SWEDEN NOW FACES
A COMPLETE TIE-UP
Sailors Join Strike-Railway
Men and Printers
Called Out.

STOCKHOLM. Aug. 5.-Sweden began
to feel the paralyzing grip of the strike
today when the Sailors Union Joined
the walk-out Already shipping is seri-
ously affected and by tonight. when
every member of the union will prob
ably be out, a complete tie-up Of ship
ping in Swedish waters will result.
Another alarming feature developed
today in the decision OF the strike COM
mittce to call out all printers and rail-
road employees. The railway men had
previously decided not tc strike. and 1t
is not known what response they viii
make to the committee demands.
The printers win undoubtedly obey
the order and all newspapers will have
TO suspend. Traffic is at a standsJill
in the city, as but few street cars and
cabs are running, the employees in both
lines having joined the strike.
There is every indication today that the
committee will succeed in its eRdeavOr to
make the strike general and within the
next forty-eight hcurs it is feared that
all the great industries and activities
OF the city will be suspended.
As result of threatened shortage, all
food prices are soaring today, and the
poor, unable to meet the increase, are
subslsting on half Tations. Many of the
remaining stocks of food i'm the city
have been bought up by spectators,
who are holding the food at prohibitive
prices. The city's milk supply is being
distributed by government authorities.
Additional troops arrived here today
The government says il has enough
skilled mechanics In the army TO run
the trains, street cars, telegraph. and
telephone stations and ali other public
utilities.
Committees from the Swedish EN-
ployers' association and the Allied
Trades Ur Jns today notified the labor
ministry that they do not want the
government to attempt to conciliate the
difference between them.
Both sides declare that til great labor
strike that Is now under way must be
fought out and settled by themselves,
lnasmuch as a basis of permanent
peace can be reached III no other way.
The Employers Association today is
sued statement TO the effect that its
chief complaint against the trades
unions was their persistent violation of
agreements The unionists replied by
declaring that employers have CON
spired 10 effect gradual reduction OF
wages in every class of labor
While there has as yet been no VIC
lenCes serious trouble is expected when
food supplies run short. The union
bakers say there will be a shortage of
bread before the end Of the week, while
butchers and provision men who have
joined the strike say that there are not
sufficient stores on hand to last more
than a few days
Everywhere the governments action
is stopping the sale of all intoxicating
liquors IS being applauded, as ii is con
sidered that this will do much to lessen
the seriousness of the strike. Scores O 2
saloOnkeepers who violated the govern
meuts order have been severely punish
d. All saloons are closed.

CAR MEN VOTING
ON STRIKE QUESTION
Chicago Employees Balloting
All Over City-War
Is Prospect.

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-The employees Of
all the surface lines in Chicago are vote
ing today on their proposition to strike
Ballot boxes were distributed through
out the city g nd the men began 10 vote
early. From the sentiment expressed
by the men as they appeared at the
polls and the heavy carly vote cast,
there seems no doubt that the result. Of
the vote viii be a declaration for
walk-Out.
The ballot boxes viii not De opened
until Friday morning when the cognt
viii begin. II = expected hat the re-
suit will be announced tomorrow noon.
In spite OF the war-like disposition
Of the many employees. the sentiment IN
favor OF arbitration and a peacabie set
tlement Of the difficulties has grown
over night The most hopeful indica-
tiOn is the announcement by Chairman
Shadey and Harry NJ. Powell, OF the
State board Of arbitration that they
VIII go to Chicago this afternoon TO
confer with a representative OF the city
in an effort 10 bring the street car
companies and their employees together.
Other peace advocates predicted a
quick settlement following an under
standing reached by Pres dent Mitten,
of the Chicago city Railway Company.
and the employees Of the South Chicago
and Calumet railway. which will serve
as a basis OF further negotiations. Nit
ten practically promised these men a
wage increase, and they have expressed
a disposition to wait before declaring
a strike. While nothing definite has re-
suited from these negotiations. the rep
resentatives Of the South Chicago and
Calumet men will confer again with
Altten tomorrow.
The announcement by the elevated
railway companies that they have
granted nearly all their men an increase
of y cent an hour, is believed to have
removed all possibility OF the elevated
employees going out ia case the surface
line employees strike.
The most sinister indication Of the
past twenty-fOur hours has been the
sudden appearance On tie Street Of p
l. BergaOff, OF New York, fOrTner part
ner of BOSS" Jim Farley. the famous
strike breaker. He would not say wheth-
er he had been retained to furnish
strike breakers, but admitted chat he
was ready to furnish 10000 men if nee
essary.
Edwin L. W Reed, the strike rea ker.
who has already been retained bv the
Chicago City Railway Company, does
not think there viii be a strike.
