Meetings of the Building Trades Council and Federation of Labor. The weekly meeting last evening of the Building Trades Council was well attended, delegates from ten organizations being Presert. President William Silver occupied the chair, and Mr. J. M. Boyce was secre- tary. The joint committee, which was appointed to see Captain Randall in the interest of union painters, reported that their request had been grented, and submitted a resolu- tion, which was unanimously adopted, that “Capt. E. 8. Randall having recognized the just claims of the Brotherhood of Painters for employment, and having accorded them the trade privileges which they deserve, the Building Trades Council therefore regard Capt. E. 8. Randall as friendiy disposed toward union labor, and recommend him to the patronage of our friends.” A communication was read from Mr. J. Hart Brittain, manager of the Columbia Bicycle Company, which ts erecting a plant at 14th and H streeis northwest, relative to the employment of union labor on the work as requested by the Building Trades Coun- cil, stating that “we have nothing to do with the employment of labor in the con- struction of the building. The contract was given to a very reliable firm, Messrs. Emmert & Heisley, and they have exclu- sive charge of the labor employed thereon.” The matter was referred for further con- sideration to the Carpenters’ Union. It was reported that non-union carpenters are employed in the erection of a stable on the property of the Consumers’ Brewing Company, and a special committee was ap- pointed to investigate the matter, and if they find the report to be true to bring the subject before the board of directors at the earliest practicable moment. Much other business of an important na- ture was attended to, but as they are not ket in such shape as to divulge to the pub- , they will not be given out until after a future meeting of the council. The lecal Federation of Labor at its meet- ing last evening and with representatives of eighteen organizations present, decided to recommend to the joint committee on the part of the federation and District assem- bly on the Rea monument that the name of Mrs. Rea be also placed on the monument now being erected to the memory of E. J. Rea by the Knights of Labor of the Dis- trict. The committee will meet Sunday next to consider the matter. ———— Selling Strawberries. A severe blow at the strawberry industry in this city was struck today by Judge Kimball in the Police Court when he sen- tenced Wesley Carter, David Venesiani, John Thurston, Thomas Rice, Roman Pow- ell, Joseph Johnson and Richard West to the workhouse for six days each for violat- ing the police regulations. The specific charge, against the defendants was that yesterday they “did then and there cry certain wares for the purpose of attract- ing attention to their business of selling strawberries.” This is the first instance, of late, that prosecutions have been brought against street venders, and Attorney Moss made an earnest plea in behalf of his clients. “Your honor,” he said, “these boys are try- ing to make an honest living. They have certainly committed no offense. If you send them to the workhouse they will be stamped as criminals. When released they will have no occupation, and then your honor will send them back to the work- house as vagrants for not selling straw- berries.” The appeal had no effect, for the sentence stated was’ imposed. —__>__ Gathering of Crap Shooters. ‘There ‘was a -grand convention Sunday And Not Drugs.
