The labor troubles which have followed
Ilon Oeraldlno'n connection with the ex
position culminated yesterday In an open
filrlkc. All the men employed on the
grounds who belong to labor organizations
laid down their tools' and the erection of
the buildings In the main court Is at a stand ,
( till. The carpenters and the staff workers
nil quit , except a few men employed by
Hamilton Bros , on the Machinery building ,
am ] a conference was appointed with them
at noon.
Representatives of the labor unions charge
'Dion Geraldlne with being directly rcspon-
elbb for this condition of affairs. They nay
that ho has brought outside labor Into
Omaha and has flooded the cast with reports
that there ( ire not enough carpenters , plas
terers , painters and men of various other
building trades In Omaha to do the work
ncidcd on the exposition , and that this has
resulted In bringing Into Omaha hundreds
of men who are taking the work directly
out of the hands of men who live In Omaha
* dnd have their families here , many of whom
own property In the city. These men say
'
'there Is no truth In the reports sent out by
Geraldlnoto eastern contractors and trade
journals , and that ho has been actuated
palely by a desire to "break the back of or
ganized labor. " They also say that Gcral-
dlno Is directly responsible for the actions
of the contractors In refusing to treat with
reprercntatlvcs of organized labor.
* DEMANDS OF LABOR.
At thu last meeting of the Building Trades
council a resolution was adopted demanding
fhat ( .vganlzod labor be recosnlzed by the Ex
position management and that none but union
labor bo employed on the g'oitnds. This
resolution was prefaced by numerous
"v/hercases , " reciting that all former efforts
to secure recognition had failed ; that scab
labor from the outside had been brought Into
the city to take the work away from Omaha
men ; that u proposition to vote $100,000 of
county bonds In aid of the exposition Is
about to bo presented to the vote H of Doug
las county. The demand for recognition was
followed by a resolution declaring that all
Iho allied trades represented In the Building
Tiades council would do all In their power
to defeat the bond proposition unless accorded
recognition on the exposition work.
The adoption of this resolution was followed
by a meeting of representatives of all the
building trades' organization at Labor Temple
Sunday afternoon , at which It was decided
to Inaugurate a strike on the exposition
grounds. At this meeting the attitude of
Geraldlno came In for cenMire.
STRIKE IS ORDERED.
Yesterday the strike order took effect ,
and at the hour of commencing work the
carpenters and staff men laid down their
tools and walked out. The men demand
that eight hours shall constitute a day's
work ; that carpenters shall receive 30 cents
per hour , and that none but union men
shall bo employed. The men say that the
contractors have been paying carpenters but
20 or 25 cents per hour and that they have
been hiring laborers to do carpenters' work ,
such as laying floors , etc. , and have been
requiring all men to work nine or ten hours
All of the men employed on the Manufac
tures building walked out and absolutely
nothing Is being done about the building.
The carpenters' w'orklng on the Adminis
tration bulldlag walked out and two or three
.lathers aad ono or two moa employed In
putting on the roofing material are all -that
are working about 'the ' building. The big
Mines building was deserted , not a man be
ing at work on It ; a few men were engaged
In netting up ( ho boiler for the planing mill
to bo operated by Contractor Gildle for this
building. Thn Machinery building was the
only ono whore any work was being done ,
a ferro of fifteen men being at workl Ol
this number four or flvo were union men anil
a conference was agreed on between the
union representatives and all of the men
emplo > cd.
cd.VIEWS
VIEWS OF CONTRACTORS.
Contractor Hamilton of the Mines- building
eald he Intended to go ahead regardless o
what the union did. He said he was undo ,
bonds to complete the building at a certa'li
1 time and would employ non-uni'on labor I
necessaiy. He said he wus paying from 25
1o : ! 0 cents per hour , according to a man's
ability , a\eraglng about 28 cents per hour
and working ti > n hours a day. Ho also ntate (
that the union would only allow one laborei
to live carpenters and ho said ho could w.pck.
a Mrger Jinr centage of laboro'ra "to ad-
VEtUago.
Contractor Goldlo said he Intended to be
governed by what the local contractors do litho
the matter. Ho said he was delayed by the
failure of some of his Icwg timber to arrlvu
and could wait a few days without anv los. *
to himself until the matter Is decided.
