After the proposals for the | ending of the lockout had been sent to the Building Trades Council yesterday, which stipulated that the league should employ only union holsting engineers | pending a settlement of the scale, it was discovered that with one exception not a contractor in the city was employing un- fon engineers as such, nor had they recog- | nized the Hoisting Engineers’ Union. No attention had been paid to the other con- tractors by the workmen, -but they sin- gled out A. & 8. Wilson as the firm to at- tack and compel the signing of the union scale before any one else. The discrimination against Wilson & Co. was not relished by the league mem- bers, and when a reply to the proposition made by the league for a settlement was received at the Builders' Exchange, de- manding that the proposed settlement must be made at once and not within ten days, as specified, the league decided to withdraw the whole plan and stand on the original ground, which demands that the workmen of all trades return to work on the Wilson contracts on exactly the me conditions as existed before the strike began, and that the question of em- ploying union workmen, as well as wage #cales, would be taken up and arbitrated is still on. — ASKS FOR UMPIRE.

POTTSVILLE, Pa., Aug. 6.—The concil- iation board appointed to adjust the dif- ferences betwcen the anthracite miners and the operators to-day failed to agrec on any grievances and made an appeal to the Judges of the Third Judicial Circuit of the United States Court for the ap- pointment of a seventh man, or umpire. The guestions in dispute will be referred to this umpire, whose decision will be final and bindisg on both parties.

ELIZABETHPORT, N. I, Aug. 6.—Five vessels now being built at the Crescent shipyards have been seized by the Sheriff on a writ of seizure granted by the Su- preme Court Commissioner on the appli- cation of Frederick L. Heldlitter & Co., timber and lumber merchants of Eliza- beth. The seizure is made for lumber and other materials furnished by the firm and used ‘in the construction of vessels.

Bryan of New York, and the side-wheel steamboat Happy Day, building for Charles M. Schwab. STOCK MARKET SHOWING GAING Average of Net Ad- vances Is Abocut 2 Points. NEW YORK, Aug. 6.—Following a weak, almost panicky, opening, to-day's stock market suddenly reversed its course, substantial gains beinys registered by practically all the better class securi- ties. The average of net advances was about 2 points. In some instances galns were much greater. New York Central led the active list with a net gain of 3%. The change of front which occurred in the early trading was doubtless duc to several reasons, the most potent of which was the “good” buying which seemed to emanate from high quarters. There is little room for doubt that stocks were purchased freely to-day by Insiders—by banks, banking houses, financlal institu- tions generally and wealthy individuals because they med chezp. No justitica- tign.could be found for the report rather industriously circulated that the Vander- bilts, Rockefellers and Harrimans, with their host of followers, had eatered upon a plan to lift prices. As a matter of fuct, no little part of to-day's improvement ‘was undoubtedly due to extensive co;:?r- ing. Many on the short sid: regarded the market as being very much oversold, Despite the marked improvement, further talk of trouble and probable fallures was heard on every side almost to the close, which was really buoyant. Reports current iIn trustworthy circles suggest that several firms and individ- uals whose affairs were found to be in have been made had their holdings been thrown upo; cet. The day's business was slightly less than one million shares. Stocks that made the most extensive net gains included Sugar, American Tobacco preferred, St Paul, Colorado Fuel and Iron. Delaware and Hudson, Denver 'and Rio Grande, General Electric, Hocking Valley pre- ferred, lilinols Central, International Power, Loufsville and Nashville ‘and Metropolitan Securities, New York, Chi- cago and St. Louis second preferred, North American, Rubber Goods preferred, Southern Pacifie, Virginia-Carolina Chem- ical common and preferrcd, Wabash pre- ferred, Westinsnouse Electric, Whecling and Lake Erie second preferred and St Louis and San Francisco and Eastern Illinois certificates, the latter advancing 10 points. Marked improvement was shown also In the bond list. ———— WOMAN FORGER ADMITS RAISING POSTAL ORDERS Mrs. Annie E. Shapley Confesses to Extensive Operations Defraud- ing Eastern Offices.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6—The Lowe | spectal over the Santa Fe Raliroad, which left Chicago at 10:15 yesterday morning for this city, is breaking all transconti- nental records. The schedule, as ar- | ranged, called for a run between Chicago | and Los Angeles, a distance of 226 miles, | in sixty-one hours. Up to 5:45 this even- | ing, at which heur the special reached | Albuquerque, three hours and fifteen min- | utes had been gained. If the same ratio | of gain is maintained for the remainder of the journey the special should reach Los Angeles in about fifty-six hours. It {1s due here at 11:15 Friday night, but prob- | ably will come in abous8 o’clock. The record for the run between Los An- geles and Chicago, eastbound, is held by the Peacock special, which, in March, | 190, made the distance in fifty-seven hours and fifty-six minutes. It is a coin- | cldence that the Peacock speclal was also chartered by an official of the United | States Steel Corporation. and it was for the purpose of enabling Peacock to attend the mecting of the directors of -the big steel corporation at the time of the con- solidation that the record-breaking run was made. Lowe has been advised of his daughter's hdeath since he started on his journey from the East, but will continue his ree- ord-breaking run, for which all arrange- ents had been made before -the mews as communicated to hiz. .
