LULL
IN STRIKE
CIRCLES
FEW ADDITIONAL MEN
QUIT AT CHICAGO
!, Ogden Armour CourteouSIy
Turns Down Demands of the
Packing House Operators
for Increased Wages,

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 1S.-There is a
sort of a lull in the telegraphers'
strike today, and though no progress
has been made toward a settlement
the situation seems less strained.
Few important developments have
occurred in Chicago during the last
twenty-four hours. AS was expected,
thirty-five operators employed by Ar
mour & Co, walked out yesterday af-
ternoon. They asked for new sched-
ule of wages, calling for an increase
of 20 per cent. and a closed shop con-
tract.
A committee waited on ]. Ogden
Armour and Superintendent T. ].
Connors and presented their demands.
The meeting was entirely friendly. but
Mr.. Armour said he could not COM
ply with the conditions asked for.
Other packing plants must make
known their decisions to the union to-
day or additional walkouts OF the
leased wire men will occur.
Fifty Postal operators have Joined
the strike at San Francisco, and a
number of small towns added slightly
to the total of men now on strike.
Galesburg, ILL.,, contributed a few;
st. Joseph, Mo-, three Western Union
men, and Norfolk, Va, twenty-five
men from both companies, including
the operators Of the jamestown fair.
1t cannot be truthfully said that
apathy exists in the ranks Of the Chi
cago strikers but uncertainty Of the
leaders position on the question of
mediation have not been without ef-
feet. Some of the Chicago papers to-
day say that the effectiveness Of the
strike is broken, while officials Of the
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
companies assert that the cry Of gen
eral strike" is pretty much Of false
alarm They point out that all the
locals which look with favor on the
strike had already walked out, and
that the general order had but little
effect

which he says there is a friendly feel

there will be no war between Japan

by the fact that our example has had
some influence in inspiring your de-
velopment. | see no reason why the
two nations should not be mutually
helpful and rejoice in each others
growth and prosperity.
The inflammatory utterances at
tributed to some of your politicians
have excited some resentment here,
but / am sure that the sober iudg-
ment of both countries discounte-
nances any thought of war Neither
government is likely to do anything
of which the other can justly com
plain,
"If any of your citizens residing
here suffer injustice our courts are
open to them just as your courts are
open to our citizens residing there. In
matters Of immigration, each nation,
of course, has, and should, exercise
the right to protect its own interests

impose restrictions except when these
restrictions are necessary.
Speaking as an American. | am
confident that such regulations as
may be made by the United State'

with a view to preserving amicablt

know that race prejudice is an ele.
ment in human nature which cannot
be ignored.
Animated by a desire to do JUS
