PRESS STRIKE
NEW YORK DEVELOPMENTS. (Australian and N.Z. Cable NEW YORK, September 18. Eleven of the aiternoon newspapers are affected by Uie pressmen's strike. They united their fragmentary forces which contrived to operate the presses of the “Evening Post,” and succeeded in issuing a mid-afternoon edition, entitled “Hie Combined New York Evening Newspapers,” the front page of which bore a series of the “mastheads” of the co-operating newspapers. This enterprise enlisted the efforts of publishers of most diverse policies, including a Hearst paper and a German language paper. Meanwhile the strike situation is unabated. There is only the slightest hope of issuing to-morrow’s newspapers. In the suburbs the dailies published extra editions, and rushed to the metropolis with scores of newsboys. The International Union officials have branded the strike as “illegal,” and have appealed to the men to return to work. The Union has called for volunteers to come and help the papers to resume, and to maintain the integrity and honour of the International Union.
