OF the Military and the
Pan-Gerrnan Party.

PARIS, March 15.-The latest advices
TO the French Foreign Office from Ber-
lin. Il was said to-day, indicated that
the revolution in Prussia had thus far
been confined to the Military and the
Pan-GeIman Party and was without
other political support Leaders Of the
conservative parties and such industrial
leaders as DR.. Walter Rathenau, Presi-
dent OF the German General Electric
Company, It was declared. had con-
demned the movement.
From all the information thus far re-
ceived, II was added. the impression In
Official circles was that the Military
Party might hold possession OF Berlin
and other important centres and pro-
long the state OF uncertainty for some
time, possibly a month or two, but that
without the support Of other political
clements than the Pan-German Party
he movement WAS doomed TO failure.

$4,000 men-would stick by their
present wage agreements throughout
the present year. This with the ex-
ception of the bricklayers, whom he
admitted had refused to sign con-
tracts with the employers along with
the rest Of the thirty odd unions
represented in the Building Trades
Council.
The difference with the bricklayers,
he said, was because they demanded
$40 a day. All the rest Of the building
trades have signed up for $S a day
with the exception of the plasterers,
who receive $3.50 Mr.. Brindcu
pledged the building trades to 100 per
cent. faithful work and said they
stood ready to put up a bond that
they would fulfil their agreements.
He said he hoped before long to have
the bricklayers in line,
Regarding the controversy with the
Iron Erectors' League, Mr.. Brindell
said the building trades workers
would not go ahead with any building
on which the steel had been erected
by non-union workers. He charged
that the Iron Erectors' League is
dominated by the United States Steel
Corporation.
For the bricklayers, John Gill said
they had been on strike since Jan. 1.
They asked $l25 an hour against 81
for the other trades because they
worked fewer hours, owing to
weather conditions and lack Of mate
iials, than any other trade in the
building industry. He said he was
sure there would be a quick settlement
if the Mayor would arrange u confer
ence between the bricklayrs' arbitra-
tion committee and the employers
association

Many Of the financial people in our

whole business lies in Russia. They
say the Associated Powers have made
a grave mistake In hesitating 10 open
Russia to trade. This would have

America Is to blame for holding up

)oEsNU'T BELIEVE PRICE OF
BRICK WILL BE RAISED.

William X. Hammond, President Of
the National Brickmakers' Associa-
ton, declared that he did not believe
the present price OF brick would be
advanced during an agreed upon
building period. He laughingly an
nounced that because of the law
against price fixing and the threat Of
the Lockwood Legislative Committee
to put price fXers in jail it would
not he safe for him to give public,
positive assurance that the brick
manufacture are willing to adhere
to a fixed price for a period which
may be agreed upon by those inter-
ested in the building boom.
Mr.. Hammond previously had
stated that brick would be $25 a
thousand when navigation opens at
the towing wharfs on the Hudson.
This, according to a representative
Of bricklayers' union, means $S7
thousand at new buildings. Mr..
Hammond said there were 15O,0OO,O 900
brick on hand and he didn't think
the price of this would be advanced.
Mr.. Hammond attacked bricklayers
for failing TO keep their agreements.
"All we ask is that the bricklayers
show the same patriotism displayed
| by our boys who fought for democ-
racy," continued Mr.. Hammond. Let
bricklayers realize that in building
homes they are sheltering humanity,
supprcsng radcMsm. If they do their
| part wen do ours"
The first reference 10 the labor
troubles that have held up building
was made by MIR. Roberts, counsel for
the Iron League Erectors' Association,
who said his organization had refused
| to bind itself to the closed shop, lie
said work was going ahead on the
open shop basis and that the iron
erectors would not give preference tc
union labor He admitted the iron
erectors had stood out against the
representatives Of other branches OF
the industry in the Building Trades
| Employers Association.

HINT AT MULTIPLICATION SEEN
IN MOVEMENT.

Indeed, not a few people here look
upon the German revolution as the
skilful plot Of the wealthy classes in
Germany, who would bear the great
est burden of tho indemnity, to get
out from under. Already the new
Berlin Governments has set itself up
as a Judge Of what terms Of the
treaty II will fulfll-thOse that seem
"iust and reasonable" This is vir-
tual hint Of notification, and is ad-
mittedly having a disquicting effect
here.
For the truth is the associated
powers are not in a position immedi-
ately TO make Germany pay. Amer
ica has about 1900 troops on the
Rhine, England has not many more.
France has scarcely 100000. In diff
ferent parts OF Germany are many
hundreds Of thousands Of troops,
large numbers of whom are mobil-
ized. But Germany is without muni-
tions and military opinion here seems
to doubt that she Is counting fresh
trouble with the allies on the Rhine
1t is rather an analogy to the situa-
ton in Russia when the BolsheNikis
agreed to the treaty Of BreSt-
I.itovsk and assumed an attitude OF
passive resistance TO the enforce
ment Of its terms.
IL would cost the Allies a good dea
to enforce peace upon Germany, anc
the Government of the latter probably
knows it. Americas army has gone
home across the Atlantic. The Brit
ish Army has gone to the far ends oi
the earth. The French Army Is prac'
tically demobilized. Only economic
pressure can make Germany behave
and she thinks the pressure of te'
peace terms is worse than anything
that could possibly be done to her j
she threw up her hands in despai
and declined to carry out the term'
OF tho treaty. There is reason to be
! ievc that Germany did hope for th'
Influence Of the United States
coupled with that Of Great Britain
to offset the terms which Frame
was 80 instrumental In impos
| ing upon her Moreover, III
election pledges Of Lloyd George T.
make Germany pay have now beer
superseded by a strong labor senu
mont which openly advocates re
vision of the terms Of peace with Ger
many.
