The labor troubles of the New York Central
and Hudson River Railroad Company have been ex-
tended by the strike yesterday of the bulk OF the brake
men on the River branch For several days the
movement for higher wages had been agitsted among
the men, but no strike planned before
July or 4. but the action of General su-
perntendent Toueey, the men claim, precip-
itated matters News was received yesterday
at the Grand Depot and at the Thrtetbs yard
that as freight arrived ct West Albany
the brakemcn left them and refused 10 make the return
trip unless their wages were increased
The regular force OF freishran hands between this
city aud Albany consists of ten gangs h,re beng
conductor and three brakemen each gang These men
are supposed TO 90 out the regular trains from ST.
Johns Park The extra force, which Is Increased or
diminished according TO the fluctuations OF the eght
traffic. consists Of about IT'S men, most OF whom are
steadily employed. The current rate OF wages OF the
regular men $50 month, The demand OF tho extra
brakemen for the rate OF wages The answer OF
Toucey, they said, not DEFINITE ana
was only attempt to induce them u finish their Trips
The notice which the extra men had received at tne
Threthst yard to call at the Office Tor the amount OF

as summary dismissal from the employ

rived at the Thlrtieth-st yard yesterday
il was manned by three conductors One ofthem SAID 10

"Yes we arc brakemen now; but we will not be long

All the employees OF the who could DO yester
day said that they believed that the strike would be OF
short duration "Wny" said the switchman at the
Thirtieth-st yard, "the regular force is 80
small that they cannot run nalf the trains.
II the company discharges all the extra men, or
refuses to pay them the wages that the Regular
