RESUME
strike IN the Brown IIoisting Compluy's
Worss.

Str4ke IN the brown ioisttng Compauy's
worss
CLEVELAND. o., Aug. 1.-The lockout
at the works o: the Brown Hosting
and Conveying Machine companys
works is again in force. Late Friday
the executive committee of the strik-
rrs held n meeting and declared the
strike on again. The locked out
men declare they will give the
Brown Co a fight to finish now.
There seems TO have been "a misunder-
standing of the terms of settlement
when the lockout was declared off
Monday. The company declares that
it is living up to the text of its agree
mcnt, while the men assert that il has
on several occasions violated il by hir-
ing new men, while a large number of
the old employees of the company were
on the books as applicants for their
old positions. After the meeting of the
executive committee the following
statement was issued:
I'm consideration of the Brown Co
having violated their contract with the
men and state board of arbitration, we,
as a body, feel ourselves exempt from
ali obligations to the company. The
demand, as at first presented, will now
be strictly adhered to-
The strikers are in an angry mood
and trouble is almost certain to come,
and the police will now use sterner
methods than those recently employed.
+. w. Buckingham, who shot over the
heads of a crowd of strikers on We'd
nesday, was pursued from the works
by strikers Friday. They threw stones
and he again used his revolver. No
one was hit, however. The police then
escorted him home.
