No agreement reached in Charleston dispute over streetcar strike
The Charleston dispute between Kanawha Valley Traction and its employees remained unresolved after a prolonged conference. Mayor Holley was tasked to appoint a three member panel to mediate with both sides selecting one member each, and if deadlock persisted a neutral arbitrator would be chosen by the city. The meeting urged a speedy settlement while noting the striking workers would stay in their jobs.

AFL Leader Signals Potential Counter Suit Against NAM
President Gompers told an AFL executive council meeting that a counter suit against the Nations Manufacturers Association is most likely. He alleged NAM instigated injunctions, pledging to pursue the case broadly and to resist surrender of labor rights despite NAM's $1.6 million war chest. He warned against the backers’ money versus human resolve.
