BUILDING TRADES
ARE TIED Up
The Carpenters at Chicago
and Des Moines Out on
a Strike
BLAME HIGH COST OF LIVING
Demand Increase in Pay of Five
Cents an Hour, and May
Ask for More.

Bv Special Leased Wire to New Mexicanl
Chicago, H., April building op-
erations aggregating expenditures es-
timated at from 100000 to $780,
100000, were affected in Chicago and
lis environs today by strike of A.
coo carpenters, who We're ordered to
suspend work this morning. Contrac-
tors and carpenters estimate that
construction work on at least 500
buildings has come to a stop.
The carpenters are demanding 60
cents an hour, an increase of . cents
an hour.
The situation was given a more
serious aspect today when union lead
ers made the statement that a great
er increase would be demanded should
employers appear obstinate in grant
ing the demands made.
The Chicago downtown district
stands to be the most vitality affected.
Several skyscrapers are in course OF
construction at a cost ranging from
$10O0,0O0 to $3,0OO,OOO each.
High Cost of Living to Blame.
Des Moines, Ia, April 1-Union car
penters of Des Moines went on strik e
today because of the master builders
refusal to grant the increase in
wages. Practically every large build
ing in course of construction is de-
serted. The carpenters demand an
increase in wages from 80 to SOC an
hour, giving the high cost of living as
the principal reason.

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
London April Although the ma
jority of the one million miners who
quit work on March l, are waiting the
returns of the ballot on the question
whether they should resume work,
there was today the sign, welcome to
the whole country, of coal tubs run
ming on the colliery railways. Thus
far of the $4,000 votes counted, more
than $4,000 have declared for resump-
tion.
A few factories in some districts,
which had boarded coal, were able to
reopen as they are assured of future
supplies, but others which had no
coal in stock as well as some of the
big cotton mills and iron works in
Lancanshire, which have been hitherto
kept going by the exercise of the
stlictest economy, will now be forced
to shut down or short time. Out
side the ranks of the miners, there
are more men out of work today than
then there were week ago, it is cal

SAW HIS DUTY POINTED CUT
Advertisement of John Ware Gave
Valuable Idea to the Travelling
Salesman.

"While working through Pennsyl.
vania recently saw an advertisement
that ought to bring relief to few dis
tressed souls" said the travelling
salesman. 1T headed the personal col
umn and said:
BE 1t hereby known to all my cor
respondents that l have this day de-
stroyed all letters they would wish to
be destroyed. JOHN WARE
THAT notice was so extraordinary
that l stopped over for late train and
called on John Ware. He was a genial
old man and willing to talk. He said
he was a person to whom people vol
UNFAIRLY confided secrets; that many
persons in bursts Of confidence had
written letters to him which they no
doubt afterward regretted having
written.
Sometimes they said, Destroy
this; sometimes they didn't. Anyhow,
John Ware had kept most of those in
eliminating letters. Put now that he
was getting old he had seen what
harm might result from those letters
falling into strange and INSCRIPTIONS
hands, and he had burned them and
had taken that novel way Of notifying
his correspondents that they were
safe.
THAT talk with John Ware set me-
thinking. The first thing did when
got back to New York was TO burn a
batch of letters"

NOT ALLOWED TO INTERRUPT

Successful End After Chef Had
Dropped Dead of Cholera.

How completely in any domestic
emergency the master can count on
his Berber servants is illustrated by
this grim anecdote from Mrs. f. l.
Butchers book, Egypt as We Knew
It." An Englishman of very high
rank in the Egyptian service wished
to give in his own house dinner
party to the prime minister and other
Egyptian and English notables. He
was a bachelor, and did not often en-
terrain, but he spoke to his servants,
and told them that he particularly
wished the dinner to be successful.
The Egyptian, or rather Berber,
servant has a quick sense for the
honor of "our house." as every good
servant calls his masters abode. So
the servants bestirred themselves,
and the guests sat down to an excel
lent dinner, beautifully served
Good fish succeeded good soup, and
then there was a pause. The host
talked his best, but began to feel
nervous. However, after delay
