HIT BY LAKE STRIKE.
Chicago and West Facing Bushes.
Disaster From Tie-Up.


Chicago, May 13.-Chicago and the
west are menaced by great commercial
disaster in consequence of the tie-up
of lake commerce following the rejec-
ton by the Masters and Pilots asso-
citation of the wage offer made by the
Lake Carriers association. Any hope
that may have existed that the calam-
1ty would be averted was dispelled last
night when a report from the masters
and pilots at Cleveland said returns
from twenty-one of total of twenty
six harbors showed that the owners
propositions had been rejected by an
overwhelming majority
With no sign of weakening on either
side, the masters and pilots hold the
key to situation that will result in
the loss of employment to more than
10000 men for an indefinite period
and damage to business interests that
will mount into the millions.
The following table shows the result
OF the battle over the wage scale:
Capital tied up ....,..... $3.50, 100000
Men out of employment. 100000
Lake ports affected ..,..... SO
