There are some curious and interesting
facts in the Cincinnati strike, that are
quite worthy of mention. The firms
struck against are Krohn, Feiss & Co.
and Newburger Brothers. The former
firm employed about 200 men and only a
few women, while in the Newburgers'
establishment about one-fourth only of
the employees are women. In two other
Cincinnati firms, however, the proportion
Of women employees is much larger than
the men-Weil, Kahn & Co. employing
nearly 40 women, while the mum.
Der Of female employees at Lowenthal's
is quite large. 1t is said in these RIVAL
firms, it would make but little difference
whether their male employees struck or
not. They have female hands enough to
60 on with the business, and could easily
fill up the places Of male operatives with
other female workers, as cigar making is
an easy trade to learn. Another curious
fact is, that the firms struck against can
not afford to discharge their girls, as the
other firms would give these ready en-
ployment even if they discharged their
male employees, as they could afford to
reduce rates and undersell frms employ
ing men only. The strike has been the
work of the Trades Union, which re-
fuses to allow women to be employed in
factories it proposes to control. As mat
tiers now stand, it seems as though the
Trades Union had a job on hand that
would last it until the millennium, as
there are strong indications that women
will soon enjoy q monopoly of the cigar
business as they do now of the shirt-iron-
ing industry.-z0led0 Blade.
