TO GO TO WORK AT 7:30 A.M. ANDQUIT AT 4 P.M. —WHATTHE WORKINGMEN SAY—THE MASTER BUILDERS’ AND BOSSES’ SIDE OF TRE QUES TION. Next Monday, the 3d of May,is the day named in the resolutions adopted by the vari- ous building trades’ organizations for putting the eight-hour rule in force, The men ask eight hours and no reduction of wages, Such resolu- tions have been adopted by the bricklayers’ union, the carpenters’ union, the carpenters’ assembly, K. of L., the journeymen stonecut- ters’ assembly, the granite-cutters’ union, the marble-workers’ unton, the painters’ assembly, the plumbers’ assembly, the brickmakers’ as sembly, the hodcarriers’ assembly, the galvan- ized tron and cornice-makers’ union, and all the trades organizations directly interested in building operations, The plasterers’ and tin- ners’ asfembly are already working under tho eight-hour rule, which they put in force last December. Thé stonecutters are working under @ nine-hour rule. Other trades are working now under the ten-bour ruit To QUIT AT FOUR O'CLOCK. Asageneral rule now, the craftsmen of differ- ent trades begin work at 7 in the morning. The schedule adopted by the representatives of the trades unions and assemblies, to go into effect Monday, provides that in all cases, except that of the bricklayers and granite cutters, men shall go to work at 7:30 a.m, knock off at 12 m., resume Work at 12:30 p.m., and quit for the day at4p.m. The only difference in the case of the bricklayers and the granite cutters will be that the men will begin work at 7 o'clock, halt an hour earlier than the others, and take an hour instead of halt an hour for rest noon, All trades will quit work at4 o'clock, and the rules adopted prevent any man from working between 4 and 6, For work done atter 6 o'clock employers will have to pay extra rates. In order to enforce these regulations the varlous organizations @ adopted the card and walking delegate system, and no member of any organization will work on any building on witich men who have not “working cards” are employed. An officer of the district assembly of the Kmghts of Labor told a STAR reporter last eve- ning that this movement directly atfected be- tween 12,000 and 13,000 workingmen, WHAT THE WORKINGMEN SAY. “What we propose to doon Monday,” said a representative of the workingmen’s organiza- tions to aSTar reporter to-day, “is to goto work as usual, We will work eight hours, If the bosses do not choose to employ us for eight hours aday we will pick up our tools and leave. We do not propose to strike. ‘This is not a strike. The workman will discharge himseif and leave rather than work ten hours. He will then be an unemployed workman and not a striker. He will be ‘locked out’ by theemployers. We wilt not prevent other men from working. ‘There will be no disorder and no violence. We feel confident of the success of the movement, We will present a solid, unyielding front next Monday. MEETINGS LAST NIGHT. Ata meeting of the Painters’ assembly last night the members reaffirmed their determiua- ton to stand out for eight hours Monday. Ata meeting of the Master, Plumbers’ association resolutions were adopted declaring the purpose of the association to resist the demand for eight hours. “The association offered to compromise at nine hours, but the journeymen refused, CONTRACTORS WHO WILL GRANT EIGHT HOURS> Mr. Henry Howlett, the contractor for the carpenters’ work on the Baltimore Sun building on F street, bas notified his men that they will not be required to work more thaa eigut hourson aud after Monday. The contractors engaged on Mr. B. H. War- der's new house on K street have acquiesced in the demand for eight hours, Yesterday Mr. John Miller, a prominent bricklayer, displayed a card fromthe row of houses he has in course of erection in the northwest section, stating that he was in favor of the eight-hour movement, THE POSITION OF THE MASTER BUILDERS, “The situation remains unchanged” said Cole Robert I. Fleming, the president of the Master Builders’ Association, and of the confer- ence of the boss workmen, to a STAR reporter. “The position taken by the bosses some weeks ago in opposition to the eight-hour movement has not been modified, and if on Monday the men refuse to work ten hours, as we have been informed through the newspapers and anon: mous sourees that they would, then they can- not work In our shops, In this determination all the master builders and bosses, with but few exceptions, are united and_I believe that they willull stand together. There area few instances where builders aud bosses have refused to join us and I suppose that they will grant the eight- hour day. But these are not men who are do- ing the building of the city. We have every trade with us with the exception of the plaster- ers, whose Journeymen received the eight hours last fail with reduced pay, and have refused ever since to work longér hours. On the 1st of July these plasterers have given notice that they will demand a restoration of the iormer rates of wages.” “The bosses are not expecting to close thelr shops on Monday,” continued Mr. Flemin; “We will remain open for business and give eus- ployment to all competent workmen who may apply and be willing to work ten hoars for ten hours pay. We are not apprehensive that we cannot get men, as there are plenty who want work, notonly in thiscity but in others. Neither is it probable that work now going on will be stopped. This work is under contract and must becompleted, and the loss will, of course, fail on the contractor, Monday will not make as great_a change as one might think. There will considerable work in progress throughout, the city, and we all intend tokeep right on with What men we can get to take the places of those whogoout, In my opinion, the injury to the building prospects for this season has already been done, A great many people haye been prevented from building on account of the in- creased cost, for, of course, the additional ex- pense comes on the owner.” WHAT A CONTRACTOR BAYS. One of the contractors, who does a large busi- ness, in talking with a Stan reporter, expressed himself in the same way as Mr. Fleming. He feltconfident that the resistance to the eight hour movement would be maintained. He in- tended to keep his shops open and employ all amen who applied, and was willing to work ten hours for ten hours pay. He thought that he would have no difficulty in getting workmen, as he knew that there were plenty of men who wanted work, It was their intention to employ He was not in favor of granting the reduc- tion, beeause he thought, in the tirst place, that People who had money t invest would Ve un- willing to pay the advance; and in the second place, that workmen were’ being paid better wages here than in any other city in the country. on ae The Belt Divorce Case Perjary.
