On July 31, 1917, the "Big Five" had almost 90 per cent of the country's entire hide stock. In the meat industry, the commis sion stated, the "Big Five" already constitutes a monopoly. In 1916, they slaughtered 82.2 per cent of all cattle, 8C.4 per cent of all sheep: 76.8 per rent of all calves and 61.2 per cent of swine.

Southwestern railway motorman Friday."Wo are willing to submit the tTjspute to arbitration," cjon!tinued the motorman, vbut the company has absolutely refused to do that. They have been officially notified by the union officials that we will strike tomorrow morning and it is now up to them." Firemen employed by the company will strike In sympathy with the motormen and conductors, although their demands for a wage increase have been met by the company.. Engineers have also been granted a wage increase and are forbidden by state law from striking. The strike will leave only the engineers, agents and track hands working. When one of the union men was asked Saturday if he thought the company would attempt to run the cars after the, strike goes into ef- feet, he replied, "well they had better not." The long stretches of coun try road through which the line runs would make a run by scabs very dangerous if the strikers wanted, to make It so. The tleup iof the Southwestern JInes will be a great disadvantage to Wooster people who have come to depend upon the line for direct communication with Cleveland. The fast freight between Wooster and Cleveland has also come to be a big proposition and Its loss will seriously handicap Wooster dealers.
