Six Thousand Men on q Strike.

CHICAGO, November 1.-Nearly 6, 900 men
in the slaughter house of Swift & Morris
quit work this morning. The trouble 10
over the resumption of the ten-hour sys-
TEN, the men refusing to work the addi-
tional two hours without additional pay.
Each OF the two houses employs about
5000 men. None of the other packing
houses are affected. An attemptwas made
to induce the men in Armours and other
large houses to stop, but they refused to
90 out.
Further particulars from the stock yards
are to the effect that Swift's beef-killers
sent a committee to him on Saturday and
INSISTED ON HAVING AN INCREASE
of fifty cents a day should the firm return
to the ten-hour system. This morning,
when the butchers went to work, they
noticed that Foreman Wilder, OF Swift's,
had DISCHARGED James Matthewson, one OF
the committeeman; they also found that
the wages Of the laborers had not been in
creased, 80 they struck. They insist now
on having Matthewson reinstated, and
also to return to the eight-hour system.
| On hearing Swift's men were outside the
| beef-butchers employed by Morris went
out. The crowd went down to Smith e
| machine shop and
COMPELLED THE MEN
there to strike. After this they went TO
Armour's for the purpose of calling the
men out, but this move was anticipated
| by the foreman, who got police force to
guard the principal entrances, and the
| crowd was kept away. The strikers ar
| ranged to hold a meeting during the day
| A number of the executive committee told
a reporter that unless the two firms gave
| in all the employees OF the yards would oe
called out.
CHICAGO, November 1.-Between two and
three hundred men in Libbey, Mcneil q
I,ibbey's establishment also went out. The
reason was that the Morris establishment
nartly supplies the firm with beef. At
meeting OF the strikers held to-day no one
hut Knights OF Labor were admitted
Fully / 900 non-union strikers congregateo
on the outside, anxious awaiting tht
Knights. Several speeches were made
and wild applause greeted every reference
to an eight-hour day. A motion to maxi
no compromise short of eight hours wal
carried unanimously. A committee was ap
pointed to take charge of the strike, ant
given full power to act. A Knight OF Labol
EXPLAINED that the men had been offered
the reinstatement of the discharged men
but they would now hold out for the return
to the eight-hour system. He said the pro
prietors would be given till Saturday to de
eide what they would do. and il they PEI
sisted in running ten hours general strlk
would probably be ordered which wou:!
