co ON STRIKE

DALLAS, Tex, Aug. 2.-Members
of the o. r. r. in Dallas quit work
yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock in
obedience to an order for a strike OF
all telegraphers employed on the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas system.
The number of men engaged in the
strike could not be ascertained. At
the office of superintendent McDow-
ell it was stated that no Interrupt
ton was anticipated
The order for the strike seems TO
have been unexpected by o. r. T.
men. The wage schedule is said to be
one subject of disagreement and pay
for overtime and shorter hours are
other matters which require adjust
ment. The promotion according to
seniority of telegraphers to be sta
ton agents is also demanded by the
strikers.

INDUSTRIAL PEACE
Tells the Civic Federation u
Will Come Through Mutual
Agreements.
NO ARBITRATION FOR HIM
Prefers to Make Concessions Directly
Rather Than Call in Outsiders
Who Don't Understand Facts
to Settle Matters.

New York, May 1o.-Capital and labor
executive committee Of the National
Civil Federation. The object was the
proposition of joint trade agreements,
one of the subjects which the late SEN
ator Hanna believed was closest to the
work of ti1e federation. Francis l..
Robbins, president Of the Pittsburg
Coal company. presided. John Mitch
ell strongly advocated the joint trade
agreement idea.
Is the essence Of trade unionism," he
said. I'VE have now 100000 men work
ing under conditions which are fixed
by joint agreements. We adjust all
differences now by agreements; we
leave no questions to arbitration. Ar
bitration Is preferable to strikes-that
is all"
Outsiders, when called in, have said
they did not understand conditions,
and the result of arbitration has been
unsatisfactory to both employers and
employees.
II believe in strikes. I also believe
in lockouts. Neither side must sur
render either one of these rights. But
believe neither thing should be re-
sorted to until each side has exhausted
every peaceful means for settlement.
Nothing can make SO much for in
dustrial peace as the recognition of the
independence of labor and capital"
In reply to questions put to him by
members of the federation, Mr. Mitch
ell said under no circumstances would
he consent to arbitration Of some fun
damental questions. He would never
consent to arb,trate the eight-hour
work day or his right to belong to q
union. AS an instance of his position
1n fn,, nf ..f,iJ l,n fit n
a case where he had advised miners In
Kentucky to accept Il wage reduction
Of Az per cent rather than accept the
arbitration which the employers were
perfectly willing to grant. He be-
lieved this preferable to having outsid-
ers come in to adjust affairs which
| they did not understand.
