THE BRICKLAYERs' STRIKE.
Efforts TO StraiGhten the New Post
Office Building TangIe.

There has been no material change in
the condition of affairs relative to the
strike of the bricklayers and laborers at
the city postoffice. The money due the
men for the last weeks work has not yet
been paid and the men have no intention
of resuming work until they have receiy-
ed their wages in full.
There are twenty-five bricklayers and
forty laborers who have been working
for Hurdle & Mccartney, awaiting their
money. and twelve workmen for the
Camp Company, who are on a sympa-
thetic strike. Unless the men are paid
today a general strike of the union men
now working on the building will be Or
dered. This move by the Labor Union
will throw out over two hundred plaster
era. steam filters and other workmen.
The men do not blame Hurdle & Nc
Cartney for the condition of affairs, as
most of them have worked for this firm
for number of years. They are annoy
ed, however at the continual promise of
their money and the procrastination of
the firm in paying them, as this Is the
particular time of the year when they
should be at work to earn money with
which to live through the winter. They
are left in doubt by the daily promise of
being paid, whether to wait for their
wages or seek other positions.
AT conference held the early part of
the week between the United States FL
deity and Guaranty Company and Hur-
die & Mccartney 1t was agreed by the
former concern. the bondsmen for the sub
contractors, to pay the men yesterday at
noon in event the money was not forth
coming from the Camp Company, the firm
| in charge of the work. A meeting was
| held in the office of the Guaranty Com
| pany after this agreement, ana il was de-
| cided not to pay the men at the appoint
! ed time, but TO leave the matter in the
| hands of the central office, in Baltimore.
| A general conference will be held in that
! city tomorrow by the United States FL
! deity and Guaranty Company Hurdle &
! Mccartney and the representatives of the
| II. B. Camp Company to determine who
! shall pay the men. 1t Is said that if the
Camp Company has TO assume the debt
the contract awarded by them to Hurdle
& Mccartney will be annulled If, how.
ever. tho Guaranty Company pays the
overdue wages, the work will be continued
1t is stated by members of the different
| companies that the men will be paid by
Someone on Friday. and work will prob
ably be resumed by the first of next week
