STRUGCLEFOR UNION

Snecial to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
TORONTO, Ont, April 9.-The sit
uation in the strike of the Great North
western Telegraph company's operators
remains unchanged at this point, Mon
trea1, ottawa, London and Quebec.
The company claims 1t has enough
men to move its business as usual,
while the men state only the higher
officials Of the company are at the
keys and that practically nothing is
being moved either in or out of the
offices by wire.
President w. G. Long, of the Com
mercial Telegraphers' Union of Amer
lea, objects to the word strike" be-
ing used in connection with the walk
out He says the men simply quit to
save being dismissed by the company,
as fast as 1t was able to dispense with
their services, on account of their MEM
bership in the union.
ut is an attempt of the Western
Union Telegraph company, Of which
the Great Northwestern is the Cana
dian connection, to disrupt the organi-
cation of telegraphers," said Mr.. Long.
"Since the present attempt of the men
to organize, the telegraph company has
discharged members in Chicago, Pitts
burg, New Orleans and other places,
but these men have secured better po-
sitions with other employers and so no
decided protest has been made. The
men In Canada walked out in support
Of a principle and are determined to
maintain their right to join a union
having for It's object their improve
ment. We are receiving assurances of
moral and financial support from every
local Of the union"
Mr.. Long is here advising Vice
President Dunn, of Montreal, who is
in personal charge Of the strike in
Canada.
Mr.. Dunn says that all telegraph OPP
orators, railroad and commercial, are
supporting those who have gone out.
He is hopeful of an amicable settlement
shortly, but fears the trouble will
spread unless the Canadian grievances
are adjusted.
