yet to find the striker who can give a
reason for walking out.
while we are not running at our
full capacity here the Chicago plant of
the Swifts is killing 1900 hogs daily,
and is shipping out from fifty to seven
ty-fve carloads of dressed meat. This
does not look as though the strike
would be lost. At Kansas City the
workmen refused to obey the strike
order, with the result that our plant
there is running to it's full capacity.
There is really no danger Of meat

duty and compel the pickets to stop in
t1midation, this plant@w soon be pro-
ducing all of which it is capable. All
that We ask is that we be permitted
to engage men who are willing and
anxious to work for us, and that the
men be free from persecu ton"

fire which started in the Anderson
planning mill late yesterday afternoon
threatened for a time to destroy the
district in North Minneapolis, and be-
fore it was checked had almost Quilted
three plants with a total loss of over
$4,000
The Anderson mill is located at
Fourteenth avenue north and First
street, and the balance of the block is
occupied by the Fulton Libbey sash
and door factory and the w. W. John
son Lumber company as a storing
place for hardwood lumber. All of
these establishments suffered from the
fire, and had the flames reached the
store warehouse of the Libbey COM
pany, where most of their lumber is
stored, the loss would have gone well
into the thousands
The fire started in the boiler room of
the Anderson mill and had gained great
Roadway before the first alarm was
turned in. The fire soon reached the
sheds in which was stored all the
hardwood lumber of the w. w. john
son Lumber company, and second
alarm was turned in.
The loss to the Anderson building is
estimated at $500, and to the stock
$1,000. The Johnson company figured
their less in lumber at $4,000, but plae-
ed little value on the sheds. The Full
ton-Lfbbey Sash and Door company
lost 10000 feet of maple flooring.
which is valued at $1,460. The total
loss Is full covered by insurance.

Mixup at Kansas City

KANSAS CITY, July 16.-The first
violence reported since the strike be-
gan occurred tonight. A disturbance
in which stones and fists figured took
place as non-union Greek Iaborers
were leaving the Armour and Fowler
plants for their homes. The Greeks
met a crowd OF strikers, who attempt
ed to persuade them to quit work An
argument arose which resulted in a
fight. When the police hurried to the
scene the crowd had dispersed. Most
Of the participants in the disturbance
were foreigners, and the police were
unable to learn whether the stones
were thrown by union or nom union
men. No arrests were made. No one
was hurt. A nen-union man employ
ed at Fowler,s packing house reported
to the police tonight that he had been
struck in the face by union man as
he was leaving the place. Figures
given out by the packers show that
1909 cattle were killed In the various

Ihe matter went before the city council
and that body passed a separate paw roll
and directed the city treasurer to honor
the same AT the time Mr.. Hubert was

assistants to recognize the councils de-

monthly reports that the extra stipends
have been paid to the mayor and aldermen
without warrant and the same has

time he will be held liable. City Treasurer
Hubert has decided on taking the mat
ter into court himself and will honor the
orders no more, Or not until the matter

of Polish butchers were found to be
missing Investigation revealed that
they had returned to work.
A riot was precipitated at West
Forty-third street and Ashland by the
arrival of omnibuses which carried
stenographers to the office Of Swift &
Co., Nelson Morris & Co and the Ar
mour Packing company. Three men
were injured by the blows of officers
clubs. When the first vehicle was
driven UP to the sidewalk where the
young women were waiting for it a
strike sympathizer rushed from a sa-
loon and stood directly in the path of
the horses. The police commanded
the man to move on. The crowd gath
cred, and special policemen detailed at
posts near by fastened to the scene,
drew their clubs and charged the
crowd, which gave way. The leaders
retreated into q saloon and escaped
through a rear door.
Many Of the girls were so frightened
that they sought refuge in the saloons
which line ashland avenue at this
point, only to he driven out by the
threats of men drinking in the places.
Most of the young women We're found
and went ON their way in the omni-
buses.
A mass meeting of the trades unions
allied with the meat cutters and
butchers was held tonight at the
stock yards to discuss the advisability
of. going on sympathetic strike.
Twenty two unions were represented
with q total membership of about H.
600 men,. OF these unions nineteen
came to the meeting with instructions
to strike if the meat cutters and butch
erS asked them to do so.
The men now on strike did not ask
the allied unions to go out, but urged
them to remain at work until after the
return of President Donnelly to the city
on Monday, the union leader having
left the city tonight to visit st. Louis
and other points where the strike is in
progress. It was finally decided that
no action would be taken until after the
meeting of the Packing Trades Cen
trail body, a committee having general
jurisdiction over the unions of the
stock yards. The body will meet Mon
day night and will consider the ques-
ton Of a sympathetic strike. 1t was an
nounced tonight by members of the
Firemen's union that they will go to
the packers with an ultimatum on
Monday. They have grievances of their
own, they declare and they do not wish
to work with the non union men that
have been placed in the plants since
the strike.

MEAT DEALERS DENY
Big RAISE IN PRICES
Retailers Have Supply, but City
VIII Suffer if Strike
Continues

The man behind the appetite is be-
ginning to- protest velubly concerning
matters touching on and appertaininS
70 the present meat strike and its eff
Iect on prices.
When he goes into a meat shop to
purchase the piece de resistance of
the family menu he is confronted with
a line of prices that make his eyes
bulge out and his hand steal instinct
lively toward the resting place of his
trusty gatling gun.
At least that is what many Of the
consumers of meat say. and they
ought to know, for they have to buy
boosted
kets, however, tell quite a different
story Especially is this true of the
big downtown markets, where con-
siderable stocks of all kinds of pack
ing house products are kept constant
ly ON hand. These tradesmen say that
the only advances that they have been
forced to make so far on account of
the strike are in the fine cuts of pork
and higr-grade beef.
Pork Chops Up g Cents
GOrk cnOpS are up z cents or more
and ham is a cent higher all around.
Pork tenderloin, however, is cents
lower than it has been in a year, ac-
cording to one of the largest retailers
in the city, There also has been noted
horizontal raise in the prices of sir
loin, tenderloin and porterhouse steaks
amounting to . cents.
Lard. bacon and roast beef are at
the same level as last week
A prominent Wabasha street mar
ketmaBs gave the following explana-
ton of the situation for 7 h G l o e :
The only increases that we have
made so far have been in pork. We
make it a practice to buy our supply
of pork from day to day, as our trade
demands. Thus in order to continue
business without actual loss We have
had to raise the prices on that class of
meat.
We carry enough beef so that it
has not yet been necessary for us to
make additional purchases since the
strike commenced. but when we do it
will be necessary for us to raise beef
prices also. So far we have not put
up the price of beef L cent
If the strike continues over We'd
nesday it will cost something to eat
porterhouse.'
Changes in Price List
The manager of a large Seventh
street market furnished the following
figures, showing the advances ard
changes noted during the week in the
more ordinary kinds of meats:
