110. In any case in which it appears from the debtor's statement of affairs that there are numerous claims for wages by workmen or others employed by the debtor, it shall be sufficient if one proof for all such claims is made either by the debtor or by his foreman or some other person on behalf of all such creditors. Such proof shall have annexed thereto, as forming part thereof, a schedule setting forth the names of the workmen or others and the amounts severally due to them.
