ALL SEATTLE beer

Seattle, May 2.-Every Seattle brew
cry is operating with new men thii
morning in each branch Of the indus
try, the joint local executive board Of
the International Brewery Workmen OF
the United States having formally or.
dered the strike.
A special meeting Of the executive
committee of the Western Central La.
Dor Union was held last night to dis.
ouss the strike situation and take 40.
ton. By unanimous vote it was agreed
to recommend to the head body in.
dorsement of the boycott at the gener.
al meeting to be held Wednesday night
A special meeting Of the Beer Drivers
and Helpers Union was also held last
night to take action on the boycott,
appoint committees to assist the joint
local executive committee and tc
adopt policy to be pursued by the
union during the progress Of the strike
The vote on the boycott question was
unanimous in favor Of standing by the
action of the joint local executive
board.
The union Of maltsters also met yes.
terday and adopted q resolution declar.
ing it tho sense Of the body that nc
union employees go on the property OF
thep roprietors during the strike. This

All Seattle Beer s'Unfair."
A member Of the joint local execu.
tive board stated that while all bee,
made in Seattle will be declared nm.
fair, the boycott proper will be aimed
at the Seattle Brewing and Mailing
Company and the Heinrich Brothers
Brewing Company, as they are declared
to Re responsible for the STRIFE. It il
claimed by the strikers that the smaller
brewery concerns would accede to the
demands Of the workmen were they
not compelled to reject them by the
large firms. The number OF men in
volved in Western Washington is in the
neighborhood Of 800.
The employees say that there will be
DO violence and no disturbances.
They will rely on public 81 mpathy and
the boycott to win them their fight.
The Citizens Alliance, the orgsniza.
ton whose avowed aim is to break ur
all unions, or as they put it, to Gin.
stall the open shop" has charge Of
the brewers end Of the controversy.
This fact will tend to increase the de.
termination of the union men not tc
yield. and 1t will also solidify the sen.
timent OF other unions in favor OF the
workmen.

TEAM OWNERS HAVE
DESERTED EMPLOYERS

Chicago, May 3.-The strike situa-
ton in Chicago assumed peculiar as
pect yesterday, and by night interests
which have been opposing the striking
teamsters were not as united as hereto

the Team Owners Association, which
has contracts with the railroads and
many Of the large firms throughout the
city to transfer their merchandise.
Until yesterday it was supposed that
the employers association and their
allies were firmly bound together in
the fight for supremacy against the
teamsters.

NAY DAY At WARSAW
SOLDIERS FIRE on PROCESSION,
] KillING MANY.
Industrial Population Of Polish Cap
itaI Deeply Exssperated - Cos
sacks patrolllng Streets by Conn
panies- Strikes ct warsaw and
LODI becoming More Formidable

Warsaw, May 8.-The May Day
death roll totalled SIXTY two, including
ten persons who died in the hospitals
during the night. Probably 200 were
wounded. Crowds gathered at the
Tenth district police station yesterday.
where some thirty victims were await
ing Identification. Some minor disturb
ances occurred yesterday in different
sections Of the city, but no casualties
were reported. All day long cavalry
and Infantry patrolled the streets,
which were crowded with people, who
did not spare their criticism Of what
was generally termed unnecessary
slaughter. The popular irritation
could not be concealed.
The soldiers were nervous, and open
outbreaks resulting in repetition Of
Mondays terrible scenes were only
averted by the evident desire Of the
authorities to prevent clash, coupled
with the fear inspired by the soldiers
bullets. The population is most bitter
against the military, and the govern
ment officials expect many attempts. at
revenge upon the officers commanding
the troops, all Of whom are known.
The Polish press is silent on the sub
ject Of Mondays happenings. The OH
cial Russian paper prints short and
entirely inaccurate report. The gov
ernor general of Warsaw is said to be
greatly upset by the turn Of aaffirs.
Another Demonstration.
The Nationalist have arranged the
usual demonstrations for today, the
Hath anniversary Of the proclamation
Of the Polish constitution, and disturb
ances are highly probable. The work
men are in an ugly and uncertain
mood.
Reports conflict regarding the begin
Mig Of Mondays conflict in Jerusalem
street. According to the most gener-
ally accepted version, the authorities
had forbidden workmen marching in
procession to carry red flags, but the
workmen decided to ignore the order.
When the procession reached Jerusa-
lem street the police ordered the work
men to stop, but they refused to do 80,
and police officer thereupon fired q
revolver, giving q signal for the in
fantry to fire. It appears that in other
cases the demonstrators were agrees
ors, but that in this instance the SOL
diers fired first.
Tbs industrial population are deeply
exasperated over the sanguinary results
Of Mondays encounters. The strikes
inaugurated on large scale here, at
Lcdz and other cities are rapidly
spreading, and 1000 persons are ont
on strike at Lodz. Cossacks are pa
trolling the streets of Warsaw by COM
panies on account Of the danger to
smaller detachments.

