Tracy Dean and son, Master are at 1014 17th street Meeting of the Protective Union—Pro- ceeds of the Excursion. Everybody was in good spirits at last ‘night's meeting of the Protective Street Railway Union, the especial cause being that the treasury was swelled nearly $100 as the result of the excursion of Monday last. President Lawrence was unable, on ac- count of an important engagement, to re- main during the session, and after calling the union to order he gave way to Finan- cial Secretary M. Cavey, who, at the re- quest of the president, occupied the chair during the remainder of the proceedings. A rising vote of thanks was tendered to the executive committee, which Is com- posed of Messrs. Lawrence, Casey and Trai- nor, for their management of the Anacostia strike, and also to the excursion committee, of which Mr. Richard Rose was chairman, for their successful management of that affair. . The boyco:t of the Anacostia road was lifted. It was agreed that the union has no Gesire to make a war on the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company, and would do nothing to interfere with its oper- ations, but they wish to have the employes of the road join the union, and will use all their efforts to accomplish that result. Mr. F. Krusemeyer was authorized to procure a suitable banner to be carried by the union in the Labor day parade. An investigation was inaugurated to as- certain upon what authority one of the officers of the union has, as is alleged, made a public statement that President Phillips of the Metropolitan’ Street Railway Com- pany has recently become a warm friend of the Protective Railway Union. ——— Officials of the Seaboard Air Line are in Birmingham, Ala., seeking a western out- let for business from Atlanta by way of Birmingham. - The American schooner Carrie B.

The meeting of Carpenters’ Council,which took place last night at their hall, No. €27 Massachusetts avenue northwest, was un- usually well attended, and there was much interest in the proceedirgs. A committee Was appointed to prepare a list of the em- ploying carpenters in the city who are will- ing to employ union labor exclusively, and also those that are not. These lists will be designated as “fair” and “unfair” and will be given circulation by mesns of pamph- lets, of which oné will be sent to every arehitect, every builder who has work in progress or who contemplates having any done, and every corporation of which It may become known that it intends to give out any labor contracts for which ters will be required, and, in fact, to every one who is in any degree interested. The committee will at once proceed to visit every employing carpenter in the Dis- trict and ask him the direct question whether or not he is willing to employ union labor exclusively. If his answer shall be yes he will be requested to sign an agreement to that effect, while, if he re- fuses to do so, that part will be stated. ‘What gave rise to this action was that in the past when the members of the Car- penters’ Council or the committee repre- senting them have called to see persons Proposing to build, and have asked them to see that only union men were employed on their work, the persons in question, while expressing willingness to comply with the request, have asked how they were to know what employing carpenters are will- ing to engage union labor exclusively. It is believed that the step just taken by the anecerread Council will remedy this diffi- culty. The short-lived strike of the union statr- builders and plumbers at the Shugrue building Monday has developed a new phase and there may be considerable trou- ble there yet. A report was submitted showing that the strike was led by the stairbuilders, who, as already stated in The Star, returned to work the following morning at Mr. Shugrue’s request. Since Tuesday, however, it was stated last night, Mr. James Connors, the contractor, has not permitted any stairbuilding to be carried on, and the consequence has been that all the striking carpenters were laid off by him. It was further charged that Mr. Cornors has said that he would not em- ploy a union stairbuilder under any cir cumstances, and a committee was ap- pointed to look into the matter and ascer- tain all the facts in the case.
