BRUNSWICK LONGSHOREMEN
ARE OUT ON A STRIKE
misunderstanding Relative to an Increase in
Wages Was the Cause

Brunswick, Ca, Sept. 5.-Between 400
and 600 longshoremen went out on a
strike here to-day. A strike has been
IN for some time. but yesterday tile
lumber merchants held a meeting and
decided to grant the demanded increase
of 21b cents per hour. To-day the long
shoremen went to work as usual, but,
at p O'Clock all went out, and as a re-
suit, shipping generally is tied up.
The action of the labor union is not
understood by the lumbermen. The
strike has been on for two weeks, but
there has not bseu over two or three
hundred out. Scabs We're imported TO
the city and have been working, and
a majority of the lumber dealers have
had full gangs at work all during the
week, but there was much dissatisfac-
ton, and the dealers decided yester-
day to grant the increase.
The men all went to work this morn
ing, and it was thought that the strike
was over. and the merchants were
much surprised when they walked ont
again, after the increase had been
granted.
The longshoremen held a meeting
this afternoon, at which there We're
some 700 present. 1t is claimed by the
union that the strike to-day was called

SAYS LITTLE BUILDING
WILL BE DONE IN 1904.
Labor Uncertainties Said to De Re-

Labor Uncertainties Said to De Re-
spOnsibIe for This.
Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 5.-The Post
tomorrow will say:
According to well matured plans. not
only of the great railroad corporations
of the country, but of the larger in
vestors of capital in building opera
lions, there is likely to be a general
cessation of building operations dur
ing 1904, which will make that year
memorable to the trades interested.
The statement of one of the largest
contracting concerns in the country
connected with railroad construction
work is the basis for the assertion
that at least $3.50, 900, 600 worth of build
ing operations proposed for 1904 have
actually been called off and plans have
been recalled for architects and en-
gineers.
1t is also said by the same author
lty that so far as known there will be
nothing in the shape of new work
Undertaken the coming year and
when the present contracts are COM
pleted a period of waiting will ensue.
1t will be waiting for the general
labor situation to settle down, and
the end of the fractional wars and
strikes that have almost destroyed
confidence in building.
