Its Striking Employees to Start a

Twill BE Co-operative and the Men
Claim to Have Good hackers.

The surprise which the striking COM
positors, pressmen and stereotypers of
the Brooklyn Citizen have in store for the
owners of that paper leaked out this
morning. 1t is a movement to start a
newspaper in opposition to the Citizen.
A circular has been issued by w. C..
Barnes the striking foreman Of the Citl-
zen, calling for subscriptions to the capt
tai stock OF a one-Cent afternoon paper
to be called The Daily Globe. 1t is pro-
promoters say that they have been prom
ised a plant worth $4,000 and pledge
of $4,000 in money.
Shares were placed at so each. and
the employees, who are to be union men,
have agreed to take portion of their
earnings in stock 1t is said that the
scheme has the backing of several In
fluental business men.

and discuss the matter with view to
effecting n settlement.
The strikers deny that they damaged
the Citizens machinery before they left.
They say the presses were broken by in
experienced men, who were called In to
take their places.
AS an instance OF the incompetency of
the new men, It is said that, after print
ing half the regular edition yesterday
the press broke down, and the balance
was not printed until o'clock last night.
