STRIKERS
STAND PAT
They Vote to Continue Strike
Indefinitely.
DONNELlY TALKS A6Aln
He Tells Why tho Cause Of the Union
Men Is Just-Admssions of
the Packers.

CHICAGO. Aug. 30.-Despite the ul-
timatum issued by the packers yes
terday, declaring that the strike was
ended SO far as they were concerned,
and refusing to meet the butchers ex-
ecutive board the strikers held a meet
ing early this morning and resolved to
continue the strike indefinitely. Presi-
dent Donnelly issued a statement to
the public. He declares that condi-
tiOns at the yards were ntolerable.
The packers refused to adjust differ
ences and the strike was forced upon
the wOrkmen. The admission of the
packers that they now intend to
change the working conditions is posi-
tive proof that the strikers cause Is
just. The end sought by the packers
is disruption of the union. which i'm
proved the moral condition of the
wOrkmen. The men are still standing
firmly for the principle involved and
have voted unanimously to continue
the strike until accorded an honorable
adjustment.
According to statements of packers
this morning over $50 union butchers
sought unemployment at the plants
today.
The strike conference committee
representing all the unions involved in
the strike this noon ratified the action
of the executive board in continuing
the strike. Strike leaders deny abSO-
lutely the reports emanating from the
packing house offices to the effect that
union men are seeking their old places.

Minnesota Democrats.

MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. 3O.-The
democratic state convention to nomi-
nate candidates for governor and 9TH
here shortly before 2 o'clock this af-
ternOon. The early signs all indi-
Gated a harmonious gathering not
Wlthstanding the predictions from
some quarters that there would be a
clash between the element that sup
ported Hearst at the Duluth cOnven-
ton and the conservative faction. For
the first time in ten years Ex-Governor
LIND IS taking no part in the state
convention and his withdrawal from
the scene of action mas served in a
measure to narrow the breach between
the opposing factions. 1t appears most
probable that the gubernatorial nomi-
nation will go to John A. Johnson of
st. Peter, though several others are
mentioned more or less prominently in
connection with the head Of the ticket
The convention will pass resolutions
indorsing the ticket and platform of
the st. Louis national convention.

LAO YANG. Aug. 30.-The Japan
ese resumed the artillery duel with
the Russian forces at this morning.
The heaviest firing has occurred
southeast of Lao Yang and has been
continuous, the Japanese shrapnel
searching the whole Russian front.
The mikado's forces mass all their
guns for a few moments in one square
and then move them to another point
with mathematical precision.
At 10 o'clock this morning the fire
slackened An advance along the
whole line will begin against the Rus
sian frontal positions by the Japanese
probably tomorrow. The Japanese
will then be in a position to deliver a
general frontal attack. The Russians
are holding their own gallantly. Their
casualties have been surprisingly
small considering the nature of the
Japanese artillery.

SUED NORTHERN PACIFIC.
j. B. Switzler Seeks to Recover Money
From the Corporation.

In the superior court today, 3. H.
Grosscup, general attorney of the
Northern Pacific railway company
filed a demurrer to the suit which is
now pending against that company and
wherein j. B. Switzler is plaintiff. The
demurrer alleges that the complaint
does not state facts sufficient to con-
stitute an action. The suit was
brought by Switzler to collect from the
railroad company the sum of $199S. In
the complaint Switzler alleges that in
August, 1903. he sold to G. f. COlcOrd
ed that he had on deposit in the state
bank at La Crosse, Wisconsin, $2SOO
Switzler a check for the purchase price
of the horses. The horses were deliv
cred to Colcord who loaded them on
the cars of the Northern Pacific at
Kennewick for transportation to an
eastern point. While the horses We're
being carried over the line the check
given by Colcord was presented to the
bank, but payment was refused as Col
cord had no money in the institution.
Switzler then rescinded the sale Of the
horses and notified the railroad COM
pany not to deliver the horses to Col
cord, and cease their transportation.
1t is alleged that the company disre-
garded these instructions, the horses
were turned over to COlcOrd, and the
plaintiff has never received pay for
the horses therefore he demands judg-
ment against the railroad company for
s199S and his costs and disbursements
in the case.

ships with such effect. This ex-