STRIKERS INDICTED
CHICAGO GRAND JURY RETURNS
| ILLS AGAINST TWELVE.
Leaders Of the Transfers Charged
with Six Different ConSpirscieS.
Packers, Ice Dealers and Com
mission rlen Drawn-presideni
Possible peaCemaker.

Chicago, May Twelve Of the la
Dor leaders prominently identified with
the teamsters' strike now in progress
in this city have been indicted by the
grand jury. Each indictment con-
tains six counts and charges the men
with conspiracy.
One count in the Indictment charges
the defendants with conspiring to pre-
vent all persons not members Of the
teamsters' union from securing employ.
ment as drivers. Another count
charges conspiracy to prevent any
union teamster from picking up or de.
livering any goods to or from Mont.
gomery Ward & Co. A third count
charges conspiracy to do an illegal
act, in that the teamsters were warned
not to do any work for Ward & Co.
The fourth charges that the conspira.
tors compelled the proprietor Of the
Winsor- Clifton hotel to put out certain
guests of the hotel because they were
employees of Montgomery Ward & Co.
The other indictments differ only in
minor points.
The strike continues to spread and q
large number of teamsters employed
by lumbermen, grocers and various
coal companies have gone out. The
most serious phase Of the trouble al
present is the aggressiveness of the
packers, ice dealers and commission
men, who have decided that they will
stand with the members Of the employ.
ers' association and demand that their
teamsters make deliveries to boycotted
firms, and that if any teamster de.
clinas TO do 80 he is to be Immediately
discharged. This means q lockout, fol
the men have already declared that
they will not make such deliveries.
More than $500 men will he involved
when this action is taken.
Employers Demand Deliveries.
The wholesale grocers have also de-
cided that they will demand Of their
men that goods be delivered to boy.
cottsd firms and prompt dismissal Of
every teamster refusing to comply will
be ordered. This will add 500 more
to the number of men on strike.
The men employed by Che Hartwell
Coal Company have gone out. This
concern delivers all the coal to the
Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company,
which supplies the city with. gas.
Large quantities Of perishable articles
are now stacked in the houses of the
express companies, and most Of it is
expected to spoil. So far the strike
has not in any apprecisble manner in:
terfered with the food supply of the
city.
There is strong sentiment among
the laboring men to have President
Roosevelt interfere in the strike when
he arrives in the city on. his return
from his vacation. He is scheduled to
arrive here on May 10, and he will be
asked to end the strike, as in the case
Of the anthracite miners.
John Mitchell has arrived in the city
and has held a conference with num-
Der of the strike leaders.
During the afternoon the strike
spread to the city transfer system and
not q trunk was handled for any Of the
downtown hotels. The Parmlee Com.
pany delivered baggage to the hotels
in cases where checks had been issued
on incoming trains, but touched nc
outgoing baggage.
