CHICAGO, August ill.—-lioth the.
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
Companies claimed today to be in bet-
ter shape than at any time since the
commencement of the strike or the
operators. The Western Union said
early in the day that it had more than
200 men at work and was able to
care for business in fair shape. ‘ The
Postal claimed to have about 100 men.
and also asserted that the delay in
bundling messages was not great . Both
companies, however, bud posted con-
spicuously notices that lnosuuges
would only be accepted subject to do-
lny in transmission.
A number of men who were. import-
ed lust. night by the Western Union
went to work today.
The oliiceru oi the union said the
company llilti about. one-third of the
number at work lllltl, they olnlmed to
have uud declared that mun}.- of them
were telegraph students not yet. cup-
nblc of doing good work.
The decision of the operators in
Washington and Boston not. to strike
lmmedinioly did not discoueert the
oiilccrs of the union. Secretory Wes-
ley Russell said today:
. “it nmlms no difference what the
men oust vote to do. When the time
comes they will be ordered out and
that will be. all there is to it.
will come out when we want them.‘
Snporintemlent. Cook of the Western
Union in this city today issued a state-
ment. saying that there will not be any
ni‘blil‘tlllon of the strike.
“ i will receiVe no dcputntions oi’ the
strikers," said Mr. Cook, "and will hold
no communionlion with them, except-
ing in n eirculnr letter which I will
send out today. This will be brief and
will rend:
“iinving left the employ of the com-
pnny, you will uppiy at once for your
puy.’
“We have now 225 men ut work and
we are commencing to choose our men.
Today We have turned away a number
of applicants because We did not think
them competent. men."
