The Carpenters and Joiners Score a De-
cisive Victory.
ST. Louis, May 1.-The carpenters and
joiners have once more scored a victory
against their employers. Two years ago
they fought for 80 cents an hour and an
eight-hour day and won. Today they
asked 40 cents an hour and got it.
All the carpenters in the city were yes
terday notified to report at headquarters
at 10 a. m. today under penalty of heavy
fine for non-appearance, with a conse-
quence that the hall was crowded to over
flowing when the meeting was called to
order. They got down to work right
away, and the first thing done was the
reading of replies TO their demands from
the bosses. Out OF $50 bosses who received
the demands 272 have granted the adj
vance, ten have refused and the balance
have not been heard from. The men
were ordered TO report for duty to those
bosses who have conceded the demands
while the others have been instructed to
remain out uniil the advance is granted.
The architectural iron workers to the
number OF $50 men.have gone out for the
eight-hour day and an advance in wages
of from 81 cents to - cents an hour. ac-
cording to grade Of work.
The marble settlers, who are members OF
the association of marble cutters of the
United States, have struck for an advance
OF % cents a day. They notified the
bosses some time ago of their demands
and received verbal answers from some of
the bosses, agreeing to the raise,

Carpenters and Building Trades Greatly
Affected.

Carpenters and Building Trade. Greatly
Affected.
PITTsBURG, May IA general review of
the situation shows that carpenters, brick
layers and stonemasons, to the number Of
5000, are out on a strike, with many plan
ing mill hands also idle. The different
unions of the building trades are holding
meetings and making careful estimates
of the number of men out and
the number found "black sleeping"
They report the latter as being
very small. The number of men in
the building trades known to be out are:
Carpenters, LOO: stonemasons, 700;
bricklayers, 600 or 700. Several independ-
ent contractors have already granted the
eight hour demand and the men say it is
only question of short time when the
builders association will be forced to
terms. Perfect i'll eness is observed in all
the large contracts IN this city. 1t appear
ing that even the laborers have dropped
their implements for the time.
Specials from New Castle, Erie, Wash
ington. BraddOck and other western Penn
sylvania and near BY Ohio towns indicate
a general strike among the carpenters,
stonemasons and bricklayers.
This morning between 5000 and 5000
railroad miners of the Pittsburg district
went out on strike. Their old scale ex-
pired Yesterday and they went on pend
ing an adjustment of wages. their strike
having nothing to do with the eight-hour
question. The miners convention is now
in session. The proposition of the opera
tors committee to pay the Old wages has
been received, but no action taken as yet.
The miners conference committee and
operators committee will meet after the
convention and probably an agreement
will be reached and the men return to work.
Nearly the entire session this morning
was given up to debate on the wage scale,
and it was practically decided to adopt
two scales, one 10 rule in the coal trade,
the other to govern the lake trade.
II has been decided to agree to a
differential price OF 8 cents be-
tween the Ohio and Pittsburg districts
in favor of the former. Since that district
is also in convention it is MT known what
will be done there. 1t is probable that 50
cents per ton will be asked for local trade
and 50 cents for lake trade.
Tonight the eight-hour situation is I'M
changed except that the slate roofers of
the district joined the carpenters. Some
twentys small firms have already
conceded the eight hours and %
cents per hour to carpenters, but they do
not belong to the builders exchange.
President George s. Fulmer of the latter
organization saws the men cannot even
come back at nine hours, as the con-
tractors propose to make il a perfect
freeze.out and change certain obnoxious
rules OF the carpenters union.
