PACKERS REFUSE STRIKERS
PLAN.
Proposition Of Union Rejected and
Counter Proposals Submitted.

Proposition Of Union Rejected and
Counter Proposals Submitted.
The strike which has demorallzed
the packing industry throughout the
country has not yet been settled. but
there are indications that 1t will soon
end by the adjustment of the difficul.
ties by arbitration.
At conference in Chicago between
representatives of the packers and
members of the union, the unions pro-
posals were practically rejected,
counter proposition being presented.
The hitch in the negotiations is over
the reinstatement of the strikers. The
union demands that every one who
went on strike shall be given his old
place before an agreement to arbitrate
will be considered. The packers de-
clare that they will retain the men
they have employed since the strike
and will take back the old men in the
order in which they file applications
for their old positions.
