Carpenter dispute and market notes in one evening
A local meeting of the stone masons last night voted that no member should work for contractor Jahlene and Simmerack, with fines of 20 to 60 dollars. Simmerack claimed neither he nor Dahlene belonged to the union, and the action aimed to pressure their contractors. Indications this afternoon suggested differences between workers and employers would be settled, with carpenters possibly accepting contractor offers. Other items include a yacht note from the sultan of Turkey, youth work on evenings, a sale for a driver, a lost horse, and details of upcoming events such as the Haskell Indian band in Kansas City and a Young People’s Christian Association meeting. Fort Leavenworth excursion planned for May 23 with a 100 dollar round trip.
