this is the reason that Anderson Bros

non-union workmen.
The local brcklay ersJ in order tc
hold the charter Of the local union
were forced into tie action on the nine
hour day but they are very fair in their
demands. They do mot ask for the
same pay they + ave b cen given before
but simply ward to work one hour a
day less and receive The proportionate
decrease IN wages.
Mr.. Johnson stated this afternoon
that the report that his firm would en-
ploy non-uniop. bricklayers was not
true.
IF the BRIG klayers are not reasonable
in their der,lands," said Mr.. Johnson

the firm who are bricklayers and, rath-
| er than submit to the unreasonable de-
mandS which the bricklayers are al
legged ITO have made, will don working
clothf.s and do our. own work.
1--WE do not object to the nine hour
day at the same rate of pay as before
but we do object to paying men &c
Gents an hour who are only worth &C
cents. We have been informed that
this is what the brick layers now de-
mand. Heretofore We have been ac-
customed to pay brick layers whatever
they were worth. Men who had only
been working at the trade for a short
time we have paid from 80 cents an
hour upwards, and experienced brick
layers we have paid as high as 65 cents
an hour.
l. we have been notified that hereafte1
the minimum scale will be 90 cents al
| hour and the best bricklayers will de-
mand even more. We do not object to
paying the good bricklayers the high
scale but We do not propose to pay in
experienced men the same wages as
the others"

THE PECULIAR ANTICS
OF THE GULF STREAM.

Since the earthquake that destroyed
Valparaiso, Chile. last month mariners
have been greatly puzzled by the ac-
tions OF the gulf stream, says special
dispatch from Norfolk. Va, TO the New
York Times North Of Hatteras II has
been running in more northerly di-
rection and more swiftly, with the re-
suit that vessels bound up the coast
get to Norfolk before scheduled time
and vessels bound down the coast be-
coined stalled off Hatteras, where quite
feet of sailing vessels is reported to
be.
The effect of the earthquake was felt
off Cape Hatteras on Diamond shoals,
where Lightship 70 was stationed. Cap
tain Hanson of the light vessel, which
recently came into Norfolk for repairs,
told the story.
ION Aug. Is, 10 and 20 the ship acted
very queerly, and we were at loss to
account for It," he said. THE compass
swung from east TO northeast and back
to southeast. There was n short. choppy
sea The gulf stream changed It's
course and for ten days we had no
current while the water around the
ship changed from the familiar blue
of the gulf to dirty green. ON the
tenth day we found the stream flowing
past us as before, and there was no
further interruption"

of dress, probably the greatest variety In
the fashions is shown In blouses, for IL

Black and white effects are many
among the new blouses and obtain nov

so that one quite forgets the fact that the
combination has been with US at least a
season or two. II is interesting to know
that Paris has set the stamp OF approval
upon waists OF soft silk and velvet. and
both OF these materials have already
gained a remarkably hold on the fash
ionable world. Not only are the light
tones shown for separate waists, but
