now but two in which employers as we'll es
employees occupy uncompromising atii-
tude-the furniture and foundry interests
Negotiations between the contending psz~

resumption of work in the shop tailoring
trade and also the complete collapse of tbs
lumber showers strike. 1t is fact tbas
the furniture workers have at least
partially succeeded in carrying their point
for eight hours and increased pay, despite
the firm declarations of the manufacturers
The employees of the lumber yards and plan
ing-milIs went to work, or are going to on
Monday, at the old conditions for hours and
wages, but the places of several thousand of
the old hands have been filed by outsiders
The molders alone present a solid phalanx
in support of their demand for an eight
hour working day and eight hours pay.
There are about 1000 molders idle, and per-
haps 5000 furniture workers.
