STRIKE IS RENEWED Alleged Violation of Arbitration Agreement by Employers Assigned as Reason. @ | General Order Promulgated By 1 Labor Leaders Aifects All 3 Large Packing Centers. Chicago,July 22.—The packinghousa strike was venewed today at Chicago and all the western packing centerss A violation of the agreement to arbi- trate by the packinghouse proprietors Cot e Sl =e o (R iy is assigned as the reason. Three thousand cattle butchers reported for !work at the Chicago stock yards this ! morning. Only one-half were wiven | places and thereupon all refused to work, The men reported in a body at at the Old Ball Grounds. { Union headquarters and a general or- ider for the renewal of the strike was | then issued. Grounds will be illuminated with 50---Arc Lamps---50 producing Chicago, July 22.—TFifty thousand butcher workmen who quit work July 12, paralyzing the meat industry of the country, will go back to their posts at once. While they continue peace- fully at work a board of arbitration will pass judgment upon the conten- tions of the laborers for higher wages and less arduous working conditions and the decision of the arbitrators will setile the issues of the great strike. Around the Chicago stoek yards there is rejoicing among the strikers { as well as the stockmen and packing . interests. The unionists, who had looked forward to seeing the strik spread in a sympathetic movement in- | volving all the mechanical trades and perhaps the teamsters and firemen, learned with relief that instead of the greater strike there was to be peace in packing town. DMany of the strik- ers, however, ment that their s them to lose eight wages, had failed to decide their de- mands for higher wages or make it | certain that all would be reinstated without greater loss of time. During the day throngs gathered about the entrances to the yards to discuss the settlement and there were murmurings against its terms. Some workers wanted to go back without delay and few could understand ap- parently why the question of wages, s0 vital to them, had not been de- cided. “We are exactly in the same posi- tion we were when we struck,” said one man wearing the button of the cattle butchers’ local. “The laborers had been out from 18 cents to 174 cents an hour and the union voted to strike to get back the agreement that expired May 28. Now the men go back to work—or as many of them as can get back—and the wage question is to be left t6 arbitration, after all.” A statement relative to the strike gettlement was issued during the day, canymv lhe signatures of the pack- =4 tho neace maemaran. 50,000 candle power.

The main point under discugsion and upon which a settlement hung for several days was the question ®i retaining the nonunion men hired by the packers to take the places of these on strike. This point was insisted on by the packing zom- panies and until conceded by Mr. Don~ nelly .no settlement could have been made. In tlie agreement made the packers reserved the privilege of re- taining in their employ all the em- ployes that were hired while the strike lasted. This guaranteed to those the fair treatment they deserve and gain- ed for the packers one of the points for which they contended and for which they steod out so long. “The privilege of arbitration within the time limit of forty-five days covers the question of discrimination and is in no way infended to guarantee to the striking employes that they will be taken back and given the places now filled by nununion help.” During the &lternoon a serious dis- turbance occuried in the packinghouse district, two men narro; ly escaping death as the resilt-of & A crowd gathered in fronit of a snloon and soon a fight was stavted. Hobert Keating, an ice dealer, ‘accol ied by two employes, Clargnce Hall and John White, were pagsing in-amn jee wagon, when some one jpgan shooting, Keat- ing and Hall were wounded, the for- mer receiving afbullet in his right leg which severed u#n artery. .Hall was shot in the left fuot. The mneise of the shooting frighteged the horses and they ran away.; The mob fhen dis- persed. There Were numerous dis- turbances among:bands of strike sym- pathizers and nosunion men, who, in fright, had deserisd the ya-ds. but no one was severcly injured and no ar- rests were made. s Beef PricesiAgain Normal.

