TRANSFERS WILL QUIT
Officers of the International
Body Sanction WalkOut in
Sympathy With Butchers

CHICAGO, July &c. - The sympa-
thetic strike at the stockyards viii be
completed tomorrow morning. The
belated sanction 10 the teamsters join
ing their brother workmen in the gem
eral strike was given tonight by the
officers Of the International Teamsters'
Union, and the drivers employed in
the packing industry in Chicago will
quit work tomorrow. Nearly 100 or
these men struck to-day Of their own
voliuon, refusing TO wait for an off,
cisl order notifying them that the SYM
pathetic strike was indorsed.
While an attack was being made on
colored strike breakers as they were
leaving the stockyards tonight. John
Stokes, one OF the strikers, was shot
and mortally wounded by one OF the
negroes Stokes, together with fully
100 companions, IL IS said, rushed upon
the negroes and one OF the latter drew
g revolver and fired into the crowd,
hitting Stokes. The police were close
at hand and succeeded IN scattering
the rioters after much difficulty.
During another riot within a hundred
feet Of the same place and less than an
hour after the one in which Stokes was
shot, q negro strike breaker was shot
and killed. The rioter escaped before
the police arrived on the scene and il
shooting.
Little II any advantage was gained
by either side In the strike to-day and
there was no hope tonight Of any i'm
mediate settlement. Realizing that
they have one Of the hardest PROPOSE
lions 70 contend with in the history Of
the packing industry, the packers are
leaving nothing undone to gain the up
per hand. All day long wOrkmen from
outside points were rushed TO Chicago
and taken TO the stockyards TO I'LL the
places Of the strikers. Tonight it was
announced by the packers that 1000
new men were now installed in the diff
ferent plants at the stockyards. With
these new men and with the arrivals
that are expected each day the packers
expect 10 get their affairs into such
shape that the strikers will be COM
PEELED TO seek a truce.
Although the receipts Of livestock to-
day were small compared with receipts
on corresponding days under normal
conditions, stiu many cattle, hogs and
sheep were left in the pens tonight

Mothers should always keep in good

children. Yet it is no unusual sight to

symptoms of a consumptive tendency.
And why should this dangerous con-
dition exist, dangerous alike to mother
and child, when DR.. Boschee's German
syrup would put stop to it at once?
No mother should be without this old
and tried remedy in the house-for its
timely use will promptly cure any lung,
throat or bronchial trouble in herself
or her children. The worst cough or
cold can be speedily cured by German
Syrup, so can hoarseness and congestion
