The Chicago Strike.
CHICAGO November 12th-One small
riot, properly nipped in the bud, was all
that occurred at the stock yards to-day to
relieve the mouotony of the strike. A hun
dred or so strikers attempted to tear in
pieces the outfit of recently engaged en-
| pIoye of Armour e. Co, who was moving
to new place of residence. Some of the
Sheriffs Deputies interfered before much
damage was done, but the mob remained
in the vicinity for some time, and at last
| accounts the unfortunate employe was still
under the protection of the Sheriff guards.
| There is a large increase in the number of
men at work, and it would seem that in a
| few days the houses would have full gangs
at work, One packer, on looking over the
crowd of a thousand or more, remarked
that the material was none OF the best, and
would need considerable wedding out be-
fore il would be very serviceable. There is
a crowd of colored people among the i'm
ported men.
KNIGHTS IN SESSION.
A committee. consisting of Messrs. Barry,
Carleton, Marshall and Schilling. was in
| session all morning at the Transit House.
Numerous visitors were usherei up stairs
to the room in which the committee sat,
but no amount of inquiry could elicit any
information.
THE BOYCOTT IN FORCE.
A new feature OF the strike is the boy
cotting of Armour's meats by District AS
semblies Nos. 81 and "A, Knights of Labor.
A local boycott has also been placed on
Underwood & Co.
EXPECTED COMPROMISE.
CHICAGO, November 18th. - Tonight
! many are of the opinion that the stock
wards strike will be settled before Monday.
Their supposition is that Amour knows
more about the probabilities and possibili-
ties of settlement than any one. To-day
he decided not to take any more men until
Monday, and it is this fact that gives color
to the belief that the matter will be settled
before that day. Many rumors as to a set
tlement were in circulation, but none that
| could be confirmed. One report was that
lishments had agreed to withdraw from
the Packers Association and by taking
their pick of the most skillful former en-
ployes of Armour, Fowler and other lead
ing packers, attempt to gain prestige on
| that score, as well as by starting up as
Knights of Labor houses. The strikers
leaders received and sent many kilograms
during the day and evening, but absolutely
declined to say a word as to whether or
not the condition of affairs had been
altered.
sHRoUDED IN MYSTERY.
CHICAGO, November 12th-Midnight-
Last night Messrs Barry and Carleton said
that they had been working on a certain
line, the import of which they were not at
| liberty to explain. Carleton admitted that
he had an engagement to meet a member
of the Packers Association tomorrow, but
said he had an idea that the meeting would
| ! e fruitless, and that the packer merely
wished to show that the employers origi-
| nal plans had not been changed Messrs.
Barry and Carleton denied that they had
| been in conference with any of the packers,
| and intimated that their secret departure
| from the stock yards was merely a ruse to
| rid themselves from a swarm of reporters.
| The opinion is general among well posted
strikers that important instructions have
been received from Powderly, and that the
leader are engaged in shaping their policy
| to accord with the ideas of the General
Master Workman.
