Chief of Police Donahue has ordered
that persons arrested for rioting shall
not be released on bond until after
their hearing. Chief Donahue says a
meetingof teamsters was held Wednes-
day night at which it was decided to
adopt "forcible measures" If neces-
sary. This, President Crews, of the
transfers union, denies absolutely
and says union men have been warned
that they viii. not receive protection
when arrested for violence. The situa-
ton seems to be more strained than
at any time since.
Later in the day four strikers who
were pointed cut to the police as hay
ing been concerned in disturbances
were arrested. They were locked up.
Sheriff Power yesterday appointed
twenty additional deputies and turned
them over to the chief of police.

New York Employers Meet to Prepare 4
Fight Against Organized Labor.


New York Employers Meet to Prepare 4
Fight Against Organized Labor.
New York. May 16.-The first steps
towards effecting a general organiza-
ton of employers in the building tiades
for the purpose of Offering united re-
sfstance to the demands of the labor
unions were taken at meetings held in
Manhattan and Brooklyn. The meet
ing in Manhattan was held at the
Building Trades club, 700 employers
being present and the throng being SO
great that overflow meetings We're held
in the various assembly rooms of the
club. ISL
The meeting was in private and at
its close a statement was given out
to the effect that The complete pa
ralysis of the building industry has
been brought about by irresponsible
combinations acting through tyran-
meal board CT walking delegates, or
business agents. which demands
prompt and energetic action by all
good citizens. The delegate
is parasite on the body public to be
exterminated. This is not a
question of wages or hours. but ques-
ton of whether the irresponsible bodies
of men are to be permitted TO conduct
the business of the employer and in
SO doing make it impossible for him to
execute his contracts and to discharge
the obligations and responsibilities
which he assumes and to which the
courts and the law of the land bind
him."
1.-The speakers pointed out the fail
ure of justice in the past TO punish
violence, the brutality of assaults. the
damage to property ana the murders
committed in the name of labor which
have gone unpublished. They asked
that political ambition should not be
permitted TO pervert justice"
a committee was appointed to de-
wise ways and means for fighting or
ganized labor as now managed, and
movement was started to organize
central body of employers. kilograms
were received from similar movements
i'm Chicago. St Louis, Pittsburg, Phila
delphia, Boston and Washington In
Brooklyn 100 employers met and
formed the Employers League, of the
borough of Brooklyn. 1t was resolved
to permit 10 interference with bust
ness by any individuals or organiza-
tons. and that no walking delegates
should be permitted to enter any shop
during working hours.

That 1, the UItimatum OF the Laundry
men at Chicago.

1900
Chicago. May 1.-THE offer of the
Laundry Owners association TO arbi-
'trate the laundry strike has been re-
fused by President Wilson, of the
Laundry Workers union. Wilson, in q
letter TO the Chicago board of arbitra-
ton. which lad been asked by the
owners association to try to effect a
settlement of the difficulty, stated that
the strikers would never consent to
arbitration until the employers agreed
to discharge all nOn-union employees.
The owners positively refused to do
this, claiming that such step on their
part would be unconstitutional. This
part of the demands of the strikers
has been stumbling block to set
Element of the strike for the past week.
The Record-Herald says: "A move
ment has been begun by the manage
ments of Chicago railroads to compel
labor organizations to agree to sub
NIT differences to arbitration whenever
negotiations between roads and en-
ployes fail to end in agreements. The
lead in the movement is apparently
being taken by the Rock Island, the
Burlington, and one or two other
strong western lines. Thus far, how
ever, the proposition observation-disclosures
arbitration has been either refused or
lodged by the labor organizations"
The state board Of arbitration is
here, but so far has been able to do
nothing toward ending any of the
strikes. which are progressing with
success in one thing, at least-the clos
ing up of the plants.
