THE STRIKERS LOOKOUT
Masbr Builders Will Not Confer With l|asons, Carpenters and Plumbers.

The master builders held meet. ing last night and discussed the strike question. A communication
 was read from the Masons'. Carpen- ters' and Plumbers union, signed by Charles Mulholland and Joseph Hay den, asking that committee be ap- pointed with full power to act to con fer with a committee from the unions for the purpose of arbitration, to which the association prepared and adopted reply as follows
 Charles Mulholland and Joseph Hay den, Chairman and Secretary of
 the Masons', Carpenters and
 Plumbers Unions:
 Gentlemen: Your communication of this date asking that the Master Builders association appoint a com mittee from our organization to meet a like committee from your organiza- tion, both having full power to act, is received. Our organization, repre- senting all branches of the building trades, sees no reason for appointing a committee for a conference. There Is nothing whatever to arbitrate. There was no cause whatever for a strike unless it be a desire to make trouble and cause needless loss to the employer, to the wage earner and to the public, who pay the bills. There was no question of wages, no question of hours, no question of good treat mept of help in the various crafts. It was an effort. pure and simple, to force the employing master carpen- ters to again unionize their men or submit to the loss and inconvenience of a strike by the journeymen masons and plumbers A sympathetic strike, having no basis of equity, justice or reason, there are no grounds for a conference or arbitration.
 This association voted, soon after the strike took place, to declare an open shop on all striking employees of whatever trade, discriminating against neither union or non-union men. We again reafiirm the same and every member of our organiza- tion is pledged to maintain this posi- tion. Our organization means to conduct its affairs on generous, broad-gauge plan. We ask for noth- ing but fair and honorable treatment. Had we received such treatment from your association We should have had no strike with all it's cost, delays and disappointments, that mean loss to the public, the honest, industrious mechanic, and to the builder who is trying to make an honest living.
 Regretting the course you have taken, and hoping your association will realize that to prolong the pres ent conditions will be detrimental to every interest of our city, as the in- terest of owners, employers and me- chanics are mutual. There should be harmony and good feeling -instead of discord and discontent.

CHICAGO'S UNIQUE REQUEST
Fund of $4,000 Year Now AvaiIa-
BILE For Art Monuments

uhu OF S<0.ooO 20 ear NOW Ay01Ia-
BILE For Art Monuments.
Fountains and statues soon will be-
gin to spring up all over Chicago. and
all will be guaranteed to be "a No l.
art by the trustees of the Art institute
and also will bear the 30. *" of the
municipal art commission, says a Chi
cago dispatch. The first years crop of
statuary will be worth about $4,000,
and the annual harvest will increase
until in fifteen or twenty years from
now Chicago will be decorated with
nearly 5000 worth of brand new art
every year, and its parks will look like
cemeteries or art museums, while it's
streets will resemble courts of honor
during Il fall festival.
This large order of art decorations is
due to the legal establishment of the
100000 fund left by Benjamin f
Ferguson, who died a year ago. His
entire estate was bequeathed to Chi
cago to form Il trust fund, the income
of which is to be expended by the
board of trustees of the Art institute
lin the erection and maintenance of
enduring statues and monuments
The trust fund was legally estab-
lished in the probate court. on May %,
and the trustees of the Art institute
met recently TO consider hoN to eX-
pend the first installment of the in
come.
President Charles l.. Hutchinson of
the Art institute has suggested that
the first piece of statuary authorized
by the board of trustees take the form
of an elaborate memorial TO the donor
of the unique and magnificent art trust
fund for Chicago. The late Mr.. Fer
guson provided in his will that the es-
tate should not he touched until ii
amounted to S1.00O,0OO,'' said Presi-
dent Hutchinson. when the year re-
quired by law for probating expired on
May % the estate amounted to S1,075,-
900. When the requests are satisfied
we have left about $4,000 year for
the art requests. We are very fortu-
nate. however, since the Ferguson
fund is the only one of the kind in the
whole world

COAL TAR JUBILEE.
A Chemfsts' Clubs Celebration In
Honor of Professor PerkIn.


Honor of Professor Perkin.
As was hoped the movement to cele
brate the fiftieth anniversary of the
coal tar industry has become an inter
national affair, says the New York
Post. Scientists of Germany, France,
Belgium, Italy and America have
adopted England's plan to commem-
crate Professor Perkins discovery of
the first aniline dye, ''mauve." Under
the auspices of the Chemists club of
New York celebration will take place
late in September in New York city.
The jubilee will be attended by large
number of Americas most prominent
scientists; also by John Bigelow, re-
Gently minister to France; Joseph II.
Choate, eX-ambassador to England; Al
fred c. Coke, judge of the second Unit
ed States circuit court of appeals; Pc
ter S Grosscup. judge of the seventh
United States circuit court of appeals;
Comptroller Herman A Metz, General
Horace Porter Secretary Elihu Root,
Judge William X Townsend and
Judge William J. Wallace Others in
attendance will be presidents of the
largest American universities and
prominent patent lawyers, who are ac-
lively interested in the celebration.
Professor Perlin himself probably will
be present.
Aside from the practical advantages
which have resulted from the discovery
made by Professor Perkin ipt 1886. the
science of chemistry has profited won
derfully. Particularly in America,
where the coal tar industry is enor-
nous, has the discovery had great
effect. 1t gave to the study of organic
chemistry and TO chemistry in general
Il powerful stimulus. 1t also opened
up n new field in the creation of new
compounds possessing wonderful phys
biological properties, and the materia
medica consequently has been enrich
ed by the addition of hundreds and
even thousands of new remedies which
were not previously known, including
such as phenacetin. antipyrin and salOl.
In connection with the jubilee there
will be a banquet and symposium on
the progress of synthetic chemistry, in
Guiding the results in relation to theo-
retical chemistry, the arts of dyeing
and calico printing. the production of
new remedies, antiSepticS and per-
fumes. 1t is intended to present TO
Professor Perkin an appropriate token
of appreciation of his services.
y prize to be known as the Perkn
medal Will be esta blished and awarded
annually to the American chemist who
shall have rendered the most imp0r-
tant service TO the science of applied
chemistry in the previous year. An
other feature of the jubilee will he the
foundation of national library of
chemical works and periodicals situat-
ed in New York and consisting Of
permanent reference library and Il du-
p!icate circulating library for the ben
eft of chemists throughout the United

WONDERFUL CURE BY
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Last year at this time l suffered
with a tremendous itching on my
back, which grew worse and worse, un-
til it spread over the whole body, and
only my face and hands were free.
For four months or so l suffered the
torments of the damned, and had to
scratch, scratch, scratch, until l bled.
At night when went to bed things
got worse, and / had at times to get
up and scratch my body all over, until
j was as sore as could be, and until
suffered excruciating pains. l did not
know what it was, and resorted to
number of blood purifiers, using at
times also Cuticura Soap. They told
me then that / was suffering from
eczema. Then / made up my mind
that l would also use Cuticura ONT
ment and Cuticura Resolvent. L used
them according to instructions, and very
soon indeed / was greatly relieved. L
continued until well, and now | am
ready to recommend the Cuticura Rem
edies to any one who suffers as did your