Contractor Strchlow said he had been cm
ploying union labor all along and oxpectei
to continue doing so.
The staff workers also Jiavo a few grlev
nncej nnd say they will take advantage o
the present strlkf to have a few adjustments
on tholr own account. They complain tha
the staff contractors are employing greei
llano's ' to do casting and other Intricate par
'tlons ot the staff work , paying them almos
- nothing nnd getting very Inferior work , The
staff men \\cre1 recently organized Into a
union , dnd they say they are going to claln
the protection and co-operation uf the other
uulons ,

At the meeting of the executive commit-
ee of the exposition held yesterday after-
eon at the Commercial club rooms the
rlnclpal matter before the committee was
resolution Introduced by Manage ? Hose-
ater designed to curtail the arbitrary nu-
liorlty he ctoforo exercised by Dion Oeral-
Ine , ( superintendent of construction of the
kyartment of Ilulldlngs and Qrounds , In
tlio purchasing of large amounts of supplies
and hiring of high-priced men without any
authority or without the knowledge of the
executive committee until the bills were re
ceived. The resolution orovlilod that the au
thority granted the derailment be limited
o the purchase of supplies to the extent of
50 and the employment of day laborers.
Manager Klrkcndall Insisted that the de-
> zrtmcnt had never been granted any such
authority and stated that he had never failed
o lay all such matters before the executive
lommlttce before taking action. In reply to
his Mr. Itosewater referred to the testimony
Ivcn by Oeruldlno In his own defense when
mdcr Investigation , In which he stated that
10 had understood that he had authority to
my supplies and hire men and had acted
long these lines. Mr. Klrkendall stood by
ils former contention , but sold he would
.ot object to the portion of the resolution
pfeTlng to the employment of day laborers.
The resolution was changed to eliminate
II except the portion giving the department
tithcrlty to employ laborers , and after some
discussion It was withdrawn entirely.
During the discussion on this matter ref-
renco was made to the written defense
made by QeralJino to the charges Hied against
him , especially that po.tlon of the document
aferrlng to Rudolf Ulrlch , the landscape ar
chitect , where Gcraldlne makes answer to
the charge that the ground plan of the blurt
ract , as prepared by Ulrlh , had been
hantpcl hv finmlilllm wlthnnf thn Unmvloileo
r consent of the exosutlvo committee. In
his statement GeMldlno said that Ulslch had
ent his written resignation to him ( Ocral-
llt'ie ) August 7 , and he attached what pur-
> ortod to be Ulrlch's resignation to the
vrttten defense. Mr. Klrkendall expressed
ornu surprise at this portion of Qeraldlne's
tatenibiit , and admitted that he had known
lothlng about Ulrlch resigning , although
Jeraldlnc stated that he had had the rcslg-
latlon for over two months.
In this correction Mr. Itosewater stated
hat ho had written to Ulrlch after he learned
of the alleged resignation , and he produced
i telegram he had just received In reply from
'Irlch , reading : "I will do your work satls-
actory. A letter follows. "
The remainder of this portion of Geruldlne'H
statement was also read to the committee ,
icing to the effect that after Ulrlch's rcslg-
mtlon was received by Geraldlne the latter
came to the conclusion that the p'un as
drawn by Ulrlch was too expensive and con
cluded to change It and had employed men
'or that purpose , stating , further , that when
lie had flxcd It to suit him he had Intended
laying It before the executive committee.
The members of the executive committee
were speechless after this display , and the
natter was allotted to rest until the re
ceipt of Ulrlch's letter.
Manager Uruce announced the appointment
of Edward Whltcomb of Friend as superln-
.eudent of the Apiary bureau. The aryalnl-
inent was confirmed.
Mr. nosowater asked that the committee
meet tomorrow noon to take up the report
of the special committee appointed to In
vestigate Geraldlne , provided It is ready to
report , In order that action might be taken
on the matter before the meeting of the
Board of Directors at 4 p. m. today.

