only accept a restoration OF former
wages. A writton promise was given
him, signed by the executive committee

will be allowed TO run and
property not be tampered with. AS an
evidence of tho widespread Influence OF

with strikers at other points To hold out
until the demands of all the strikers on
the entire Gould system had been
agreed to. The militia from st. Louis
