CHICAGO NEWSPAPERS
 CRIPPLED BY STRIKE.
Today's llsues Will consist of but Four
 Pages.

Chicago, Feb. 28.-An the Chicago papers will be published tomorrow in abbreviated form, four pages, because or differences betW cen them and tEe Typographical union. The Chicago Publishers association tonight gave out statement explanatory of their side of the controversy.
 The statement alleges that after a recent establishment of a scaIo of wages by the international board of arbitration, a question was raised by printers employed in the offices of the Chicago American and the Chicago Examiner, the printers claiming that they were entitled to be paid on the basis of 131 1-2 ems per line, whereas the stctua1 type measured less than 15 ems per line.
 The columns of the Chicago Exam iner and the Chicago American are slightly narrower than the columns of all the other Chicago newspapers. Therefore in demanding compensation for type set on basis of wider columns, the printers should be paid for work they did not do.
 The managers of these two papers offered to submit the matter to the joint standing committee, but this was refused and a strike called at o'clock this afternoon.
 The following telegram was received tonight by the Chicago Publishers as- sociation:
 Strike unauthorized illegal and without warrant You are authorized to publish this dispatch.

New York, Feb. 2S.-The defense had it's innings today in the trial of the $100, 900 breach of promise suit brought bE Miss Annette Berthe Grunspan against William English Walling. the socialist writer.
