CAUSES
STRIKE

Yesterday the members OF Brewery
Workers union. ia. employed at the
Providence brewery, decided TO go on
strike. The trouble has been growing
for the past two weeks and began with
the discharge Of one OF the men. Mr.. Ber-
ger.
The members OF the union claim the dis
charge OF Berger was without reason and
the excuse that he could no longer work
there was insufficient. Mr.. Berger has
been out OF the employment of the com
pany for about two weeks, and during
that time various conferences have been
held between the men and the foreman,
Mr.. George Guggeberger but none re-
suited satisfactorily, so yesterday the
men decided to use the most forcible
means in their power to compel the com
pany 10 relnstate the discharged man.
The local claims that in few days all
will be settled Further negotiations
will be made through the organizer. who
Is coming here from Boston to be at the
meeting tomorrow.
The local is also awaiting advice from
the international headquarters, and this
morning began the system OF picketing
the brewery and those places where the
teamsters were accustomed TO carry beer
1t was stated, that all Of the men we've
out, except a few OF the engineer force
and the firemen. The company claims
that II is doing the customary amount OF
business, but is willing to meet the men
should they so desire, since all OF them
have been employed there a number of
years. There are about 20 men con-
cerned.