Force Their Way: Through Highest Pass orr’mad. Gyantse, Tibet, 22.—The British mission to Tibet, #8der the command of Colonel Youn%k}‘fi d, on July 18 forced a passage éeclad Karola, the highest pass on the road to L’Hassa. A less stubborn defense was made than was expected. The Tibet- ans retired early in the engagement, sniping the advancing British soldiers from the neighboring cliffs. The British are now twenty-nine miles from L’'Hassa. CROWDS CONTINUE TO ARRIVE. Registration for Rosebud Lands Up- wards of 97,000. Bonesteel, 8. D,, July 22.—The reg- istration for homesteads on the reser- vation was extremely large the past twenty-four hours, aggregating 15,000. The registration to date is upwards of 97,000 and immense crowds continue to arrive on every train. SHEERAN SECOND ,CHOICE. Wanted for Democratic Chairman if Gorman Declines. New York, July 22.—If Senator Gor- man will not take the chairmanship of the Democratic national committee the men who have been pushing him for the place will turn their attention to William F. Sheehan and try to se- cure his election by the national com- mittee. The friends of Judge Parker are anxious to have Mr. Gorman, but they recognize that his declination means that the place cannot be forced upon him. They say, however, that Mr. Sheehan must accept if Judge Par- ker insists, or if his immediate advis- ers say that he must take the place. The reason why either Gorman or Sheehan is preferred over Thomas Taggart of Indiana is understood ta be because of the belief that either of them would be able to command the attention of Hastern business men and secure a large campaign fund. While the judge’s advisers say that Tag: gart will be amply provided for in an advisory capacity they think that eith- er Gorman or Sheehan, with the wide knowledge they have of campaign methods in the East, would be better able to conduct the campaign. WILL BE HEARD IN THE FALL. Supreme Court Grants Writ of Error in Burton Case. ‘Washington, July 22.—Justice Brew- er of the United States supreme court has granted a writ of error to the Unit- ed States district court of the Eastern district of Missouri in the case of Sen- ator Joseph R. Burton, convicted in St. Louis of accepting a fee for serv- ices before the postoffice department ‘while a member of the United States senate. The case will be reviewed by the United States supreme court in the fall. SOUTH DAKOTA LAUNCHED. Uncle Sam’s Big Armored Cruiser En- ters the Water, San Francisco, July 22.—The ar- mored United States cruiser South Da- kota was launched at the Union Iron company’s yards late in the afternoon. Miss Grace Herried, daughter of Gov- ernor Herried of South Dakota, chris- tened the yessel. The armored cruiser South Dakota is a sister ship of the California, which was launched three months ago at the yards of the Union iron works. The two ships are almost identical and are the largest war vessels ever launched in a Pacific ocean port. Each Trepresents the latest type of efficiency, speed and power. The engines, which are expected to develop 23,000 horse- power, will give high speed and great facility in maneuvering at sea. - The coal capacity of the bunkers admits of a radius of operations considerably. greater. than that of my ‘war vessel 'now in-the navy. _ The South Dak f p and - had no intention of infringing on the RUSSIANS TO YIELD Expected to Release the Malacéa In Accord with Great Britain’s Demand. Assurance Asked That Munitions Were English Govern- ment Stores. Bt. Petersburg, July 22.—The Asso- clated Press has an excellent reason for stating that Russia will yield in the Malacca case, release the steamer in accordance with the British demand and express regret at her detention. The exact status of the case at pres: ent is as follows: Count Benckendorff, the Russian am- bassador to Great Britain, has asked of Lord Lansdowne official assurance that the munitions on board were Brit- ish government stores. If this is given orders will instantly be issued to re- lease the vessel. At the same time Great Britain will be notified that ships stopped by Russia whose mani- fests are not in order will be held. Russia will maintain the legality of the status of the Smolensk and St. Pe- tersburg as warships. They are under the orders of the admiralty and wera commissioned by the admiralty’s in- structions. Under the regulations of the volunteer fleet Russia claims that ships belonging thereto can be con- “verted into warships without previous notice, upon orders from the admi- ralty. The suggestion is made that if Great Britain persists in raising the issue of the status of the volunteer fleet cruisers now in the Red sea, Russia Wwill offer to refer the case to the ar- bitration tribunal at The Hague. WILL REGTIFY ARY MISTAKE RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR TO LON-| DON CONFERS WITH FOR- EIGN SECRETARY. London, July 22.—The Associated Press learns that Count Benckendorff, the Russian ambassador, at a confer- ence with Foreign Secretary Lans- downe, made what may be considered to be a preliminary reply to the Brit- ish protest against the seizure of tha! steamer Malacca. He assured the| foreign secretary that his govemmeut' rights of Great Britain or any other neutral power and tHat if a mistake had been made in the. seizure of the Malacca unquestionably the steamer| ‘will immediately be restored and dam- ages would be paid. The ambassador pointed out that it was unreasonable to suppose that the| Malacca had been seized without the: commander of the St. Petersburg hav- ing good grounds to believe that she, had contraband on board. Unless this| suspicion is efiectually disproved the| matter will have to go before a prize court, which procedure Great Britain herself follows. In the meantime Russia will make full investigation in order to establish definitely the grounds on which the commander acted.” The ambassador also informed Lord Lansdowne that ha had telegraphed the British protest to St. Petersburg and said it would re- ceive the immediate attention of f.hl emperor and Count Lamsdorff, § $Eé§e§§§§§ EEEE Géé&i—&&&é&& " ...New Tailor Shop...
