CHICAGO COMPS ON STRIKE.
RIVAL NEWSBOYS’ TACTICS. The compositors employed at the offices of Mr W. R. Hearst’s newspapers, in Chicago, have gone out on strike, but- as they did so without the sanction of the union authorities they will probablv be ordered back to work. Meanwhile the typesetting tor the two Hearst papers the “Examiner and the “American’ ’is being done in- other offices by union labor, but the inconvenience of this arrangement is such that the daily issues of these journals have had to be reduced to four pages. The “Socialist” organ, taking advantage of the situation, published an enlarged edition,, b'ut the' sale of the paper was- prevented by rival newsboys, who destroyed al .the copies on which they could lay their hands. Many free fights occurred among the news runners.
