ASH CART MEN STRIKE
Six Hundred Of Commissioner An
drews's Men Go Out,
Have Not Been Paid for Work In the
Last Week Of February.
Question Of Veracity Between An
drews and the Paymaster.

Six hundred ash-cart drivers employed
by The STRENGTHENING Department went
out on a strike this morning, by orders
of the Executive Committee of the
Drivers and Holsters Union.
When the gongs at the different stables
of the Department sounded at Z o'clock
the men failed to respond, and the
horses were not hitched to the ash-carts,
but remained idle in their stalls.
Failure to get their pay promptly is
the reason advanced by the men for
their refusal to work.
Yesterday was the regular pay day at
the various stables of the Street-Clean-
ing Department, n when the men as
sembled at $50 p. NJ. to get the none
due them they were Informed that, ow-
ing to somebody's neglect, the money
was not ready and could not be paid
until this afternoon.
and after consultation they sent word to
Commissioner Andrews that unless
the money was paid last night the men
would to-day refuse to work.
The threat does not seem to have dis
turbed the Department officials, and
they seemed to be greatly surprised
men had actually refused to work unless
they got their money.
The strike centred at East Seventeenth
street and Avenue G. where Stable A,
the largest In the city. is situated. 1t
was there that committees from the
strikers az the other stables met this
morning to confer with the officials of
the Street, Cleaning Department.
Supt. Robbins was notified of the strike
as soon as lie arrived at the headquar-
te s of the Department, and drove with
all possib e haste to Stable A to confer
with the committees.
