Garment Workers.

Society women and settlement work
ers in Chicago who were appointed az
pickets, took up the task of aiding the
mensand women garment workers out
on strike against the shops of Hart,
Schaffner & Marx and ether tailoring
esta ablishments.
While Gordon OF police was thrown
about the loop district to prevent any
demonstration and disperse marcherE,
society women, dressed as workers,
marched up and down the sidewalks,
talked to nonunion workers and urged
them to quit.
Several hundred more workers
Joined the strike during the morning.
Many of these were employed in out
lying shops of Hart, Scharner & Marx
They were invited to attend a luncheon
to be given by the members OF the
Women's Trade Union league and
explain their grievances.
Police evidently had been warned
that the settlement workers and soci-
ETY. women had taken up the cause of
the strikers. No attempt was made to
prevent them from talking to employees
on their way to work The women
knew their rights, having been in
structed in the law by former Judge
William H. Barnum, whose daughter,
Miss Gertrude Barnum, is active in the
aid of the strikers.
Chief of Police Steward, fearing Sc
-ious trouble in the strike of the gar
'nt %@rkers, made arrangements for
details at the shops OF Hart,
finer & Marx and other strike
-.~ound concerns in the lsop and out
lying districts.
Riotous and spectacular scenes de-
veloped during the day in the big
strike. In remarkable downtown
demonstration 500 men and women,
changing bells, blowing whistles, toot-
ing horns and constantly beckoping
to tailors of other clothing concerns
still at work who gazed from windows
along their line of march, fought the
police officers, mounted and Oh foet

SP0RTHHG AFFAIRS.
sseseeeeeeeoosoooeeeees,

Negotiations have been opened for a
fight between Jack Johnson and Joe
Jeanette to be held in Paris, on the
day the Grand Prix is run next year
Jeannette's manager, Daniel McKet-
rick, has notified representative of
johnson that one of the clubs In Paris
snnds ready to guarantee tze eolsred
cfampi.n $4,000, win, lose or draw,
providing Johnson will agree to a
isish contest, or $4,000 for bout of
twenty rounds.
Although some of Bat Nelson's S
friends are trying to make out that he
did well to hold off Anton Legrave for
fifteen rounds in his fight at San Fran
cisco, impartial judges declared tbat
there is no chance for Nelson to come
back He was wilder in his swings
than in his fight with Wslgast, and
his judgment of distance seems wholly
gone
Battling Hurley, of Passaic, handed
a painful beating to Willie Beecher in
ten rounds at the National Sporting
Club Of America in New York. In
only one of the ten rounds, the sec
ond, did Beecher have the better of
the milling, while in the third round
the bell saved him from probable
Knockout.
Garry Hermann, head of the Cincn-
natl baseball club, is so confident that
his stand in the contest over the men
traded off by Manager Doom of Phil
adelphia will be supported by the Ma
tional league that the affair hardly
looks like fight" or war at all.
