NO PEACE IN STONE CUTTING.
conference Of Union Delegates and EN-.
plOyers Fails 20 Brine Resuits.


An unsuccessful attempt was made
yesterday to settle the strike of the stone
cutters. which is retarding the end OF the
building lockout. At a conference be-
tween the union delegates and COM
mittee OF the Employing Stone Cutters at
East Forty-second street a proposal was
made by the employers that the strikers
return to work under the conditions ex-
listing before the strike. These were that
the Stone Cutters Union should have the
eight hour work day and the old wages,
but the machine stone workers should be
REGARDED as unskilled laborers.
The union delegates insisted that their
union must have jurisdiction over the ma
chine stone workers and that the latter
should work under the same conditions as
the stone cutters. To this the employers
will be held this week at which the stand
taken by It's committee will be submitted
Tor Endorsement.
In the meantime some OF the large en-
ployers are getting stone cutters from
other cities. Some have come from Scot
land in the last ten days and are being
put to work by the contractors.
The new carpenters union formed under
the employers arbitration agreement
notified the Master Carpenters Association
yesterday that on Nov. 1t will raise its
iniation fee from 81 to IS. II was reported
1900 carpenters in the new union are being
employed and that 400 moro are working
who will be enrolled as members. When
the new union enrolls 1000 more members
It will apply for charter to the United
Brotherhood Of Carpenters.
j. w. Lantry Of the Tile, Crate and Man
tel Association said last night: we are
getting more tile layers every day and

MORE WAGES FOR MINERS.
Disintesrstion OF the Union Also Lessons
Labor Troubles.

MAHANoy CITY, Pa, Oct. lo.-C P. Nelis
of Washington, the commissioner APP
pointed to compute the rate Of wages for
the anthracite miners, notified the coal
operators to-day that, based upon the
average price Of coal Of domestic sizes
at tidewater last month. the rate of wages
for the miners this month will be FIVE per
cent. above the $3.50 basis, or an increase
OF two per cent. over last month.
The condition Of the coal trade is now
such that it is predicted that the rate Of
wages will be advanced until maximum
of 10 per cent will be reached before the
winter is at an end. The fact that the miners
union is slowly disintegrating has gone a
long way toward making 1t possible for
the collieries to work full time, as few, II
anv. strikes or disensioas are now re-
ported whereas during the past two years.
and up to about six months ago, strikes
were OF almost daily occurrence. As
result, the miners are all making good
wages.
