Labor Troubles

By Editor

Labor Troubles.—Strikes are on in both New York and Chicago at this writing. In New York it is the express companies' employees, and there are ominous threats that it may affect all transportation traffic. Conditions there have been attended with much violence. In Chicago it is the garment workers, largely women. The police made many arrests of supposed garment working women, but later found that some of those arrested were wealthy society women who were in sympathy with the strikers. Most of the women of prominence were garbed as working girls.
