BRICKS IN CLASH BETWEEN
STRIKERS AND BREAKERS
Want More Money.

Want More Money.
Superintendent Blatz, OF the Blum
enthal plant said today that he had
hoped the men there would not do any
fighting and he was sorry that they
resorted to violence. He said they
made a demand for more pay and the
company feeling that it could not grant
the request, refused to comply with
the demand. The men then struck.
I'VE began to fill the mems places and
intend to go ahead" Mr.. Blatz said
It was said that the men wanted a
81 increase in their wages, making S12
a week instead Of $11, and when Mr..
Blatz was asked whether this was true
he simply said that the demand was
for more wages, but just how much he
did not say.
only about twenty Of the sixty Ital-
ians who went to work this morning
and left at noon TO go 10 their dinner
returned to work this afternoon. All
the men had new boots which they
took home with them.
Machines Take Their Places.
At the plant of the New Castle
Leather Company the places of the
strikers were taken by machines which
the company ordered sometime ago and
intended placing in its new factory
addition now being erected in Twelfth
street. The machines had been in stor-
age and on Wednesday Immediately
after the men went on strike these ma
chimes were uncovered and set up. BY
working night and day the machines
were erected and are now in operation.
Superintendent ]. Writ Willis of the
plant said today that the work had
been caught up with.
Mr.. Willis said that the company
agreed to give the men working on hard
skins 81 a week extra, all they asked. but
the men working on soft skins induced
the others to stay by them also for an In
crease. and as a result all Of them went
out.
More Trouble Hlnted.
Trouble is threatened IN the shop of
the William Beadenkopf Company at
Fourteenth and Walnut streets. Mr.. Bead
enkopf was seen this morning by a re-
porter for THE EVENING JOURNAL
and he had taken up the matter with his
foreman and understood that the beams
men wanted more money. He said how
ever. that no request had been made and
whether one would be made he said he d d
not know.
Asked II he would increase the mems
wages should they make such a demand
Mr.. Beadenkopf said that under existing
conditions the company could not see itl
way clear to do so and in the event OF 4
strike would probably stop soaking skins
and close down until such time as th'
men returned
A beamsman's labor is to handle IN
skins as they come from the liquids q
which they are soaked and cured and t
shave the hair from them.

Shumway betraying any emotion and
when Heileman thanked him for his
close attention Shumway stolidly nod

The prisoners last request was that
his coat be kept buttoned and that his
neck be covered after he was dead SC
that the black scar that would betray
the ignominy of his death would moi
be apparent. His fear Of going to Q

twisted around under his ear. WheI
