Return TO Work

Kansas City. Mo-. Aug. 12.-The ma
chinists' strike inaugurated thirteen
weeks ago was declared off today by
the strikers and the men still out will
return to work as soon as their en-
pIoyers will take them back. -Four
hundred men struck for nine hours
work and ten hours pay. Half of this
number were given the increase, but
the larger shops held out, and the
strikers who return to work now will
go back at the old scale. The Riverside
Iron works, one of the biggest concerns
affected, recently secured an injunction
from the federal court against strikers
who had threatened men hired in their
places. Saturday last United States
District Judge Hook sent one striker to
prison for four months for attacking q
non-union worker.
