Armour A Co. up the report that their beef-killen also joined tbe strikers is a mistake; tha part ot their establishment to tanning ssusntl, the strike being confined to tbe hog-iUlera. In an interview tbe aobject of thestrike published this morning, Mr. Y. D. Amour ■aid: The matter of retonilna to the ten hour qritem rests entirely on the question of self prosctlou. Chtcsao packers are unable to compete wlh Cla- clanall or Kansas City people on the basts of I hours oblstlp on sooount of the lessened cost of opnatlng at those points.

I work ftarteen hours myself every dsy, ted ten bourn dally tell la certainly not a great hardship for my smpl" see, I do not entldpate clasts g down work entirely, al though for a law da) a we may not operate at full rapacity. Them are plenty of men who are wiling to work ten hours each day, and take tha place of the striker* If ibey ere assured ot protection, and this will poelttrely be offered them to the fslleat extent. 1 trust the old bends, however, will ll'ei proper view of the situation, and reconsider their action, which la certainly Ul-advlaed. Over ons hundred and fifty Pinkerton men were lodged and breakfasted at the Transit House last night, and at 7 o'clock this morning emerged from the droit)g room, and shouldered their Winchester riUea, which were stacked inoornera around tha lobby. Captain Foley called the men to attention, and they were marched off through the yards. At each packing bourne a squad of men left the line, and in charge of a sergeant, filed throngb the jaqfia, and were etotioned at various cor* ners, where they could command a view of the entire premises. They were watohed with interest and hatred by tbe men in working clothes, and by hundred* oilmen without pails, and attired in their Sunday clothes who by this time hed assembled in force in tbe yards, and observed the pro ceedings at the various packing bouses. Thto morning it was rumored throughout tha yards thrt the packers had appointed a committee to adjust the difficulties with the men. It was asserted that the psckeri had been making money under Jbe new sobeduls of wage*, and were satisfied with it, bnt could not afford to allow the ma chinery remain idle for two hour*. .Tho terms to be offered, the men claimed, waa to advance the wages for ten hoars work to the same rates poM during the last five months for eight hours. Tbit, it was said by some of the men, wonld be satisfactory, but others said that nothing bnt eight honra' work would be accepted. A majority of the men were non-committal on tbe subject, and referred all question* to the leaden. Tbe aitaation from a business point of view, to a gloomy one. The market to very doll, there being no demand for fat hogs for packing. There to, however, some little demand for light hogs for the Eastern market. Buyers are sitting around the office waiting for price* to go down. Commission men advised their customers not to ship any more cattle, and telegrams of inquiry ss to tbe condition of things are bciog received all the time. The commission men are gloomy. Armour's employes continued to work to day, deciding to remain on duty until tbe ten-honr role to absolutely entered into effect When the force of armed Pinkerton men entered the building thto morning tbe men all oeaaed work and informed the foreman that they wonld not work while this armed force was prefect. Aa a result the Pinker ton men were sent away, and the men returned and pnt everything in ibape before leaving for the day. Notice was issued by the assembly of k nights of Labor of wbleh nearly all of ths atrikera are members, asking the saloon keepers in ths town of Laka to close their plaoes of business during tho strike, and the men have been cautioned not to violenoe in any form.
