 Jobs Affected.

Chicago, Jan. "A fight on the open shop issue in the building trades of Chicago was in prospect to- day when members of five unions went out on 8 sympathetic strike with the union carpenters who have refused to work under the Landis wage award.
 Four large jobs, involving a con struction cost of s4,50O,00o, were af- fected by the strike order issued by the business agents of the cement fin- ishers. painters, plumbers, steamtt- ters and hoisting engineers. Members of those unions were instructed to re- main away from work unless non union carpenters were discharged
 Employers declared that the jobs would be filled with craftsmen willing to do work under the reduced wages of the Landis scale under which, it is said, nearly every large construction job in Chicago is being operated.

SOCIAL WORKERS
 ELECT OFFICERS
Miss Beale'S Reelection Assured
 But Presidency in Doubt

Election of officers for the coming year and other business of vital inn portance to the members will be transacted following the supper of the New Britain Social Workers confer ence at the Y. w. c. A. tomorrow night The present officers are: Pres ident, Marshall R. Cook, superintend- ent of the Boys Club, and secretary treasurer, Miss Cora M. Beale. The meeting tomorrow night will elect to- these offices for the ensuing term.
 Both Mr. Cook and Miss Beae have had a successful year despite severe financial handicaps and there is strong sentiment in favor of their re- election. In the case of Miss Beale there does not seem to be any doubt
 ,ut that she will encounter no opposi- tion. Mir Cook has been known to state that he will accept the office if the members insist upon his so doing, but that in his own opinion someone else should have a try at it. In case Mir. Cook does not succeed himself, it is likely that Americani- zation Director James E. O'Brien, who has been one of the most active com mittee workers during the past year, and shows unusual ability, will be the next president
 The supper will be served at 6:3O o'clock. Those intending to be pres ant, who have not notified Miss Beale by this time, should do so not later than this evening.
 A special attraction and one to which the public is invited, will be the address by Charles F. Dow, ot the Bureau of Child Welfare All persons in the city interested in child welfare, such as school teachers ana officials, church and Sunday schoo. eaders, etc., are invited to hear the lecture.

PELLETIER LOSES
 THREE COURT MOVES
'crtain Paragraphs, Which are 05- jected to, Will Stand-Can
 Take Deposition.

Boston, Jan. 4.-The supreme court today ruled against three motions made by counsel for District Attorney Joseph c. Pelletier in his trial on charges of misconduct which Attor- ney General J. Weston Allen had ad- vanced as reasons for his removal from office.
 The proceedings, the court holds, are of a civil rather than a criminal nature AS such dispositions may be taken. The immediate effect of this ruling will be taken by the attorney general by obtaining a deposition of Mrs. Agnes l.. Roehl of St. Louis, for use in connection with the allegation that Pelletier conspired with Daniel H. Coakley an attorney, and others to frighten her husband, Albert Y. Smith, by threats of criminal prose- cution into paying her s37,500 ali mony.
 The court denied a motion by coun- sel for the district attorney to strike out certain paragraphs which made alternative charges. The charges as stated were held to be sufficient in law and the court held also that the motion came too late
 In dismissing another motion that the attorney general be required forthwith to elect which of the alter native charges he would proceed on, the court said it acted without preiu- dice and that counsel might renew the motion after evidence had closed.
