PACKERS' STRIKE IS OFF AND iBITRfIS SOUTH ST. PAUL MEN HEAR THE GOOD NEWS President Donnelly Sends Word of Settlement at Close of Dull Day The strike is off, and the men will return to work in the South St. Paul stock yards Friday morning. The South St. Paul strikers last evening received the news that the questions causing the walk-out had been submitted to arbitration with the greatest enthusiasm, and the official announcement from the national offi cers in Chicago was awaited with the greatest eagerness. When the first announcement was made it was received with some doubt, the strikers apparently fearing that the news was not correct. With con firmation the tired pickets took on new life and discussed the situation in an animated manner. Nine days of strik ing had somewhat exhausted the men, many of whom had, during the entire time, been on picket duty on an aver age of sixteen hours out of each twen ty-four. The large number of pickets gath ered about the headquarters could not ( suppress their elation, and with a glad cry they sent the news of the settle ment to the non-union men in the plant, most of whom spend the even ing hours sitting on the fence sur rounding the buildings. Being in doubt as to the nature of the settlement in detail, the men on the inside wondered whether they were being sacrificed, but the strikers did not worry. They held that Swift & Co. need all the non-union men now employed and all the strikers also, and in the flush of success many of the union members expressed the belief that the men who had accepted work •would be permitted to become mem bers of the union and retain their po sitions. News Pleases All Parties The news of the settlement was also gladly received by the officials of Swift & Co., and by Gen. M. D. Flower, president of the Stock Yards company, who joined with the officials of the union in expressing the greatest satis faction with the end of a strike that apparently threatened to be tedious and long fought. Not one of the men mentioned had any idea that there was any definite prospect of a settlement so soon. Without exception the officials of the company and of the union said that they would abide by the agreement made in Chicago, and that the South St. Paul men will return to their places at the same time as do the Chicago men. The union men were loud in their piaises of the masterful manner in which President Donnelly had con ducted the strike, and the company officials said that, as the grievance really existed in Chicago, and that there had been no feeling in the mat ter in South St. Paul, they would not feel in the least embarrassed in tak ing back the men who walked out Tuesday of last week. "The announcement that the strike is settled is the most welcome news that has come to me in many months," paid President George Willis, "and you can rest assured that so far as the members of the South St. Paul union are concerned they will carry out the agreement made in Chicago to the let ter. The pickets will be removed from around the plant as soon as orders to this effect are received from President Donnelly. As the strike was ordered from Chicago and has been settled there, the South St. Paul union mem bers will not return to work until or dered to do so by the authority that ordered the walkout" Mr. Steep More Than Pleased "I am more than pleased," «aid Business Agent George Steep, "for the crucial time in the conduct of the strike had arrived, and I feared that there would be some difficulty in con trolling the men. When I first re ceived news that the strike is off I was out making a personal roundup of the pickets, and was inducing them to give up their clubs. It has been my expe rience that after the first week of a strike it requires the greatest care on the part of the officers of the union to preserve order, and on this line I have been busy for the past two days. "In my opinion the South St. Paul men will not return to work before Friday morning. «r They are tired from long hours of picket duty, besides which it will be necessary to hold a meeting of the union tomorrow and officially declare the strike at an end. When the men go back it will be in a body, and not a few at a time. The men have been warned that their con-* duct from the time of the receipt of the news of the settlement until they go to work will count for or against them, as with the signing of the agree ment, as I understand it. they virtual ly become employes of Swift & Co. and are subject to the rules of the concern." "It will be a pleasure to again have a full force of men," said J. S. Bangs, manager of the Swift plant, "and cer» tainfy I am pleased that a settlement has been affected. The South St. Paul men had no grievance, but were strik ing to uphold the stand taken in Chi cago, and therefore the workmen can be restored to their former places with Young Hair That means rich hair, heavy hair, no gray hair.

