More mid more of the kindred tradesmen were idle today utid the industrial palsy is Hpreuding , Should the strike last over into next week it is probable that thu present trembling mid uncertain activity of thu building trades may give place to com plete pai nix sis. Tlio strikers have about agreed in aggressive measures should the bosses continue obstinate and refuse to meet tin- men In conference. The war will bo car ried Into the enemies' lonntry by the strikers calling out the mill curiicntors , who have hitherto remained at work. This would still nioro effectually shut down architectural work. Hut , besides this , the strikers have assurance that if they say tlto word all the organized building trades will refuse to resume work pending the settlement of the strike. The bricklayers , masons , plasterers , lathers , cornice-makers , painters and plunders are understood as being readv to do this. Should this program bo curried out the result will be the greatest strike known in the building trades for years. The only striku winch will take pltico at the stockyards , it now seems , will bo thr.t by the coopers. Unless the cight-hour-iluy and re lease from the f-tl ( deposit rule bo granted by thu employers it is now certain that the ooox-rs at work in all the lake packing houses will quit work on that date. \ < > Now York Central Strike.

I An Interior department official Is out In an Interview In this evening's Star , taking issue with the sentiment expressed by Jesse Sp-.il- dlng , government director of the Union Pa cific ruilwuy , In the report published In Tun llii : : of last Tuesday morning. The official says : "I cannot agree with Air. Spaldlng's conclusions and am of the opinion tlr.it mem bers of congress wlio support the pending funding bill will bo somewhat embarrassed In satisfying their constituents that they did wisely in voting for the bill. In the first place , there is no pressing haste us to a settle ment of the matter. The bonds are not duo for seven years , and no action can bo taken toward demanding their payment until that time. Meantime it is not unlikely that the situation may bo very materially changed. I do not believe that any sound business man desires to see the government ttiko control of thu Puclllo railroads ( nor is there the slight est danger that it will ever get control of them ) , but there nro very ninny people who believe that they should bo made to pay their honest dubts the same as other people and corporations are compelled to do. I fun extension of time is to bo runted , the time should not bo unreasonably long and the rate of Interest should certainly bo en.ua ! to what the government has to pay upon its own in debtedness. People who are paying from ( i to 10 per cent Interest , us very many are nil over the country on mortgages held against them , and nro compelled to pay when the mortgages become duu or submit to foreclosure , will not be likely to see much justice in the govern ment granting to two great and wealthy rail way corporations an extension of fifty und seventy-five years nt an interest of from I1.i to. ! per cent. There Is no force in Air. Spnld- ing's suggestion that the Pacific roads are embarrassed by government control. Surely not if all of the government directors and olll- ciuls haying to do with them feel us kindly towards them as he evidently does. If it bo true , as Air. Spalding says , that thu Union Pacific can put up sSII. < KX.i , < H)0 ) additional se curities , then can not it borrow the money on those securities und pay this debt !

WARIIISOTOV , April 13. Tn the house this morning , Mr. Knlouof Tennessee , rising to n question of privilege , sent to the clerk's desk and had read an article from the Mew York Press declaring that n gigantic Job hud been discovered In the southern war claims bill In troduced by him. The article further states that Mr. Thomas of Wisconsin , chairman of thu commlttco on war claims , had denounced the bill us ono of the most Infamous jobs which had over been foisted upon congress. Mr. Thomas said ho had not censured lyiy member of the committee. Ho stated that if the bill passed the house It would bo Infam ous because ho thought ho could prove that a number of claims on the bill were claims of persons notably disloyal. Mr. Kuloo said that the clmriro In the arti cle that ho had brought the bill before tlio house in a surreptitious manner was n false hood made by the correspondent , or a falsehood made for him nml repeated by him. His action in regard to the bill hud al ways been straightforward and ho denounced the aiticle us a slander on the bill ami on the members of the committee. Mr. Thomas reiterated his statement that n number of claims In the bill W TO thosu of disloyal persons and that u number of them had nuver been examined by the committee. Mr. lititterworth of Ohio moved that the house go into committee of the whole for the consideration of the legislative appropriation bill , but the friends of the calendar mustered a sufficient force to defeat tlio motion yeas , 112 ! ; nays , I Hi. Mr. Cannon of IllinoissubniiUodadisagree- ing conference report upon the national Xoo bill.

