INITIATION FEE DROPPED Scores of building jobs In this city, many of them being erected under union clause contracts, were tied up yesterday morning. when the 400 members of the Hod Carriers and Building Laborers' local union No.

129, and more than 100 non union noa carriers went on strike as ordered by the strike vote taken in the union Wednesday night. A continuation of the strike, it is feared, will result In complications that will involve organized labor in all the building trades. No efforts had been made yesterday to induce anv other crafts to strike in sympathy with the hod carters, but in the event of the contractors placing non union men to work on union clause jobs, friction is looked for. The hod carriers are demanding an hourly wage of thirty five cents for carrying the hod. and a wage of twenty five cents minimum for excavation work and other labor about buildings.

Thev want also an eight hour day and a recognition of their union. At present the men are receiving wages of from fifteen to twenty five cents an hour. Headquarters for the strike have been opened in the Ricca building on Pnruce street with Fred Cernuto, presi dent of the local, and Business Agent Thomas Buscemi In charge of the situation for the men. One of the first orders Issued yesterday morning was that all non union hod carriers and building laborers who quit work In sympathy with the union will be received into the local without being compelled to pay the regular initiation fee of, $5. More than 100 men who had not been affiliated with the local, took advantage of that offer it was reported bv the union officials.

Within a few days D. D'Allessandro, general president of the international union, will come to this city from Albany to aid the men in their fight for their demands. The tie up yesterday morning was complete, and the big building jobs were delayed when the hod carriers failed to renort for work, and when their pickets called the non union men off the jobs. Contractors on some of thA smaller jobs offered to sign the union demands, but the union refused to make anv contracts that will not be general throughout the city. Other contractors, rather than see their work tied up.

shouldered the hods and kept their masons busy. The hod carriers declare that the contractors have refused to give them a fair hearing on their demands, and that several weeks ago, when a fleeting was arranged after months of effort, the committee of union men was treated like children by the contractors' committee. The strike was to have been May 1. but the offi cials of the Central Labor union counseled delay until every effort for peace might be made. Among the bigger buflding jobs that were affected by the strike yesterday were: The Church of the Nativity, the West Side bank, the Leader laundry and the Suburban Electric Light plant.

BURKE Investment Bankers, Traders National Bank Bldg, Scranton. Pa. UPWARD MOVEMENT CONTINUES DAILY Dealings Uncommonly Large and Diversified Although Industrials Lead. COPPER SOARS ONCE MORE XEW TORK. June 6.

The upward movement in stocks was continued today, making the third consecutive session of prices. Dealings in the early part of the session were uncommonly large and diversified, although much of the activity was in the industrial division, to the comparative neglect of the railway Issues. Another advance in the price of copper here and abroad served to stimulate the metal stocks. Amalgamated rising to eighty eight, its highest price in over two years, with a general hardening of allied shares. United States Steel was pushed forward on extensive operations to its best price in over a fortnight, end American Smelting was seemingly in good demand.

The early advance ran to a point or better in Reading. Lehigh alley, Louisville and Nashville, Erie second preferred and Denver and Rio Grande preferred among the transportation stocks, while a score of industrials with a smattering of utilities gained ffom one to four points. Norfolk and Western, which is under Pennsylvania control, became moderately active at a substantial advance, presumably in response to its excellent April earnings. In the final hour much of the early animation was resumed, with higher prices all around, the leaders being such old time favorites as Union Pacific and Steel. Total sales, 600.500 shares.

Bonds as a whole were firm except for weakness in Denver and Rio Grande rours. hlno copper sixes rose eight points. Total sales, par value. J2.713.000. United States fours, registered, were one quarter per cent, higher on call.

They are ignoring political conditions. Perhaps the move in the market is designed to educate the public to Impress upon It the notion that there is nothing In poll tics to ne atrairl of. This may work for a time, but we do notbelleve that It will long me effective. From present Indications Roosevelt will be de feated at Chicago and Taft's nomina tion seems more certain. But some good judges assume that Roosevelt will bolt, they think this means the Republican party is in peril, should this be the course of events.

There are many uncertainties in the political situation. Investors are not likely to buy except when they see bargains. We recognize the strength of crop and business outlook. This may be utilized to carry stocks somewhat higher. (By Brooks Co.) NEW YORK.

June 6. A lessening of the demand was evident in the afternoon, when nearly all the stocks in which there had been active speculation early in the day soW off under moderate supply. Fresh buying was Induced on the recession, however, and In final dealings some fractional upturns occurred with the rally most pronounced in the Copper stocks. Missouri Pacific was very heavy, but the other rails were fairly well maintained with most of them retaining some gain at the close. Total sales, shares.
