TnE STRIKE AMONG 'LoNGsHoREMEN, HosTLERs
AND HoRsEsHoERs CONTINUES.
As far as could be learned there no additions
yesterday to the ranks of the striking horseshoers
and stablemen, from the employees of other horse
railroad companies. A few horseshoers left the
employ of the Madison Avenue Stage Company on
Thursday, because they were refused So 80 day.
The Second Avenue Railroad Company and Fifth
Avenpe Stage Company prevented a strike among
their men by granting the increased pay. Trouble
WAS expected at the stables of the South Ferry
Stage Company, in Nlnth-ave.. anda squad of po-
licemen was on duty there through the day. There
was no outbreak however. At the stables of the
Third Avenue and Fourth Avenue Companies
only few horseshoers were at work at the old
rates.
Mr.. Bonney General Manager of the Fourth
Avenue Line, said that the horseshoers asked
quietly for the increased pay, before they left, and
were told that it could not be granted. He SAID
that in a few weeks when the season of special
iobbing work was over there would be any number
of horseshOers out of work and glad 70 take ~
day. At the Cornell Iron Works at the foot Of
West Twenty-Sixth-si., twenty policemen were on
dnty MANY of the striking men lounged about
outside the works and chatted in groups, but
offered no disturbance. OF the $50 men who struck,
thirty or forty have been taken back at the Old
price.
The 'longshoremen's strike still causes delay to
the European steamers. The Anchoria, Of tho An
chOr Line. will not be able to sail before Monday
and the Greece, of the NationalLine Will not get
off until tomorrow at q. m. Thomas Westman,
Michael Mccoy. Patrick Cane and Others, represent
ing the strikers had a conference yesterday with
Thomas = SandfOrd, secretary of the North ATTAIN
tic Steamship Conference. After an interchange OF
views, Mr. Sandford complImented the men ON
their peaceable conduct and assured them that the
steamship companies would employ all the ola
hands at 25 cents an hour, but on no other terms.
Joseph Thompson, one of the striking stablemen
of the Sixth Avenue Road, was held for trial yester
day IN the Yorllvillc Police Court for assauting
Francis RunzdeT, a driver of the same road, who
had consented with other drivers to bring ont
their own horses from the stables. Two other
strikers who assisted in the assault will be arrested
on warrants as soon as they can be found.