': ■:' "'■' One of the Few Pleasing Sights in South St. Paul During the Strike a complete absence of feeling preju dicial to them. Labor troubles are a great menace to business, a strike par ticularly affecting the productive pos sibilities of a plant of the size of the one at South St. Paul, and it will bfc a great relief to have the old men re turn and have them take up the du ties they so well understand. Will Abide by Chicago Agreement "Of course we shall abide by what ever agreement was made in Chicago and will live up to its provisions. It is doubtful if, for a few days, we can put all the men to work, as the receipt of stock has been light since the strike and will doubtless continue so, to~~som& extent, for a few days after the official announcement of the settlement, but the old men will be given employment as fast as the receipt of live stock will justify." "The past week has been a strenu ous one," said M. D. Flower, president of the Union Stock Yards company, "and it is a satisfaction to know cer tainly that the difficulty between the men and the strikers has been adjusted, and that business at South St. Paul will be allowed to assume its former volume. With the strike settled I would like to advise all stockmen that we will buy all live stock at the high est market price, and that particularly choice butcher cattle are needed. Such stock will command a good price, in my opinion, and there could not be a better time to ship." The last day of the strike at South St. Paul was the most quiet of the nine in which the men and the com pany contended for mastery, the block ade 'inving- been raised according to the order of National President Michael Donnelly. Entrance Was Not Blocked At no time in the day was the en trance to the plant blocked, although pickets were constantly maintained and an effort made to induce persons desiring to enter the plant in search of work to forego such intention. In all but about fifteen cases the arguments were successful, the workmen being induced to seek other employment. The picket system, as usual extended around the works, and at the end of the day, and before the news of the settlement had arrived, the union offi cers expressed their satisfaction with the outcome of the first day without a blockade, and promised that the prac tice would not be renewed. An addi tional telegram was received from President Donnelly, in which he reit erated his former command that the laws of the state be obeyed. The signed statement of Judge C. C. Doss reflecting on Mayor Lytle com manded much attention and was one of the principal topics of conversation. Judge Doss stood by his assertions and reiterated that the statement contained his opinions of the mayor and that he would under no circumstances retract. Mayor Lytle denied a rumor generally circulated that he intended to have Judge Doss arrested on the charge of criminal libel, but that it was possible that he might seek legal satisfaction from the judge after the settlement of the strike, and gave out a statement in reply to that made by Doss. Mayor Lytle said: Gives Doss the Retort Courteous "Replying to the statement of C. C. Doss concerning my conduct and re specting me personally, I will say "My conduct during the strike was vindicated on the very day on which Doss' charges were published. Since the walkout I have contended at all times that complete order would be re stored unless arbitrary action was taken by the authorities before the men had come to the conclusion that they had no right to blockade the street. The piping of Doss cannot take from me the credit of having correctly sized up the situation and acting in a man ner that caused the crisis to be passed without serious trouble. If a hot-head, like the judge would have us believe that he is, had been in charge there would have been a riot that might have resulted in the loss of life." Business Agent George Steep, for the union, said that the demand of Presi dent Donnelly that the blockade be raised at once and not again be put in force will be carried out in the fu ture. He further said: "Of course the members of the union will bow to the demand of the presi dent, and there will be no further blockading. The outcome of the first day without a blockade has proven so satisfactory that no effort will be made to restore the practice, and in fact there is no desire on the part of the men to have the condition restored. "To our minds it was proven that the claims of the officials of the company that there are a great many men ready to go to work was not well founded, and we contend that not more than eight new men took advantage of the free entrance to the plant. More than this number came with the intention of going to work 4 but when we showed them our average earnings for the three months before the strike they were willing to go in search of other work." Company's Officers Surprised The officers of the company were evidently surprised upon their arrival to find that the blockade had been abolished and that entrance to the plant was not blocked. They went in without being stopped by the strikers standing about. When John Weir, who has been 1 member of the union, started along the street entering the gates he was ap proached by a cumber of the strikers THE ST. PAUL GLOBE. THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1904 and was urged to forego his determina tion to go to work. In the quarrel that ensued the epithet of "scab" was ap plied to Weir, following whch, it is claimed, that he struck Michael O'Brien, one of the strikers. Weir was arrested and taken to the police sta tion. Supt. Burns gave $25 bail to guarantee Weir's appearance for trial. Thomas Lawler, one of the strikers, appeared at the court room window while arrangements were being made for Weir's release, and pushing his head through the window called out: "What's the matter with