graphical Union Looking for Trou-
ble-Wiser Heads Avert Strike.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 13.-The
members Of the international Typo
graphical Union had narrow escape
from being embroilet in the fock-outs
and strikes so general in the other
trades Throughout the country. The
president of the International Typo
graphical Union, Samuel b. Donnelly'
returned here recently from a trip to
Kansas City and having learned while
there that the Typothetae, the employ
ing printers organization, was giving
aid to Its Kansas City membership in
their fight with the Kansas city union.
Mr.. Donnelly is said to have called the
executive council Of the l. II. u, to-
gether and advocated the calling out Of
the job printers employed by members
of the Typothetae in all the large cities.
Mr.. Donnelly's colleagues repudiated
his propositions by a vote Of four to
one, and It is said that resolutions Sc
verely censurlng President Donnelly in
connection with the Pittsburgh ana
Kansas City troubles Of the orGaniza-
ton were adopted. and policy govern
Ing the future management of the af-
fairs of the organization was declared
for more in keeping with the past his
tory of the international Typographical
Union. 1t is said that Mr.. Donnelly was
insistent that general strike in the
book, Job and newspaper offices of Chit
cago would be in order. When met
with the statement of one of his col
leagues that the printers would be
beaten in two days, he is reported to
have said:
"Weif let US give them a whirl any
way, at least in the newspaper Offices"
The council is said to have vigorously
overruled its chief executive and the
printers are not likely to become In
vulved in the general labor troubles.
