Strike Ii Renewed.
The Stock Yards strike was declared
on again in Chicago Friday morning,
less than 3S hours after peace agree
ment had been signed. On the charge
that the packers were discriminating
against certain persons in the re-em-
ployment process the union officials or
dered their men to quit work, and the
situation at the yards was soon as bad
as ever.
Confusion, excitement and charges Of
bad faith attended the new walk-out.
The union charged discrimination on
the part Of the packers in taking back
the strikers. The employers asserted
that only delay, to be expected in eff
forts to resume normal operations, was
at fault. 1t was evident, however, that
the contending forces were farther
apart than at any time during the or
1ginal strike. The strike was renewed
in other packing centers also.
Strike leaders declared that unless
the employers changed their attitude
at once, all the allied trades workmen
would walk out and that a complete
stoppage of work at the packing plants
would ensue.
When the men reported for work in
body early in the morning they were
met by the announcement that it
would be impossible at present to take
back more than half the force. The
workers met this announcement sui
lenly, Notwithstanding the clause in
the agreement which gave the packers
10 days in which to supply work for all
the strikers. The strikers said: "You
must take us all back or none Of us
will go to work"
Many of them did go to work, how
ever, but @ little later the leaders ap-
peared, and on discovering that some
of the men who were turned away had
been prominent figures in the strike
they declared that the packers were
employing n 'revengeful discrimina-
tion," and the strike was declared to
be on once more.
President Donnelly, after comforting
with other leaders, gave the order for
the strike and then sent this telegram
to union officials in other packing Gen.

the various packing firms. This con-
ference was called at the request of
President Golden of the packing-house
teamsters, who had been refused per-
mission to strike until one more eff
fort had been made to secure peace.
When this conference failed to bring
results, the labor leaders held q hur-
ried meeting in Golden's office, and it
was decided to call out all the men
still at work. Mounted on a horse
one of the butchers rode through the
yards and issued the call.
There was rush of feet and a rum

lay aside their tools and with grim
determination walked out in a body.

plants into the streets, the enthusiasm
the yelling, the clapping of shoulders,
the waves of huzzas from Threats of
