CHICAGO CARPENTERS OUT.

Eight Thousand Chicago Carpenters Join
In the Strike for the Enforcement of
Their Demands.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-The second great
strike of the carpenters in this year
went into effect this morning. OF the
5000 members Of the craft in the city,
less than 1000 resumed work to-day
and by tonight it is expected that most
of those will have joined the strikers.
The strike is much more general
than had been anticipated by
either of the employing as
sociations, and far more unanimous
than the promoters Of it had hoped for.
The men demand the eight-hour day,
371a cents an hour and arbitration of all
disputes. The strike differs from the
one inaugurated last May in that any
contractor that comedies the terms de-
manded will be furnished men by the
Carpenters Council. Last spring the
carpenters refused to treat with the
contractors except as an association.
