MEAT TRANSFERS STRIKE.
A Beef Shortage in Chicago May Be the
Result.

A Beef Shortage in Chicago May Be the
Result.
Chicago, May 26.-The wagon drivers
employed by the stock yards packers to
deliver meat to the various distributing
houses struck at midnight. The men
demand more money and overtime for
all work over ten hours. Should the
packers prove obdurate the teamsters
declare they Will see that the strike
spreads to include the men who carry
the meat from the distributing houses
TO the retail markets. In that case a
shortage of meat will be felt in every
district in the city atsonce and meat
famine, something unknown in the
city's history, may follow if the strug-
gle is protraoted
Last night the heads of the various
raclling houses refused to discuss the
latest struggle on their hands. The
trouble began in the afternoon at .
meeting of Packing House Transfers
local union. No. 10, at Forty seventh
street and Princeton avenue. The COM
mite appointed by the teamsters to see
the various packers reported that they
We're not given even the privilege of
seeing the interior of the offices of the
majority of their employers. j. Ogden
Armour and representative of Libby,
Mcneil e Libby admitted them, but
declined absolutely to have any confer
ence. The others refused to recognize
them in any way.
Finding it impossible to present their
employers with their grievances the
committee reported that the only way
TO
strike. This the union decided should
be done at once, and President John
Never and Business Agent George f..
Golden were authorized to call out all
the men they could reach at midnight.
Every man employed as packing
house teamster will be called out this
morning.
The strike Immediately affects 526
men, who are members of the union.
They are receiving 16 to % cents an
hour for driving from one to eight
horses They demand 221a to S21s cents
an hour and pay for all time over ten
hours.
These men often work from ! o'clock
in the morning until 4 and in the af-
ternoon distributing meat" said Secre-
tary T. L. Turley of the National Team
sters union. "rhey have been getting
poor pay serving the public with fresh
meat promptly. but now they mean to
receive some recognition 1t is impos-
sible to say to what extent the strike
will spread, for the men will not give up
without a bitter struggle. Nearly every
man driving n team engaged in the dis
tribution of meat belongs to the Or
ganiza ton, so the trouble may spread to
those distributing meat among the
markets."

for various purposes. l made the estl-
mates from what it actually cost Iowa
at the Chicago exposition. The COM
mission made some changes and added
a little here and there. But ! feel that
in general we should do whatever is
done well and not any halfway work
about it. For instance, if we find that
we can not make a good exhibit in one
branch, or can not eXpend the money
necessary for q tirst-class exhibit. we
should cut it out entirely. Do few
things well rather than try to do a
great many things and have none of it
done well. But the commission has not
yet been called together and L received
my commission just the other day, so l
am not ready to discuss plans for the
work of the Iowa commission
Eugene Secor of Forest City, who
was at the head of the committee on
horticulture in the Legislature, is of the
opinion that after the commission is or
Ganized and the plans laid it will be
proper 10 select different persons to
look after special exhibits, as a superin-
tendent of live stock, one in charge of
manufactures. etc. These division SUI
perintendents can supplement the work
done by the commission and assist in
carrying out the plans.
Professor r. c. Barrett, state super
intendent of public instruction, is
greatly Interested in the educational
exhibit. "rhe fact that the commits.
sion has two years in which to do all
it's work" he said, "does not mean that
the work should be put off another year
before a beginning is made. On the
contrary, it is possible TO do many times
more work with the appropriation by
having the longer time than it would
have been possible on short notice. The
educational exhibit should be planned
for at once. The plans should be well
laid and they should be laid before the
educators and the school men of tho
state at an early date. BY so doing q
great deal can be done at comparative
ly little cost to the state; and Iowa
ought to have the finest educational ex-
hibit at st. Louis that has ever been
got together. We can do it and ought
to do it,
]. c. Simpson, secretary of the state
agricultural department, said: The
st. Louis commission will have the
hearty cooperation of the agricultural
department in the matter of arranging
for Iowa's exhibit of agriculture and
live stock. We believe Iowa should sur
pass them al at st. louis and can do
so. We are ready to help in every way
possible"
The commission has not yet been
called together for organization.
