LOCKOUT OF 5000 DRIVERS.
Next Expected Development Of the
Chicago Strike.

ChlCAGO, JUNE o.
A lockout of 5000 drivers promises to be
the next decisive development in the strike
situation. w. P. Rend, chairman OF the
arbitration committee of the Chicago Team
Owners Association, declared today that
he favored delivery to all firms. He as
serted he would urge such action at q spe
cial meeting of the association tomorrow
carry out this policy in his own business.
This announcement is direct result of
refusal by the truck drivers to submit to
arbitration the question of dealing with
struck firms. Such a move, it Is said,
would force employees of team owners into
the rank of the strikers. Up to the pres
ent time most of the team owners have held
out against a lockout and have avoided
doing business with strike bound houses
so far as possible.
President Shea explained today that he
opposed settlement at yesterdays strike
conference with the employers because he
had been informed $4,000 was on the way
here to aid the teamsters' cause and he
thought fight of two three weeks long
er could be waged. Now he intends to
Keep up the contest, asserting that trouble

EFFORTS FOR PEACE
Hope Renewed in Govern

slider Reasonable Offer
From japan.
FROM MEYER

Pending negotiations for the promotion
OF peace in the far east have assumed
within few hours an unexpectedly ia
vorable phase. While it might be too
much to say at this moment that peace is
in sight, in view of the delicacy of the
exchanges now in progress, it is certain
that there is greater hope now for sue
cessful termination of the present nego-
tiations than there has been at any time.
1t can be said that the result Of Ambas-
sador Meyers audience with the car yes
terday was distinctly favorable. 1t has
been the effort of President Roosevelt
throughout the exchanges which have
taken place between the United States and
European powers since the battle of the
Korean straits to bring Russia and Japan
into such touch as would enable the two
belligerent nations to reach a basis of
common understanding. In this effort he
has had the support of several of the i'm
portant powers whose influence carries
weight with both the warning govern
mentS.
No details of the report made by Am
bassador Meyer of his conference with the
car are obtainable at this time. The sit
uation. however. in view of the ambassa-
doris report. is described as most favor
able" 1t is quite certain that the car
welcomed the expressions of good will OF
the President, conveyed to him by Ambas-
sador Meyer. and not only did not reject
the overtures made to him, but indicated
his willingness to consider them.
