The Strike at the North Side Rolling
Mills.

A large and important community, the op-
eratives at the North Chicago Rolling Mills.
have, in their recent strike of Monday last,
exerted an influence which has spread over the
entire city Fully a. have the local papers
attempted to give an account of the strike,
they have grossly misrepresented the true
state of affairs, and have conveyed an errone-
GUS impression to the public mind. The one
sided version Of the affair doing injustice to
the strikers, q reporter of the Advocate was
dispatched to themills and immediate vicinity
to investigate the matter, and was enabled by
thorough inquiry to elicit the real facts of the
case
The strike, involving the abandonment of
work by nearly 800 men, originated among
the heaters, who number some SO, and who
perform . most important function in the op-
GRAFTON of the mills. These men, who are
skilled workmen, and peculiarly adapted to
the labor in which they are engaged, have
been working since May |, 1873, upon a plan
known rs a gradated scale Thus, when iron
rails sold at $50 per ton, the average being
cent TO dollar, they were to receive SO cents
per ton for their manipulation Of material If
the price went up to $50 so per ton, they
were to receive IS cents per ton; but if the
current price was So per ton, their wages
would remain at IS cents, the advantage be-
ing equal on either side, and with this arrange
ment the workmen were perfectly satisfied
Upon entering the employ of the mills, and
before receiving their monthly pay, the heat
er was obliged to sign every month contract
binding him to give two weeks notice. in case
he wished to leave This contract. at the cur
rent rates Of payment for work, the ProPrie-
tors informed the workmen on the 18th Of
June last, would expire one month subsequent
that is, on the 18th Of July. On that date
the proprietors informed the hsaters that. ow-
inc TO fact that material had advanced, while
the manufacturers prices had not. they would
thereafter pay the wOrkmen but 70 cents per
tOn, the currsut price being 90 csnts. and that
this reduction would be made throughout the
entire miIls The heaters accepted the prop

ton being definitely taken in the matter
by the Convention. the heaters struck, and
were followed by the entire mill force.
The heaters hold that they strike only be
couse the reduction is contrary to contract.
no other mills having reduced the heaters
prices, and no reduction being made in the
prices Of rail iron. They also hold that the
proprietors deceived them in stating that the
twelve per cent reduction would be universal
throughout the mill. while it has only affected
themselves.
In abiding to the heaters, and supporting
then in the strike, the puddlers, hookers and
laborers are acting wisely They realize the
fact that if the proprietors once obtain the
reduction with the heaters. their own wages
viii share . similar fate.
How long the strike will last 1t is difficult
to surmiss The strikers are determined, and
the lAbOrers stsadfastly refuse to resume work
if new heaters are engaged.
