THE OUTCOME DOUBTFUL.
SOME EXPECT FAILURES.
Small Contractors Likely to Feel
Effects of Long Tte-up.

Among the $500 firms, large and small, in
the Building Trades Employers Association,
number Of the smaller ones. 1t is believed, will
keenly feel the after effects Of the building
shutdown The failure of such large firm as
Norcross Brothers, though it had no labor trou-
bles in this city. caused some speculation yes
terday as 10 the ultimate result OF the present
state of the building trade in Manhattan and
The Bronx on these small firms. AS this shut
down is unique and there are no precedents
to judge by at least in this city. in the shape
of movement on such a large scale. no one
interested in the situation who was seen yes
terday would make positive predictions as 10
the outcome.
visiting representative of out Of town
labor bureau, who is collecting labor data of
various kinds at the headquarters OF the Civic
Federation said that the end Of the recent lock-
out in the building trades in Chicago was fol-
lowed by the failure of number of the smaller
contractors.
"a finance committee had been appointed by
the contractors 20 tide over affairs for their
weaker brethren" he said, but after the lock-
out was over a good many Of the smaller con-
tractors failed all the same. The effect of the
shutdown here will not fbe felt in all it's force
by the small contractors until after it Is over
for some time. Then the matured bills VIII
have to be met. New-York is rich city, but
some of the small contractors, who start opera
tions largely on credit, will. no doubt, be hard
hit"
In the early days of the shutdown there was
some talk of the weaker contractors being
helped along. A representative Of the board of
governors of the employers association. who
was seen by a Tribune reporter, said:
1 feel certain that everything will come out all
be embarrassment among the smaller contractors.
Every is holding out, and We are all A unit on
the question of standing together.
The representative of firm of builders sup
plies and the Employers Association said that
the brunt would fall on the supply and build
ing material firms. Credit. he believed. would
be extended.
Il have doubt that the smaller firms, or at
least some Of them will be in poor shape" he
continued, and this will not develop until some
time after the trouble is over. The material
dealers will give extended credit, l believe. II
the contractors say they cannot pay on tmes
what can the creditors do but renew the time
limit? I believe the banks will be liberal too,
in renewing notes. Some of the speculative
builders and independent contractors are likely
to feel the effect of the trouble. The large con-
tractors will not be incOnvenienced, and Will not
feel it's effect to the same extent or in the same
proportion the small men. Exactly what will
happen. however. no one can foreten, as such a
condition of affairs the present in the build
ing trade never existed before.
