SHORT MEETING.
There was not very long session OF the
Building Trades council last evening.
though almost every craft AFFILIATED had
its representatives on hand.
There were a number OF matters that
came before the meeting. but most Of
them pertained TO the working Of the
craft and could not be divulged.
The most important matter OF a public
nature was the report OF the, committee
on the matter Of tho business agent for
the union. This matter has been before
the body for several weeks and is being
strongly agitated by some OF the locals
When the focmer reports were made
there were parts OF IL that were not
pleasing 10 the members OF the Council
nor TO the locals represented, 80 the corn~
mittee was sent back again TO a con-
ference with instructions 10 report some
further recommendations and 10 amend
others.
This was done and the matter pre-
sented in full last evening. The report
was accepted. but definite action wes
postponed TIL some subsequent meeting.
Another matter OF general interest was
the report OF the plastererr, concerning
the strike. and the progress made since
its inception. It was learned that at the
present time almost all OF the men are
at work at union prices and union con-
ditions prevail.
The strike was inaugurated on the NTH
OF MAY and at first there was considera-
BILE confusion The strikers were ab,e 10

manner with the result that before very
long n number Of the men were placed at
work az tho union scale and since that
time the men have been going back 10
work regularly tll at the present time
is but little work not done by the union
and bat few OF the men are not employed
under the scale. A few OF the bosses still
refused 90 sign the agreement but not 90
much attention IL being paid 10 them.
All the other matters that came before
the body were of a nature not To be
made known AZ the present time. When
all had been settled the session came 20
close
There was a short meeting OF the Build
