STRIKERS ARE STILL OUT
No Change in the Capitol Build
ing Situation.
OPERATIONS MAY CEASE
Unless Stonecutting Is Resumed, 1t Is
Believed Work on the Building VIII
Come to Halt-Soss May Pur-
chase a Machine.

Special Dispatch 10 the Standard.
Helena, Aug. 22.-There was no
change to-day in the strike situation
at the capitol. The stonecutters who
went out yesterday did not put in an
appearance. The stonelayers, brick
layers and others employed about the
building remained at work and so far
as known will not quit out of sympathy
Contractor Soss has secured other
men to operate the stone planers in the
place of those who quit work yesterday,
not because they sympathiZed with the
stonecutters. but because they 1idn't
care to have any trouble with the lat
ter. Contractor Soss says he is going
East to purchase a machine that will
perform the work of the stonecutters
in pointing or finishing the stones that
have been run through the planer II
he can procure such a machine, he says
he can complete the building without
the services of stonecutters. He says
that he is willing to give work to any
union stonecutter that may apply, but
so far as acceding to the demands of
those who struck and discharging
Foreman Hamilton, he will never agree
to do that.
Unless stonecutting can he resumed in
a few days, it is feared that work on
the building will have to stop outside
of the planning machines and work at
the stone quarry.

Ball League to be Made.
CHICAGO. oct 12-After making
several minor changes in the constItu-
ton of the new American Base Ball
League, composed of all the clubs of the
late Western League, the League rep
resentatlves in session here adjourned
to-day until March Il. At the next
meeting the new directors will take up
the work Of arranging the schedule:
President 3. B. johnson announced
that it has been almost definitely de-
cided that next seasons games Will
open April "a, 25 and 20. This point was
warmly discussed, the directors OF the
southern teams making a strong fight
to open a week earlier. The number OF
players which each club Is permitted to
claim was reduced to ten with the ad-
ditlonal provision that the list OF play
ers OF each team be revised monthly by
the board. The question Of revising the
cut and forming the clubs in Chicago
and Cleveland was not considered, and
according to President johnson 1t is
probable the circuit will remain the
same as last year All the directors
present were satisfied that an improve
mcnt could be made by arranging a 1--WE
months schedule for next year and this
resolution was adopted almost without
O dissenting vote.
