The building trades strike is still in force at Fargo. The grain threshers of Richardson county, Neb., have organized. New Bedford, Mass., weavers are on a strike, due to a question of wages. Yonkers, N. Y., hatters are on a strike for a 30 per cent advance in wages. All employes in the Northern Pacific shops at Tacoma have had a raise of five per cent. Union tip -cart drivers at Boston have struck, having failed to obtain an in- crease in wages. Kansas mine workers have prepared a new schedule, due to dissatisfactiv over last year's contract. The lumbermen of Chatanooga have organized an association as a fraternal and protective union. Meehinista . Of the International and Great Northern have struck at Palestine, Taylor and San Antonio, Texas. Rectum of their inability to procure recognition of the union, needle makers of Franklin. N. H., are on a strike. Los Angeles has been chosen as the next place for the convention of the Bro- therhood of Locomotive Engineers. Telegraphers of the Western Union at New York city are organising under The direction of the Federation of Labor. Stillwater, Minn., millmen have made a proposition to the strikers to let the men return to work on a ten-hour day at ten hours' pay. Mining investments at Parral, Mexico, have caused numerous beitriii,g opera- tion,, and it is hardly possible to get •carpenters and bricklayers. All printers in the job offices in Old- •cago have secured a raise in wagetiof 41.50 a week. Over 1800 men are affect- ed. The men 'ere well backed. Nothing is being done at Berlin, in the iron branch, in building and mining, and the number of unemployed men exceed that of last year by 273i per cent. Over 6000 servant girls are on the po- lice lists of the out -of -work, and unem- ployed girls from the provinces pour in- to Berlin at the rate of 500 a week. The strike of the blast furnace work- .ers in the Shenango and Mahoning val- leys has been settled by the payment of an advance of ten per cent in wages. Union plumbers, steam fitter, and gas ,fitters of Bangor, Me., have quit work, the employers having refused unani- mously to agree to a demand for IS a day. Almost all of the workmen employed at Providence, It. I., in constructing buildings or who are in any way affiliat- ed with the Buildings Trade council, about 3000 in number, are now working •on the eight -hour basis. Because of the refusal of the brewers -of Cincinnatiao give employment to all .f the 375 old men wbo are still out from the February strike, the United Bre% ery workers have decided to renew the strike through efforts of the boycotte. President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, has canceled the •charter of the Kingston, Ontario, Iron Workers union because the men would not support the machinists, now on strike there. Such a step %%as never be- fore necessary inthe history of union. .ism in Canada l . Frank Hawley, Of Duffido,,grand mas- ter of the Switchmen's union of North A merica, advocates the form n tion ot a national labor federation, composed of all the labor organizations of the United 'States. He is of the opinion that if such H11 organization were formed it could if the necessity arose, call for a general -strike, which would stop the sloe'''. of commerce and eventually force em- ployes to concede the demands of their employes. The labor troubles in Manila, which have been brewing for a month, are now on the eve of coming to a head. Three oh the largest American employers of Filipino labor %ere notified that they must advance salaries 50 per cent all around or face a strike. One firm three years ago paid employee $3 a week and is now paying them $30 weekly. The firm says a further advance is impossible. The merchants are alarmed at the out- look. They say Filippitio labor costs more now, in proportion to the results, than American labor. The wages now are five to ten times higher than under the Spanish regime.
