerative ana healthful employment to the inmates of the penal and reformatory insti­
tutions of this State and of the various workhouses in the State in such manner as
w ill conflict as little as possible with the interest and welfare of free labor, and such
as w ill prepare the inmates of said institutions, after their discharge therefrom, for
employment and qualify them , as far as may be, for honest self-support. If said
commission shall suggest any change or changes in the manner of employing the labor
of the inmates of the various penal and reformatory institutions of tne State, includ­
ing the workhouses of the State, it shall thoroughly investigate and determine what
amount of money w ill be required to be expended by the State for new machinery,
tools and raw material in order that such changes may be made effective.
S ec . 2. Said commission, in the prosecution of its work, shall give full consideration
to the employment now furnished the inmates of the benevolent institutions of the
State, saia employment being essential to the successful administration of said benevo­
lent institutions, and to all of the laws of the State bearing upon the commitment and
detention of prisoners and their reformation.
S ec . 3. The said commission shall make a full and complete report of the results of
its investigation, with its suggestions, to the governor of the State of Ohio not later
