STRIKE Of THE
FREIGHT HANDLERS
II is Beginning to Look Like Very Serious
Proposition TO the Windy
City.
MERCHANTS LOSE HEAVILY
The Railroads Are Losing Over One Million Dollars
Day and the Wholesale Merchants Will Also Lose
Millions Of Dollars Unless the Strike Is Set
tied Soun-2O, 600 Men ldIs

Chicago, July 14.-The second week o
| the freight handlers strike began to
day and 10000 men are idle and shipping
| is at a standstill. President Curran o
| the Freight Handlers union, has ap
pointed committees to visit the variou!
railroads, but his proposition has beer
reversed from the original one. 1t is
further than ever from the ideas of the
railroad managers and no hope is eX-
pressed for a settlement to be made to-
day or even this week. The wholesale
houses have made practically no at
tempt to send out freight or receive it.
These big establishments are all closed
down. The strike has cost them hun
dreds of thousands of dollars already
and they take the stand that they will
lose millions, should the conditions
which obtained this morning con-
tinue. The loss in wages to the strik-
ing freight handlers and teamsters and
to the railroads and other lines of busi-
ness is roughly estimated at consider
ably over $1,00O,000 day. The situa-
ton is admittedly very grave.
THE STRIKE ENDED.
Pnueblo, July 1.-THE strike of the
Cooks and Walters union in this city
has practically come to an end in con-
sequence of the refusal of the butch
ers and bakers to come out in sympa-
thy. Nearly all the pickets We're arres-
ted and have been released under
bond.
UNDERPAID BAKERS STRIKE.
Chicago, July 14.-Five hundred bak-
ers of the Mcmahon Cracker and Bis
cult Company have struck today. The
strikers maintain that they are UNDER
paid.
CONFERENCES FAILED.
Chicago, July 14.--At 1:30 p. M,
President Curran of the Freight Hand
lers' union, gave out the statement in
which he said "All the conferences to-
day failed, although we sent commit
tees of their own men to the managers
as they requested Hereafter the man
ayers will have to confer with the Off
cials of the union. If they want to
waste 100000 a day over the question
of the half cent increase in wages,
we will let them try it,

novel 1t is said that the license was
procured in this city. and that the groom

To make the case of all the more In
