COST OF TIIE BIS mm niMn vii UUILUIIW I Aggregate Losses of Trouble Estimated at $67,839,000. ri-: rMuiuu nut- ocvciuccn uuiun Will Have Accepted Pcac Plan- Before Wednesday, Assurances were received yesterday oy lh Board of Governor of the Building Trade Eniployers Association that the unions In aeven more skilled trades.

If not more, will have accepted It arbitration agreement before "Wed nesday. The Electrical Workers' Union sent a notification tinder ita aeal that it had accepted the plan. Up to Friday night nine unions in the skilled trades had accepted the plan. These, with the Electrical Workers Union and the seven morn unions to be heard from before Wednesday will make seventeen unions of skilled trades to accept the j.lan. There are twenty-eight unions of skilled trades in all represented In the Hoard of Building Trades, The eleven doubtful ones, which have either egalnst the plan or are undecided, are expected to accept the plan before Monday week.

The Housesmilhs and Bridgemen's Union has voted once against the plan, but as- surances have been received by the em- jicjcib wiei ins quid cirmcui ill mo umvu will go to work under the plan in a short time and that the union will not make any serious objection. William K. Fertig, Secretary of the Building Trade Employers' said last The Board of Governors will meet on Monday, and- expects that in a week work wUl be generally In progress on buildings Si If there had been no strikes and no shut-down. It has been a hard fight for both sides, and I am sure it will be long t-etoro such a state of affairs exists In the tuiidlng trades again as that which preceded the shut-down." The fight between the Employers' Asso ciation ana the unions, which was really a light against the walking delegates, as their functions were understood at tho time toe fight began, started May 13 with a general shut down of building work. Coincident with this abut down was the issuing of the much talked-of plan of arbitration of the Building Trades Employ Before the Employers' Association acted the Bulldlne Material and Lumber Dealers' Association had ordered Jahut down against recognition of the lulldtng Material drivers' and Handlers' 'nlons, which was ended by an agreement made with sixteen Of the skilled unions tn th Board of Building Trades, the conditions beina that tbe unskilled unions would tiot tMi recognised.

Thn Employers' however. Started by refusing to hav anything to do with the walking delegates as arbitrators. This made their fight longer, as the walking delegates considered this an attempt to do away with them altogether, and fought tcoth and nail against the plan of arbitration. Their flgbt slackened when it was rtated emphatically by the employers that they were not fighting the walking delegates as an institution. The struggle which is ending has been the most costly of its kind In the history of labor in this country, fqr the time it has occupied, when it is considered that only two boroughs of this city, Manhattan and the Bronx, were directly affected by it.

Conservative estimates yesterday placed the cost of the fifty-one days the shutdown has lasted up to date as follows: a-es lost by emptoree 73,000 skilled enOT.QuQ unskilled men flT.839.0O0 Loe. In interest, prospective profit, office expenses, Ac, to 90,000,000 Loss to worklnanien In other trades through lack of production, owlna to i falling off In circulation of money, principally among wags 20,000.000 Tl S67.839.000 grocers, tec, in industrial districts, and to lanrllrtrH 1 i much 1110 euui- down has been followed by a number of aispoRaeiM, cases, the list Increasing weekly.

Mulvane went to Washington to press the claims of Charles Blood Smith as a candidate to succeed Judge Hook. He told the President that as Senator Long and Mr. Leland and Gov. Bailey had been recognised ln the appointment of Judge Hook, to tha Circuit it was only fair that Senator Burton end Mulvane and that wing of the party should be recognised In the appointment of Hook's successor. Otherwise, Mulvane represented, it would be apparent to the people of Kansas that the President favored tbe Leland faction as against the Burton faction.

Mulvane did not get on well in his interview with the President He got little encouragement, and wired Burton, twho sent hlmback. Thla Spring. Burton had called at the White House and told the President that he (Burton) was Interested In the high-class Christian exhibit at St Louis, to be an exact reproduction of the City of Jerusalem.

Mulvane was told that for the last time the President was done with Burton; that Burton had betrayed his confidence, and had attempted to make the President boom stock which ho knew nothing about. More than that, he demanded and got back the letter which Burton obtained. It cornea from the highest possible authority outside the White 1 louse thst the President hua told his friends that from now on Hurton would be considered politically a Democratic Senator, as far as patronage Is concerned."

RECORD TIME TO SAVE LIFE, Mrs. Thompson Makes Trip from Paul Smith's to New York In Eight Hours. Special to Tkt New York Timuu PAUL SMITH'S. N. July Lewis 8.

Thompson of Red Bank, N. 3., who la occupying the Coper Camp on the Upper St Regis Lake, las established the record for a trip between Paul Smith's nnd New Tork City by railway train. The object of the journey of about 400 miles was to take the seven months old son of Thompson to tbe New York Hospital, where he might be attended by Dr. Winters. Yesterday morning the Infant swallowed a safety pin.

which opened and stuck In Its throat. Mrs. Thompson and the nurse could see the pin, but could not remove it She Immediately had the Thompson launch, which Is one of the fastest ln the Adlron-dacksmade ready, and the child was taken to Dr. E. L.

