Decide to strike.
BAKERS DECIpR TO. STRIKE.

CHICAGO, ILL, april IA strike
among union bakers has been decided
upon. Probably tomorrow morning
the men will quit work. The cause OF
the trouble is exactly similar to that
which led to the brewers strike. The
bakers belong to the Genital LABOR Union,
as 90 the brewers. The Boss Bakers
Union signed an agreement with their
workmen as to wages and hours CT work,
| agreeing also to recognize the Union as q
Union. Some weeks ago they met and
determined to have nothing further TO do
win the Union, and began to hire non
union men.
| A FAILURE.
CHICAGO, ILL, April 1.-THE brewers
strike is rapldIy fzz,ing out. Nsw men
are arriving in large numbers to take the
places OF the strikers and it Is thought
| thst by tonight all vacancies that now
exist will be filled. No trouble has been
experienced with the strikers, sud all &C.
counts OF rhicts occurring were ground
less. The members CT the strikers press
committee would give no reA-
son why the English branch OF
the Union refused to stop
work. TnIs refusal of the English
speaking brewers and maltsters was re-
garded By the strikers as their arst midi
Cstion Of weakness an creates feeling
OF dependency. The E0glish branch of
the Union comprises the most coneerYs-
tive Members, who look st matters in an
entirely different light from the radical
members and, while perhaps they feel IS
strongly as their German brothers aboat
the so-calleQ grievances, the members do
not see their way clear to winning the
contest and therefore will not go out.
