Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1882-06-03
A square right at Detroit.

DETROIT, june Zone of the union men
from Baugh's Steam Forge, this city, this
afternoon reported a lockout at that estab-
lishment. He says the puddlers worked up
TO last Saturday, and were intending to work
until yesterday morning, at least, before
striking. Mr.. Baugh proceeded to shut
down the mill department on the plea that
he was out of pig-lron. On Wednesday he
informed the workmen that he had decided
not to employ any more union men. His
action in thus taking the bull by the horns
was disconcerting, and the unionists ap-
pointed a committee TO wait on him, but lie
| informed them that his mind was made up.
A joint meeting of union and non-union
men is called for tonight, when an effort
will be made to induce the non-union men
| to quit work. The union is said to include
in its membership all the puddlers and
scrap-heaters, and nearly half the axle-men
! employed at the forge. The unionist who
gave this information added: ats going to
be a square fight and we can stand it as long
as he can"
The Situation Unchanged at Chicago.
SOUTH CHICAGO, June g. There is no
material change in the situation at Irondale
this morning. All the men are still out.
President Jarratt has not arrived, and tele-
grams have been received stating that he
will not come on as expected.
TELEGRAMS RECEIVED.
Pat Carmody, the corresponding secretary
of the Iron Makers Association here, has
just received the following dispatch from
President Jarratt at Pittsburg: "My instruc-
lions being only advisory, you are at liberty
to stop, provided they all stop"
Mr.. Carmody has also received the follow
ing telegram from Vice-President J. C. Bull
lock, OF Bay View, Milwaukee: "Do not
work unless they sign the scale. We are out
and will stop out until they all sign. 1 will
call them out"
h. WELL PROVIDED WITH FUNDS.
Indications now are that the men will
stay out until the manufacturers give in.
The men claim that they have half mill
lion dollars in the treasury at Pittsburg and
that the steel and rail men will come to
their aid with money when they need it.
The employees of the steel rail mills and iron
rail mills, in all making about 100 men, are
out of employment here.
WAGES THE IRoNwoRKERs ARE STRIKING
AGAINST.
The wages which the ironworkers are
striking against are as follows: Nail feeders,
81 rs per day; helpers, 81; puddlers Al to
per cent; nailers, per cent; rollers, 8 to
10 per cent. They demand 10 10 10 per cent.
THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR
have taken friendly interest in the brick
makers strike, and propose a conference for
compromise and Cancellation, they represent
ing the interests of the strikers. The en-
ployers have given no answer, and are not
much inclined to treat with the men, who
have been troublesome and evasive.
THE RIOT AT BRIDGEPORT.
The attack of dock laborers at Bridgeport,
last night, upon a Chicago and Alton train,
was we'll executed, and evinced careful plan
ming. Though roughly armed with sticks,
clubs, pieces of iron and stones, the number
of broken heads attest their effectiveness.
Three had their skulls laid bare by vicious
blows, and half dozen others were crippled
or hurt in various degrees. None OF the in
jured are likely to die, even Judge Pills
bury being in a fair way to recover at last
accounts. The rioters quickly fed when
their vengeance was satisfied. The police
we're on the scene and have made several
arrests, including james O'Brien, John
O'Neil aud John Frawley, all on suspicion.
A dispatch from Dwight Gays one of the
rioters was accidentally shot in the forehead.
The witnesses of the affair are being locked
up. David Mcmillan, of Dwight, who was
with Judge Pillsbury, says the shot which
struck him was fred from inside the car, but
none of the party saw the man who fired it.
1t is believed, however, that important clews
are in the hands OF the police, and that the
miscreants will be brought TO Justice.
Nigh-There is little change in the situa-
ton in the strike this evening. The police
have made several more arrests of persons
supposed to have been concerned at Brighton
