Chicago, July 26.—Chicago’s sym- pathetic general strike at the stock yards, predicted by its leaders to be the greatest and most expensive this country has ever known, began at 10 a. m, when thousands of teamsters, cattle handlers and Wnembers of the mechanical trades quit work and made a grand rush for the gates leading from the busiest square mile of build- ings, yards and pens in the world. The first big defection came when 700 men, including the scalers and pen cleaners, employed by the Union Stock Yards and Transit company, re- fused to work further. The first to go were the handlers and this eliminated the usefulness of the teamsters and they followed. As they passed out of the Dbig gates at Exchange avenue they were eted with cheers by the thousands of strikers gathered in the vicinity. Prior to this spectacular exodus came small strikes in the various plants, including carpenters, firemen, elevator men, machinists, etc.,, but these did not have the effect of tieing up the plants, since such action had been anticipated, and as often as a union man stepped out a nonunion man or a union man who had deserted his organization was there to take his place. Business Agents Call Strike. The strike, although general, was conducted without the official authori- zation by the heads of the various un- ions, but solely upon the order of busi ness agents, who refused to await the action of the peace conference. The joint peace conference of the teamsters and packers at Morris & Co.’s offices ended about noon without making much, if any, progress. The packers demanded that the union men come to them with a definite proposi- tion. The union committee returned to headquarters to confer with the butchers and allied trades in the hope, it was said, that something definite in the way of a new proposal could be decided upon. One of the labor representatives, Barney Cohen, president of the State Federation of Labor, contended that the prospects for the settlement of the strike were not hopeless. He de- clared that concessions would yet be made by both sides. Notwithstanding President Colen’s optimism adjourn ment of the conference between the packers and the teamsters’ represen- tatives gave little hope for a settle- ment of the trouble. The union’s emissaries left the pack- ers with the avowed intention of se- curing jurther instructions from Presi- dent Donnelly, after which, they said, they would again call upon the em- ployers. 'The packers were in an un- commuuicative mood and merely de- clared that nothing deflnite had been accomplished and that no time for a further conference had been ap- pointed. Allowed to Finish Day’s Work. After the adjournment of the peace conference the fact developed that the sympathetic strike had been declared officially authorized by the proper boards of all allied trades at the stock yards, with the exception of the pack- inghouse teamsters. The engineers and firemen, to whom word could only be sent with great difficulty, were al- lowed to stay at their posts until 6 p. m. In all other departments the strike was actually in effect for two hours or more before the official sanc- tion was made public. It developed that, learning the ap- parent hopelessness of an agreement, the representatives of the allied trades, urged by President Donnelly, adopted resolutions commanding the chiefs of all affected unions to enter the yards and call upon every organization man to quit and join in a general strike. It was this condition that the teamsters’ committee of eight found when its members returned from Morris & Co.’s offices at noon. Immediately there was another conference between the com- mittee of eight, the allied trades body and representatives of the Butchers’ union. It was still the hope that ar- rangements could be made for another meeting with the packers. The precipitation of the sympa~ thetic strike seemingly caused no con- sternation among the packers. For days they had been bringing into the eity hundreds of skilled men, many of whom had been put to work, and oth- ers of whom had been held in reserve, The packers claim that the strike or- der was not generally observed by the men working at the plants.
