KOHLsAAT LOCEs EN- OUT


Chicago, May 19.-All the bake
shops connected with the K0hlsaat
lunch rooms and the wholesale bakery
operated by the same company have
been closed The bakers had voted to
walk out in sympathy with the col
ored walters, and to forestall this move
ment the company decided to lock out
its employees. Office men, drivers, en-
gineers, firemer scrubwomen, laundry
Girls, and all other persons on the pay
rolls of the concern are out of work.
The tie-up is complete, and it seems
that both sides have settled down for
a long drawn-Cut fight.
Laundry owners in many parts of
the city assembled their workers and
attempted to influence them to desert
the union. In every case reported the
effort was failure. The Capital
laundry, 1888 Twelfth street, and the
Waite Hand laundry, Forty-seventh
street and Langley avenue, opened
with union employees. This makes thir
ty-three laundry owners that have
signed the union scale.
Five hundred blacksmiths' helpers
stuck to compel their employers to
accept a wage scale. after having re-
fused to accept recommendation by
a committee of their number to sub
NIT their differences to arbitration.
Nearly as many blacksmiths are also
said to have followed in sympathetic
strike The whole business is said to
be a violation Of an agreement.
Another strike of Chicago gas work
ers is imminent. At und0n meeting
1t was decided to send a committee to
demand the reinstatement Of 1873 dis
charged strikers. whom the arbitration
board last week refused to order rein
stated. The committee received in
structions to secure an immediate an
swer or call strike.

says that the postal clerks of the
United States have a very unique
claim against the United States post
office department for actual and nec-
essary expenses while on duty in each
of their respective runs, and that no
clerk while in service has ever been
paid fo- these expenses.
The claim is based upon the follow

tffations:
Section 1899, article IL = Chief
clerks and railway postal clerks shall
be paid their actual and necessary ex-
penses while actually travelling on
business of the department and away
from their designated headquarters" !"
The claim will amount TO something
like $14,000f-e0.
