STRIKE THREATENS TO CLOSE
 THE CHICAGO STOCkYARDS


 Chicago March sO.-Arbitration of differences between 300 striking mem bers of the livestock handlers un.on, and the packing companies was re. 1ected today by officers of the union, who, announced y the men would re- main out until their demands for wage increases of from $50 to s45 a month were granted. The men now receive from 80 to S130 a month, the union officers said.
 No shipments of cattle. hogs or sheep were received at the yards to- day, and packing company officers said if the strike continued several days they would be obliged to shut down, forcing 50,00O other workers out of employment.
 The union today called out in a sympathetic strike the private watchmen employed by the packers, leaving the stock yards without fire protection other than that given by the city.
 Federal Judge Alschuler last night refused the request of the union to arbitrate until all strikers had re- turned to work. Federal mediators were expected to arrive tomorrow to use their influence in getting the men back to work.
 c. T. Henkle, general manager of the Union Stock Yards Transit Com pany said the company was willing to arbitrate but that the workers had refused.
 Tn quitting work to enforce new wage demands the men have broken their agreement made last June not to strike until peace was signed" he said.
 Shipments of cattle were diverted today to other cities, but there were still many cars waiting outside the city. The Chicago Junction Railroa d notified other railroads that no live stock o-"ept horses would be accept ed. for delivery in Chicago.

No mention was made in the pre- sentiment of the charges contained in afidavits recently made public by Po- lice Inspector Dominick Henry that Smith, through an intermediary, att tempted to enter into a gambling partnership with him.
 The grand jury reported that the charge of which Assistant District Att torney Smith was exonerated origin ated in a letter sent by Mayor Hylan to Police Commissioner Enright, March 12. 1919. The letter said in part:

 Leaving Lansing creek, we went up seyonymllo canyon on Che Stow ort When through there the val- ley wldons out with torracod benches which seemed Co be hundreds Of feet high. The formation is largely grey slate shalo and plumbago. No formation worthy of mention is in view until Che Laduo Lake region is approached where diorito abounds to and beyond McQuoston lake.
 We lot out outfit at Forbes cabin on Laduo lake. at which place Mr. Forbes has on exceedingly prom .sIng claim. Quite a large number Of locations have been made in that vicinity.
