Trade Union Tyranny.

A Persecuted Workman Awarded Damages,

A case of considerable interest to trade ! Unionists came before Mr Justice Wills and a jury at the Manchester Assizes on April i 19th. The plaintiff was Sidney Joseph, j Thomas, a working joinev of Warrington, and the defendants were the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and Joiners, which has its head offices in Manchester, and the action was brought to recover damages against the union for unlawfully procuring the dismissal of the plaintiff from his employment and for conspiring to prevent employers giving him employment, Mr Acton and Mr Hutton represented the plaintiff, and Mr Shee, K.C., and Mr Wil kinson appeared for the society. Mr Acton stated that in effect the action ■was brought against the society for boy cotting the plaintiff. Up to the summer of 1900 Thomas had not been a member of a trade union. He was a steady and excep tionally skilful workman. In 1900 there was a big strike in the engineering trade, and Thoma3, who was at work in the non- Union shop, was induced to join the strikers. He received strike pay for several weeks, and was then sent by the union to a job at Buxfcon. About this time he applied for membership of the union, and paid a pro posal fee of 2s 6d. t pon a rinish of the Buxton job the plaintiff returned to War rington, where he got another engagement in a union shop, but it only lasted a short time, the plaintiff.finding himself out of em- j ployment, and being bard up, and having ( a wife and five children to support, then j took a situation with aMr Naylor, whose place was a non-union shop. Subsequently Thomas applied to be admitted as a full member of the union, and desired to make the necessary payments, which he had not up to then been able to afford. He was, however, refused. Thomas then got em ployment with a Mr Davenport, who was at the time building the Technical School in Warrington. The local branch of the union thereupon sent a deputation to Mr Bramhall (Mr Davenport's manager), and Mr Bissell, the foreman joiner, the last named being a member ot the society. This was early in December last year. They told Mr Bramhall that Thomas was not a member of the union, and Mr Bram hall said he never asked him if he was when he engaged him. adding that at the same time he took one or two other men i whom he knew were not members. "Yes," said the delegates,l. " but they never worked at INaylor's. Thomas did. If Thomas stays with you all our men shall come out." The result of the threat was that, as the firm desired to avoid a strike, Thomas was given two hours' notice to leave his work. After this Thomas went hither and thither in search of employment, but he failed to get it, and he was brought to the verge of starvation.

In summing up the Judge said the real question for the jury was whether the action of the delegates was taken to pro mote the legitimate interests of the society or to vindictively puiaish Thomas for having taken piecework. If they thought the real motive was to advance thoir trade interests and not to vindicitively punish Thomas, their verdict ought to be for the defendants; but if they thought the guiding motive of the action that was taken was to punish him, then they ought to say so by their verdict. The jury answered the questions to the effect that the action of the society was taken with the view to punish Thomas, and assessed damages in the plaintiff's favour for £100. .An injunction was granted by the Court to prevent the society interfering with Thomas in the further exercise of his trade.
