desert his post at the crossing OF the
Chicago and Alton tracks, although he
had a bullet in his thigh. Both Of the
wounded men were taken 10 the police

removed to a hospital. 1t was not SO
with Bloom.
"No; l must go back 10 my station"

To the remonstrance of the police,
he replied

from a freight car. He followed
them to the Archer avenue bridge,

Chicago. August 17.-Despite the

peace in the pRckinghouse strike were
far from reassuring today.
The packers, at a meeting held last
night in Swift & Co.'S offices. had a
committee to represent them at a con.
ference with the mayor, but today an
official Of one of the big cOmpany's
passed cold water on the enterprise,
declaring that there was nothing on
earth the mayor could do to bring
about a settlement The packers at

Donnelly said his reason was that al

Hog Butchers union. "And the hog
butchers are a great deal more fmpor

head of the strikers. Harrison was
