Boilermakers’ Strikes Settled by Compromise

The strike of boiler makers on the Great Northern and the Northwestern system has been settled by a compromise. The wages of the men on the first named road were advanced 25 cents per day, and on the latter road 30 and 40 cents a day, according to kind of work done. The striking boiler makers of the Union Pacific still hold out, neither side to the controversy being willing to yield.
