GENERAL STRIKE ORDERED.
But Majority Of Union Men Are in 0psn Be
volt Against 1t.
(By the Associated Press. }


Tampa, Fla, Nov. 22.--On account of
the difference between the two cigar
makers unions here which led to Sc
rious riot last week, and the failure to
bring about an agreement by the Inter
national union refusing to comply with
all of the articles, submitted by the arbi-
tration committee, the trades assembly
today. formally ordered a general strike
of all organized labor in the city to be-
gin Monday.
The general strike would seriously par
alyze business here if carried into eff
feet. There has been an open revolt upon
part of the majority of the union men
today and they declare that they will
not go out Monday. Few cities have labor
so we'll organized as in Tampa. The
strike would take out carpenters, brick
masons, machinists. painters, plumbers,
timers, wood workers, engineers, electric
workers, box makers, trimmers and
everything outside the cigar industry.
Union men generally declare that if the
assembly does not rescind the order for
strike before Monday they will abandon
their unions and appeal to national off,
GERS. They would at the time be treated
as scabs by those striking and this would
create trouble. 1t is admitted now by
the International cigar makers that fully
500 of their members have already join
ed the Resistencia Union Their officers
say the prospects are the union will be
wiped out before the strike occurs All
officers of the union fought strongly to
have the articles of agreement accepted
IS presented by the Resistencia, but they
were swept away by the restless element
who demanded that their wishes be agreed
to by the Resstencia people.
