THE COKE STRIKE MAY YET CAUSE TROUBLE
scottdale Penn, May 23.-The coke strike may yet
cause considerable trouble. All during the contest the
operators said that when the strike over they
would punish the leaders, and they seem now to be
carrying out their threat Yesterday the men kept
swarming to the Offices for work, but In every case
where leader or active committeeman applied, he
was refused and told there no job for him. The
indications to-day that fully 900 Of leaders
have been placed the blacklist With such a great
number OF delegates ide the strike spirit may be re-
vived again in a few weeks.

THE BOYCOTT STILL UNSETTLED.
WILL THE WALKING DELEGATES MAKE A SUR
RENDERf

The lumber dealers say that they have made up
their minds that the only way that the labor troubles
in the lumber trade be settled is by the Board OF
Walking Delegates making unconditional surrender
A special meeting OF the Lumber Trade Association
was held at No 1s Broadway yesterday, TO decide what
Should be done in regard to the agreement which
AonZo T. Decker, chairman OF their executive com
mittee, had signed with the Board Of Walking Dele
gates. The agreement repudiated and resoiu-
ton was passed TO the effect that no negotiations
shoud be entered into with the walking delegates
looking to settlement until the boycott on the lum-
Der yard Of Charles L. Buch & Co. Is declared off,
At the Board Of Delegates yesterday 1t was SAID
that the agreement with Mr.. Decker had been signed
in good faith, and that the strikers were all to have
returned to work in the morning, as the Board had
received Official notice that the agreement had been
repudiated.
The effect Of the lumber embargo on building opera
tons is beginning TO be felt, and large number Of
workmen already idle. In consequence Of the re-
fusal OF the majority Of the members of the assocla-
ton to ratify the agreement drawn up by Mr. Decker
number OF dealers have expressed much dissatisiae-
ton, and 1t IS pr0phesied that before the end OF
week there will be split in the ranks of the associa
ton, and that there will then be no scarcity OF all
kinds OF lumber.
