INSPECTED THE COURT
Champions Of Auditorium Movement Look
=: Over the Ground.

Champions OF Auditorium Movement Look
: Over the Ground.
Before waiting upon the Legislature, the
champions Of the courthouse auditorium
movement inspected the great court which
they believe can be utilized osuch ad-
vantage. F. B. Long, the architect, who
accompanied the delegation to- st. Paul,
explained just what was contemplated
and pointed out to the Investigators what
changes would be necessary in the base
ment and first floors; Of the big building.
In answer to the argument made recently
by L. S. Gillette that the construction Of
the auditorium would call for the sacrifice
Of $50, 900 worth Of improvements already
installed, Mr.. Long said that the utiliza-
tion of such Offices as would have to be
bea waste Of space, even though they
had been intended for other uses.
The members of the party, with the
exception of Mayor J. c.. Haynes, seemed
much impressed with the feasibility of
the plan.
II see nothing impracticable about it,"
said John w. Thomas, land I must say
that it appeals to me as a worthy under
taking. don't see what reasonable OBJ
lection can be raised to the utilization Of
this vast space for such an admirable
purpose as has been proposed. We need
such a hall and here is an opportunity
to provide the city with such meeting
place at fraction of the cost which a
building especially constructed for that
purpose would necessitate." ss- s.
Mayor Haines declined to accompany
the delegation to st. Paul., saying that
he was opposed to the plan, and that he
could not bring himself to say q word in
it's behalf. ,@~@.-.- .f-<-:;

Millwrights at Standard Mill Go Out
Because of Wage Dis
- - agreement.
American Linseed Oil Co.'s Men OBJ
ject to Labor Saving Machi-
!. nery-0ther Strikes. r.

i Four strikes are in progress in Mime
apolis and several hundred men are idle.
The strikes involve the employees of the
American Linseed company; the mill
| WrightS at the Standard flour mill, the
cigarmakers Of several shops and several
wagon and carriage makers. All Of the
strikes were started this week save that
of the cigarmakers. which has been in
progress for, two weeks.
| The millwrights went out Monday eve
ming because: they could not agree with
their employers upon wages to be paid
in reconstructing the Standard mill. The
union scale, in effect here for severa
months. is 40 cents an hour for special
work, while regular work in the mills Is
paid for at the rate Of So a day of ten
hours. The men employed at regular
work draw their pay for every day in the
year, whether the mills are operated OF
not. When the work of reconstruction
began, the managers paid the men or
| basis of the regular work. Efforts at ar
adjustment failed and the strike was or
dered.
| The strike of the wagon and carriage
makers seems to be for the recognition
of the union. The new scale presented
recently to the employers proposed {.
change Of only rs cent day in the black
smith department, and the refusal of the
employers to sign the scale was taken
to mean that they would not recognize the
union. One hundred men are idle.
The introduction Of labor saving ma
chinery by the American Linseed Oil COM
pany was the cause Of the strike at its
mill. The men objected and sixty Of them
were formally discharged by the manager.
The men say they are out on a strike.
but the manager Of the company says they
have been discharged.
The cigarmakers in certain shops went
out on strike about two weeks ago be-

at low wages. A settlement does not seem

ICE MEN NOT INSISTENT
They Ask Higher Pay, but an Ami.
cable Adjustment Is
=.
rig Probable. =.

r Coolness exists between the st. Paul
ice men and their help. A strike Is likely
to follow the refusal of the employers to
grant an advance in wages. The situa-
ton is, entirely different in Minneapolis
where, altho an advance over the wages
of last year has been requested, amicable
adjustment is in sight. 1.-The st. Paul
eamsters and helpers meet tonight to
appoint a committee to confer with the
dealers Friday night alta meeting called
for that purpose. The men demand that
teamsters be paid $50 a month for the six
months season and helpers SIS. The
dealers have offered S65 and $7O.- :. ,
s. Dealers in Minneapolis cannot grant the
request of their men for further advance
as conditions are the same as last year
when they advanced wages as high as they
felt able. The employees seem generally
satisfied and they have, asked more pay.
1t is expected that the settlement will be
friendly
:, The Minneapolis companies last year
increased the wages of drivers from $50
to s75i month for the six months begin
ming May L.. All other employees were put
sup from s1.75 a day to $50 a month The
winter wages were advanced from $3.50 to
$1.15 a day. This year. the increase asked
is fiat, one for all employees except barn
men. .,
The ice schedule to local consumers
will be the same this year as last without
