AT 1890 this morning the ranks OF dissot-
isfied operators in the Western Union office
were swelled by two recruits only, although
it was expected that nearly all OF the force
would quit work at that hour, those
rem aiming on duty claiming to be
doing 90 for personal reasons. II
is understood that inducements to remain
in the sum of $50 per month is offered them
but the figures for extra work, 20 per cent,
remains unchanged; by this the operators
cannot make over 500 per month. In ref
erence to the inducement mentioned above
Mr., Smith, night chief operator, denies
that such is the case, and maintains that
the men are remaining on duty of their
own volition, and SO far as he IS informed,
no inducements have been cfered them.
The work has gone on uninterrupted. The
operators telegraphed for are on their way
here, and will arrive in day or two. In
the meantime, though somewhat incon-
veniencsd, Manager Hall expects to get
along very we'll with the force he has on
hand.

ia. mouoted on torty-foot pole, gave
