$4,000 Idle in
SRurnp' Unions
Railway Strike
25 Roads in the Chicago
Switching District Are
Affected; Hundreds Lose
Jobs i'll the Stockyards

CHICAGO, April 7.-An unauthorized
strike Of railroad employees, which
started week ago in the Chicago
switching district by the discharge of
yard conductor, tonight had spread
until it had affected twenty-five rail-
roads and in Chicago had thrown more
than $4,000 men out Of work, either d-
rectly or indirectly.
More than 10000 union railroad men
in Chicago and several hundred at Buff
falo and in Champaign, Ill.,, were on
strike. Many hundreds of men in Chi
cago packing houses were thrown out
of work for lack of livestock.
Two "outlaw" organizations, branded
by the established brotherhoods as
"rump' unions, have sprung up to chal-
lenge the right of the labor heads to
lead their men.
Unions Seek Strikebreakers
In the face of this opposition from
within, the Brotherhoods of Engineers,
Railway Trainmen, Firemen and En-
ginemen and the Switchmens Union of
North America pledged their support

walkout, and to that end union railroad
men throughout the country have been
urged to report to Chicago to serve as
strike breakers.
Managers of twenty-five railroads in
the Chicago district affected by the
strike to-day agreed to give brother
hood officers at least another day in
which to restore normal conditions
and declared themselves confident that
the unions would succeed
Some union leaders voiced the same
but others declared the
strike fever was Sin the air." that even
the most conservative men were quit

The Brotherhood of Engineers and
the Brotherhood of Firemen and En-
glnemen entered the struggle as a re-
suit of the walk-out of engineers and
tlrcmen of the Chicago and Northwest
crn, and several other railroads.

railroads could not grant wage in

France was forced to act when
faced not only by direct violation of

geographical position, but also by the

Railroads Defy
Strikers; Insist
Port Is Open
Erie Manager Declares the
companies Are Not Even
lnterestedin Compromise,
as ''Walk-Out Is Broken''

Unofficial peace overtures made bv
union leaders In charge of the harbor
strike were all but ignored by the rail
roads last night. Railroad officials said
'here was nothing to settle, and that
as far as they were concerned. the
strike was over.
Thomas B. Healey, president of the
Marine Worke' = Affilation, said the
strike could be settled if the railroads
would agree to the following terms ::
"All men now on strike, including the
twenty-one crews of seven Erie tugs
and lighters who were discharged last
week, to be taken back; the railroads
10 give written guarantees that all
tneir freight transportation by water
snail be done under eight-hour- day
conditions for one year"
j. J. Mantell, New York manager of
the Erie Railroad and chairman of the
Railroad Managers Association, de-
clared that the railroads were not only
not interested in any terms of settle
ment, but were now in position to
say that the strike was broken and
that conditions in the harbor were rap
idly approaching normal. He backed d
up his assertion with the statement
that all ferries were running on prac-
tically regular schedules, milk, food
and other perishablcs were moving un-
hampered into the city and the freight
situation was clearing up faster than
had been expected.
He added that the railroad will have
fifty tugs in service to-day out of a
total Of 145, and that 1929 carloads of
freight were moved across the river
yesterday, against $50 the day before.
LET me say" continued Mr. Mantell,
"that the guarantees demanded by the
union leaders are all bunk. The rail-
road law provides for an eight-ho
day. We have never violated that law,
and the companies have already as
s1red their employees they have every
intention of abiding by it. With re-
gard to reinstating the men on the
tugs sold by the Erie, these tugs are
no longer ours and we have no use for
the lighters, which are for sale"
The strikers went over the situation
with their leaders at meeting at
Webster Hall yesterday morning, and
later issued threat Of new strike
against the Independent boat owners.
who DO about GO per cent of the bust
ness IN the port. Healy said that
the walk-out on the independents
would be called as soon as their
present agreement calling for a ten
hour day expires, and that the men
would demand an eight-hour day.
