CHICAGO, May l.-During the early weeks
oi spring the anticlpatlonS Tor building
this season were rose-colored to degree
tor!erins on enthusiasm. May-day, how
ever, has come around without any very
notable boom in that line OF work, and
there is every reason now TO predict that as
long as brick is held by the manufacturers
1T $l3 thousand, and lumber keeps ad-
rancn. in ratio with the increased de-
mand ior building mechanics, those con-
iemp!a;ing the erection OF buildings will re-
train from operations for at least the pres
ent season. Alta meeting OF the lumber
dealers and manufacturers few days
ago the price-Iist was revised and .
few figures added. The price OF 4 partition,
D. and NJ, two sides, four beads, was ad-
ysnced from SIS to ST.. The brick manu-
taourers have also been in consultation
during the pas, week, and have determ.
lnel, Il not to raise rates, at least to hold
10 Old prices. Then, too, Il number OF me-
chanics, in various lines OF trade, desirous
Of iakin. time by the iorelock, have re-
Gently made known their determination to
s;rke for increase oil wages, provided their
demands are not complied with. Hence
The boom anticipated some weeks ago in
building operations in Chicago has not yet
been realized, nor is it apt 10 be during the
Present summer. The architects. however,
eNtinue busy, with large stock OF com.
N.:ed work on hand. and the books at the
..thee oi 'heei'y building department show
-ot the past week more tnau an average list
u notable permits.
