IDLE MEN jSOMEJ " HANDS' AT
WORK ON PERISH A1BLE FREIGHT
Chicago July 8. The freight hand
lers striked which called out 9000 'men
yesterday and . seriously curtailed fthe
handling of f reight, appeared no nearer
settlememt today than it did yesterday.
Chairman Job, of the state - board ,of
arbitration, when asked if he had re
ceived an answer from the. railroads or
the ,mento his offer of arbitration, an
swered in the negative. rAll the freight
houses pickets endeavored to persuade
newcomers trom taking jobs and sought
to lure away men already at work. In
the yards of the Illinois Central, the
men brought in last night were at work
tn perishable freight. , They spent the
night in sleeping tears brought tf or the
purpose and ate their breakfast in, din
ing, cars anostly of the pattern used on
construction trains. A man familiar
with the present trouble and experienc
ed dn strikes said tody: - -
"If the teaansters iqome to the aid of
the freight handlers they will win; if
not the chances are that, they will lose.
It is too easy for. the (railroads to bring
in-new mien.'" - J r - v'
This statement's of meaning. In con
nection with the statement of officials
of the teamsters' union, who have said
that' the freight handlers proceeded to
strike without the sanction of the Chi
cago Federation- oft Labor and that
therefore they would be allowed to fight
out their own salvation. "
