STRIKESITUATION UNCHANGED
Telegraph Companies Refuse to Re-
eeive Labor Leaders.
Claim Operators Being No Longer
in Employ There Is Nobody
to Arbitrate With.

New York, Aug. 26.-NO attempt was
made to-day by National President
Small. OF the Commercial Telegraphers.
to reach the officials of the telegraph
companies, and the attitude of the com
panies was not encouraging. The West
ern Union officials reiterated that they
will not see Small or any other labor
leader; that there can be no arbitration
under any circumstances.
A report was given out at headquarters
Of the strike leaders that the Western
Union officials were considering the
proposition of sending a fake telegram
throughout the country over the signature
of President Small, declaring the strike
of. When Superintendent Brooks, OF the
Western Union, was asked about this, he
said the report was too preposterous TO
waste any time talking about IT, Re
garding the coming Of National President
Small. of the union, TO New York, he
said:
I do not see what the strikers can ex-
pect to bring about by bringing Small
here. No matter how long he stays, we
will not be In any more receptive mood
as to arbitration than we are now
When the national strike was declared It
was also ended as far as this company
is concerned. When the operators
walked out they ceased to be in our en-
ploy, and there is nobody TO arbitrate
with. We can have nothing to do with
Small or Gompers or Mitchell. or any
other labor leader
Several statements were made during
the day by National President Small, of
the telegraphers. Summed up. they were
to the effect that the operators Of the
Western Union Company were so over
worked that a number were in danger of
collapse; that there was no chance OF ar
bitration now. but that any plan that was
fair would be acceptable when the proper
time came; that the companies were
bound TO lose the fight, and that the
strikers were assured of financial aid that
would enable them to hold out for six
months II necessary.
