Philadelphia Fight Ends Carpenters and Labor League Standoff
The clash between the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and the Allied Building Trades League ends with a decision by the United Labor League to let the carpenters proceed independently. Thousands of workers had been out for nearly three weeks as unions argued over eight hour days and wage increases. In Idaho, Western Federation of Miners and Western Labor Union resolutions denounce Governor Stemenburg for Coeur d Alene unrest and call to defeat him. A New York report notes a six cent wage scale for eight hours and a general strike looming. A later note reports a $100,000 remittance to support India's relief fund.