The primaries to select delegates to the
Ity convention will bo held Thursday aft
ernoon and the convention will occur at
Vashlngton hall Friday evening. Although
he only nominations to be made this year
are these of members of the Hoard of Educa-
lon there Is more than usual Interest In-the
complexion of the next board and there ore
jratlfylng Indications of a strong sentiment
n favip of solcctlug the best possible ma-
crlal for that part of the republican ticket.
) wlng to several retirements which have oc
curred during the year there are seven va
cancies to bo filled at this election. Five
f these are for the regular term of five
ears , one for two years to nil the unex-
ilred term of I. O. Hhoades and one for one
ear to nil the uncxplrcd term of C. H.
) avldson. The members whose terms ex
pire at the end of the year are William H.
Anderson. A. W. Johnson , J. L. Welshans ,
A. j ; Lunt. Dr. J. C. Moore. H. J. Pcnfold ,
and Phil E. Wlivters. Ot these only the first
wo named have served full terms. The
others have been elected by the board at
various times to fill vacancies. Penfold was
elected to nil the vacancy caused by the
csigtiatlon of Nov. T. E. Cramblet , Dr.
Uoore to succeed Lunt. Lunt to succeed
Rhoadcs , Welshans to succeed C. R. David
son and Winters to succeed Jonathan Ed
wards.
FILLING THE VACANCIES.
For thtse vacancies there arc a sufficient
lumber of candidates , a number of whcm
lave previously been members of the board ,
rho First ward has no candidate , having
already two representatives on the board ,
n the Second the candidates are Andrew
Clew It , John C. Drowlngtou and J. L.
WclRhnns. H. J. Pcnfold Is a candidate for
e-eleetlon from the Fourth , and In the
MTUi there Is a vigorous rivalry between Dr.
Moore and A. J. Lunt. Dr. W. iH. Christie
ind J. P. Burgess are both candidates In the
sixth , and IJ. F. Thomas Is In the field
rom the Seventh. A. A. Uuchanan and C.
E. Morgan of the Eighth are both candidates
and Charles E. Winter in the Ninth.
In each caeo except the Fifth ward , there
s only one delegation filed , the candidates
laving consented to place their names on
the ballot with the understanding that the
ono which receives the endorsement' a
majority of the voters will have the support
of the delegation. Hut In the Fifth there is
i. feud of long standing to bo fought and the
; wo tickets represent two factions that have
n contending for supremacy In the warl
tor two years. The element which Is now
supporting Dr. Moore won a victory at the
primaries Icct week and each elde Is confl-
lent of electing Its delegation Thursday.
Lunt has already provided for a possible de
feat , however by securing the delegation
from the Third ward by virtue of the elec
tion of Frank Heacock as Janitor at the Co-
Uimblan school. If ho Is defeated In his own
ward he will Btlll have a delegation with
which to fight his way In the convention.
The fight In the Fifth ward extends In
some degree to the other wards and there
Is a strong undercurrent of opposition to
Lunt. A number of delegations are said to
be solidly orposed to the continuance of the
present majority in control and the question
of divorcing politics from school matters Is
cutting a good deal or figure In the contest.
The following are the complete delegates
from the wards : :

\Vill be welcomed in the new store. The Nebraska is not
a store for classes never was. We will be glad to meet
everybody and to welcome them and to serve them to the
best of our ability as if we had no new store at all. We are
not the kind of people to put on airs. Because we happen
to have the finest store in Omaha is no reason why we
should brag about it or put on airs , It is more to our wish
to be known as having a reliable store rather than a hand
some store. Beauty is but the handmaid of equity here.
Whether it is a Prince Albert suit or a pair of overalls. A
five-cent collar or a broadcloth coat , A necktie or a hat ,
or an overcoat or a cheap bandanna handkerchief we sell
them at the same old prices and in the same old way the
satisfactory way. If you are at a , loss to find what you want
just ask the first clerk you come to. Things are not quite
as smooth today as they will be later on. The main thing
you want to think about The Nebraska is that it is a safe
store. Whatever you buy here will bs of sterling qu-ihty
and cheaper than you can buy it elsewhere. Your money
back when you want it has been your safeguard with us for
dozen years. It will Joe your safeguard at The Nebraska as
long as we run a store.
