Chicago. July "A new move for
peace in the building trades situa-
ton was made today by Edward
Hines, a leading lumberman.
Mr.. Hines invited representatives OF
the carpenters union, the building
contractors. aud the material manu-
facturers' organization to meet with
him. All accepted.
Mr.. Hines said he thought they
would be able to get together on SONS
plan to restore peace.
Forty-three lumber yards and
sixty-five brick plants were closed for
business today, throwing several thou
sand men out of employment. The
establishments will not make deliv-
cries of any building material until
the strike of $4,000 carpenters is set
tied.
The eleventh hour decision of the
allied building construction and ma
terial interests to continue manufac-
turing operations, but not to sell,
placed more optimistic aspect on the
lockout against the carpenters and
other striking building trade work.
men.
No building material, either brick
or wood. will be permitted to reach
any building contractor or manufac-
turer in Chicago, however, until peace
is restored in the Industrial war.

FOR EXTRADITION
Publication of Avila's Request Causes
Widespread Discussion.

FL Paso, July adjudication of the
request for the eXtradition Of General
Victoriano Huerta made upon Gov
ernor Ferguson of Texas by Fidel
Avila governor of Chihuahua through
appointment by General Villa, caused
widespread discussion in Mexican cir
cles here today American federal
and state officials and General Euertd
were silent, however
Villa officials based their action on
the treaty which permits governors
of adjoining American and Mexican
states to deal directly in handling
fugitiVeS 1t was understood they
based their request on the execution
of Abraham Gonzales. a former gov
ernor of Chihuahua, maintaining that
Huerta was responsible for ordering g
the execution.
Friends of Huerta maintained this
case was not analogous to previous in
cidents in which the treaty rights have
been exercised, arguing that the gov
ernment in Chihuahua is defactO and
has not been given recognition.
