RORSESHOERS STRIKE.
No Change Observable In the Situation.
PrsparIn Ing TO Open Cooperative Shops.

The strike OF the Journeymen horse
shoers' has had little change for a week
or more and matters seem to be at a
deadlock. The association remains stead
fast in It's stand against the union and
the efforts Of the committee appointed
by the Central Trades and Labor union
to effect a settlement have been fruit
less.
The committee spent two days in In
vestgating the situation and attempting
to effect a settlement, but the association
shops displayed surprising stubborness
and treated the committee with great M
difference.
The cooperative shops will be In opera
ton as soon as arrangements can he com
pleted and the Union hopes to arouse TIL
association from IL sindifference by max
ing inroads upon it's business and taking
away tho customers who will not patron
lie shops employing non-union labor.
The strikers assembled at headquarters
this morning for the daily roll call and
the best OF harmony was noticeable in
their ranks Union representatives
stated 90 The News representative that
they thought there would be no change in
conditions till tho co-orporation shops
were well underway. They were not in
cllned to I've optimistic and have not been
since the commencement OF the strike
though they have every confidence I'm
eventually winning out and receiving
their demands.
