All Workers In the New York Trade Are Called Out. FORTY UNION'S ARE REPRESENTED Delegates' Representative* Visit Many Important Baildlnwii, and tile Men <init Work on Their Order. NEW YORK, June 20.? All of the unions In the building trades, both skilled and unskilled, are acting to gether in calling every man out on all contracts held by members of the Building Trades Employers' associa tion all over the city. It is expected that the delegates representing the for ty unions, in the buildiug trades will have visited gvery job in the city where men are now at work and "have called them all out". This action is taken in pursuance of a decision reach ed by the delegates at the meetings of the board of building mechanics and the old board of building trades. Secretary William H. Farley of the board of building mechanics, repre senting the majority of the skilled trades unions, and Delegate Sam Parks of the Housesmitlis and Bridge men's union, representing the unions left in the old board of building trades, started on a strike dealing cruise about the city and said they would round up every job. They first visited the new St. Regis hotel, at Fifty-fifth street and Fifth avenue, and called out 800 plasterers who were putting the finishing touches on the only con tract where Otto M. Eidlitz of the em ployers' association had men at work. Among other buildings which came under the ban of the delegates were the new Lyceum theater, in Forty fifth street; the new Amsterdam thea ter, near i- orty-seconu street ami Broadway; the New York theater, where repairs were being made; the new Astor hotel, in Longaere square, and the Metropolitan Life building, at Twenty -third street and Madison ave nue. The men were all called out on strike on these jobs and many others. Members of the Building Trades Em ployers' association said that the wholesale ordering of strikes by the unions did not change the present situ ation little more than to show the de fiant attitude which the walking dele gates are determined to take. This, they said, they expected, and it was what they had bs?en fighting, or, rather, submitting to, for the past twenty .rears. As a matter of fact, there are few men at work in any of the building trades on account of the lockout main tained by the employers. Most of the men who have been kept at work are on emergency work, where it was im possible to stop with safety. Mystery Surrounds Tills Suicide. WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., June 20.?

PRESENTEDLOVING CUP The new steamboat Asbury Park, which is to join the fleet plying be tween New York and Sandy Hook, for the Central Railroad of New Jersey, was given her trial Itrip yesterday. The Central Railroad had as its guests, abont 500 citizens of A-sbury Park, and newspaper men of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

The Asbury Park is forty feet longer than the largest of her sister ships. The exact measurements are 308 feet in length by 51 feet four inches in breadth. In general plan of construc tion she resembles the Monmouth and Sandy Hook, although many points of improvements are readily detected. From every point herjpassengers have a good view of the beauties^of the bay and passing craft. There are thirtv two private state-rooms, all of which have been engaged for the season by prominent New York families having summer estates on the New Jersey coast. The fittings of the new boat are light, cheerful and appropriate to her use on a summer route. The general finish of the saloon is oak in the nat ural wood. A dainty gold decoration on a white background lights up beautifully at night. The saloon seats are upholstered in green plush, with corresponding colorings in the ceiling and carpeting. Yesterday a special train brought the Asbury Park guests to the pier at Atlantic Highlands. A stop was made at Jersey City where a special train had biftught Hundreds of guests from Pennsylvania and points along the Central railroad. Then, amid the tooting of every rivet craft, the queen of the bay passed no the river.
