Progress.

H5ihoyen and the positions in it's neighbor-

NO EFFECT IN ST. PAUL,
Little Change in Situation at the Stock
Yards.

ST. PAUL. Mimi. July 25-The allied
trades in the South st. Paul stock yards
district have as yet received no Instructions
to go upon a sympathetic strike in aid of
the butcher workmen. Such an order would
have little effect. the one hundred or
more men employed in allied trades are not
uEionized. and probably not more than ~
per cent of them would be affected.
The situation at the South st. Paul stock
yards shows little change today. The plant
OF Swift e. Co. is being operated on about
the same scale as during the latter part OF
last week. and no violence has been at
tempted by the strikers.
