BREWERY MEN
BACK ON THE JOB
Forty Employees of the Rock Is
land Concern Return to
Their Posts Today.
NATIONAL OFFICER HERE
Adam Huebner Comes From Cincin-
natl to Instruct Local Workers
To Arbitrate Grievance.

Although no settlement has as yet
pIoyed by the Rock Island Brew
ing company as brewers and drivers
returned TO their work this morning.
This action was taken upon the advice
of Adam Huebner of Cincinnati, secre-
tary of the National Brewery Work
ers union, who arrived here
this morning. Mr.. Huebner advices
the strikers to return to work, pending
arbitration of the differences, and this
they did.
And so the men and the officers
Of the brewing company this morning
decided that a board of arbitration
would settle the matter. This board
consists of five men, two from the
union, two of the company's
officers and a fifth man who is not in
terosted in either way. The board met
this afternoon at o'clock.
RETAILERS SUPPLY Low.
AS a result of the strike Saturday
number of the retailers were left with
but a small supply of beer, not nearly
enough to handle the business at that
time of the week. II was necessary TO
send wagons TO the brewery for sup
plies. The men went out because the
company, after discharging an en-
ploye, had refused TO reinstate him
upon the demand of the men. The
men refused to arbitrate then, but upon
advice of Mr.. Huebner and other Off
Gals of the organization, altered their
decision.
