BUTCHERS STRIKE AT OMAHA.
The Situation Growing More Serious
Hourly.

OMAHA, Aug. 2.-The situation in
South Omaha grows more serious hourly.
Five hundred men, including all the la
borers around the packing houses, have
quit work to-day in sympathy with the
butchers. At $50 o'clock the tiercemen
at Swift's walked out.
They were met on the platform by
Manager Foster, who talked to them for
a few minutes. He asked the men what
wages they were getting. They said
81 70 day. Isn't that all your scale
calls for?" asked MIR. Foster, and the
men admitted that it was. He finally in
duced the men To 60 back to work There
was crowd Of strikers on the railroad
track watching the fellows, and when
they started TO go back the men on the
outside began TO cry out, 'ScabW A
little later the same tiercemen went out
in body, and hurriedly left the plant.
AT hammond the cellar men went out
after working an hour this morning. The
beef-luggers and smokehouse men
worked until noon and then walked out.
The Sheriff was called on for deputies
this morning, as the situation began to
grow serious, but he refused to interfere,
as he did not think the circumstances
warranted it.
Some OF the houses have extensive con-
tracts on hand, which will compel them
TO begin running full force in the very
near future. The strikers know this and
have hopes of winning their point for
that reason, but it is now a settled fact
that the managers have made ali the con-
cessions they propose 10, and after Mon
day will give employment to men who
are willing TO work, regardless of the old
force.
sz The strikers declare that if the packers
do not meet their terms by Saturday they
will regret it.

In addition to the lumber yards, the

The fire tonight was between two
loading slips for vessels. n high wind
was blowing and the flames ia a few
minutes were beyond the control of the
firemen and began rapidly to travel
south. The fire boats ran up and the
engines devoted their attention for the
most part to protection of adjoining
