Members of the Boss Carpenters' ami Buijders' association associa-tion commenced war this morning on their old allies, the uuiou men of the carpenters' council. The bosses began the lockout which by tomorrow night will be, it is thought, complete. . The cause given is the alleged al-leged failure of the carpenters' council to fulfill their agreement not to work for the old masters' builders' association. associa-tion. Under a recent decision of the supreme su-preme court of the United States the big brewers of Chicago, St. Louis and Milwaukee have combined to fight the license law as applied to them and which compels them to pay a tax in the city where beer is made and wherever it is sold. They will make a test case to settle the question. |