Trudeau at Paul Smith's, who consulted with Walter E. James of New York, who has a new camp on the Upper St Regis Lake. The doctors considered tbe situation critical and advised that the child be taken to New York City. Inasmuch as the morning had gone and it would not be possible to reach New York before the middle of the next morning by the regular train, isirs. Thompson ordered a special train, which cost her.

Including Pullman car service, about $1,000. Accompanied by Dr. E. L. Trudeau, and a nurse, Mrs.

Thompson left Paul Smith's Station at 3 o'clock P. M. yeaterdsy. ln spite of the fact that tbe Adirondack ivts-Ion of the New York Central Is a single-track road, and they had to wait now and then for a clear track, the journey to Utica was made in a little over terse hours of actual running time. This is an average of forty-two miles an hour.

There was some delay at Beaver River, where the special train took on the Pullman car Montesuma. The Montesuma had been cat out of tha regular train, but It took some time to make in charge of the Montesuma understand that the use of the car had been engaged by Mrs. Thompson some time previously at Paul Smith's. The special trAin reached New York at 11 o'clock, covering ths distance from Paul Smith's ln eight hours. Mr.

Thompson met Mrs. Thompson at the train. Dr. Winters-was wsitlng at the hospital, and removed the pin from the child's throat in about two minutes, according to dispatches received here thla afternoon. The baby is now in apparently the best of health, and will soon return to camp here with Mrs.

Twenty minutes of rain, driven Into the best-parched city by a wind of ever fifty miles' velocity, brought a change of 13 decrees In temperature ynsterday afternoon, snd for the time bolng at least broke the back of tbe torrid spell that had been lie ting New York for the three' days Once the rain had passed, the ther-Pioroeter began to climb again, and through the evening a stationary temperature of T3 degrees, with a rising humidity, bad developed a state of sticky discomfort that made humanity doubly thankful for the temporary respite.

The break In the weather conditions came none too soon." To a record of forty-four deaths In all boroughs traceable directly or indirectly to best there were added several deaths before noon. The number of prostrations diminished appreciably with each drop in temperature, and the record for these in Manhattan up to midnight was 18, In Brooklyn 11. making 153 In all boroughs for the two days preceding, a total of 1W for tbe entire hot wave. Seven -deaths were reported due to heat in Manhattan yesterday and five In Brooklyn, making a total of for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Morning cume yesterday with little en-' couragement for tbe suffering thousands, for, although the temperature up to o'clock had not reached HO degrees, the sun shone hot and the humidity was more marked than on the two days preceding.

Out tit the west there came a reasonably refreshing breese, however, ln pleasant contrast to the parching blasts of the day before, which served only to make more painfully sensible the superheated air. Thousands bad slept out of doors In the parks, along the docks of tbe water front on the recreation piers, and ln those parts of the city where access was denied to the public breathing spots, on rash's, fire escapes, and sidewalks. There were not so many of these as on the night before, for With the relief of Friday evening, folk whose homes afforded reasonable comfort preferred to stay there with the appurtenances of civilisation. When It came time to be up and around New York speedily divided Itself into two Clssses, those who could get out of town who could not' That the first class Was large was abundantly' testified to before the morning was half run at nearly every exit of Manhattan The Brooklyn Bridge entrance was like a huge funnel end, gathering In- the great flood of men Snd women and children and straining them out again on surface cars and ejeva ted trains running on dubious schedules, the Irregularities of which every one was disposed to accept with fairly good nature out of sheer thankfulness for the chance to escape the sweltering city. Ferries connecting with suburban points were in the same state of overcrowding.

Outgoing railroad train were packed and were long with extra cars or else made ud in sections. Then there were those the other class who could not get out of town, either lor the abundance of Work or the scarcity cf funds.

PUBLIC BATHS NOT READY. At the public baths, however, many were doomed to disappointment for four of the largest river public baths are still out of service. The publlo bath at 'lie Battery, although it has been at its mooring since the middle of June, will not be ready for use until Tuesday or Hundreds went there Friday and yesterday, only to meet with disappointment Three of the publlo bath are still on the "flats," their Winter Quarter, In 8ouUt Brooklyn.

According to ordinance they should have been at their moorings In Manhattan June 13, to re ma hi there until 8ept 15. The baths belong at Twelfth and Jackson Streets on the North River and at Corleara Park on the East River, and men are paid to take care of them whether they are In use or not In normal conditions they will accommodate from 6,000 to 8.UX) persons a dsy. At the two nubile baths at the foot of Third Street S.OUU women and girls went into the water on Friday, and 10.0ti0 men and boys yesterday. Several thousand more boys could not gain admission, and the police good-naturedly allowed them to go swimming In the river, baths or no bat lis The Iste opening of the baths has somewhat seriously Interfered with the plans of the Board of Education tor giving free swimming lessons, as these plans had eastern plated several extensions of the schema over what had been accomplished ln years gone by. There was both humor and pathos In the case -of Mrs.

Minor Selgeihelm and Mrs. F. Folund of 75 Osborne Street Brooklyn One of them, it seems, found a jutrticularly cool spot on the front stoop of their common tenement and had proceeded to occtt- fiy it when the other cams out and claimed t. Words followed, and then more strenuous arguments, to the end that Mrs. Fo-lund eventually landed in the Bradford Street Hospital with injuries due to a severe kicking.
