Chicago, Sept. 2S-A strike on all
the Hartman lines, including the Illi-
nois Central, will be called as soon as
the presidents of the shopmen's inter-
national unions involved can fix upon
the day and hour, according to ]. W.
Kline, president of the International
Blacksmiths and Helpers union, today
A crisis in the labor troubles on the
Hartman lines was approached today
when it became known that Julius
Kruttschnitt had replied by telegraph
to the so-called ultimatum sent him by
the heads of the international unions
involved. j. W. Kline, president of
the Blacksmiths and Helpers union,
refused to make Mr.. Kruttschnftt' S
message public, but said it would be
followed by decisive action of some
kind probably before nightfall Mr..
Kline's action indicated the vice presi-
dent of the Hartman lines had reiter-
ated his former intentions of not deal
ing with the combined unions.
You can draw your own conclu-
sions," said Mr.. Kline "but I imme-
diately put in long distance telephone
calls for the heads of other interna-
tional unions and will let them know
the railroads reply. We will decide at
once what action to take"
Strike Is Inevitable, Says Kline.
"a strike is inevitable now" said
Kline. "Kruttschnitt replied unfavor-
ably to our final request for a confer
ence and after a talk this morning with
other union preside ents we have decided
that the strike must be called.
"Some favor next Monday as the
proper time to begin actual struggle;
others want to begin Saturday. AS
soon as we decide that question the
word to strike will be sent to all
unions
The strike order is said to be al
ready in the hands Of the local union
heads and all that will be needed is the
flash making it effective. Thirty-five

Mr.. Kline said. I'VE have had a
reply from Mr.. Kruttschnitt and it
was not satisfactory. Mr.. Kruttschnitt
insists that the treatment of the men
is such that he wonders why they
should want to strike. He does not
see why they insist on raising ques-

Dor and capital and it will have to be

The position the roads take is ar
bitrary. Mr.. Kruttschnitt writes of
good wages and the splendid pension

nothing of the Objectionable physical
examination, the personal record sys-

have to begin their seniority at the

Three of the five International un-

lists, were said to have agreed on Sat
urday morning between 10 and 12
o'clock as the hour for a general walk

The mum ber of men who will be af-
fected was roughly estimated at 35,-
