BUFFALO STRIKE AGAIN ON.
The Shovelers Claim Violation OF Agreement
City Completely Tied Up.

Buffalo. n. Y, May I5.-The dock
situation is worse, tonight. than at any
time since the opening of the season
The monthly men, the men who work
ed inside of the levators. are out and
have agreed to remain out till the grain
shovelers and freight handlers strikes
are settled. Tomorrow, every elevator
here Will be idle unless new men can
be secured to take the places Of the
monthly men, which is said to be i'm
probable, owing to the fact that it re-
quires considerable experience to oper-
ate the machinery of the elevators.
Bishop Quigley and the leaders of the
grain shovelers held a conference, to-
day, that lasted until 9 o'clock tonight.
The grain shovelers claimed that Mr.
COnnors had violated all the essential
provisions of the agreement that the
Lake Carriers Association had made
with the Union. The bishop summoned
many witnesses before him
At the conclusion of the conference
