At ANY Kate, the Lake Shore Tie-Up at
Chicago Is Ended.
CHICAGO, April q. -Conferenees between
the railroad Off ias and the strikers on the
Lake Shore were the order from Thursday
night until Friday afternoon Propositions
and counter propositions were made, but
the exact substance of them has not trans
pred However, the strikers held secret
meeting after dinner Friday, and when they
adjourned il was given out that an agree
ment had been reached, and by 3 p IN
trains were running witho ut interference
and the freight yards were alive with busy
men making up and taking out trains, loud
cheers frequently expressing the satisfaction
the men felt at the end of the trouble.
The hasis of agreement, as given by the
men, is that the Lake Shore officials had
agreed on their part to dispose of the eight
non union switchmen in some manner within
the next sixty days, by placing them in
some other department or otherwise caring
for them; in any event to take them away
from the yards where they are at present
working.
&. On the other hand, President Newell said
TO press representative that the switchmen
return to work without any stipulation
whatever on his part. and that the non -un
ion men resume their places as swtchmen.
Tom Collins was surrounded by crow i.
He said: They have conceded our pont.
1t is better that we compromise than to
carry this so far that it will lead to a strike
on all the roads and the laboring people
would suffer. The company has agreed to
take away these men inside of sixty days
and they may leave within twonty four
hours. There has been no blood spilled and
We have gained our rights"
