Negro Teamsters Are Being Sup
planted With Whites as Fast
Is Possible.
COMMISSION IS APPOINTED
Will Investigate the Strike and en-.
deavor to Settle Differences Between
the contesdins Factions, but Not
Much Hope Of Success

Chicago, May S.-Both employers
and strikers claim to have made gains
today in the teamsters' strike. The
employers declared that they had
gained decided advantages In the num-
Der OF wagons sent out and business
transacted. The strikers claim is based
upon the fact that ESQ drivers for var
ious furniture stores in the city will
strike tomorrow and also $50 paint
workers employed by the Heath &
Milligan Company. The paint workers
of Heath & Milligan are the first MEM
bers of any union. not members Of the
teamsters' union to go on a strike to
support the teamsters. They walked
out becaues of the delivery OF goods
by non-union teamsters.
The State street department stores
and large dry goods houses had near
ly their full compliment OF delivery
wagons out today and throughout tne
day transacted business on an almost
normal basis. No more colored men
are being hired and as rapidly as pos.
slble those now at work are being sup
planted by white men.
The rioting today was OF a sharper
character than Saturday. Three men
were fatally injured and a number Of
others badly hurt, although the num-
Der of wounded Is not, as a whole,
nearly so large as on some Of the days
the middle Of the last week. The civic
commission oppolnted by Mayor
