Companies Expect Stampede Of strk.
ers for Old Jobs.
Chicago, Aug. 19.-Important devel-
opments in the strike Of commercial
telegraphers are looked for today by
both disputants
Confident t the strike has spent
It's force and that the turning point has
been reached the telegraph companies
look for a stampede OF the strikers to
regain their former positions.
Cheered by the reports they have re-
ceived from the various cities affected
the strike leaders on the other hand
are prepared to prosecute the fight
more vigorously than ever.
According to advices received at
union headquarters the messenger boys
and check clerks in New York are
scheduled to go out today. Broker
trims thruout the country have been
given until noon today to sign con-
tracts with their operators or suffer
the consequences of a walk-out.
Three hundred operators employed by
the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company thruout the southwest may
be called out before night unless a
10 per cent increase in wages is grant
ed. That is one Of the trump cards
which president Small expects to play.
Il the order Is issued it will isolate
Chicago from the rest of the country
SO far as telephone communication is
concerned.
A local representative of the COM
pany was surprised last night to hear
of the contemplated strike and said he
understood the whole matter had been
settled by officials in New York. He
declared he understood the settlement
applied to the operators employed by
the company thruout the entire country
as well as in the Chicago office.
More important is the contemplated
plan Of the strike leader to call out the
cable operators, which would isolate
America from the rest Of the world, but
it is admitted that this coup is not like
ly to materialize. The strike leaders
themselves doubt their ability to tie up
the cable service at the most important
points.
The board of directors OF the associ-
ated Press meets in New York today,
when it is expected that terms OF set
tlenent will be discussed. General
Manager Stone has asked for a con-
ference with the former employees of
the association on the eastern circuits,
but the men have been advised by
President Small to make no settlement
that does not include all the operators
of the company.
At the Chicago offices of the Assocf-
ated Press last night it was said that
an early morning wire brought the in
formation that Spokane, Seattle, Walla
Walla and Tacoma had been connected
by thru wires with San Francisco and
Salt Lake and that the entire far west
ern divisioh9 again was open" and
