CHJCAC.O, DEC., 18.—The confu.enoe on
arbitration and conc;r.iaJtion, was
enlivened during the day by a* debate be-
tween Samuel Gompers, president of the
Amoricen Federation of L^ibor, find Hug"h
L. Lusk. ex-member of jwrliament of
Neiw Zealand. The fen.-: tide New Zeal-
anwr during the forenoon turned aside
from h's pre? cured add re-« to express dis-
pleasure at the de<-:.tl-atkm made by Mr.
Oompera In his address lost night.
The labor leader n#ntioned asserted
thai he wanted to see labor organisations
retain-the privilege of striking When they
pleased, why they pleased, or merely be-
cause they pleased. "That Is no'; liber-
ty," cried Mr. Lusk. "It is license."
At this moment Mr., Gompd.-s entered.
The speaker continued:
"Mr. G-oraprr.-- wants conciliation, and
he says you can never have any conclll-
intlon unless you are irojdv to cut one
another's throat*. Well, If t'hat Is the un-
fortunate condition of the people of Am-
erica, I am Fo ry for them. We are not
pn anxious to cut ono another's ehroats
whore I oame from. I wish Mr. Gompers
had taken fhe tl-ouble to And 'out whit
our compulsory arbitration law Is before
tie told you about It. but, as he has not,
I am obliged ' do It f xr him."
During the afternoon Mr. Gompers sc-
rit-'-d the athte ana reiterated his asser-
tions of the night I previous.
"We do no:." he declared, "clutch each
ot'hers throats untie: warily, but I would
rather have the rlgb! to clutch at a
man's flhroat than to have my arms am
putaited. The compul*ory tabo-r law s
equivalent to the amputation referred to
I want labor to .have the rr.-ngth of a
giant, but to u>e that strength gently."
Following these two speeches iwetv
paffAwlohed In, and then Mr. Lusk again
recurred the floor. He explained at
length th~ working* of the arbitration
court of New Zealand, generally talking
Straight at the lnobr president .
"You would cut my arm off in your
country," Mild Mr. Gompers, speaking
from his scar.
"If you were goorl we wouldn't ampu-
tate your arms'." replied the New Zeal-
lander. "hut wo might enlarge your
head."
A lively exchange of questions and im-
agers which bewildered the audience fol
lowed.

Agent Jensen has advised the depart-

Is that he does notexldbit sufficient Inter-
