STRIKE AT AN END.
Lafayette Contractors Yield to the
Demands of Their Men.

Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, July 1.-THE lock-
out of building trades workmen which
has been in progress for ten days, came
to an end at 10 o'clock this morning when
an agreement was signed by representa-
tives OF the Building Trades Council and
the Builders Exchange, the latter being
the contractors organization. The dispute
was caused by the refusal of the contrac-
tors to employ only union labor and to
treat with the Building Trades Council,
which is a local organization composed of
all labor unions whose membership is COM
posed of building trades workmen. When
the contractors made known their inten-
ton to refuse TO recognize the council 500
carpenters, painters. plasterers, hod ear
riers and electricians quit work, and work
still since. Thousands of dollars in wages
fered losses of many hundreds of dollars
by failing TO complete work.
The agreement as signed is considered
by the workmen as a victory for their
cause. 1t recognizes the council, promises
the employment OF only union workmen
and allows the council the right TO enter
any building in which a nonunion man is
al work for the purpose of inducing him
10 join the union. The most important
clause is one which provides for the arbi-
tratiOn Of any future controversy Each
side is to appoint two delegates. the four
10 select fifth man and the five to act
as a board OF arbitration. Tomorrow
morning all the locked out men will return
work.
