STRIKERS GO
BACK To WORK
Knee Pants Factory Reached An
Agreement With the Firm-.-
Are Busy Today.

After being out on a strike for
several weeks the striking employees
OF the /. S. Knee Pants factory re-
turned to work this morning. At n
meeting held in Mckinley Hall, $50
Elm street, last night, between the
strikers committee and the mage
of the factory, an agreement was
reached, the bosses agreeing to some
of the demands and the strikers Civ
ing up some of the things they want
ed.
Several weeks ago the employees
went on a strike because one of the
men had been laid off, and because
they claimed that the wages they
were receiving were not what they
should be. The strikers formed a
union and drew up a set of resolu-
tons, which they demanded that the
managers adopt.
At the meeting in Mckinley Hall
last night the matter was gone over
thoroughly. The management agreed
take all the strikers back and to
give the mechanics working on long
an increase in wages. The
men can have a union if they so de-
sire, but it is not recognized by the
employers.
No men are to be discharged, but
the employees are to have a commit
tee who shall investigate each case
before an employe is discharged.

THREE TOWNS DOWN
Tornado Strikes BeIIeviIIe, Stone
burg and Hamilton, Killing Many.

FORT WORTH. Tex. April 1.-THE
towns of Bellevue. Stoneburg and
Hamilton, near Bowie, Tex, and about
twenty miles apart, were blown away
by a tornado. The death list is given
as thirty at Bellevue. fifteen at Stone
burg and two at Hamilton. A messen-
ger on horseback rode through the
darkness of the storm to carry the
news to Bowie and implore aid. From
Bowie the burning town could be seen.
for after the destruction wrought by
the wind the household fires and lamps
set the ruins ablaZe. and much damage
was done in that way. The injured in
the three places are estimated at more
than 2OO
The city marshal of Hico reports
that there is great excitement in that
town over the disaster. Aid has been
asked by Hamilton. From Bowie a re-
lief train is being rushed to Bellevue.
Bowie is 125 miles from that town.
Meager details are reaching this city
of the destruction of several hamlets
near Hamilton and Bellevue. From
the extent of the interrupted commu-
nication it is inferred that the area Of
the storm was large. a telephone mes
sage from Il small town near Bellevue
saws that a lurid glow III the sky over
the town indicates that fire has started
i'm the ruins of the town.
