Hundreds of Strikers Ask for Their Old
Jobs Injunction for st. Joseph.
Kansas City, Aug. 2.--Developments
in the packing house strike are serious
from the standpoint of the strikers, as
hundreds of their number have re-
turned to work, many of them being
skilled workmen. The serious break
in the ranks Of the strikers was caused
by their growing tired of waiting for
strike benefit money promised from
Chicago, and because they could not
afford to remain idle longer without
pay. Few of the men who applied for
work were refused their old places,
and those who were not taken back
were assured that they will be re-em-
ployed when it becomes necessary for
the packers to increase their forces.
Many who returned to work are cattle
and hog butchers, which will assist
materially in increasing the output OF
the packers. The packers assert that
the strike is practically broken here.
All talk of a sympathetic strike seems
to have ceased.

ing packing house men at st. Joseph
