100000 MEN
IN CHICAGO
MAY STRIKE
Walk-out Will Affect All
Building Operations in
City.

Chicago, July 1s.-Building opera
tions in Chicago are at standstill to-
day and more than 100000 workmen
are idle as a result of a lockout or
dered by the executive committee of
the Building Construction Employers
association of Chicago.
Yesterday the organization issued
an ultimatum. declaring that unless
the carpenters, lathers, iron workers
and other. unions who have been on
a strike, returned to work by 8
o'clock this morning: the builders
tions.
The strikers ignored the threat and
early in the day the executive COM
mittee of the builder employers sent
letter by special messenger to every
contractor with instruction to imme-
diately stop work of every character.
Chicago. July 1s.-More than 1o0,-
900 men employed in Chicago build
unless strikes for higher pay involv-
ing about $4,000 of their members,
are called off. An ultimatum to the
striking building trades that they re-
turn to work by o'clock this morn
ing, was issued yesterday by the
Building Construction Employers as
sociation.
The $1,000 carpenters will ignore
the order, according to D. j. Ryan
secretary of the joint arbitration
board and member of the carpenters
district council.
The remainder Of the men who are
out either to enforce demands OF
their own or in sympathy with the
carpenters, also will ignore the con-
tractors order, declared Edward N
Nockels, secretary of the Chicago
Federation of Labor.
The lockout may be extended to the
, brick and lumber yards, sand and
gravel pits. This will mean the clos
: ing of these plants and the dismissing
of about $4,000 workers.

New York, Aug. 11.-Reports that the
south was showing a disposition TO sell
hedges against spot cotton on bulges
seemed to encourage a renewal Of scatter
ing liquidation and pressure from other
sources in the cotton market today. De.
mand was very light and prices broke
sharply in consequence. October closed at
SI29c with the general list closing at a
net loss of 81 to 80 points. The market
was SO narrow comparatively small orders
were sufficient to affect prices.
The opening was steady at unchanged

renewal of the covering movement respon-
sible for the sharp advance late last week
Offerings increased on the bulge, how
ever, and prices soon weakened. Stop
orders were uncovered as prices eased off
and the market became more unsettled
during the early afternoon. owing to the
irregular ruling of the stock market and
reports from New Orleans that the tropi-
cal storm reported south of Jamaica was
not likely to reach the belt The close
showed rallies of only Is or 20 points on

buyers were out early and the demand
from this quarter appeared to be active
and reasonably broad. Compared with

sheep sold at prices steady to a little
