POSSIBILITY OF
GENERAL TIE-UP
BUILDING TBADES' COUNCIL
WILL PROBABLY ORDEIt ONE.
This Action Caused by Builders' Ex
change's Finn- Attitude Set of
Resolutions Adopted by Building
Trades' Council Sinkers at West
Ridge Colliery Out on Strike They
Demand Higher Wages Breaker
Boys at Johnson's Collloiy Have
Also Caught the Strike Craze.
Tho Builders' Exchange held a meet
ing lit thelt moms last evening. Thuie
was n "stnndlng room" only crowd In
attendance, nnd though the leport was
given out that only toutlno bjslneps
was trunsactcd it can safely bo stated
that tho members of tho Fxchango de
cided not to budge an inch. As a tesult
of this position it is expected that the
Building Tindes' council nt their &
clal meeting tonight w ill decide upon a
general tie-up, calling out tho wood
worker and bilcklnyeis. This will
leave all the mills Idle and It is sup
posed that it will have the effect of
bringing tho contractors to terms.
Following is a copy of a sot of reso
lutions adopted by the Building T.-aucn
council at a meeting held June l:
Rexohed, That un contractor or llim
emploving any unfair labor on any job
In tho city of Scranton, during tho BtrtiR
gle between the liulldlng Trades' count 11
nnd tho Hultders' exchange, shull bo

aralnst Mid contiaUor or llim on the
books of the count II. The maximum flno
to bo $1,010 The minimum fine to be $1W.
according to the decision of the liulldlng
Trades' council. Halt of said line to go
to the liulldlng Trades' council, thu other
half to the local union ulfccteil
Resolved, That no man nlitllated with
any labor or branch union represented in
tho liulldlng Trades' rouncll, Shall work
for said contractor or firm, until ho or
thev have seiuaied themsolves with tho
Building Trades' council, under pemlty
of $M, to be leeorded ,m ilnst him Also,
that no union man shall work with hltn
or recognize him until he has seiuarcd
himsilf with his local union
Reoled, That the gilevance commit
tee act as a committee to hear all com
plaint", and leport hereafter at ech
meeting.
Resolved Tint am local or branch
union nlllllated with the Rullillng Trades'
council, refusing to obey the mandates
of slid botl., as ordered hv thu com
bined delgates oi n majority theieof,
shall bo expelled until they obev slid
orders or otherwise square themsehes
Further than this the sttlke made no
progress yesterday. All sides ate still
holding fast to their oiiglual positions
and evidently intend to do so till tho
bitter end.
The breaker boys employed nt the
Johnson collloiy, on Xotth Washington
avenue, sixty in number, went out on
strike jesterday morning for higher
wages. They have made a demand for
an increase of ten cents a day and
extia pay for oveitime. They claim
that they have to wotk some days fiom
7.30 a. m. till 3.?.0 p. m. for half a dav.
The ofllclals at the mines are Inclined
to tteat the matter ns a Joke, and say
that the bo:s only w anted a holiday,
anil that they will probably be back to
work this morning.
Outside Foreman Mclaughlin stated
to a Tribune reporter that the breaker
has been closing down at 2.15 p. tn for
sumo time past, and that some of tho
lo8 wete paid sixty cents, some seventy-live
cents and a few $1 '.'5 a day.
lie said that the boyi who got fifty
cents were so small that they could not
earn any mote.
Tho boys sny they will not go Inck
until their demnnds are granted
Still another sttlke was added yes
teiday to those alreadj in ptogress,
when twelve sinkers employed In sink
ing a shaft at the West Ridge colliery
quit work, on the tcfusal of the com
pany to giant them an increase of ten
cents over tho $2 15 a day which they
have been leeching,
Tho men have been working on
eight-hour shifts, four men to a shift,
and they claim that the opening they
were making was very damp and un
healthy. The management agreed to give the
Increase asked on condition that the
men work ten bouts This, the stilkers
claim. Is unfair, as throughout the coal
regions the pay is $2 2.1 for eight hours
work. .
The strikers held a meeting yester
day motnlng and decided to stay out
until the demand Is granted.
For Better Facilities.
