Western Union settled a strike by 6,500 workers.

Negotiators for Western Union and the union representing 6,500 workers reached a settlement late Tuesday night, ending a 10-day-old nationwide strike, a union official said. “The strike ends immediately, so we’re telling people if they work the midnight shift to go back at once,” said Richard Brockert, international president of the United Telegraph Workers. The agreement is subject to ratification by the union members, Brockert said.
