They Issue Manifesto and Claim Com
mand of the Situation.
The executive committee Of the strik-
ers, after lengthy meeting in Mugges
hall, gave out the following statement
last night:
CITIZENS: Seven days since the en-
ployes of the Brooklyn trolley lines
were driven from their posts by
soulIess corporations, because they were
human beings and unable to work another
year under the terrible strain put upon
them by being compelled to run trolley
cars through crowded streets at a high
rate of speed, for fourteen hours as a
days work, as they contracted only for
ten hours.
We offered to continue our contracts
with our masters for another year at the
same wages if we were guaranteed
against more than 10 hours work. The
companies refused. All our offers to ar
bitrate were rejected. The corpora
tions are determined to maintain
their arbitrary sway. Since we are com
| PEELED to go out. the newspapers have
been subsidized by the railroad
stock, issued by foreign corporation IN
| order to swindle the state out of
taxes, have persistently misrepre-
sented our position and exagger-
ated every offense committed in
! our name. They have terrorIzed the
community with fabricated accidents,
with accounts of violence and have
failed to state that where accidents were
committed it was at the instigation of
| the companies' agents to thus seek to
| discredit our cause.

A Rush of Applicants but no One will
Named

A Rush of Applicants but no One will be
Named.
Since the appointment of Sanitary Of
ficer a. Barton as state house messenger,
there has been rush of applicants for
his place.
Mayor Harrison and City Physician
Hibben have decided that no one will be
appointed to take Barton's place in the
health department.
A few weeks ago an extra sanitary Of
fcer was named at the request of the
city physician, as an epidemic of diph-
tneria and scarlet fevor was anticipated
but the epidemic did not materialize so
the present force of four men will prove
adequate.

The crowd then turned on the fellow
who did the cutting and gave him a
good beating. There were no arrests.
