TAILORSS I‘IIIIIE W.0N
The Contractors’ Association. Anxious
to Sign as a Body.
BUT SGHOENFBLD REFUSES.
Leader Insists Upon Individual Agree-
ments—An Apparently Complete Vic-
Although the “Bosses”
Dispute the Claim.
tory,
New York, June 18.—-The great strike
of the tailors is at an end, and the
strikers have won.
A committee of the Contractors’ asso-
ciation was appointed at a meeting held
at 112 Clinton street to inform the
Brotherhood of Tailors that the associa-
tion would sign the agreement of the
bretherhood in a body.
This committee met Leader Schoen-
feld and the executive board of the tai-
lors and laid the proposition before
them.
Schoenfeld and the board declined to
accept the proposition, although the
committee offered real estate as secur-
ity or $1,000 in cash.
After a short interval the committee
of the Contractors’ association decided
that it was best for the members to
sign the brotherhood agreement as in-
dividuals and, accordingly, 140 colitract-
ors, employing 2,500 men, will sign the
brotherhod agreement between now
and Monday, and give the required se-
curity.
This action ends the great strike,
which has resulted in a complete vic-
tory for Mayer Schoenfeld and the
Brotherhood of Tailors.
There are a good many contractors
who are not in the association who
have not signed the agreement and
have been holding off to see which way
the cat was going to jump.
It is very likely that these nonasso-
eiation contractors will begin a scram—
ble at once to sign the agreement and
get- work.
Clothing \Vill Be Higher.
The busy season has fairly begun,
and work has piled up so that the con-
tractors are compelled to accept the
terms of the strikers.
The wholesale manufacturers must
necessarily pay increased prices for
their work, and the cost of clothing
next year will undoubtedly be higher
than at present.
Leader Schoenfeld, his lieutenants
and the strikers generally are in great
glee over this signal victory.
A mass meeting will be held in old
Walhalla hall to celebrate the event.
L'Jueadei Schoenfeld “as able to get
about today, but is almost prostrated
with the strain of the last five weeks.
His 16-year—old daughter and Dr. C. P.
Konnreich of 151 Clinton street were
looking for Mr. Schoenfeld in the strike
district to get him to go home and rest.
Sohoenfeld’s wife is an invalid under
the doctor’s care. The daughter and
the doctor found Mr. Schoenfeld ex-
tremely busy with the executive board
of the tailors, and they could not pre-
vail upon him to go home.
Mr. Schoenfeld is very nervous, and
was reported yesterday to be on the
verge of total collapse.
He has made no less than 40 speeches
of 11/; hours’ duration each, and over
80,000 persons have heard him in the
last five weeks.
He has written 214 circulars in Eng-
lish, Hebrew and German. He has also
made 350 appointments with individual
contractors and personally distributed
$600 since the strike began to 500 starv-
ing families.
Contractors Deny It.
The report of the capitulation of the
contractors spread with furious speed
among the strikers in the territory af-
fected,and in less than 20 minutes after
the 2,500 operators now on strike were
massed in Essex street trying to ascer-
tain from the settlement committee if
their employers had committed them-
selves individually to the requirements
of the new agreement.
The cloakmakers, buttonhole workers
and knee trousers makers are'talking
strike now
When Benjamin Driesen,
and Benjamin Witkowsky, secretary
of the Clothing Contractors' associa-
tion, were seen this afternoon, they de-
nied that the association had sent a
committee to the brotherhood for the
purpose of settling the strike.
“I challenge Schoenfeld to produce
the three men who he said acted as a
committee and wanted to sign their
agreement in behalf of the, association.
That report must have originated in
the imagination of Schoenfeld."

If you have an3 of these symptoms
you are suffering f1 om cataarh in some
form. California Cataa1 h Cui e will in-
stantl3 relieve and speedily cure you.
Mr. H. L. Woodworth, of 1 Burbank
street, South Norwalk, says: “ I have
been troubled with cataarh for some
time; my head and nose seemed pretty
well stuifed up, and the quantities of
matter that run into my throat at night
would cause me to hawk, spit, and often
gag in the morning, before I could clear
my throat. I got some California Ca-
taarh Cure at Plaisted’s drug store, and
already these symptoms are very much
better. My throat is finely free from
all matter in the morning, and my
whole head feels much clearer.”
California Cataarh Cure is for you,
too. In case of colds it is invaluable,
as it helps in breaking them up, and
entirely prevents a cold “hanging on, ”
as well as attacks of acute cataarh
which so often follow a severe cold in
the head.
California Cataarh Cure is sold by all
dealers for 50 cents; three times as
much for $1.
