Dickinson, of American counsel, con-

QUIT WORK.
75 Big Printing Establishments
Partially Crippled.
Guards Hired to Take the
Places Vacated.

Chicago, Oct. Big printing estab-
lishments here were partially crippled
today by the refusal of members of
Franklin union No. 4, press feeders, to
go to work in houses controlled by the
Chicago Typothetae. Given the choice
of Horeswearing allegiance to their union
or losing their positions, a majority of
the feeders failed to report for work.
This was the situation as reported from
IS firms today.
Former members of the union who an
nouneed that they had renowned the
union were allowed to go to work There
are said to be approximately 5000 press
feeders in Chicago. 1880 of whom were
members of the Franklin union, which
is not affiliated with any other labor or
ganization. In many shops where the
union men failed to report for duty
guards were hired to take their places.
