ference today the strike will probably
spread until about 10000 men are In

today, without having reached any
agreement and the employers. considering
IL improbable that any settlement will be
arrived at today's conference, are pre-

will follow.
Members OF other unions. who will be
out OF work because they cannot proceed
with building without tho bricklayers.
are said to be indignant that the brick
layers should tie up the whole building
industry.
Twenty ave hundred hthographers have
struck rather than be locked out. They
quit work at the direction OF their dis
trfct officers, when they found that they
must sign the arbitration agreement or
be discharged
The employers say that 55 men have
already signed the agreement, and are
ready 20 go 10 work. but the officers of
the union declare positively that only is

NOTES FROM STAGElAND.

Annie Abbott. the famous little Georgia
magnet Is drawing such tremendous
crowds TO Keiths Boston theatre this
week that the beautiful theatre cannot
accommodate all who seek admittance.
There Ia no question but that this de-
mure little maiden who weighs but ll0
pounds, yet who performs the most mar
velous and unexplainable feats, is the
big sensation OF the vaudeville season.
She is emphaticaily psychic wonder.
During the past week all OF Boston's
leading scientists and psychological stu
dents have been to see Miss Abbotts ex-
hibition OF her amazing powers, and all
confess that they are baffled by them.
Here, as in all civilized countries OF the
globe her success has been most en-
phatic. and her engagement at tho Bos-
ton Reith theatre wdll be prolonged for
the next week. after which she will come
to Providence TO demonstrate her powers
before local Keith patrons. Miss Abb
bott is very young. but has appeared be-
fore more crowned heads than any other
living performer. She was an especial
pet OF the late Queen Victoria, and among
her nrost valued possessions is a photo
