Imllnnn,
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 31. Michael Don
nelly, president of the Amalgamated Meat
Cutters and Dutcher Woikmon of North
America, gave out an oiTlclat statement
today explaining tho movement started at
Chicago and Omaha: for an Increase In the
wages of the skilled union butchers nt nil
tho principal packing tenters. Mr. Don
nelly said that the proposition had been laid
before tho packers In tho form of a re
quest nnd they could not be asked for a
reply until after Labor day.
It applies only to butchers and their
helpers In the boef-kllling departments of
the packing houses and Involves an nvorage
of 10 per cent In the wages of tho men em
ployed on the cattlo beds. The membership
of tho organization In all the cities whero
It Is represented Is 16,000. At Kansas City
l.COO men will be benefited by the duvance
In wages If it Is granted. No Increase is
asked for men employed In other depart
ments. The Increase would raiso tho wai;es of
sqme of tho workmen, such as the skinners
nnd splitters, from the present schedule of
45 cents an hour to 30 cents.
Mrt Donnelly said the relations with tho
packers were pleasant and that they would
be given ample time to consider. Ho would
not say what action will bo taken In th)
event that the requect Is denied.
First at Chicago.
The request, as Mr. Donnelly calls It, v.'its
made first at Chicago. It was laid before
the Armour management there with the
view of covering the Armour plauts at
Kansas City, Chicago and Omaha. It was
made on .Nelson, Morris &. Co. ' to cover
their branch houses in St.. Joseph nni St.
Louis; on Swift & Co. to cover tho plants
at Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City, St. Jo
seph and St. Louis; on Cudahy'a at Omaha
to cover both that point and Kansas City;
the Hammond Tacking company &t Ham
mond, Ind., to include St. Jospb, and tho
Omaha Packing company at Omaha, which
hat Its cattle killed at the Fowler packing
bouse in Kansas City, The only Kansao
City packing houso which was served with
a copy of the request was tho Schwarz
child & Sulzerberg Packing company. This
company has its headquarters in this rlty.
The 400 union coopers employed hi Kan
sas City on Thursday presented a request
for an increaee of wages from 27',3 to 30
cents an hour. The Cudahy company at
once discharged tho ton ccopers in Its cm
ploy. Ono hundred and twenty-five Cudahy
butchers arc on strike. '

PROHIBITIONISTS ARE ALL AT SEA
Gordon's Uvll Star Gets Into Ascend
ency ami Tlu-rc Aro llrenkcrit
Ahead Story In lletall of How
It llnpiicnoil.
Omaha kept up Its gait by taking the best
game of tho season from Dcs Moines yes
terday afternoon. For eight Innings Gor
don had tho Prohibitionists clear nt sea
with his big drop ball. But two men saw
third until tho ninth Inning. Tho blue
birds played almost perfect ball behind
him. In tho sixth Fleming misjudged
Dammann's lino Ily, allowing blm two bases
on what should havo been an easy out.
Calhoun In tho seventh dropped a wide
thrown ball by Gondlng. Up to tho ninth
Inning Omaha kept tho lead by ono lonely
run. The Iowa visitors had failed to push
a man ncross the plate. Everything had
been going along lovely and no ono saw any
reason why It should not continue for ten
minutes longer.
But somehow Gordon's evil star got In
tho ascendency nnd there seemed to be
breakers ahead. After llddllng around
awhllo ho finally gave Thlel, the first man
up In tho last Inning, a base on balls.
Warner got a hit past third and Hlnes
bunted. Oordon tried to throw tho man
out at third. Tho decision was closo and
Ebrlght gave It to the runner. Stownrt ap
parently had forgotten the quality of ball
Gordon had boon pitching and Immediately
took him out, substituting Coons. Wcrden
hit a fast one to little Jimmlc, who threw
Thlel out at tho plate. Gondlng doubled
to first to catch Werdcn. Big Perry Jumped
from side to side In a wild attempt to block
tho ball. Elbrlght called hlra out.
Perry wonted to start something, but
subsided when ho saw a flno In Bight.
O'Leary hit to McAndrews nnd
Mac tried to kick It over tho fence.
Warner scored. Everything looked blue.
BUI Rourke got so excited ho tried to
throw his grip to tho umpire Instead of tho
ball. Cnllahon cleared the atmosphere u
little by popping up a llttlo "ante-over" to
Toman.
It was do or dlo now. Fleming was up,
and ho did nothing but strlko out. Cal
stepped up with his broomBtlck and boostoJ
a llttlo teaser over Perry's head. But It
bought a small sack. Letcher hit ono to
Dammnnn, who tried to outshine "Mac" a.
tho kicking gamq. Both runs were safe.
It was up to tho curly-headed third base
man to redeem himself. Ho did It by forc
ing Cal out at third. Everyono settled
themselves down to get doublo tholr
monoy's worth. And they got It, but not
In the manner expected.
Little Jlmmlo, tho Philadelphia heavy
weight, picked up Cal's big trco and
dragged It out In front of Dammann. It was
so big Dammann couldn't miss It, so Jlm
mlo got a clean one to right, scoring
Letcher and winning tho game.
In the second Inning, McAndrews gathered
In a lino hit off Callahan's bat that camo so
hard It bounced clear to Stewart, making a
double play. Everyone thought he threw It,
but-Iac said confidentially It simply came
so hard It, bounced clear to Al. Anyway It
was a pretty play, even It he did "English"
the ball over to the second pocket. Score:
