Stork Is Unwelcome
Visitor In This
Community
International News Service.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, July s.
A stork escaped from the
Cincinnati Zoo and flew inno-
Gently over a negro settlement
in Avondale, spreading conster-
nation among the dusky wom-
en- who saw he meant to light
there. The zoo manager and
his assistants arrived out of
breath after the truant, to
find things in a hubbub and
the women trying to "shoo"
the long-legged visitor on his
way.
Take dat stork away from
here" one of them implored.
"We don got too many chillun
now."
The stork was captured and
carried back, the superstitious
blacks shrinking from his pres
ence as if the plague were
passing. One of them later
sprinkled ashes about the house
where the bird landed, chant
to herself:
dat stork done conjured dis
here place, and I aims to break
the spell" She finished her
counter magic by mailing a
rabbits foot on the doorstep.

international News Service.

CHICAGO, July 5.-Ranks of
the striking railway shop men
were holding firm, according to
all reports here today as the
strike entered its fifth day. Re-
fusal of the Brotherhood of
Maintenance of Way men to join
in the walk-out, it was indicated,
will make no difference in the
plans of the shopmen.
Shop Men Fight Alone.
The decision of the maintenance
of way men not to strike, how
ever. made 1t evident that the
shops crafts unions will have to
fight their own battle. 1t was
generally believed today that the
clerks, signal men, telegraphers
and stationary fiemen and oilers
would follow the trackmen in their
decision 10 withhold strike action
at this time.
z. NJ. Jewell, president OF the
railway employees department OF
the American Federation Of Eabo",
remained unchanged in his declara-
ton that the strike will be fought
to a finish and that the hattie Is
between the railroads and the men
and the United States railroad
labor board, a negligent factor.
Despite JEWELS stand with rcf-
erence to the labor board, it was
generally conceded today that 1t
was the influence OF the hoard
that prevented 100000 maintenance
Of way men from joining in the
II ~ hh
traCkmen to remain at work came
after day Of conferences between
executives Of that union and the
Ia Dor board. The conferences also
we're held between the trackmcn s
officials and leaders of the shop
craft.
Trackmen Compromise.
The basis upon which the track.
men withhold strike orders that
were prepared and probably would
have been sent out today, includes,
according to f. +. Cradle. head of
the brotherhood, a plan for an inn
mediate request of the carriers for
adjustment of all grievances, in
cluding revision of the wage scale
and the promise of prompt consid.
Grafton by the labor board of all
by direct negotiation with the car
riers. The trackmen continue work
under the July ! wage award IN
der protest with the understanding
that any readjustments in this
wage scale will be made retroactive
to July /. The labor board will
be asked to issue an immediate
ruling absolving the trackmen from
the necessity of performing the
work Of any striking employees.
Credit for persuading the track.
