Yesterday AFTERNOON bne announce
ment was made that President Sam
uel Gompers OF the American Fedora
ton Of Labor has called a NEE ting OF
tha exacutiva hoard Of that associa-
tion 10 he held in this cftv on
rThursdav and that he vvould leave
Sarv Work FOR CHICAGO this
evening. In view of this, it
is not believed that the federated
trades Of Chicago will take rrecipitate
action before consulting with him. AS
at present Gompers cannot reach Chi
cago before Wednesday night, il will
~ irnnossible to decide on a line Of
action to be pursued before Thursday,
and probably if it should finally be re-
solved to declare a general strike Of
all these combined forces. it could not
be nut into effect before Friday morn
inr
In this connection. the interesting
u E
ident Gompers allows himself to be
hauled from New York to Chicago by
non-uriion ENGINEERS and fremen. his

Another feature to be noted in con-
nection with the meeting Of Chicago

meetino a large and influential con
