The Union Council meeting was held yesterday noon at 193 Washington Street. It was its semi-monthly session with about 25 delegates present. President Rodgers acted as chairman.

Delegate Cain could not see why Chicago's workingman should not have the same privilege of getting some property at the lake front to build a large Union Hall, as our militia Regiments possess, for the purpose of shotting down discontented wage slaves. Delegate Murphy reported that in the name of the organization-committee, he has called a meeting for all Brewery employees, but, was not able to build up an organization, because none could master the English language and there was no German-speaking delegates who could have made himself comprehensible to both sides. At the conclusion of this, two Germans were assigned to the organizing committee and thereupon a second meeting of the Brewers was called. The delegates Bonnefot and Schmalbach were added to the committee.
