Discharge of a Foreman Causes Several
Thousand Mon to Quit Work.


INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. 2.-All the organized
workers in the hot mills" OF the Indiana tin
plate plants went on a strike to-day. and
It is believed here that the strike will become
general and include ali the tin plate plants Of
the country. The strike is directed particularly
against certain rules OF the American Tin plate
Company. which now includes nearly all the
plants. The trouble originated at Elwood.
where Foreman Evans was discharged for the
alleged reason that he had brought beer into
the factory. Evans denied the charge and said
that he was discharged because he favored the
enforcement OF the new State law which re-
auiros ON ployers to pay their men each week
instead OF once in two weeks.
The union took No his grievance and ordered
all employees to quit work. and this was done
to-day. Evans has long been prominent as a
labor leader among tho tin plate workmen and
some OF his fellow laborors believe him to be the
victim OF an unjust charge. Several thousand