Mr. Henderson of Illinois reported the river and harbor appropriation bill and it was re ferred to the committee of the whole. The house then went into committee of the whole on the private calendar. The court of claims bill was first on the calendar and Mr. Thomas offered a resolution to report the bill back with the recommenda tion that it bo referred to the committee on rules for investigation of the status of the measure in connection with the rules of the house. Lost. The point of order was raised by Mr. Kerr that thu committee on war claims hud no jurisdiction over the rule. Mr. Thoiims of Wisconsin then offered n resolution that tlio bill bo reported buck to the house with the recommendation that it bo re committed with Instructions to the commit tee on war claims to inquire into the loyalty of each claimant. Ho said each bill contained L's.1 claims , based on thu pretended findings of the court of claims. Of this number there were eight cases where no findings were transmitted to congress. In ltd cases the usual method of ascertaining tlio loyalty of the parties had not b.x-n followed. The com mittee on war claims had bunched these liNl claims without any examination or investiga tion. The secretary of war had transmitted to the committee since the report of the bill a statement showing that in eighty-four eases the claimants filed vouchorstfor supplies fur nished confederates , or done soineouierthing indicating disloyalty. DMr. Cannon said that if this was correct the house dare not pass thu bill until it was thor oughly investigated. Mr. Jiiiclmimn of Xew.Torsey denounced the attempt to drag through a corrupt measure y.'ith incorrupt cases. Mr. Houk of Tennessee said it was not so much corruptness as a desire to kill the bill. This precipitated a wordy war , in which Messrs. liuchumin , Ilouk , Kerr and others took part. Mr. Stockdalo of Mississippi argued that the fact that a man signed a voucher for fur nishing supplies to the confederate army was no proof of disloyalty. If ho had not signed , his property would have been taken anyway. Mr. Houk spoke for tlio loyal men of the south , declaring Unit had it not been for them the confederacy would have succeeded. After n tilt between Messrs. Houk mid Orosvenor a resolution offered by Mr. Ale- Comas was agreed to , recommitting the bill with instructions to the committee to report it back within two weeks , and that the bill be placed at the head of tlio calendar. The resolution was reported to the house and Mr. ( Jrosvenor raised a point of order , and the speaker ruled the resolution out of order. The hill , therefore , went buck on the calendar. Heccss.

One is by the bullion redemption proposed In his bill , ami In mithorl/.ing the sale of bonds to provide a gold reserve It becomes necessary to redeem them. The latter policy ho believed wholly unnecessary mid unjusti fiable , und hence there Is no other means of protection than thu bullion redemption prop osition. He said ho deemed this feature abso lutely essential In protecting the credit , of the country and would feel It his duly to oppose any measure that gave holders of certificates the option In the currency In which It should bo redeemed. After the secretary hud given his views upon the bill and the basis for them , u discus sion , rathei * desultory in its niiture , took phico upon the subject of thinnsuftlciency of circulation.

Actually , however , this sum wus subject to diminution by several amounts that are tied up in vari ous ways-reserves held for redemption of notes , etc.so that the pcrcuplta umoiuil was considerably less than S-.JI.70. The secretary agreed with the senators , us he had with the representatives , that mi addition to the circulation was nec essary , hut in conference today no definite sum was asked by any one. Some of the committee were in favor this morning of conceding the point insisted on by thu secretary that of making the purchase certilicutes redeemable in bullion , but to this the silver men say they will not agree under any circumstances. There is also a difference of opinion among the committecmen upon the proposition to miiko the purchase certificates legal tender. Til K I' . IX1.11 Kll It'.IS. .
