CHICAGO, Jan. Sit has developed that the
principal object of the visit of T. p. Barry, of

is to settle dispute between the painters and
hardwood inishers. The hard wood finishing
business has only recently developed in this
country as distinct trade. It has been either
connected with the painting trade or the cabinet
making industry, but principally tie former
More recently, however, the finishing Of hard
wood for the interior Of dwellings, cars and
certain lines of furniture. has grown
into an immense business. There are
1000 hardwood inishers in Chicago
alone, aside from probably fifteen per
cent. of the painters, who work more or less at
the same trade. The painters realize that just
in proportion the hardwood finishing bust
ness increases that Of the painters must decrease
and they have determined and decreed that the
hardwood finishing business is part of their
trade and not separate one Lately the
painters in of the largest establishments
here demanded the discharge of the fnishers.
The demand was refused and strike followed.
1t is understood that the hardwood -fnishers
will win the fight, and that painters who are
Knights, will be compelled to fraternize with
them in more friendly spirit.
