MoI.DERs REFUSED TO WORK.
For some time since the opening Of the
new steel shop in the south part OF the
city the members OF the Molders' union
have been attempting TO induce the man
agement TO confirm 10 the union scale OF
wages
Trustee j. II. o'Neil was unsuccessful
In the matter and when the body met
the local voted TO close the place 10 union
mon. The company thought that the place
could be run without the union and so
proceeded. The work Of the non-union
men was not Of satisfactory order and
some union men were obtained from out
of-town AS soon as the local discovered
that union men were working there q
delegation visited them and explained the
situation with the result that the men
quit work last Monday.
SINCE then the work In the place has
been handicapped and the union has
| placed plckets around the shop TO warn
any union man OF the conditions
II IL thought that very sooli satisfactory
arrnnEement will be made and union men
employed
