BY UNANIMOUS VOTE.
Freight Handlers Reject the Offer Of
Railroad Officials.

Chicago, July 11.-By unanimous
vote the striking freight handlers have
refused the railroads terms and will
continue the strike despite the refusal
of the Chicago Federation of Labor
to help them.
This action was taken by Polk local
union, consisting OF men employed by
the Rock Island, Baltimore and Ohio,
Lake Shore, Nickel Plate, Great West
ern, Monon and Chicago Terminal
roads, and the Western local. compris-
ing men in the warehouses of the Bur
lington, Chicago and Northwestern, St..
Paul, Fort Wayne and Chicago and Al
ton roads. A thousand members were
present at the meeting.
President Curran of the freight
handlers union advocated accepting
the terms offered by the railroads and
returning to work to await an OppOr
tunity to retaliate upon the teamsters
union and the Chicago Federation Of
Labor. His proposition was entirely
lost in the excitement that followed
and by a standing vote the strikers
not only decided to stay out but to
fight to the last ditch without seeking
cooperation or support.
Following the meetings Of Polk and
Western locals a delegation of thirty
strikers visited the Burlington yards
and persuaded all the teamsters deliv
.ering or receiving freight, except those
of Marshall Field & Co., to drive away
with their work uncOmpleted. The
delegation then started for the Rock
Island yards. The action Of the team
sters is contrary to the orders of the
officials of their union.
At a meeting held later Healy local
union, to which belong Erie, Grand
Trunk Wabash and Chicago and East
ern Illinois WarehOuseman, voted to
continue the strike.
At 1890 the Northwest local, com
prising men from the st. Paul, Panhan-

Fifteen Men Injured at the Homestead
Steel Works..

Pittsburg July 11.-Fifteen men
were burned, one fatally and eight Sc,
riously. at the Homestead steel works
shortly after noon.
The accident occurred at furnace
No. 40, in hearth mill No. 8. A ladle
filed with molten metal was being
lowered into the pit when the drum OF
the crane broke and the seething metal
was thrown over the unfortunate men.
A panic followed and the men rushed
from the mill. many with their CLOTH
ing burning. Fortunately the work
men had their backs to the ladle when
it overturned. This saved them from
tnhaling the flames, which would have
been almost certain death.
