STILL FARTHER APART.
Differences Between Local Labor Or
ganizations No Nearer Settlement.

The local trouble between Local Assem-
bly, l19s. K. Of L., and the branch of the
brotherhood of Painters, has assumed
greater proportions, in that the trouble has
been extended to Pittsburg, where a num-
Der of X. of l.. men We're sent to take the
places Of the members of the brotherhood
who struck for increased wages. This ac-
ton was taken in the way Of retaliation for
the men affiliated with the brotherhood
who were brought to this city to take the
places OF painters who. as they said would
not accede to the demands of the Master
Painters Association.
About fifty men connected with the local
assembly left this city for Pittsburg Tues
day night, number. departed last night
and still more are scheduled to leave to-
night. All are guaranteed positions as long
as they desire to remain there. A member
of the organization said this morning that
a letter just received contained assurances
that as many more as could arrange to
go would find employment awaiting them
In the smokey city.
The knights Of Laber men claim that the
brotherhood controls work in that city only
through outside firms, and that they have
reliable information to the effect that no
firms have acceded to the demands of the
strikers. They express the belief that they
can break the power Of the brotherhood in
Pttsburg
The fact that the Knights Of Labor men
have gone to Pittsburg to gain employment,
said one of the officials of the brotherhood
this morning to a Star reporter TODAY au-
gurs well for the organizations stand in
this city. He said that when they arrived
In Plttsburg they would not be able to ac-
compllsh their purpose as the brotherhood
has the backing Of every one Of the build
ing trades there. He said he had received
reassuring news from the scene of the trou-
Die and was looking forward to still more
encouraging tidings this afternoon
Mr.. Murray, secretary of the Brotherhood
OF Painters. said: II understand that half
the shops have given in to the contention
for $3O and eight hours day, and that
these men the knights Of Labor organic
ton here are sending there are all to work
on one big job for shop that is still hold
ing out.
I'VE are confident OF winning, for there
are 1,4OO federation painters in Pittsbure
and the few that the local assembly are
sending can do them no harm. The men in
Pittsburg are striking for their rights, and
Is. 90 day and eight hours are recognized
as their rights In nearly every other city
in the United States"
