leans to Engage in An
nual Target Work During
Winter Months.


Two companies Of regular army
artilleryrnen arrived in Pensacola
yesterday from New Orleans to engage

tain. He made many friends in the
city and will be warmly welcomed
The troops will be barracked at
Fort Barrancas and will receive pre-
liminary instructions before taking
part in the practice, which will be
commenced in about three weeks. The
target work will occupy a considerable
portion of the winter and the pres
ence in Pensacola of two additional
companies of regulars will add much
to the liveliness of the city.
Arrangements for the reception OF
the new troops were completed some
days ago. TIL garrisons at Fort Bar
rancas and Fort Pickens will also
take part in the annual practice and
there is sure to be keen rivalry be-
tween the various companies for eff
cheney marks in gunnery, spotting and
general range work.
It is understood considerable night
firing will be done and both the old
and new officers are busy getting
ready for the intensive work of the
work of the next few weeks.

Action to Be Taken in Sym
pathy for Carpenters Who
Are Demanding Closed
Shop of Builders.
OVER TWO HUNDRED
MEN TO BE AFFECTED
Ship Yard, Navy Yard,
Bruce Docks and Other
Water Front Construc-
ton Workers Will Not Be
Included.

A general strike of all building
trades in the city has been called for
Monday morning. The announcement
was made following meeting of the
Metal Trades Council last night.
There is no Building Tades Council in
the city and the carpenters, plumbers
and filters, bricklayers, electricians,
and some other trades, are affiliated
with the Metal Trades Council.
The strike is being called in sym
pathy with the carpenters, who are
asking a closed shop from the Build
ers' Association, of which Mr.. Nc
IntoSh, Of the Southern Construction
Compan, is secretary, and c. H.
Turner, of the Turner Construction
Company, is president.
Mr.. Turner declined to discuss the
proposition last night, saying that he
could not talk outside the association
meeing. He admitted having received
a letter from a committee of the
Trades Council. but declined to com
ment on it or its contents.
Asked if the matter would be dis
cussed at the regular meeting of the
Builders Association. Monday, Mr..
Turner said it probabr- would, but he
was iiOl ItdaS 10 say @HdL COHStU6f-
alton would be given it. He was nom
cemmittal. but it is believed the as
ssociation WIZ fatty refuse to con-
slider the closed shop proposition.
III. s. Kelley, of the Central Trades
and Labor Council, said, when asked
about the proposed strike, that the
walkout would take place as scheduled
and that every tradesman in the city
would obey the call. He did not care
to estimate the number. but it is said
to be between two and three hundred.
According to Mr.. Kelley, the ship
yard and the navy yard will not be
affected Neither will the Bruce dry
docks no other water front construc-
tion. The strike, if carried out as
proposed, will be the first serious
labor difficulty in Pensacola in many
months.
A week ago one local chapter of the
Tailors' Union walked out, but their
grievances we're compromised and the
men went back to work after being
out little more than a week.

which he said would presently be laid
before the senate and upon which he
asked that bodys early action-were
the following:
