The strik- CTS demanded the same pay for their eight hour day as they have received for the eight hour plus the bonus given for two hours over time, with a fifteen per cent. increase. Tho 200 men withdrew the request for a fifteen per cent increase but at first insisted upon receiving what they are now earning in the ten hours with time and a half for overtime. MT. Otterson told them the company could not grant the demand to body of employees but if any desired individ- ually to point out where he was not receiving just wages the company would see if that could be adjusted He said that the wages for the eight hours were the same as paid prior to August for longer day, and he bonus given for the present overtime could not be allowed as the wage for eight hours with overtime on toD of that. He told the men that any grievance would be adjusted as the company did not wish to be unfair in any respect.
 Given Till Tomorrow.
