DRIVERS WANT ONE DAY A
WEEK WITH THEI-R FAMILIES
The drivers who deliver your
bread, pie, cakes, etc., to dealers are
trying to get Sunday, as a day of rest
for themselves, so that they can
spend one day a week with their
families.
They claim that about 85 per cent
. of the employing bakers in Chicago
have agreed to have no Sunday de
livery, that the West, South and"
Northwest sides are practically free
from Sunday and holiday delivery
now, but that a number pi North
Side bakers are insisting on Sunday
delivery.
Notice has now been served on the
. Bakery, Cracker, Pie and Yeast
t Wagon Drivers.' Union, Local 734, and
Robert A. Hughes, president, and H.
. J. Becker business agent, toappear
' before Judge McDonald of the Su
perior Court on Monday morning,
.July 21, when application will be
made for a temporary injunction re
straining the union and its officers
from in any way interfering with the
plaintiff bakers in their Sunday de
livery. .
The plaintiffs are Nicholas M. Mil
ler, Neuman Bros. Baking Co., Rich--ard
Walburg, Frederick Teuchler,
Emil A. Buchholz, Jos. H. Schoenheit,
Carl G. Krueger, Andrew Iversori,
John Verby, Henry Maier and .Wil
helm Raedel as the Maier Co., and
Emil Jaworski and August Widauer
.as Jaworski & Widauer.
The plaintiffs complain that the
union drivers are interfering with
their Sunday delivery and want the
court to enjoin them. -
The-union bakery drivers have is
sued an appeal to the public, asking
the people to help them get one day
a week off, so that they wilt not have
-to get up at from 11:30 p. m. to 4 a.
m. to start making Sunday deliveries.
They say that a few bakers are try
ing to force all of the 1,000 drivers
.to work Sunday, and they ask the
jeople. to buy from the humane
bakers who deliver Saturday so their
drivers can have Sunday off.
President Hughes says that 85 to
90 per cent of the bakers are willing
to give the drivers their Sunday, but
if a few hold out it may force all the
others to insist on Sunday delivery,
too, or lose business to the few; and
that would mean seven days' a week
work for 1,000 bakery drivers.
"RAIL RIDERS"WILL PROBABLY
HAVE TO STAND TRIAL
It is probable that the Vplo, 111,
women who outraged not only their
sex but civilization by riding Mrs.
John Richardson out of town on a
rail after they had practically torn
her clothing from her and then
dumped her into a slimy pooL may
have to stand trial, according to
State's Attorney Daly, of Lake coun
ty. Mrs. Richardson arrived in Chi
cago and hid for a night in a hotel,
then she went to the home of her
sister, hut she is in such a state of
collapse and so badly Injured that it
was necessary to take her to a hos-
pital.
"It is just the gossip of a small
town," she told her sister. "I would
not Join their card games and that
made them angry. Then I came to
Chicago with Mr. Dunnill to buy gro
ceries for my husband, because he
could not come himself, but there was
no foundation for the gossip."
The husband says he has perfect
faith in his wife and he mortgaged,
his store that she might get away
after the episode. He will not talk
very much because his business is in
Vohia, and it is impossible for him to
get away just at present.
Mrs. Richardson's brother, George
KIbler, of Palatine, will go to Volo
and take out warrants for the arrest
of the women implicated in the af
fair. o o
"The physician," says Brown, "is
the man who tells you that you need
change, and then takes all you-have."
