Chicago, 111., Mr 1 1. The general
strike which was to bare been inaugu
rated last night to force the arbitration
of the Pullman strike tailed to mater
ialize today. Throughout the city
this morning there was little evidence
of the business paralysis which has
been so confidently predicted by the
labor leaders. Every street ear line in
the city was running, the derated roads
carried the usual number of trains and
the early morning crowds of workmen
on the way to their shops and business
seemed undiminished. The seamen,
cignrtnakcrs and carpenters were the
only unions which signified their inten
tion of stopping work today. Reports
from these trades were awaited, but
their action one way or another was
regarded as only a drop in the bucket.
According to the labor leaders, mote
than 100,000 in;n in this city will be
out on a strike by Saturday. That was
settled at a meeting held bv a dozen or
more local unions late last night. The
trades and great council at a late hour
last night passed the following resolu
tion:
"Resolved that it is the sense of this
council to strike and that the organiza
tions already out remain out and that the
remainder arc to be out not later than
Saturday morning; that the council
give its fullest support to all organiza
tions afbliuted. We request oil members
to keep away from railroad property
and if martial law be declared to remnin
in their homes.'
The building and trades council is the
most powerful single labor body in
Chicago.

How many people in Asheville were
aware that the following law is in
the North Caroliua code ? See. 3110:
"II any person shall entice, persuade
and procure any servant by indenture,
or anv servant whj shall have con
tracted in writing or orally to serve his
employer to unlawfully leave the service
of Irs master or employer ; or
if anv iMM'son shall knowingly ami
unlawfully harbor and detain, in his
own service and from the strvce ol his
master or employer, anv servant who
shall unlawfully leave the service ul
such master or employer; then, in either
case, such tt person and H'rvant may be
sued, simply or jointly, by the master,
and, on ncoverv, he shall have judg
ment for the actual double value ot the
damages.
Sic. .il.'l). In addition to the reniidv
given in the preceding section against
the person and servant violating the
preceding section, such a person anil
servant shall also pay a penalty ol one
hundred dollars to any person siiinj
lor the same, singly or jointly, one hall
to his use and the other to the use of the
poor of the county where suit is brought,
and the offender shall be ttuiltv of a inis-
kmeanor and fund not exceeding one
hundred dollars ot imprisoned uot ex
ceeding six months."
On the strength of this law a suit was
brought a lew days ago iu Justice Frank
Carter's court. The ground of the suit
was that one party had hired a maid
servant before the expiration of service
with the prosecutor. Suit was brought
against the employer and employee. The
defendant who had employed the woman
claimed that she hud asked the servant
to get her a girl, and received for reply
an oiler from the servant to undertake
the j ib, as she had clready given notice
to her employer of her intention to have.
The lady deiendaut fainted while on the
witness stnnd, and the Instice dismissed
the case lor lack of evidence ol criminal
intent. All parties m the suit were
prominent people, the maidservant be
ing temporarily made so by the suit in

Spartanburg. "Rutthd" does not be

Asheville.
The third inning blarlcd it on a muft
by Stephens and a bad decision at third
base,
Iu the Hi inning Spartanburg was
shut out and Asheville had the game
in her own hands with three rims to be
gin with. Spartanburg took one in the
second and crowded Asheville out. And
the third inning well, it was awful!
Stephens Stephcus.miud rou! mulled
a pop llv that fell into his hands. The
sun was in his face and Hint will have to
serve as an excuse. But the boys went
to pieces when the umpire declared a
clear out at third us safe, and then de
clared the same man out at home plate
and then changed his decision. Spar
tanburg Tilled up seven runs and then
gave Asheville a pill.
It was nothing in the fourth und fifth,
and one for Asheville in the sixth. The
seventh inning tallied three for the Spar
tans and one for Asheville. In the eighth
it was one for Spartanburg against an
egg for the Asheville boys, and the Spur
tm boys rubbed it in again by making
two to Asbeville's none. But here's the
fcoie, and there isn't even an atom of
consolation in it :
