CONFIDENLSTRIKERS.
They Declare Now That They Will
Win In Mighty Short Order.
CHANGES OF ARBITRATION.
Employers Declare They Will Not Treat
With the Housesmiths’ Union—Kee-
nan Charged With Hiring Men
Under False Pretenses.
NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—-The strike cf the
housesmiths was renewed today, with both
sides as determined‘hs ever to fight to the
bitter end. The strikers’ spirits have
been encouraged by the apparent failure
of Milliken Bros. to make any progress
on the big Siegel-Cooper structure at
Eighteenth street and Sixth avenue.
Their leaders have said repeatedly that
the two firms would be unable to get
enough competent workmen to carry on
their important jobs. The several acci-
dents at the building seem to bear out.
their statements. '
Even a casual observer will see that the
new men employed by Milliken Bros.
are inexperienced at the difficult work
which they undertake.
President Lary of the Housesmiths and
Bridgemen’s union made a tour of the af-
fected buildings today. .
“I think,” he said later, “that the week
will end our fight. From the reports of
my pickets success seems assured. We
are bringing men rapidly from the jobs
into the union. Our pickets meet the
nonunion men before they can go to work
and bring them to our headquarters. Why,
do you know, so far today we have broug t
25 men into the uniOn who were going to
work on the jobs at Eighteenth street and
Sixth avenue and Broadway and Prince
street.
“There is no doubt in my mind that
Mr. Milliken sees what a. big mistake he
made when he let Mr. Cornell induce him
to join the Iron league. Had he not yield-
ed to Mr. Cornell the strike would be over
now, so far as he is concerned.
“Mr. Cornell is getting better men than
Mr. Milliken, and altogether the latter
has the little end of the bargain. .
“How do I expect the strike to be set
tied? Why, by arbitration, for there is
more chance now than before that the
strike will be settled in that way.”
Little Chance of Arbitration.
The chances for arbitration do not seem
as rosy as Lary would paint them, so far
as the other side is concerned, as Mr. Cor-
nell has strenuously maintained through-
out the fight that he would not treat with
the men as a union.
There were about 50 men at work on
the steel frame of the Siegel-Cooper build-
ing today.
Policemen Were still guarding the place
and kept the pickets and delegates of the
. union from entering the building.
J. B. & J. M. Cornell have a force of 45
iron workers busy at Broadway and
Prince street. They are makingsome ad—
vance with the work at that building.
There was quite a crowd of striking
iron workers in the Harlem police Court
to watch the proceedings in the case of
James Keenan, contractor and agent for
Milliken Bros, who was arrested for
disorderly conduct at Ninety-seventh
street and Columbus avenue, and who is
charged by the strikers with attempting
to deceive other men into taking their
places. '
Policeman Morrison testified that he
saw Keenan in the center of an angry
crowd in front of Edward Smith’s saloon
on the corner of Columbus avenue and
Ninety-seventh street and asked him what
he was doing there. In reply Keenan
said:
“It is none of your business. You
mind your business, and I will mind
mine.”
The policeman said that the men sur-
rounding Keenan were very angry and
were threatening to do him bodily injury.
At the police station James McCully,
an iron worker, stated to the sergeant in
command that Keenan had inserted an
advertisement in the _morning papers of-
fering work todock builders and laborers
and directing them to apply at Smith’s
place. _ '
When the men want there, he met them
and gave them cards to go to Milliken
Bros.’ iron building, Eighteenth street
and Sixth avenue, where they could get
employment. McCully and other iron
workers alleged that Keenan had been
guilty Of fraud. .
' Agent Keenan Fined. ’
Keenan acknowledged that he was act-
ing as an agent for Milliken Bros, and
that he had inserted the advertisement in
the newspapers. He said that he had a
perfect right to do so. ,
Morrison stated further to Magistrate
Braun that he had arrested Keenan as
much to save him from harm at the hands
of the mob as on account of his refusal to
move away when ordered.
. McGully testified to the same effect as
the Officer and charged that Keenan had
been guilty of fraud.
Magistrate Braun would not entertain
McGully’s charge. He said that Keenan
had been guilty of disorderly conduct and
fined him $5, which was paid.
