thought, will die. The dead are: Al

Styike OF StereOtypers.
Chicago. July 4.-No morning papers
were issued here Saturday. The trouble
arises from the demands made by the
stereotypers' union upon the publishers
at short notice. They were arbitrary
in the extreme, according 10 the views
of the publishers, and they stand
unit In the refusal to grant single
thing that was demanded. The stereo-
typers asked first that their hours of
labor be reduced from eight to seven
hours a day and wages increased from
1925 to $500 a day with 70 cents an
hour or fraction thereof for over time,
and that apprentices be confined TO one
for each Office.
The publishers, after understanding
the nature Of the demands and the
mandatory character of the way they
were put, decided unanimously to refuse
them. In consequence, it was agreed
by all at the meeting that no member
of the newspaper association would
make an attempt to get out paper
till all were in position to do so. There
