STONE CUTTERS STRIKE.

The WorkmeB on the Power Block Have
Grievance, which Is settled.
On Tuesday the stone cutters employed
at the yard on Helena avenue in cutting
granite for the Power * Keefe block went
out on a strike. The men are members of
the National StOns Cutters union and
their grievance was against Shaffer &
Read, architects. who have the contract for
the building. This firm had an advertise
ment inserted in the Minneapolis Journal
for fifty non-unlon stone cutters and stated
that s5 10 S6 per day would be paid for
good men.
AT the quarry from which the stone is
being taken, about three and One-half
miles southeast of this city, ShafIer & Read
have a crowd Of "scab'' men at work, IL is
SAID. and noticing the advertisement in the
Minneapolis paper the Helena stone cut
ters concluded they were TO be let out The
contractors sUb-let the work at the Helena
yard 10 the Helena Cooperative Gran
ite and Sandstone company, Of which
Henry Duignen is the president and his
brother, james Duignsn, Is also a member
This company took contract for two stO-
ries of the building and are strong union
men, who paid the scale Of S5 and received
a commission Of 80 cents for each stone
cutter employed.
Goa Tuesday the stone cutters quit work
sud sent a note 20 that effect 20 Shaffer &
Read. Y Yesterday a delegation OF the union
| called on i. Q. Power, and the result was
that the stone WORK was taken away from
the architects, and contract entered into
between eighteen of the union men and
1 Mr. Power. The latter was very liberal
| with the men and agreed 10 pay them So per
i day OF ten hours aud nine on saturday, and
i SIP for working on Sunday. he wants the
/ work rushed and II completed by Decem-
i Der l, will pay the men a large bonus. The
i work is now entirely Ia the hands Of the
| union and they will take hold Saturday,
| when the Duignan Bros. will have finished
the second story. The union men will
| clear out the ''scabs" al the quarry and
i put 10 their own men. The difference IN
i the scale offered by M Power Is made up
| owing TO the fact that the men will work
| ten hours per day, while heretofore they
| put IN but nine hours. The trouble Is now
over and the Minneapolis men who may
have been attracted Dy the advertisement
will be disappointed.

that you cannot vote unless you register.