making that man give bail. I have not seen the col or of his money, and he is no better than any other man." "Keep still, the court is in session," cautioned Chief of Police McCormick. "I won't keep still," persisted Law ler. "That hungry-looking guy should be compelled to put up the money." "Arrest that man," commanded the judge. Whereupon Lawler bolted down the street. Chief McCormick went to the door, but did not pursue Lawler. Engineer Shows Sympathy A Great Western switch engineer demonstrated his sympathy for the strikers in a decided manner. A cou ple of boxes of meat, to be taken to St. Paul Park, were put on the engine according to a custom. While the en gine was in the yards the engineer de liberately kicked the boxes from his engine, and they were taken back to the depot. The engineer was cheered by the strikers, but went about his business without comment and refused to -give his name. Al Haynes, the man accused of hav ing called for a rope with which to hang Charles Fitch, was-dismissed by Judge Doss, Mr. Fitch declining to prosecute, and Wenzel Nechville, charged with assaulting a non-union man, was taken to Hastings for trial by Sheriff Grisim, who made the ar rest. The evening was spent by the men in celebrating, and it would have been difficult to find in the country a hap pier set of workmen. Without excep tion they expressed themselves as anx ious to return to their old places with out delay, it being the unanimous dec laration that doing picket duty is harder work than that required in the packing plant. It was admitted by some of the men that as the days dragged by without a settlement they had become somewhat doubtful as to the outcome. Several of the men asserted that they made up their minds to seek other employment, it being impossible to find one who would admit that he contemplated re turning to work before an agreement had been reached. A dummy dressed to represent a non-union man was carted about the streets by the happy unionists, who, although they indulged in considerable hilariousness, were orderly. The pick ets remained on duty throughout the night, and a number of men left the Swift plant. As these passed by they were closely scrutinized by the pickets. The union men declared that fully half of the non-union men will have de serted their posts by morning, prefer ring to leave their employment to fac ing the union men when they return. Doss Has Striker Arrested Thomas Lawler, one of the strikers at South St. Paul, went to the office of Judge C. C. Doss, of the municipal court, last evening, and owing to the trouble that the men had previously a quarrel at once ensued. Doss claims that Lawler threatened to strike, and Lawler is very sure that the judge drew a revolver and said that he would shoot. The judge exer cised his authority and called upon Patrolman Robinson to place Lawler under arrest. The officer did as di rected, and Lawler was turned over to his father, Patrick Lawler, the city jailer, who was compelled to put his son in a cell. The incident aroused much feeling and it is said that Lawler will today secure from County Attorney O'Keefc a warrant for the arrest of Judge Doss. It is claimed by the friends of Mayor Lytle that an -effort will be mads to oust Judge Doss from office in consequence of the attack made on Lytle by Judge Doss. Mayor Lytle was in St. Paul last night, returning from White Bear when informed that the strike had been settled, and started at once for South St. Paul, saying that he desired to see the people and have them recog nize at last that he had acted wisely in pursuing a conservative course in refusing to run the risk o$ creating a Gov. Van-Sant heard the first news of the settlement of the strike from a Globe reporter. "It gives me more pleasure than anyone can understand to learn that the strike has been settled," he said "It is certainly the best news that could be heard, and I am more than glad that there was no violence worth mentioning at South St. Paul on the part of the strikers. It is certainly a fine termination.of what looked like a most serious struggle between the men and the managers of the packing plants. I trust that the negotiations will come to a successful termination and that work will be immediately re sumed at South St. Paul. The settle ment of the strike will be a great re. lief to many men not directly inter ested in" its outcome, for it jeopardized interests which everybody wants to sei* prosper, for on them depends largely the prosperity of the country." STEADY DEMOCRAT, SAYS CLEVELAND Continued From First Page be sufficient to fill our measure of sat isfaction so as to cause us to forget any fears of trepidation that may have vexed us during the days just past. Sentiment Has Changed "I do not overlook the fact that two clear and unimpeachable verdicts of the people stand recorded in favor of the gold standard, and that its perpe tuity has been secured by federal en actment; but I insist that, hi refusing to indulge in any further free silver or double standard vagaries, the con vention did not, on account of existing conditions, merely make a virtue of necessity, but that it voiced instead an actual and wholesome change in sen timent among the rank and file of De mocracy. "Herein is found abundantly suffi cient cause for gratitude and congratu lation on the part of all those who love true Democracy. I want to go further than this, and to express a rev erpnt belief that certain convention utterances, apparently untoward, have worked together for Democracy's good and that a happy outcome has been reached through a leading wiser and more certain than the wit of man could have devised. "Senator TiHman and I have occa sionally differed; but v-i.«. >; h? will take no offense if I applaud and give hearty concurrence to his expression of the belief that 'Providence has taken kindly hold on our affairs.'"
