Heads OF Strikers And Packers May
Come To Agreement.
ARBITRATION THE ONLY SOLUTION
The Union Leaders viii Ineist That
Strikers Be Re.Instated and Ask
Wage Scale For Each Class or
Workmen.

Chicago, July 1G,-The first steps
toward peace between the seven pack.
ing companies and their $4,000 strik-
ing employees were taken when Pres
ident Michael Donnelly Of the Anal
gamated Meat Cutters and Butchers
Union of North America, held a con-
ference with representatives Of the
packing houses in which the strike
was called. There are indications that
the conference will open the way for
a settlement of the strike, prolonga-
ton of which would mean suffering
to the strikers, heavy losses to their
employers and privation and general
inconvenience to the public. Both
sides are in favor Of a peaceable set
Element upon an equitable basis and
1t is believed that an arrangement will
be made for the men to return to
work pending an adjustment of the
difficulties by arbitration. That this
manner of settlement will be accept
ed by both sides appears probable. ].
o. Armour, for the employers, and
Michael Donnelly, for the workers,
have united in declaring they favor
arbitration. The head of the union,
in counsel with President Samuel
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor, was advised to make terms
at once if he could secure what he
deemed fair consideration. 1t is un-
derstood that in the conference, the
union leaders will insist that the
strikers be reinstated. Another point
on which the labor men will lay great
stress will be that a wage scale for
each class of workers in the packing
plants be agreed upon. This brings
up one of the original differences.
The packers have maintained that any
contract made would not include the
unskilled workers.
1t was announced that representa-
tives of the packing houses had ar
ranged to hold conference previous
to the joint arbitration meeting. AT
this conference, it was said 1t would
be determined just what terms the
packers would be willing to agree to.
Those selected to represent the pack
ing houses were Louis and .. F.