"One of the conveniences which many
people icsieling on the Ninth Blanch
have been longing for Is bettei rath one
facilities to enable them to get ovei to
the West Branch paiticularly to Wlll
iamsport and Uaglesmero lnke. As It
Is now, the traveler has either to go
down around by Sunbury or else go by
a most luronvunlent schedule on the
Lehigh Valley lallioad. Dnglpsniein
has sprung Into gieat favor and If the
Lehigh Valley would ndapt itself to the
situation there would be a considerable
business from Wilkcs-Barre, Scranton,
Plttston nnd other communities In this
part of the state.
"I'P near Dushote there Is n plac
cnlleel Sattei field, wheio the Lehigh
Valley connects with tho Wllllnmsport
nnd Noith Hunch rnlhoad, for Will
iamsport nnd IJaglesmere, but unfor
tunately there never has been nny great
cordlnlltv between tho two roads,
though there never was any reason for
It. But recently the Wllllnmsport and
North Branch passed Into entitely new
hands, and there Is no reason why the
Loiiign vauey should not co-operate
with them They are said to be fiom
Hughcsvllle and New Yoik city, and If
thrru wns reason for the Lehigh's cool
ness toward the old owners there Is no
reobon for continuing that state of af
fnlts. Tho public seem to want to use
tho two roads to get to Englesmere nnd
the mnnngements ought to get together
and aeo If tho public wunt enn be gratl
lled. As it Is now, the two loads hnvo
no connecting trains nt Sntterfleld,
which is n sorry state of nfulrs.
"Tho Lehigh Vnlley should put on a
train from Wllkes-Bnrro to Satterlleh,
leaving Wilkes-Bano about 11 o'clock
In the morning and nrrlvng nt Sntter
fleld about 2 p m , so thnt pnssengets
can connect with tho Willlamsport nnd
Noith Brandt train lenvlng thero nt
L'.SO, nnd thus get to Daglesmero In time
for supper. This train could bo utn on
to Townndn, and would enable Wlll
lnmsport nnd Knglcsmero people to
make connections nt Townndn with the
fast Buffnlo express, which leaves To
wnndn nt 3.41 and m rives in Buffnlo nt
0.35. This would make a splonded con
nection from Wllkes-Barre and Scran
ton nnd all points on tho Lehigh Vnl
ley to Huglesmerc, iind would also en
able the Wllllnmsport nnd North
Branch to make a good connection with

"Piesldent 13. Harvey Welsh, of the
Wllllnmsport and Not th Branch, ought
to call up General Passenger Agent
Lee, of the Lehigh Valley, for doubt
less they could fix the thing up In a
few minutes and thus btlng valuable
patronage to both loads nnd greatly nc
commotlate tho traveling public."
Wllkes-Bat ro Record.
Their Request Granted.
The employes at tho Scranton Axle
works have been granted the request
made foi a Saturday half holiday dur
ing the heated season Superintendent
Peter McCoy, of tho works, was heart
ily In accoid with the Idea and used
his every effort to grant his men'j
wishes In the matter.
BATTLE AT A CROSSING.
Representatives of the Erie and D.,
L. & W. at War at Peckville.
The Utie Railroad company and the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
company after a period of many years
of Inaction In regard to the Steirlck
Creek colliery ctosslng at Peckville,
tiro again up In aims and battle flags
have been unfurled to the breeze. It
will be remembeted that some ten
ears ago the Delawate, Lackawanna
and Western company tried to gnln
a crossing for their road over the Kile
load near the Sterriek Creek colliery,
the object being to secure the Sterriek
Cteek toal, of which the Slmnson &
M'atklns' company were then owners.
Later they sold out nnd a shoit time
ago again purchased the colliery.
Katly yesterday morning a train load
of Kile ofllclals were on the scene and
throe large IJrle coal cars were raised
fiom the tracks by means of a clertick
and the cars deposited along Mde the
track where the cross-over was to be
put In The cars effectually blocked
all efforts to place the cross-over. It
is claimed by the Sterriek Creek offi
cials that a cross-over for a culm
track Is what they are after, while
it Is claimed by the Krle company that
it is only a blind, that after the cioss
over would be put in the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western would then
gain their point. Watchmen guarded
tho place last evening.
