the latter.

taking a deep interest in the imbroglio
and it is said that he will have some
thing to say to the respective factions on
the matter Of getting together and elect
ing a Senator. Whether any advice which
he may give will avail however, cannot
be foretold

METAL WORKERS BACK DOWN.
Call on the Strike Pending Decision by
the Arbitration Board.

The arbitration agreement of the Build
ing Trades Employers Association pre-
vailed yesterday in the case of the Anal
gamated Sheet Metal Workers. the strike
being called of at the last moment pending
al arbitration. The strike was not called of
a day too soon, as meeting Of the board of
COVE nor's of the employers association
had been called for yesterday afternoon
to declare the union locked out. II that
had been done the employers would at once
have begun to fill the places of the strikers
with new men to be formed into new union
under the arbitration agreement
The sudden ending Of the strike was
precipitated by the action of the General
Arbitration Board of the Building Trades
Employers Association at an adjourned
meeting early yesterday morning, ordering
the strikers back to work at once on pain
of immediate expulsion.
The decision of the arbitra ton board
was conveyed to a meeting of the strikers,
which was in progress at the Mania ttan
Lyceum, G East Fourth street. 1t created
consterna ton. Those in favor of con-
tinuing the strike talked in vain. A motion
ton was carried by acclamation and at
noon there Was stampede of the strikers
back to their jobs.
When the board Of governors met yes
terday afternoon there was nothing for
it to do rega riding the strike. The arbitra-
ton board will meet to-day to take up the
demands Of the sheet metal workers. 1t is
thought possible that the advance de-
manded may be awarded.
