THE EIGHT-HOUR AGITATION.
Efforts OF the Association Of Master Car

Efforts OF tho Association Of Master Car
penters to Defeat the Mon.
CHICAGO, May 10.-The cid Master Car
penters' association, which refused to take
part in the arbitration proceedings with
the striking carpenters, is making a strong
fight to secure men. It is forming union
of non-union men in opposition to the
regular union, and has agents at various
points in this country and Canada en-
deavorinR to get men. The Carpenters'
council has secured the presence here of a
government agent to look out for Cana
dian carpenters imported under con-
tract and have pickets out Watching
all contracts in the hands of the old
association. The new bosses association
is receiving daily accessions to its ranks
and nearly all union carpenters are at work
Tho old Masters association is making q
strong fight on the new bosses, having made
arrangements with dealers in lumber anl
other supplies, by which the new bosses
cannot get material except for cash, while
the old masters get thirty to sixty days
time. This will cripple many of the smal
bosses seriously. The old association has
petition with the new bosses at prices which
will allow little or no profit.
Union carpenters will rely chiefly upon
their ability to call out the other
building trades from jobs where non-union
men are employed and upon keeping car
psnters from accepting service under the
old bosses. In view of all these things il
would seem that the eight hour fight has
only just begun in this city.
