FINDINGS OF THE BOARD.
Terms Upon Which Truce Among the
Plumbers is Declared.

In view of certain Irregularities in the
published accounts of the findings Of the
board Of arbitrators in the controversy be-
tween the employing plumbers and the
members of the Journeymen Plumbers
Union, the Master Plumbers Association
last night furnished The Sunday Star with
the following official findings Of the board
of arbitration:
Whereas, upon the question Of whether
the members of Local Union, No. s, shall
return to work pending the arbitration, the
principal difficulty upon the part Of the
members of said union appearing to be
their obligation not to work with non-union
men, and the principal difficulty upon the
part Of the master plumbers appearing to
be the necessity Of being able to shift men
from one job to another as occasion may
require, the board of arbitration does here
by award that pending the arbitration the
members of Local Union. No. S, return to
work as the master plumbers may be able
to provide employment for them; no MEM
Der to be required to work with non-union
men, and on the other hand, any master
plumber to have the right to furlough or
discharge any journeyman whenever in his
Judgment the economical and advantageous
conduct of his business may require such
action; no additional union men to be
employed or re-employed pending the arbl-
tration, so long as members of Local Union,
No. 5. are ready and willing to return to
work in accordance with this award.
"The board of arbitration does hereby
award that pending the arbitration the
members of Local Union, No. 5, return to
work with any helpers now employed and
actually in the pay of any of the master
plumbers, and that pending the arbitra-
ton all additional helpers or apprentices
employed shall be members Of the helpers
union or of the apprentices union, respect
lively, so long as members of the said re-
spective unions shall be ready and willing
to return to work in accordance with this
award; no master plumber to work at any
time, although he may keep under pay, more
than two helpers to every three journey
men plumbers, or more than three helpers
to every five journeymen plumbers; mol
pending the arbitration shall any apprentice
or helper be employed to do any work other
than such as on or prior to March g. 1905,
was recognized as the work Of an appren-
tice or helper respectively.
1.-The board Of arbitrators further awards
that the master plumbers employ none but
union helpers with union men, 80 far as
In their judgment the economical and ad-
vantageous conduct of their business may
permit"

DAMAGED BY FIRE.
Brisk Blaze Last Night Attracts
Large Crowd of Spectators.

Large CfOWQ OF spectators.
The fire department was summoned Sat-
urday night by an alarm that had been
turned in from box 1s1, and found a
blaze in the rear part Of building at
1916 G street northwest, owned by Dr.J. Ford
Thompson. Hundreds of spectators quick
ly gathered on the sidewalk. 1t was re-
ported that two women were In room on
the third floor, and 1t was feared that they
would be overcome by smoke, but they soon
appeared at the door of the building and
we're taken to a place of safety. One Of
them, Mrs. George Van Sickle, fell upon
the steps while trying to procure bucket
Of water for Crossing Policeman Gawler,
and was slightly hurt The fire was dis
covered in a closet on the second floor, and
about the same time the policeman, who
was at 14th and G streets, heard the alarm
and responded to a call for assistance. He
Immediately had message sent to NO.
engine company.
While waiting for the firemen to respond
the policeman went to the second floor of
the. building and made an effort to ex-
tfnguish the fire, and while Mrs. Van Sickle
was assisting him she fell upon the steps.
She and her mother, Mrs. Reupp, had to
be assisted from the house. Meanwhile
dense smoke was pouring from the upper
windows, and it was feared the flames
would cause serious damage.
Members of the fire department worked
hard to prevent loss, and it was necessary
for them TO use considerable amount of
water. This soaked through the floors and
walls and caused considerable damage,
most of which, it is said, was caused TO
the building, estimated to be about $500,
while the loss in the stock and stationery
In the rooms of the Morrison Office Supply
Company is estimated at about SEQ. Slight
damage was also caused to the contents of
other rooms in the building. Those who
occupied the rooms in the building included
| T. A. Hardy, Arthur Carr, c. F. Benjamin
and w. NICK. Clayton.
When the fire had been extinguished the
police and 1iremen made efforts to deter.
| mine its origin. One of the firemen stated
| that he learned a man had been smoking a
| pipe In the building and he thought sparks
| from the pipe had caused the fire.
