REPORTS CONFLICTING

WASHINGTON, June II. = Union
leaders claimed that about 1900 or 95
per cent of the forces employed by the
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
companies here walked out today in
compliance with the strike order issu-
ed several days ago by S. ]. Konen-
kamp, president of the Commercial
Telegraphers' Union. Company Off
cials early today had no definite fig
ures on the actual number of men who
left their keys but estimated it at
much below the figure claimed by the
strike leaders. They claimed service
was not seriously crippled.
Postoffice department officials re-
iterated the statement that no action
for the settlement of the strike would
be taken by the department and the
situation now is entirely in the hands
of private managements.
With the resolution of Senator Kel-
logg passed yesterday, which provides
for the return of the wire lines to
their original owners forthwith"
scheduled for speedy action in the
house Thursday, there was consider
able speculation today as to what eff,
feet the action of the government in
turning back the systems to private
ownership would have on the strike
Some leaders in the house are said to
have expressed belief the strike may
necessitate some changes in the re
turn bill as drafted.
