the transportation business, and some
Of them employ several hundred team
sters The members of the association
have contracts in large measure for
the hauling of goods between the large
business houses of the city and the
railways, and they have heretofore
rather sided With the teamsters than
with the members of the Employers
Association. They decided however,
that they could no longer refuse to
make deliveries.
President Shea Of the Transfers
Union was defiant, and went into the
meeting with the declaration that the
teamsters of Chicago would strike to
a man rather than to agree to permit
the delivery of goods to houses where
strikes have been called. There was,
however, a strong element in the union
opposed to a general strike, and many
OF the officers of the local unions went
into the meeting with the avowed in
tention of preventing a spread OF the
strike if it was possible.
The employers, realizing that the
SII1Ac was CIlliNI NOIA VA J1t'7t poNNe ~
spread mailed to 10000 business
houses in Chicago a statement of the
strike as viewed from their stand
point. The document went over the
causes of the strike and called on all
bushes men to uphold their right to
send wagons through the streets with
out molestation, and to join with the

Police on Wagons.
Last week, when the strike riots be-
came so numerous an order went out
from police headquarters for two po-
licemen to ride on every wagon. This
was strongly opposed by the labor lead
ers. but it did no good Now the big
stores and express companies have
about 600 wagons out, which is little
over 80 per cent of the regular opera
tons.
The investigating committee appoint
ed by Mayor Dunno has accomplished
nothing. In statement over their
own signatures several of the employ
ers assert that President Shea of the
union was willing to accept the terms
offered by the employers provided they
would reinstate tie strikers for twenty
four hours until Shea could get out of
town. Shea declares that there is no
truth in the statement of the employ
ers
Acid in eagshells has been thrown
from windows on horses. Negro strike
breakers have assaulted innocent citi-
zens and beaten them ferociously. Fiji
teen hundred policemen have tried to
keep order and have failed. The peo-
pie who have no concern in the affair
either way have been Inconvenience
most. The big stores could not deliver
their goods. Many groceries could not
get purchases to customers. Trunks OF
Incoming visitors have been delayed.
Coal has run short in some of the big
buildings.

WILL END PUPILS STRIKES.
Chicago Board of Education Threatens
Arrest OF Parents.

The school strike in Chicago has con-
tinued to spread, while the authorities
are taking measures to put quietus on
the epidemic. So far there have been
strikes at eight school buildings because
these schools have been receiving coal
delivered by non-union transfers. Near
ly 1900 school children left their desks,
and much rioting ensued.
w. l.. Bodine. superintendent of COM
pulsory education, detailed thirty-six
truant officers and special policemen to
serve warning notices upon parents of
striking school children. The notices
read that unless the children are sent
to school at once the parents will be held
responsible to the law. The Illinois law
requires parents to keep their children
at school. 1t also requires the children
to attend school and obey the rules there
of The law. the superintendent says,
will be strictly and promptly enforced
against the parents for failure to send
their children to school and against chill
dren for failure to attend and obey the
rules of the school.

the condition of their business made it
necessary for them to make deliveries
to houses which have been boycotted
by the unions, and that they would do
so next week Needless of the fact
whether OR not a strike existed at such
places. The Council was urged to
agree to this procedure and avert a
general strike. After an extended de-
bate the members of the Transfers
Council decided that it would not
agree to the delivery of goods to any
Of the boycotted houses by union team
sters, and that strikes would be called
whenever a man was discharged for
refusing to deliver goods. There are
$4,000 transfers in the unions which
will be affected.

A transfers strike is different from
any other kind of strike. If the men
in factory go out, the center of dis
turbance is the factory. 1t is the same
with mine or a store. If street car
men decline to work themselves Or to
let others work the base of operations
must necessarily be at the barns and
along the tracks where the cars should
run. If there is strike at the pack
ing houses they simply build stock
ade around them and herd their strike
breakers within it. Not so with a
transfers strike. The teams, driven
by strike-breakers, go everywhere.
They appear on the street and the
strikers are on as many streets as
they are. Thus when a transfers
strike gets good, as this one has been
in Chicago, there is a wake of tumult
and rioting and a trail of broken heads
from one end of the town to the other.
Mayor Ia ks of Troops.
Aside from action, as outlined by
the teamsters and team owners, one
of the principal developments Monday
was when the Mayor gave first init
nation that perhaps it would be neces-
sary to ask for the help of the militia
to keep order in Chicago. He did not
say the necessity existed, and would
not say he thought the time would
come when it did, but he declared:
If this strike spreads and more vio-
lence results it means troops. If it be-
comes evident that violence has reach
ed a point where the police cannot
handle it | will not hesitate moment
in calling on the Governor for aid"
Scores of threatening letters have
been received by Levy Mayer, Robert
J. Thorne, Frederick w. Job, Victor
w. Sincere and others who have been
identified with the employers associa-
ton in its struggle. The sentiments
in the communications are in language
varying from most complimentary
terms to scathing invective.

Comment on ophir Suit.

The San Francisco Journal of Com
merce says in reference to the suit
against Ophir: $50 far as we can
see, the suit of the Golden Gate NJ
& M. Co., is without the slightest
merit and is simply Fishing exc,r-
sion. The present claimants of the
Golden Gate company abandoned the
property 20 years ago and never dis
covered that they had any claim until
the Ophir Company discovered ore.
However admitting that the piece Of
ground which they claim was legally
theirs, the natural pitch of the coun.
try would put any ore in that claim
at least 1000 feet east of the location
1t is regretable that the courts can
be used by irresponsible parties to
further their ends"
