General Business Dull in Consequence of
the Strike.

General Business Duh in Consequence of
the Strike.
CHICAGO, July 0.-Superintendent Clowry
reports that the business of the Chicago
Office of the Western Union Company is
moving along without any perceptble fric-
lion, and that while there is not the usual
rapid service, nevertheless all vital CONNER
cial and personal messages and press dis
patches are being sent over the wires with
out marked delay None of the old oper-
ators have as yet reported back for duty but
recruits have come in from country towns
to take their places. and old operators who
had gone into other lines of business have
also applied and been given situations.
On Change this morning there was a dis
inclination to engage in trading and but lit
tie business was transacted during the early
hours.
The strikers here display firmneSs in their
determination TO stand out for a considerable
period and ex press the belief that the COM
pany will have to accede to their demands.
81 knew we had the men beaten ten min
utes after the strike had taken place." said
Colonel Clowry this afternoon, land subse-
nuent developments have proven my opin-
lon was correct" The Superintendent went
on to declare that the company was already
in position to handle more business than the
public was handing i'll.
Manager McCulloch, of the B. & o. COM
pany, takes more gloomy view of the stu
alton, and-declares that his company is prac-
ideally at stand-still. In this city, St.
Louis and Cincinnati a number of applica-
lions have been made for situations, but the
applicants, as a rule. prove incompetent. He
asserts it as his view that the operators will
,xin in the impending controversy
The striking operators held a meeting
this afternoon, which was largely
attended and there was considerable en-
;husiasm. Ninety four new members were
initiated, including number brought to
,he city to take the places of those who
quilted the office on Thursday. Members of
the Brotherhood expressed bitterness at 1.-THE
reports given by a portion of the press as to
the situation in other cities, and they
claimed they were colored for
rae benefit of the company They further
contended that their advices from every
Fargo city showed that the companies were
On hard straits. and were keeping up a show
iof activity, while in reality they were badly
crippled. None of the Chicago strikers have
fhus far made application to return to the
pompanys employ.
Al o'clock this afternoon the Chicago
officials Of the Western Union company
claimed to'b6 well up on all business Oh

The article in your to-day's issue concern
ing the steps taken by the colored conven-
ton held at Charleston, S. c., think TO be
false and gotten up to deceive the people for
the following reasons:
l. Because they claim to be an organized
body to consider matters of Importance, and
yet no persons name was signed to the
article.
3 Because they have threatened to cut
loose from all political parties, and yet are
going TO apply to Congress for aid toward
lettering their school system.
g. Because they find great faults in the Re
publican party, and none at all III the Demo-
cratic party; when it Is well known that a
similar meeting was held April 80, 1879, de-
nouncing the Democratic party for their
cruel treatment and the proceedings were

STRIKE NOTES.
The Terms on Which the Strikers VIII BE
Taken Back.

The Terms Which the Strikers VIII BE
Taken Back.
Interview in Chicago Times.
I'VE will take the strikers back" was the
decision of Colonel R. C. Clowry, general
superintendent of the western division,
which is all the territory west of Pennsylva-
mia, to Times representative, "only, how
ever on one condition"
What is that?'
THAT they withdraw from the Brother
hood of photographers"
And do you think they will do it?'
We do not care whether they will or not
We are perfectly independent"
III they made such acapitulation, what re-
dress would they have in the futureY'
II don't care" Mr.. Clowry responded
what they could or what they could not do
They did not show us any mercy. 1t was a
matter of life aud death with us, and they
left us-waked right out without giving us
minutes notice. Long before the strike,
we had decreased the time OF a working day
to nine hours, and given them other conces-
sions. Now their demands are equal to 80
per cent. increase. We could not pay it, and
we have chosen the alternate. So have they
and they will have to abide by it,"
IF they agreed to withdraw from the
Brotherhood, would you accede to their de-
mands?p
THAT do not know; but what do know
is that we have been but very slightly incon-
venienced by the strike"
