NEW YORK CABMEN STRIKE
All Owing to Employment Of Nen-Union
Drivers
Secretary Whitney's Driver Jumps His Job
In Sympathy-The Cab Business at
Standstiil

NEW YORK, NV. 14.-The cab drivers
employed at the stable of Zeaich & Son
all went on strike Monday, and today ali
the Liberty Dawn association cabmen and
the stablemen of the Rising Sun associa-
ton we're ordered to stop work and in
augurate q sympathetic strike to support
the demands of their fellows. Until this
afternoon the strike had not assumed
serious proportions. although the Zeaich
stables had been heseked by csDmsn, and
police protection had been necessary for
the men who took their places. Tonight
the cab business of the city is nearly at q
standstill. The nun ber OF cabmen who
have left their seats in response to the
ORGANIZATIONS order tonight is estimated
from 800 to 1000, and several stable hands
are off duty. The cab service of most of
the hotels and thea;ers has been cut off.
This morning twenty cabs were sent out
by Zeaich q Son with policeman on tha
box of each cab to protect the driver. In
the course of the day the strikers induced
half OF the recruited drivers to desert.
A committee called upon Police Com
missioner Roosevelt to say the presenoe
OF uniformed policemen on the cabs
would tend to provoke violence rather
than to prevent it.
Mr.. Roosevelt and Chief Conlin agreed
that so long as there was no disorder the
manning Of cabs with officers was unnec-
essary. The committee also explained
that the new men employed in place of
the strikers did not have the licenses re-
quired by law.
The orig inal cause OF the strike was
the employment of non-union men at the
stables where the trouble started.
William Zeaich said he coulo not and
would not take strikers back IN body.
and he proposed to attempt to fill his
cabs with non-union drivers under police
protection. He said he was not opposed
to the union, but he did propose to en-
ploy any man whom he desired, whether
union or non union. The strikers said
today they did not insist upon Mr..
Zeaich employing union men only, but
they desired all non-union men employed
by him to join the union, and IL they re-
fused that they be discharged.
Seven drivers who were supplied to
private families. including one employed
by William G. Whitney, joined the strlk-
ers this morning. The manager OF the
New York Cab company said this morn
ing that the coLcern was not supplying
CAPS or carriages to the notels supplied
by Zeaich e. Son, although the com pany
hal the privilege of furnishing carriages
for the mem bers Of the KnickerboCker
club.
