WINONA, July 3.-A strike at the mills
of the Winona Lumber company, orig
mating among the Polish laborers, laid
400 men off to-day, and business at the
mills is at stand-still. On account of
the rush of business the men employed
by the Winona Lumber company have
been working twelve hours a day, re-
ceiving pay for day and quarters
work. AS the other saw mills in the
city have been running but eleven
hours day, the lumber company de-
cided to reduce the working hours
to that number, paying the men
for eleven hours work. But
there was dissatisfaction at once among
the POlanderS, who claimed they
wanted to work either twelve hours
and get quarter of days pay extra
or ten hours, which is a usual days
work. This morning, when the whistle
blew and the mills started up, the men
stood around with their arms folded and
refused to work. Of course the mill
was soon clOgged up and compelled to
shut down, There was nothing doing
there during the day and the mill will
remain shut down until after the
Fourth. The Lumber company feels
that it has acted fairly with the men
and has no concessions to grant. The
strike, while involving the entire
working force of the saw mill,
was the work of but a portion Of
the men. There was some threatening
among the men that general strike
among all the saw mills would result
unless the outcome of this one was sue
cessful. but it is not thought likely that
anything of the kind is anticipated at
the other mills. Andrew Hamilton,
president of the Winona Lumber COM
pany, told the men to-day that all who
wished to return Thursday morning
and work eleven hours could do so.
