Tle Laborer XJnlom and tb Steva-
The following notice has been
served upon each of the "boss" steve
dores engaged in business in this
city :
The Laborers1 Union, at a meeting
held on the 29th day of August, 1887,
nave made the following wages: For
stowing cotton headers $5.00 per
day; screwmen $4.00 per day. Work
rone on the etent-honr system,
and the above rates to go into effect
on and after the 10th day of Septem
ber, 1887.
The notice is signed by E. M. Green,
president, and John J. Hill, recording
secretary of the Union, which num
bers some six or seven hundred col
ored men as its members.
it is understood that the employ
ing stevedores are not disposed to
aeceptthese terms, which it is alleged,
are higher than at other ports; that
at other places $4 per day for screw
men, and $4.50 for headers is
paid nine hours constituting a
day's work. It is claimed,, far
ther, that the labor here is not of
a class that will justify the payment
of what are regarded as exorbitant
wages.
The Messrs. Kure Bros., employing
stevedores, have determined to meet
tnis demand by engaging a force of,
white laborers, and have already em
ployed about fifty trained long-shoremen,
principally from Charleston, S.
C, who will be here in a few days. :
