GREAT STRIKE IN NEW YORK.
Ssvsntssn BuiidsrS Unions Ordered
Out and Long Fight Is Likely.

New York, Aug. 1.-The BUILDING
Trades Alliance. made up Of II unions.
declared strike today against the
George A. Fuller Construction Conn
pany. Philip WeInsheimer. president
of the Building Trades Alliance, who
declared strike on the subway last
week. is responsible for the strike to-
day. The reason given for calling out
the men was because Of the claim that
the Fuller company had been using
stone from non-union quarries and
trimming yards. In some quarters, it
Is said. the actual reason for the strike
was the fear that the Building Trades
Employers Association would declare
a lockout.
At meeting held today the board
Of governors of the Employers Asso-
citation formulated letter which was
sent to each Of the unions in the
Building Trades Alliance. While ad-
mitting that the action taken was Of
decided Importance, the employers alb
solutely refused to reveal the contents
of the letter. Charles l. Reideitz. pres
ident of the association. said the stand
taken was firm. but he would not ad-
init anything like an ultimatum had
been sent.
The strike and today's move Of the
employers grew out Of series Of dis
putes. and promise to involve the em-
ployers and the union men in the
building trades in another gigantic
struggle. The feeling is extremely Bit
ter between the two sides and both
have been preparing for the fight that
appears to be beginning.
