Hickey says he was not gulity of ex- tortion, but was simply im the per- formance of his duty as business agent of the union collecting wages due the men for wating time, and he demands $10,000 damages. The sult is intended as a test case to determine how far a walking delegate: may go tn the matter of enforcing the payment of wages for the time the men are on strike as a part of the set- tlement of the strike, and the outcome will be &waite’ with greut Interest by labor untonist™, oe COTTON MARKET.
