ssoo.lS TO CENTRAL TRADES

ssoo.1S TO CENTRAL. TRADES.
The meeting OF the Central Trades and
Labor union last evening was very inter-
esting. despite the fact that a number
of the members were interested in the
caucuses at the polls.
The first thing done was the reading OF
the communications. among the principal
of which was one from the Building
Trades council. asking that the committee
from the body meet that from the council
yand confer as TO the returning the moneys
rcollected in the interest OF the building
aofa Labor temple.
" The cause OF this action was that stock
had not sold as rapidly as was expected
and the plans had been dropped for the
spresent This will necessitate the return
Ing to those organizations the moneys
that had been paid into the hands OF the
Treasurer. The two bodies. the central
trades and the building trades. had each
deposited S26 In the interest OF the work.
II is understood. and also IL has been
rumored that the plumbers had subscribed
The same amount.
The treasurer OF the concern was not
present so the exact amount paid In could
not be learned. He win be requested to
return II ALL however. and the committee
discharged, II IL thought. In order that
the action be taken. however, II will be
necessary for all the committee to be on
hand.
The special committee from the body
that had been appointed to visit local 100
OF the engineers, I'm behalf of the mu-
sicians, reported that the commission
had been informed and the situation ex-
piained with promise that n communica-
tion would be sent 10 the meeting. This
did not arrive. however, owing 20 the fact
that the secretary was not at the meeting
when the committee visited. and. knew
nothing OF what was asked The commit
tee was composed of Messrs Agnew and
Denly
The report OF the Labor day committee
was received and proved TO be very inter-
esting II developed that when all the
bills had been paid there was still $So6 10
to be turned over to the central body as
its portion OF the receipts for Labor day.
This report was received with a burst OF
& enthusiasm and the committee discharged
with a vote OF thanks
The credentials from the American
Federation of Labor were received with
. communication asking as 20 the NUM-
= ber Of delegates 20 be sent TO the con-
- vention. meeting In California. The mo-
tion was made after some discussion "a
table the credentials and the communica-
: tion indefinitely, the reason being that
the expenses for a delegate so far away
from home would be too great for the
good to be gained.
communtcation from the Chicago
e Federation Of Labor convention was
treated In the same manner.
The most interesting report OF the
meeting was that OF Delegate l.. A Grace
10 the state convention. II was most
complete document and showed that the
arcompiler took pleasure I'm tabulating the
,ryevents OF the session for the benefit OF
=, those who sent him as their representa-

and teh body was so well pleased with
his account that they voted 10 record
the report In the minutes OF the meeting
a The delegate was also allowed his ex-
e penses. amounting TO s25. for the trip.
The cigar makers union made an ap-
peal 10 the central body for the patron
age Of those union cigars that were made
in this city In preference N others. This
was found TO be a very good suggestion
and II was voted that he delegates carry
the suggestion with the recommeDdat tions
Of the meeting back to their respective
& locals.
II was made n motion that the sa-
loon Of Daniel McQuade be removed from
the unfair list This was done
The places Of Bernard Withers and
Julius Reiwold were placed on the un-
fair list upon the recommendation OF
the hartenders' union.
Under the head OF trade reports the
coal teamsters stated that there were
now q small dealers IN the city today
than was the case last year This was
something In favor of the unions since
the larger dealers uniformly employed
union men and nothing else while he
small dealers were the union s ~,ltterest
enemies.
The committee on the bartender
grievance was appointed. consIs,,ng q,
crnce and Archambeault

Jock into the matter OF the Frankil. pres
In behalf of the teamstcrs and inquir
why non-union teamsters were bein,
