NO MORE CONCESSIONS
EMPLOYERS or CHICAGO VERY
 DETERMINED.
Garment Workers Declare They VIII Keep Up Fight Even if the General Trouble is Satisfacto-
 rfly Arbftrated.

Chicago, June 9.-Aside from one or two feeble efforts to open peace nego- tiations there were no developments today in the teamsters strike. The attempts at peace failed utterly. The chief effort toward settlement was made by a committee of the teamsters
 which attempted to open separate nego-
 tiations with the large State Street
 stores Every effort of the strikers
 in this direction has heretofore pro-
 duced no result whatever and the move
 of today met with the same fate as did
 Its predecessors.
 That the teamsters must meet all of
 the conditions laid down by the em-
 pIoyers or declare the strike off with
 out making any settlement now seems
 from the employers standpoint. to be
 the logical outcome of the struggle.
 Another attempt to arrange for a new
 peace conference has resulted in re-
 iteration by the employers that they
 will make no further concessions.
 A general meeting of the Chicago Team Owners Association will be held tomorrow night to vote on the propo- sition to deliver to affected houses. An affirmative decision would precipitate walkout of 5000 teamsters.
 Announcement was made today by the Employers Teaming Company that men were reporting daily to its agents in seven cities and that 1t would be possible to rush to Chicago 400 men d day In the event of a further extension of the strike.
 The garment workers, the original cause of the present strike, have come to the conclusion that the teamsters have forgotten the sympathy" which two months ago prompted them to strike in aid of the tailors. A ta meet ing of all the special order locals the following was adopted:
 "Resoved, That in the event of the Teamsters' Union calling off their strike in the absence of this organiza- ton, that such action shall not term mate in any way the struggle which the garment workers are carrying on against the National Wholesale TaiIors' Association, unless the teamsters' set clement carries with 1t a satisfactory settlement of the garment workers question"
 George J. Jackson, a tallyman em- pioyed by a lumber company has been attacked by three union "sluggers" and probably fatally injured. His assail- ants who escaped. accused him of be- ing a strike-breaker.
 Disappointment by a sudden turn of affairs that resulted in President Shea being subpoenaed to Wheaton, H., to- day, leaders in the teamsters strike paused in forcing definite peace moves. They feared some sort of trick in the unexpected demand upon the chief ex- ecutive of the Brotherhood of Team sters. MT. Shea had just reiterated his belief that a conference of strike lead CTS and employers might be brought about, with bright chances for set If both himself and Levy Mayer. attorney for the employers. were not included in the makeup of the conference. While still talking MT. Shea was served with legal paper his presence in court in the neighboring town in a Panhandle railroad case. He said the leader of the teamsters accepted service and started at once for Wheaton.
 Previous to the departure of Shea 8 committee of the Department Store Drivers Union had reopened negotia- tions with department store employers looking for another general conference with representatives of the Employers Attorney Levy Mayer had given his positive assurance that he was ready to meet a committee of teamsters any time 1t had a proposition to offer so that when the strike shall have been ended no striker might say that the drivers were refused confer snce. Warlike reports continue to come from the team owners, but W. P | Rend is almost the only employer in the | who is definitely known to De disposed to break the period of | neutrality and "go it alone.'
 Tomorrow evening the Team owners | intends to meet to discuss | fully every phase of the situation. In | | recent referendum canvass, wholly | informal, it is said that only two of | he employers were in favor of forc- | ng the issue with the drivers by de- that deliveries be made any where. Other reports are that J. J. Ohearn, Mix & Jackson and Taft Bros., .eam owners, entertain opinions similar 70 w. F. Rend.
