TROUBLE.

ion and the employers declared at mid
night that the prospects for the settle
ment of the strike are excellent. and
that the end of the trouble may be
looked for at any time within the next

existed at the time of his application.
This phase Of the strike was the only
matter discussed at the conference to-
night, and in the opinion of ali present

the negotiations Will be continued to-
morrow.
President Shea Of the teamsters said
tonight after leaving the conference
that he considered the chances good for
a settlement Of the strike and Attor-
ney Mayer, for the employers, eX-
pressed similar views.
Despite this move for peace the
Lumbermen's association is preparing
for an extension of the strike. At n
meeting of this organization tonight it
was decided that tomorrow all team
sters employed by the sixty-five firms
composing the association would be
compelled to make deliveries of con-
signmentS to strike bound houses.
