THE BEER BOYCOTT.

Plans of Chicago and Milwaukee Brewers for
Destroying Its Effect
CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-It was reported this morn
ing that the Central Labor nion In Chicago had
taken up the fight of the Brewer-workers' Union,
and declared boycott on Milwaukee beer; also.
that the Chicago brewers had decided to get
even with the Labor Union in way of their
own that is novel as well as effective. Michael
Keely, president of the Brewers Association, in
speaking of the matter said: There is some-
thing interesting in regard to that rumor which
workers Union, in New York. issued circular
announcing a boycott on Milwaukee beer The
members of that union in Milwaukee obeyed
the e,.s sdict TO Ts man But they y were ss not
carried out in Chicago. and the other
day went before the Central Labor Onion,
it to declare the boycott in Chicago. The Cen
trail Labor Union took no action upon the propo-
siton. deferring its consideration until some
future time Now we are waiting to sec what
the Anarchists will no about it. II they decide
to stop drinking Milwaukee beer and refuse TO
patronize saloon keepers who buy it, why, Of
course, some of the saloon keepers will be COM
PEELED to buy beer of some one else until the boy
colt is lifted In that case feel safe in saying
that Chicago brewers would see that the saloon
keepers GOT plenty of beer Our association has
made provisions for just such emergencies. We
will furnish the beer, and the legitimate profits
would he turned over to the Milwaukee brew
dollar on account of the boyeott Tha
Chicago and Milwaukee brewers belong TO
the same association, and that is no moro than
the Milwaukee men would do for as if the tables
were turned and we should get in their fix. It
is foolish for a few thousand eerdrinkine AnAr-
chists to suppose that they can get ahead OF the
brewers by a boycott. Why. could fix it so
that not an Anarchist could buy q glass OF beer
in Chicago. No, cir; my advice to the Central
Labor Union is that they go ahead and drink
Milwaukee beer if that is what they have been
drinking. and let the Chicago saloon keepers
alone. The boycott came about in the frst
place because the ignorant brewer-workers did
not know what they were about. Simply TO ha
up with the times they imposed boycott In
Milwaukee, but they had better not attempt ~
carry it into Chicago"

No Trouble ON the Railway.

No Trouble on the Railway.
PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 3--The strike has not
materially interfered with the business OF the
Reading railroad at the freight wharves. Work
at those points Is going on as usual. Large
quantities of freight were moved to-day. and the
work went on without interruption. The men
were not intimidated by the strikers. Some Of
the idle freight handlers congregated at the
street corners near the wharves. but did
not attempt to interfere with the
workmen. The superinssndents and their
assistants were busily engaged in supervising
the work, and paid little attention to the
strikers A few policemen stood along
Front street. between Noble and Willow,
but their services were not required, and. in
deed, their presence at that point had no bear
ing upon the strike. At Noble street all the
men were at work to-day. The freight WAS
handled without trouble, and the men seemed TO
be thoroughly familiar with the work Nearly 200
men applied for work this morning, but the
freight agent could give place to only few.
The applications, however, were placed on fls.
The Willow-street wharves presented q
busy scene. The men were at work, and the
business was going il no strike had oc-
CURED. There was no lack of labor, and Freight
Agent Spare had to turn away large number
of men. He had no work for them because tho
places of the strikers had already been filed.
The officials in charge at Port Richmond enter
tain no fears of trouble with the strikers, and
say work is running as smoothly though no
strike had taken place.
During the afternoon, General Manager Mo.
Laod received telegraphic information from Su-
perintendent Whiting to the effect that there is
a considerable division of opinion among the
miners, and that they are far from being unit
in their disposition to obey the orde. to strike.
The impression prevails that there will be moro
mines in operation to morrow than there are
day. The railroad general manager says that
he has more men at work on the main line
to-day than he had Yesterday.
