The fact that many of the new men
In the works are negroes has infuriated
the strikers against this class of the
population, and negro's life is in dam
ger pretty near anywhere outside the

were fulfilled J, Thomas Taggart,
of Indiana. was ected chairman of
the Democratic national e-smmittee. In
dorsed by nearly every Democrat Of
the committee the day after the con-
vention adjourned at st. Louis it has
been known ever since that only the
decree Of Judge Parker in favor of
some other man, or the consent Of Sen
ator German to accept the place could
prevent the selectionof Taggart. Meth
er of these contingencies arose, and
the Indiana man was unanimously
chosen to a place for which he long
has had aspirations.
Opposition to the Last Moment.
Although the vote was unanimous it
was not until after it was actually in
progress that opposition to Taggart's
selection was withdrawn. Up to the
moment when the committee was
called to order the strongest possible
effort was made to bring German into
the field or to arrange a combination
that would place some Onebesides Tag
CART at the head of the committee. But
nothing could change the determina-
ton of his friends to force an election
and compel show of strength. Fail
ing to secure the necessary conditions
to defeat Taggart the opposition yieid
ed and the proceedings of the commit
tee We're brief and harmonious.
Arranged for Managing Committees.
The NEST important action of the
committee aside from the section of a
chairman was that of arranging for
committee or committees to manage
the campaign. These committees are
to be appointed by sTaggart, to be
headed by vice chairman, also appoint
ed by Taggart, one committee to be
executive, the other on finance. to con-
sist of not less than three nor more
than five members each, and if Tag
CART concludes to amalgamate them
the amalgamated committee is not to
consist of more than seven members;
but then the membership of the ex-
ecutive committee may be increased il
it and Taggart things it advisa bic, and
the new members may be taken from
outside the national committee.
Taggart's Immediate Plans.
Taggart will doubtless be chairman
of the executive committee, as that
Is the custom. The plans Of Chair
man Taggart for the next few days in
clude the trip to Esopus today, re-
turning to New York this evening. He
expects to spend tomorrow in this city
consulting with a number Of promi-
nent Democrats regarding the compo-
sition of the committees he is author
lied to appoint. Tomorrow evening or
Friday he will leave for Indiana, but
will return almost Immediately, an
nounce the committees, establish head
quarters and enter upon active cam,
paign work.

Him-views of q Nestor of

indianapolis, July pa boom for
Thomas Taggart for Democratic NOM
inee for governor has been started
here. While Taggart refuses to COM
NIT himself on the subject, some of his
friends have started the boom, and the
man who is anxious to be chairman
of the Democratic national committee
may find himself forced into the race
for governor.
Walter Evans, of Noblesville, the
most influential Democrat i'm Hamil-
ton county, and one of the Nestors
of the party in Indiana, said: 1.-The
Hamilton county delegation to the
state convention on Aug. will vote
for Tom Taggart for the nomination
for governor. He is by all odds the
man for the Democrats to nominate.
The effect Of Taggart's nomination
would almost be miraculous. 1t would

Chicago Packers Say the Battle
Is on Now and He Will Win
Who Can.
RIOTS BECOMING FREQUENT
Union Leader Would DO Some More
Negotiating77Teams Stopped
at the Yards and Forced,
Protesting, to Turn
Back.

