OF EXPRESS DRIVERS.
BY Associated Press.

Chicago, May 20.-Lacking only an
official declaration to that effect the
great teamsters' strike came to an
end tonight The executive commit
tee of the International Brotherhood
Of Teamsters, the only body within
the organization which has the power
to declare the strike at an end, was in
session all through the early part oil
the night, and the strike could not be
said to be over until that body had
announced the fight had closed.
1t was day of conferences and con
situations and counter propositions
and at nightfall the situation was
practically the same as in the morn
ing.
The teamsters have accepted all the
terms of the employers with the ex
ception of that relating to the rein
statement of drivers for the sever
express companies. These men were
informed when they went out on {
sympathetic strike that they were VIC
lating their contracts and that none
of them would be re-employed again il
any capacity. The unions made /;
desperate effort to save the position!
of the men, but SO far have been un
successful.
It is possible that the executive com
mittee tonight may decide 10 contin
ne the strike against the express com
panies.
