the circumstances. ALI the members were
notified to that effect and Immediately they
arrived in Chicago. They were in session to-
day, but later they decided to 20 to Omaha
with the meeting. General Secretary Hayes
assumed the leadership of the board as
soon as he reached Chicago and i'm
posed upon all the injunction to

might prove the basis for a warrant in the
Federal courts. When asked il they were
in fear of arrest by the Federal authorities
the men declined to answer.

strikers in better control, however and kept
Florence avenue, along which they escorted
those who had been at work, clear of the
crowd. The crowd was composed principally
Of women and children. who yelled and
hooted and threy occasional clods Of earth,
sticks and stones
