Is THE END NEAR?
One of the Foundries Withdrawn From


One of the Foundries Withdrawn From
the Association.
As predicted yesterday, there are many
things tending to indicate that the strike of
the iron-molders and core-makers, which
began on March 8, 1890, is nearing a termi-
nation in favor of the strikers, and, in con-
nection Herewith, the molders were elated
over piece of cheering news received yes
terday.
1t was that the firm of Steiger & Kerr.
proprietor5 of the Occidental Foundry, had
sent IN their designations to the Manufact-
urers' and Machinists' Association. That
association, which has made such a stub
born fight against acceding to the demands
OF the strikers, and has expended thousands
OF dollars in the importation of non-union
moders from the East, held a special meet
ing yesterday and accepted the resignation.
The withdrawal of the Occidental Foundry
from the association means that it has de-
cided to comply with union regulations, and
a molder stated last night that by Tuesday
there would be a full union crew in the
foundry. About twenty molders and three
or four core~makerS are usually employed
there.
Neither President Valentine of the Mold
ers' Union nor Mr.. Kerr would make any
statement when questioned last night in
reference to the new phase which the long
standing strike had taken. 1t is q fact,
however, that the first break in the ranks of
the 10undrymen is a cause of great rejoicing
on tue part OF the strikers, and they are
now more confident than ever of soon
achieving complete victory
