1 BUILDING TRADES STRIKE.
Declared " New York Men Against
 Fuller Company.


 New York, Aug. 1-The Building Trades Alliance, made up of seventeen unions, declared a strike to-day against the George A. Fuller Construction conn |pany, and work was tied up on these buildings:
 The Times building, Forty-second street and Broadway; Sturtevant build ling, Twenty-ninth street and Broad- way; Trinity building, next to Trinity church: New York Hippo dronae, Forty third street and Broadway, and Taber building, Wall and Pearl streets
 The reason given for calling out the men was because of a claim that the Fuller company has been using stone from non union quarries and trimming yards. It is thought that the actual treason was because of the fear of lockout on the part of the Building Trades Employers association At 3 meeting of this association to-day the board of governors formulated letter which was sent to each of the building trades alliance While it was admitted that the action taken was of very decided importance, the employers ab- solutely refused to reveal the contents of the letter.

Transfer Fraud Has Become so Serious
 that Steps Must be Taken to Prevent
 It-As an Incentive to the Men to
 Obey the Rules, Two Funds of $500

 Among Those Having the Best
 Records.
 At the meeting of the employees of the Consolidated Railway company, called at 2:sO o'clock this morning by General Manager Punderford about 300 men were present. When he ascended the platform MT. Punderford was applaud ed loudly and was several times inter- Irupted by applause during his speech. The meeting closed at s:sO. the men re- turning to their homes in special cars. Mir. Punderford's Statement.
 MT. Punderford made the following statement:
 Motormen and Conductors of The Con-
 solidated Railway Company: I desire to thank such of you as have come here tonight in order to give me an opportunity of talking with as many of the employees as possible. I do not come here iii a fault-finding spirit, and do not criticize you as a whole, though, as there is bound to be 1 in as large q number of men, there are lsome individual cases which deserve Icensure and which operate to the injury of the good name of you men as a body. My object is to explain, if possible, the necessity for certain of the rules and the importance to the company of 1 the observation of the same. One of the first items I desire to take up is the question of accident reports Tn many instances. had reports been promptly filled out with as many witnesses names as possible, large amounts of money could have been saved to the lcompany, and while we are on the sub- ltention to the fact that conductor should execrise great care on the,open cars in seeing that passengers are fully ton or on the cars before starting the lear. Many overhead wires have been pulled down owing to the failure of the lconductor to have his hand on the trol- ley when rounding curves or going over lspecial work.
 Some conductors are lax in setting back the register promptly and in ring ling up fares in punches instead of after leach collection. A few employees, both motormen and conductors, have become lax in conversing with friends riding on the cars instead of attending to bus mess. Some motorinen are running into special work, curves and switches at too high q rate of speed. thus often times derailing the car and blocking the system, and many Jnotornen are looking back rather than keeping their eyes forward, instead of leaving the conductor to run the car from the rear lend
 Regarding the rules for enforcement Of the no1-stopover privilege on trans fers, would say that the transfer fraud has become so serious that steps must be taken to prevent it.
 ! Conductors must be careful to punch
