GENERAL STRIKE OF PACKING.
HOUSE EMPLOYEES I'M BEEF
TRUST" PLANTS.
MUCH Difference or OPINION EXISTS
MEN SAY TlEUP is COMPLETE
BUT PACKERS ASSERT THEY
ARE OPERATING.

New York, Aug, 11.-Following the
ultimatum given the packers by the
Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butch
ers' union that general strike would
go into effect during the day the or
der became effective at the time set.
The plants affected are those affiliated
with the so-called beef trust"
A difference of opinion exists al
ready as to the number of men on
strike, the union opinion being that
the strike is complete, while the pack
ers state that only about so per cent
of the men have left and that these
places will be quickly filled.
The United Dressed Beef company
claims to have about months supply
of beef in the refrigerators. Until this
supply is about exhausted President
Blumenthal said there would be no
raise in prices.
The Schwarzchild & Sulzberger COM
pany, it was said, was doing practi-
cally no business, as the men, almost

MOVING ON LIAOYANG
JAPANESE INTENTIONS APPEAR
TO BE TO PRESS DIRECT ON
!. RUSSIAN POSITION.
SUNS CAN COMMAND PORT ARTHUR
CAPTURE OF WOLF HILLS GIVES
THE JAP ARMY AN lMPoR-
TANT ADVANTAGE.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 11.-Neryous-
ness over the situation at the front
seems to be increasing since the occu-
patton by the Japanese of Wolf hills,
before Port Arthur. II is admitted that
the besiegers have an elevated posi-
tion, whence emplaced guns can COM
mand the fortress, and while still pro
Tossing confidence that General Stoes-
sci will be able to hold out with his
comparatively small garrison against
the enormous number of the attackers
and their evident disregard of men, in
dicated by the reckless maner In which
they stormed the outer positions, the
state of affairs creates more appre-
hension than the war office or admi-
rally care to acknowledge.
Similar misgivings exist regarding
General Kuropatkin's position, the ad-
yantages of the new Japanese base at
Newchwang greatly simplifying the
problem of provisioning their army be-
ing fully realized. But 1t is the re-
port that the Japanese are working
westward of the main Russian army
which occasions the greatest uneasi-
ness The rllmor that they are moving
up towards Simintin, a short distance
west of Mukden, from Newehwang is
generally believed.
Japanese Gordon Tightening.
With the Japanese Gordon tighten
ing south and east and column
threatening the Russian line of com
munications in the rear, towards Muk-
den, the appearance of the Japanese
on the other side of Mukden would al
most pocket General Kuropatkin If he
has resolved to accept battle with his
whole army at Liaoyang. Shrewd mil
itary attaches are extremely doubtful
whether General Kuropatkin could
now withdraw even il he so desired.
Another alarming feature of the sit
uation in connection with the Japan
ese Western column Is the report that
1t includes many Chinese, who are Jap
anese subjects from the island of For
mosa, whose influence on the local
Chinese and the soldiers of General
Ma and Viceroy Yuanshikai is feared.
The news received at the war Office
during the day indicates the concen-
tration of the Japanese armies east of
Simoucheng, which is Interpreted as
showing the intention TO press direct
on Liaoyang in an attempt TO cut off
Anshanshan (half way between Hal
cheng and Liaoyang).
The Japanese advance on Mukden
does not seem to have developed a
serious character and, according to the
general staff, the way of retreat is
still open, Ii General kuropatkin
chooses to withdraw.

EFFORTS TO END STRIKE.
More Peace Rumors Regarding Stock
Yards Trouble.

Chicago, Aug 11.--Steps looking to
a settlement of the stock yards strike
are TO be initiated at conference be-
tween the Retail Meat Dealers asso-
citation of Chicago and the Market
Wagon Drivers union, according to re-
ports that reached the packinghouse
teamsters during the day.
Extension of the picket lines about
wholesale and retail meat markets was
also promised by union officials A
conference OF the leaders was held and
plans were made to shut off ice and
meat from more establishments pat
ronizing the big packers.
There was revival of talk during
the day concerning the formation OF a
new stock yards corporation to build
a general stock yards on the Stickney
tract on the Chicago drainage canal.
This project is credited to the Hately
Bros, former packers, now engaged
in board of trade operations. They
are said to nave secured extensive in
terests in the properties that were
once the possessions of President
Stickney of the Great Western road.
In this connection Isaac Heitner. cat
tie speculator at the yards, who has
also conducted slaughtering opera
tions, has secured two killing plants
and will enter the field as an inde-
pendent packer One OF the plants is
close to the Stickney tract
City officials began an active inves-
tigation into the conditions surround
ing the housing of nonuion men and
women in the stock yards during the
day in response to an appeal made by
union men TO Mayor Harrison. The
officials refrained from making any
comment on the investigation, saying
their views would be embodied in a
report to the mayor.

Nebraska Democratic Convention In

Lincoln. Neb, Aug. 1.-THE person
mel of the Democratic state ticket was
entirely in doubt when the convention
was called to order here during the
day.
A persistent story to the effect that
little opposition will be made to Roose-
welt and that the fusionists will bend
all their efforts towards carrying the
legislature. SO that Mr. Bryan may go

up to the convention hour.
1t Is practically settled that there
shall be two electoral tickets In the
field, one Democratic and the other
Popuiist. but that the same names for
state officers and the legislature shall
appear on the two tickets. This would
almost certainly give the state TO Roose-
velt, at the same time giving the fu-
sionists better chance to elect a

would be desirable for him to name a

notified the navy department that for
various reasons he was unable to find
in Dubuque young woman whom he
could designate as the vessels spon-
sor and that the department would
have to select the sponsor. The may

GENERAL STRIKE AGREED ON.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-The executive
board of the Garment Workers union
has agreed to endorse the strike of the
cutters and will call out al the union
members, whether men Ofwrsaen.
This action means that 5000 to
1000 tailors will be made idle. When
the cutters quit on technical disa-
greement over hours of labor and
wages it was not thought serious by
the employers. for it was the dull sea-
son and few large orders were on
hand.
The calling olft OF all the garment
workers has put different phase on
the affair and it now seems likely
that the cutters, having won their
point with the executive board. will
be able to tie up all the shops in Chi