The strikers fOIIOWed Keenan out of
court. They Were in an angry, turbulent
mood, but did not make any demonstra-
tion against him. Some of them said that
they Would lay the matter before the dis-
trict attorney and ask him to take action
against Keenan. '
Babel and the Socialists’ Funds.
ZURICH, Nov. Emu—Herr Bebe], the So-
cialist leader in the German reichstag, to-

Germany was a measure of assurance of
its safety.

A PERIOD or INACTION
The Shrinkage of Prices Is Due Solcly
to Natural Causes.
RETAILSTOOKS ARE HEAVY.
Cotton and Wheat Are Being Held Back
For Higher Prices—Railroad Earn-
ings Show a. Gain—Hides and
Leather—The \Veek’s Failures.
NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—R. G. Dun &
Co.’s weekly review of trade says:
_ Business has not improved, though
there is very little change except in the
shrinkage of prices which a period of in-
action naturally causes. After the ex-
traordinary buying of the summer and
early fall a marked decrease was inevita-
ble, and it is yet too early in most
branches of business to judge how far the
future was anticipated in purchases. Re-
tail stoeks are still reported full in nearly
all branches, with delayed distribution in
many on account of unfavorable Weather.
The movmsnt of crops is only fair, both
cotton and wheat being largely kept back
in the hope of higher prices, and there is
a prevalent feeling that foreign imports
will fall ofif. Exports show‘a little gain,
for the week '12 per cent, and for the
month about 13 per cent.
Railroads reporting for November show
a gain Of 8.4 per cent in earnings com-
pared with last year, and a loss of 0.1 per
cent compared with 1892, which is re-
markable even though the movement in
that month of 1892 was unusually small.
The latest Week shOWS less gain than either
Of the previous weeks in November, but
the tonnage shipped from Chicago east-
ward is about 45,000, or 25 per cent more
than in 1892.
There is not much change in commer-
cial loans, although a little more demand
~from some manufacturing centers is re-
ported. On the whole, the demand is
nothing like what it would be if general
business were in a normal condition. A
few cotton bills appear, but the outgo for
some months was anticipated in bankers’
transactions and apparently‘a larger out-
go of wheat than has actually occurred.
The speculative markets have not helped,
for While wheat is a shade lower, with
corn unchanged, cotton is a shade higher,
and held with much stiffness in spite of
all evidence of the abundant supplies
abroad and the sagging trade of European
spinners.
Hides and Leather.
Another sharp fall in hides at Chicago,
taking the average of prices down to 97.8
against 151.5 July 1, has not been fol-
lowed by leather, which has declined only
for grain, not proportionately by boots
and shoes, though men’s grain shoes are
2% cents lower and women’s 2 cents. The
woolen business makes scarcely any gain,
although clay worsteds are largely sold at
the advanced prices recently made and
some dress goods and overcoatings at
prices partly higher and partly lower.
The iron market is decidedly Weaker
again, and While bessemer pig has de-
clined to $12.85 at Pittsburg and grey
forge to 812.25, and plates‘ to ”$1.60 at
Philadelphia, so that the averagc'of all
quotations is about half of 1 per cent low-
er than last week, the markets are really
much weaker than the quotations, as con-
cessions are generally given by manufac-a
turers in order to secure business.- A
sharp decline is noted in barbed wire, at-
tributed to the failure to complete an
expected combination. The Bar associa-
tion and the two nail associations refuse
to reduce prices of their products, al-
though the dem‘and has been surprisingly
reduced since the great advance two or
three months ago, and there were rumors
in the market that one of the big combi- ‘
nations had gone to pieces because of un-
derselling by members. ‘
The western receipts of wheat continue
larger than last year, for the week 4,505,-
201 bushels against 3, 565,404 a year ago,
and for four weeks of November 29,902,~
512 bushels against 15,880,078 last year.
As bcfére, Atlantic exports are relatively
small, and for four weeks have been only
8,267,106 bushels, flour included, against
6,742,496 last year. It is evident that
with such movements higher prices can
hardly be expected, nor can the exchange
situation be favorably affected. The vol-
ume of domestic business indicated by ex-
changes through clearing houses is decid-
edly larger than last year, but 15. 2 per cent
less than in 1892. During the past week
failures have been 279 in the United States
against 289. last year and 47 in Canada
against 36 last year.