Chicago, July 27.-The packers have
abandoned thoughts of peace and are
preparing for a struggle to the end.
Barney Cohen, president Of the State
Federation of Labor, announces that
he will seek another conference with
the packers. The supposition is that
he is inspired by high labor leaders
who want settlement of the strike.
and the first move Of these forces was
directed against wagons filed with
meat. At least twenty of the big wag-
-ons were stopped and compelled to
turn back. The teamsters protested
that they had not yet been ordered out,
but their arguments were of no avail.
Packing Houses Are Running.
Despite the strike, the packing
houses are running, after a fashion.
Large numbers of non-union men are
being received, some of them being
skilled workmen. The packers assert
that this force will be increased, from
day to day, until the normal number
is reached. The packing concerns have
made contracts for electrical power
and. if necessary. will be independent
of their engineers and firemen, al
though the steam powerplants are run
ming with non-union help now.
Rioting Has Started in Earnest.
Riots are started continually along
the boundaries of the stock yards. Al
most hourly reports of men who had
been beaten into insensibility and of
women chased by strikers or knocked
down in the streets reached the police.
The only persons punished so far for
turbulence are twelve negro non-union
employees of the yards, who visited sa-
looms along Ashland avenue and Hal
stead street after midnight. and then
fired their revolvers in the air. They
We're fined $25 each by Justice Fitz-
gerald. They pleaded for leniency, but
the fact that they had aroused the
entire police force stationed at the
yards and caused agitation among the
strikers initiated against them.
Attack on Bread Wagons.
Before the drivers CT four Heissler
& Junge bakery wagons loaded with
bread reached the stock yards score
of pickets swarmed over the seats and
pleaded with the drivers to turn back.
The drivers refused, and at Exchange
avenue and Halsted street the mob
tore them from their seats. The wag-
0ns were partly demolished and the
bread scattered in all directions. After
emptying the wagons the strikers told
the drivers they could drive back to
the firms headquarters. This they did,
although the wagons were in bad con-
dition.

Offer Made by the Packers Refused Consid.
Grafton by Donnelly.
At the conference between the rep
resentatives of the teamsters and the
packers the latter were asked to con-
cede that the first peace agreement,
signed last Wednesday, and which was
later repudiated by the strikers when
a second strike was called. be con-
sidered null and void. and that the
packers submit new proposition for
peace terms. The committee also noti-
fed the packers that the striking butch
ers would stand by last Saturdays de
mand, which was that all men be rein
stated within ten days, or their cases
be submitted to immediate arbitration;
all butchers and casing men to be
taken back within forty-eight hours
after work was resumed.
The packers offered to change the
time Of reinstating all the strikers from
forty-five to thirty-five days. They
made no concessions other than this,
and this proposal was submitted to the
allied trades committee. President
Donneliy, of the butchers union, how
ever. refused to consider the proposal,
and all hope Of an immediate settle
ment was lost. President Golden, of
the teamsters' unon, strongly urged
that the proposition be considered, and
that another effort for settlement be
made. The sentiment of the meeting
was overwhelmingly against him, how
ever, and the committee adjourned
without intending to arrange any more
meetings with the packers.
After falling In the peace negotia-
tions President Golden, of the team
sters' union, notified the members Of
the Internal tional committee of the
teamsters' union that his efforts to
bring about peace had been unsuccess-
full, and asked their sanction for SYM

All Those Employed by the Packing
= Houses Are Striking.
The sympathetic strike at the stock
yards is complete today. The belated
sanction to the teamsters joining their
brother workmen in the general strike
was given last night by the officers of
the International Teamsters' union, and
the 200 drivers employed in the pack
ing industry in Chicago quit work. This
means that when a wagon containing
meat to deliver to the retailers any
where in town leaves the stock yards
there will be riot all along the line.
1t is also stated that officers of the
international Teamsters' union have
issued orders calling out all teamsters
in the employ Of the big packing COM
panies at Kansas City, st. Louis and
Boston.
The packers announce that. they have
1000 new men at work. With all the
union workmen out on strike the only
additions to the ranks of the strikers
are about 100 teamsters VINO quit Work
as individuals, preferring to do this
rather than wait for an Official order
to walk out, and the mattresses in the
restaurants at the stock yards con-
trolled by the packing companies.
When Swift's mattresses struck some
of the stenographers in the general Of
fees offered to do the work, and when
the superintendent tried to reinforce
these by asking others to help fifty
women stenographers walked out of
the building in anger.
The union organizations recalled
their ultimatum prohibiting their mem
bers employed in the independent
plants from killing live stock purchased
IN the stock yards, where the animals
are being handled by non-union en-
ployes. The labor leaders took this
step after the Independent packers had
pointed out to them that If such an or
der was carried out it would be bene-
fit to the big packers.

ago warrant was issued for the arrest
of MIR. Burner and George Reif on a
charge of stealing steer belonging to

George could not be found. The coun-

finally dismissed 1t at the cost of Bar

was no evidence against the young men
