ANOTHER EFFORT TO
SETTLE MEAT STRIKE
MEN ASK EMPLOYERS FOR
ANOTHER CONFERENCE.

Encouraged by Treatment Accorded by
the Packers to Head of Firemen's
Union, Who Warned Them Unless
There Was Speedy Settlement He
would Have to Call Out His Men
Strike Leader to Send Letter to Them.
Chicago, July 1S.-Another effort is
to be made to settle the stock yards
strike by arbitration. Tomorrow Pres
ident Donnelly of the striking unions
will send to the packers another letter
asking for conference. In this letter
Mr.. Donnelly will go over the history
of the strike, and will ask the packers
if in their Judgment it would not be bet
ter to concede the one point in conten-
tion, the taking back of all strikers,
than to continue the strike.
The refusal Of the packers to dis
charge the men they have employed
since the commencement of the strike
and to give their places to the strikers
caused the breaking off of previous con-
ferences. The communication to the
packers will also suggest the belief Of
the strikers that they are. as old em-
ployes, deserving of this consideration,
II this offer Of the union is rejected
by the packers. Mr.. Donnelly declared
tonight, the allied trades at the stock
yards, numbering in all about $4,000
| men, will be called out tomorrow In an
effort to bring the packers to terms.
Joseph Morton, of the stationary
| firemen's union, called on the packers
| this afternoon and warned them that
unless there was a speedy settlement
OF the strike the men would be COM
PEELED to quit work. While no definite
answer was given to Mr.. Morton by
| the packers, he was received by them
| in such a friendly manner that he left
| the conference with the belief that
there was still strong probability OF
peace. The determination of Mr.. Dom
nelly once more to open negotiations
with the packers was the result of the
manner in which Mr.. Morton was re-
ceived by the packers.
/ According to representatives of the
packers, the operating force at Chicago
plants to-day were about one-half the
normal strength, being fully 50 per
cent. larger than on Saturday. All the
plants, it was said, did great deal Of
killing, and there was also a decided
/ increase in the amount of dressed
meats shipped out of Chicago. From
the strikers side came the statement
that independent plants are doing all
/ the work and that the big plants are
not doing 2 per cent. Of their normal
i business.
