They have sensed that working at the machines is not a big delight. These bosses are Winickoff and Brick, from 5 Pelham Street, and Dabrawitz from 21 Bowery. Now the remaining six bosses must do the work alone.
Scabs take the opportunity, even the bosses alone give up strikebreaking as fast as they can.
The interesting thing is that every boss who comes to settle with the union speaks from the heart to the workers. He declares that the other bosses spun his head around and that he feels sorry that he let himself be fooled by the other bosses from the beginning. The bosses that are now so stubborn are now sorry. In a few days they will come to their common sense and they will see their struggle is a waste. They will also pull the hair out of their heads because they didn't settle before and they lost the profits for many weeks for nothing.
