One Clash at Picket Line Today

Otherwise Quiet
There was one clash today between
the re-established pickets at South st.
Paul and the men employed in the
Swift plant. The line was formed
early in the morning around the main
entrance and some of those who en-
tered were aecosted.
When Gus Heuer sought to pass in
at the gate he was engaged in dispute
by John Seymour, a striker assigned
to picket duty. Hot words passed be-
tween them and finally the men came
to blows. Seymour was arrested and
taken to Hastings, the county seat,
for trial. "a
The claims made yesterday by the
strikers that a number of employees
would leave the plant, were not borne
out. A, numb Der Of, the men who left
last night did not return this morning,
but this is usually the case on Thurs
day, for the men are paid off Wednes-
day evening. TheHeompany said today

they say, do no teaning, but will force
their retail butchers to come with
wagons to take away purchases. This
change is explained in the following
statement issued today by the pack
ers:
1.-THE packers have for some time
been seriously considering the ques-
ton Of putting Chicago on the same
basis as New York and other eastern
cities and to do no further teaming.
To add to their large coolers at the
stockyards they have number Of
branches conveniently located in all
hardship on the market proprietors to
send their wagons for their pur-
chases."
So much non-union help has been
taken into the stockyards up to date
that the packers in some instances are
said to be finding difficulty in putting
the men to work. Nelson Morris &
shipped fifty non-union men to st.
Joseph and 100 others were sent by
other packers to Omaha. Sixteen al
legged union butchers from Detroit
arrived at the yards today to take
the places of strikers.
Hanging In Effigy.
( Hanging of effigies was the sprinci-.

Not to be outdone by the heads Of
departments at the packinghouses,
Miss Anna Rheinhardt, an Armour &.

her services would be more valuable

operator.
