BRIcKLArERs UNION EXPELLED
And All In This city Have Dened Their
National BOdy-Gct Higher Pay for It,

1t came out yesterday that the Brio k
layers and Masons' International Union
at its contention in San Francisco expelled
Bricklayers' Union 80 of this city In the
dispute over the lreproofing. The con-
vention also reaf'rmed the Trenton de-
cison Of two years ago by which any CON
tractor paying unio on wages and observing
union conditions could install 1Teproof
brick.
In the meantime the unions In this city
have signed an agreement with the Mason
Builders Association containing the usual
provision that the installation of fireproof
brick cannot be sublet, but must be done
by members OF that association. As q
quid pro quo the bricklayers are TO have
their wages advanced from IS TO 10 cents
an hour, beginning with March l.
TO observe the tIa1e agreement will
mean expulsion from the International
union aud TO obey the orders Of the latter
will be TO violate the best agreement the
bnckayers have ever secured.
Local 30 was suspended because Its dele
gate. Luke A. Burke, ordered a strike on
building because the installation OF the
fireproonng was sublet. Another charge
was that James Finn, another delegate OF
Local 80, tried to assault international Presi-
dent William A. Bowen at meeting in
this city after a dispute about the fireproof-
ing, Delegate Finn said yesterday about
this incident:
There was no threatened assault Bowen
was the aggTessor. We got into an argu-
ment and he wanted 20 fight. He said he
would meet me after the meeting AZ l25th
