DRICKLAYERs THREATEN war
II COntractOrs Don't Turn All Concrete
work DVee 70 1rneun.


The union bricklayers OF the Greater New
York nave taken action regarding the CON-
crete question which will either settle the
matter by brioklayers being employed to
set and lay concrete In all buildings where
concrete Ia used in any 70 run or lead TO
strikes involving hundreds Of buildings.
II was officially announced yesterday that
the Greater New York executive council OF
the bricklayers' unions has passed a resolu-
ton to the following efYeot:
That notice Is herewith given to the Mason
Builders Association. to all , general con-
tractors who are not member thereof aud to
all architects In the city OF New York that
whenever and wherever concrete Ia used In
building construction within the limits Of said
municipality the work must be done by union
brickla yers. none Of whom will hereafter seek
or accept employment from any contractor,
own er or architect that fails to comply with
this requirement.
This means, among other things, II was
explained, that the ~bricklayers demand at
brioklsyers' wages Of 10 cents an hour the
work Of pouring the concrete into the frame
work Of the walls Of buildings made OF re-
enforced concrete, which has hitherto been
lone by lab0rers, as well as the setting OF
the concrete in foor arches and the laying
Of concrete blocks. The bricklayers have
been doing the latter work Tor some time.
A leading member OF the executive COM
mittee said hat any action that might be
taken with regard to concrete by the New
York State convention of bricklayers would
not bind the Greater New York brioklayers
in any way.
we realize that concrete has come to
stay" he said, and we are going to take
the bull by the horns. 1t IL useless to try
TO stop the Use Of concrete, which Ia only
beginning and looks as IL it would extend
enormously. We have determined to pro-
tect ourselves and strikes will be ordered
against all contractors, owners or archi-
tects who employ others than brioklayers
where concrete II used in building con-
struction. Even where all the walls are
constructed Of concrete the damp proo1ng
ia Of brick and the bricklayers will refuse
to do this If the damp proohng Is not done
by b~ricklayers."
He said that the resolution was indorsed
at a meeting Of the trade arbitration board
Of the Mason Builders Association and the
bricklayers' unions and has been referred
to the association as a whole, which will
report to it's members on the board. As
the mason builders have comparatively
little concrete construction, 1t il expected
that they will agree to the re solution, and
the bulk of the strikes will be against the
other contractors,

Macdonald. editor Of the T~rIthseekeT and
residing at lO4 Hillside avenue, Glen Ridge,
has begun an action for SO. 600 damages
against Recorder William z. Smith Of the
same borough for false arrest. Mr.. Mac
Donald's fox terrier, Bobsie, figures in the
case to a large extent. Early Tuesday
morning Mr.. Macdonald returned to his
Glen Ridge home from Paterson and was
accompanied by Elmer Bowman. The
latter took the horse to the stable, while
Macdonald lighted up the house from first
floor to garnet, after which he proceeded to
take a nap The door was left unlocked.

Donald is said to have replied. This is

Bobsie began to bark, and the officer
told Macdonald to keep his dog quiet. add
ing that many complaints had been made
against the terrier. The policeman started
to leave the house, and Macdonald followed
him to the door, opening n for hin. Bobsie
took advantage Of the opportunity to get
some fresh air and bounded onto the stoop.
Macdonald says that standing on the
lawn was Recorder Smith, and when the dog
Smith struck at Bobsie with his cane,
whereupon Macdonald shouted:
"If you hit that dog I'll break your head
The Recorder ordered the policeman to
arrest Macdonald, and without giving
him a chance to put ON shoes, hat or coat
he was hustled OF to the police station,
four blocks away, although he says he
begged that he be allowed to dress properly
before going out on the street At the police
station Macdonald says he was ordered
placed in a cell by the Recorder. He de-
clares tina he asked what the charges
were, but that he got no satisfaction.
Il was thrust in the cell, says the editor,
and the dog went with me-. My imprison-
ment was brief, and soon the policeman
invited me out TO appear before the Re-
corder."
~You know" Smith il alleged to have
said, addressing Macdonald. Hthat IL you
threaten a Magistrate you do wrong"
But you were on my property" pro-
tested Macdonald, and you bad no right
there"
Macdonald was then released. A police
man was sent to his house to get his shoes,
says, was ordered to make no record Of the
affair.

NEW YORK'S WATER SUPPLY.
Objection 10 Including SchOhaPie Creek
Within the Reservoir Area.

ALBANY, Sept. 1.-THE State Water
Commission has received communications
from the Canal Board, State Engineer
Van Alstyne and superintendent Of Public
Works Franchot requesting that action
be deferred O the proposition to include
the waters Of Schoharie Greek within the
proposed water supply reservoir area for
New York city until the State has had an
opportunity TO be heard in the matter. As
yet the Water Commission has not received
the application covering this source Of
supply from the authorities Of New York
city.
The Schoharie Creek is one OF the largest
feeders Of the Mohawk River, which will
be a part Of the barge canal, and the diver
sion Of it's waters, IL is feared, would handicap
the State in the operation Of the big canal.
IL has been suggested hat the waters might

Washington, July 20.-Plans for the
largest and best drydock in the world
are being prepared in the bureau OF
Yards and Docks at the Navy depart
ment, to cost 81 ,250, 900 and to be con-
structed at the Bremerton navy yard,
Puget sound. Washington. This amount
is the largest ever appropriated for a
dock, and the new dock will be able to
take in the largest battleship, either in
course of construction or in contem-
plation. The location has already been
selected, and borings are being made to
learn the depth of foundation. 1t is to
be concrete dock OF the largest pat
tern and materials will be purchased on
the Pacific coast If practicable.
The dock is to be so constructed that
it can be heightened If vessels of great
er length should be built in the future.
1t will be 81 feet in depth over sill,
which will provide Tor the docking OF
any vessel that can be built, unless
some now unknown system of building
is developed. The greater depth of the
new dock is also designed to meet cases
where vessel has been injured and
draws much more than the ordinary
depth on account of the injury.

San Francisco Insurance May Reach

San Francisco, CAL, July 21.- 1t

figures given in reports filed by the
companies with the New York Insur-
ance department indicate that even the
highest estimate which they have made
is too low.
Several weeks after the confagration
