REASONS GIVEN IN STATEMENT
Committee of Strikers to Confer Willi

Chicago, July 9. Through tho cr
fortB of Chairman Job of tho stato ar
bitration committee, a Borios of meet
ings have been nrranged for today be
tween tho general munagerB of each
of thd roads and a committee of five
men from tho striking freight hand
lers of tho snmo line.
Chairman Job wont to each railroad
separately and askod the general man
ngor If ho would receive a commltteo
of the strikers. In every instance
he was Informed that tho commltteo
would bo received, if it was under
stood that it camo from the employes
of tho road and not from tho freight
handlers' union. Then Mr. Job re
ported to tho men his success with
tho railroads and secured their con
sent to tho meetings. It was ar
ranged that each committee should
consist of flvo strikers. Theso com
mittees will not of themselves bo em
powered to settle tho strike, and k
nny ngreoment 1b made at tho meet
ingB it will be reported back to tho
union this afternoon for approval and
no action will bo taken until It has tho
sanction of tho officers of tho union.
Chairman Job said that ho hnd In
serted the entering wedge for tho set
tlement of tho Btrlko.
President Curran of tho Freight
Handlers union said: "I feel ns
Burod that tho difficulty will bo amica
bly adjusted before night."
Teamsters Not to Aid.
Yesterdny nfternoon tho teamsters
decided not to aid in tho strike
They lssuod tho following:
"Tho Teamsters' National union
stnted over tho signature of the sec
retary, E. L. Hurley, that undor their
agreements now existing with tho
tenm owners of Chlcngo they cannot
take part In the present Btrlko of the
trolght handlers nnd that they arc
powerless to assist in any manner "a
tho Btrlko. Tho, TcifmstorB National
union will carry out to tho fullest ex
tent tho orders thoy receive from
thoir employers an to the handling of
freight and the delivering of tho same.
They cannot afford to violate tho ex
isting agreements nnd conditions,
Tho freight handlers cannot consist
ently call upon them for assistance
In this matter, ns without consultation
or with advice from tho Teani3tcrB'
National union thoy called this
strike."
NATIONAL FUND TO AID MINERS.
Organized Labor and General Public
Will Be Asked to Assist Strikers.
Wllkesbarre, Pa July 9. A na
tional defense fund, to which all or
ganized labor and tho public in gen
eral will be asked to contribute, is
tho latest proposition placed on foot
to help the striking anthracite coal
strikers, If thoy need assistance .n
their struggle for hlghor wages and
n Bhorter work day. Harry White o(
Now York, secretary of tho National
Garment Workers, and member of
the conciliation commltteo of tho Na
tional Civic Federation, had a long
conforenco with President Mitchell,
during which the plan was approved
by the miners' chief, and Mr. White
will at onco begin preparations to
carry out tho plan. Mr. Mitchell
wants it understood, however, that
the miners union will accept no aid
until their own resources are ex
hausted. The National Civic Federation,
which tried so hard to prevent the
strike, has not exhausted all Its
means in an effort to bring about
peaco in tho anthracite coal fields,
Tho Investigation, which was started
soon after tho miners laid down their
picks, Is still In progress and It is
understood the federal government,
through tho department of labor, Is
assisting in this work.

the local Union Pacific shops is more

one of the workmen was assaulted on
Sunday night the crowd that gathers
at night has been continually on the
increase. Tho strikers now assert
that they have all the experienced ma
chinists out but three, and that all
of tho boilermakers, blacksmiths and
coppersmiths have stopped work.
Tho Btrlkers continue to patrol the
grounds outside of the Plnkerton
lines.
