THE PRESSMEN’S STRIKE.
NEWS UNDER DIFFICULTIES. UNION APPEALS TO MEN. (Press Association —Copyright.) (Received 9.40 p.m.) New York, Sept. 18.—Eleven afternoon newspapers, affected by tho pressmen’s strike, united their fragmentary forces which continued to operate the presses of the “Evening Post,” and succeeded in issuing a mid-afternoon edition entitled “The Combined New York Evening Newspapers. ’ ’ The front pages bore a series of mastheads of co-opcrating newspapers. This enterprise enlisted the efforts of publishers of most diverse policies, including the “Hearst” paper and the German language paper. Meanwhile the strike situation is unabated. There is only the slightest hope of issuing to-morrow’s newspapers. The suburbs dailies published extra editions and rushed to the Metropolis with scores of newsboys. The International Union officials branded the strike as illegal, and appealed to the men to return to work. They called for volunteers to come and help the papers to resume and to maintain the integrity and honour of the International Union.—(A. and N.Z.)
