In consequence. the referee question may
have TO be settled by letter OF by some
agreement other than q personal conference
between the men.
Corbett has dropped boxing in his train

Tomorrow.

Delegates from the St. Louis Brewery
Workers Union and representatives Of the

ports were circulated yesterday that q

neers. Firemen and Oilers
otto +. Stifel. president OF the 81. Louis
Brewing Association. said last night: The
men are making new demands, and they ara
complicated. Some Of their terms cannot
b. complied with.
w have told them that We are willing
to reduce their hours from nine 70 eight In
the summer and double the force. and We
have made other concessions. but some OF
their wants are utterly out OF the question.
The drivers demands are reasonable
continued MI. Stifel. and also the brew
erz's and malters's: but the oottlers want
more than / can ever grant The add to
their demands the supply OF beer. stipulat-
ing quantity, quality and times II Is TO be
The Iaborers want certain work which is
entirely out OF their province
Engineers and hremen want q two

Mr.. Sufel stated that the conference OF

Future contracts VIII be made for three
years duration. II an agreement can be
reached TO this end
John G~ehbauer. secretary OF the Beer
Bottlers' Union. was seen last night at a
meeting OF the representatives Of the vari-
Gus unions at Brewers and MaltSerS hall
and stated that under no circumstances
would there be a strike before the Wednss
day conference. There Is also to be a mass
meeting OF the employees. when the matter
will be discussed. As no power has been
delegated By the dissatisfied men to their
conference representatives. II Is probable
that the mass meeting will be held to-day,
in order that the labor confe-ees may have
definite plans and a settlement may be
reached without pTotraction. In the event
OF a strike more than $3.50 men would be
involved.
