Chicago, May 2s.-H the four great
packing concerns at the Union stock
yards shall not yield to the demands
Of the striking teamsters within .
short time 1t may result in gen.
eral stoppage of 10000 employees at
the yards. The situation is becom-

will be impossible for the union men
to remain at work much longer with
out violating the rules of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, under
which they hold charters.
A strike among the beef butchers
or hog butchers or any other set Of
men, upon whom hundreds Of others
are dependent, would cause a COM
plete tie-up in every branch. This
Ia said to be not unlikely, because,
in many instances union men have
been asked to do the work Of the
strikers and have been discharged
upon refusing Furthermore, union
men are forbidden to handle goods
that have been prepared by non
union labor and it Is said to be near
ly impracticable for the men to con-
tinue without doing this.
Conferences between several Of
the firms and representatives Of tho
union were held yesterday afternoon
in an effort to adjust the trouble,
but the packers refused to concede
any of the demands of the strikers.
