HITCH ON THE P. 0. APPROPRIATION BILL. The conferees upon the post office appropria- tion bill met this morning, and were unable to ree upon any of the points at issue. It was therefore decided to report the disagreement, RIVERS AND HARBORS. It is sald that the Senate committee on com- merce in its preliminary study of the river and harbor bill find littie in the measure, asit came from the House, to suit them. Some members of the committee aro said to favor an entire Temodeling of the measure if tie latter part Is not more consistent with their views than that already examined retaining the number and enacting clause but reporting substantially a new bill, NEW WHARF AT FORTRESS MONROE.

It reserves no exclusive rights to either party, but studiously preserves te right of either to act with perfect Independence. On the whole, the report says, the release of reve- nue would probably be in favor of Mexico. ‘The report further says that under the provisions of the treaty our sugar industry would be de- stroyed ina few years and our tobacco industry would be likely to meet a similar fate.

Plasterers’ assembly adopted a resolution set- ting forth that the members “are nnanimous in their determination to work no longer than eight hours per day, the rule in operation since last November, and they reaffirm their pre- vious action for the restoration of their former Wages of $3.50 per day on and after May 31, and to retain the present card system.” WITHDRAWING FROM THE AMALGAMATION, Ata meeting of the Bricklayers’ Union last night that body decided to cut loose from the amalgamated trades and have nothing to do with any unions except the hod carriers’. They resolved also to accept $4 a day for eight hours Work, instead of $4.50, which they have been receiving. A member of the union stated toa STA reporter to-day that the union was strong enough to take care of itself, and did not care to sustain the burdens imposed upon it by the amaigamation. NO ANSWER FROM THE JOURNEYMEN. ‘The master mechanics met this morning at ten o'clock to receive the answer to their reso- lutions of yesterday {rom the amalgamated trades. They waited until half-past eleven, and no reply having been received, the association adjourned subject to the call of the chairman, The bosses whe have men at work are giving them ten hours’ pay for nine hours’ work, REJECTED BY THE CARPENTERS, At a special méoting of Carpenters’ Union, No.1, this morning, it was unanimously re- solved “that we reject the proposition of the bosses as a whole and stand firm inour demand for eight hours as a day's work and $3 for the sume, and that we maintain our card system. The Carpenters’ assembly was in session thi afternoon to take action on the proposition of the master mechanics, THE “ULTIMATUM” AS VIEWED BY A WORK- INGMAN. Mr. B. F, Oliphant, a bricklayer, and a mem- ber of the committee on the part of the Brick- layers’ union to bold @ conference with the master mechanics, sald to a STAR reporter to day that they expected to meet with the masters to see what terms could be agreed upon. “We had invited the executive committee of the different building trades,” said Mr. Oliphant, “to meet us yesterday at Grand Army hall at 10 o'clock. But instead of sending the commit- tee that we requested to meet us the masters held a meeting, and at that meeting adopted the ullimatum,’ which Tux Stak published. last evening, although the seal of secrecy was placed on the lips of every member of our com- mittee not to divulge any of the proceedings of the conference until the matter was placed be- tore our respective trades. ‘The so-called mas- ter buliders, instead of making some fair proposition "to lay before the building trades, offered terms which no honest American mechanic could or would accept, I for one object to signing away my rights in any agreement such as proposed by them. I turther object to these gentlemen styling themselves masters. Ithought when Abraham Lincoln put his signature to the emancipation procla- mation the name ‘Master’ was stricken from American history. As to the second section of the ‘ultimatum,’ the trades unions do not deny the right of the employer to employ whom he chooses, but at the same time the worlfngman hasan equal right to work with whom he chooses, ‘The masters also say tuat we shall not dictate to them whom they shall buy their material from. The trades unions have never attempted to interfere with them in this mat- ter, but the masters did at the beginning of th ‘lockout’ refuse to buy material irom any one who shouid sell to men building on the elgnt hoar system or to any one forming a co-opera- uveassuciation, The masters say that wher- ever any work shall be stopped by any one of des untonsor by order ot the tradesunion ittee or assembly On account of employ- ‘nt of non-union men, or the use of material have contracted for or desire to con- for, the master mechanics’ association pledge themselves to at once shut down and discontinue all work then in progress by them. Itseems to me that they are the ‘masters’ of the public tor whom they are catering as well as the humble mechanics. I would like to ask them if they put into the agreement or contract with the owners that they reserve the right to retard the buildings whenever they see fit to do so, There are pleuty of buildings lying idle now because the masters do not see ft to go on with them.” ‘Mr. Oliphant said that there are thirty-six boss ‘bricklayers, employing 335 members of the union, now workipgon the eight-hour plan.
