HOPE OF PEACE IN
CHICAGO STREET CAR
SITUATION is SLIGHT

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-"It rests with the
officials of the street car companies
whether we shall have industrial peace
or war in Chicago" said w d. Mahon.

ton of Street and Electric Railway
Employees. today in reference to the
threatened strike of 10000 traction en-
plOyees. AIahOn is hopeful of peace. but
insists that the companies must yield to
the unions demand for increased wages.
A new element of danger was added
to the situation today when the barn
men and power house employees threat
ened to strike if the other employees
went out. This would completely tie up
all systems.
Two conferences were scheduled for
today-one between Mahon and the
strike committee and President John NJ.
Roach. Of the Chicago Railways Com
pany, and another between the union
and President L. A. Busby of the Chi
cago City Railway Company.
These meetings were to determine
whether the traction companies would
agree to arbitrate the mems wage and
shorter hours demands.
