EEPORTED STRIKE.
supt. Waterbury Said Freight Brake
men Were Satisfied.

| The following appeared in some of
! the state papers yesterday morning:
The freight brakemen Of the New
| York, New Haven and Hartford rail-
road have asked the company for an in
crease in wages. The through freight
| brakemen ask that ten hours constitute
days work They ask for no increase
in pay, being satisfied to get 50 for ten
hours work But the rear brakemen,
or flagmen, want $2.25 a day, as there is
more responsibility connected with the
work of the hagmen. The demand as to
overtime is as follows: All over ten
hours to be paid for at the rate of 20
cents an hour, except the rear brake
men, who ask for % cents on hour for
overtime. The local or way freight
brakemen also want ten hours to con-
stitute a days work. They ask for an
increase of wages from So to $210 per
day. The hagmen want S2.35 per day.
the pay for overtime to be at the same
rates.
AS far as could be learned last night
the brakemen were satisfied with their
hours of work and their wages, and
that locally no petition for higher
wages and shorter hours has been
brought up by them. Superintendent
Waterbury of the New London division
said last night that as far as he knew
the report was unfounded and that no
complaint has been made by brakemen
on the New London or any other divi-
sion of the road.
int n
trouble to ask several of the brakemen
on his division and in every case the
brakemen were satisfied. He said they
We're paid promptly and well for over
time work and that they chad no kick
coming" Superintendent Waterbury
thinks the movement was started by
some of the unions that have sprung
up over the state recently, and that
brakemen who belong to these unions
have signed their names just as mem
bers of certain committees and in the
fear that their duty as members of a
union will not be done. He also said
that probably nothing would ever come
out of it.
A brakeman when interviewed last
night said: why, we don't know of
any such thing as a strike; on the con-
trary, all of us are satisfied / speak
from what l know to be fact on the
line between New Haven and New
York. There is no talk about strike
among the brakemen as far as | know,
and l have not heard one mention that
they were in any way dissatisfied with
the wages they get or the hours they
have to work
"Under the equalization of wages,
which went into effect two or three
months ago, most of the men had their
old wages restored and in many in
stances the wages were raised so that
every one of us is oontented with the
way things are going, and l don't be-
lieve the strike talk will amount to
much except in the papers"

ment of building lines on Gibbs street.

sAvIN ROCK JUBILEE FESTIVAL.
Big Crowd Last Night Enjoyed the
Singing Dancing. Etc

Big Crowd Last Night Enjoyed the
Singing, Dancing, Etc.
Judging from the hearty applause be-
slowed on the various artists at the jul
bilee festival held at Savin Rock last
night, there is no doubt that the artists
are one and all well qualified for the
parts which they take in the long and
varied programmes submitted by the
management. That the entertainment
is new and novel goes without saying,
and this alone is sufficient to draw a
large crowd during the remainder of
the week. Good singing, which includes
solos and part songs by the company,
fine musical selections by the colored
cadet band, and clever jig and fancy
dancing by the male and female men,
bers of the aggregation go to make up
an entertainment that can be enjoyed
by both young and old
A special feature, and enc which was
greatly enjoyed by the large audience,
was the cake walk in which over
dozen couples took part. The grace and
with which this item was ex-
ecuted by the winners of the cake was
much admired and loudly applauded,
while the comic antics of several of the
competitors caused much amusement to
the onlookers.
The performance will be repeated
each evening during the remainder of
the week.

INSULT ADDED TO INJURY.

Colonel Hankthunder called at the
office of the local paper to express his
mind concerning a Typographical error
that had appeared in a notice brought
in by the Colonel himself of rpublica-

The club with which he was connected
had decided to give an entertainment
at public hall for some benevolent
purpose, and the notice announcing 1t
closed with the significant words, "Ad-

NEW HAVEN TEAM MOBBED.

Stoned and Hooted In Their Game with
Bridgeport Yesterday Afternoon.
1t was undoubtedly good thing for
Manager Reilly's men that they were
accompanied to Bridgeport yesterday
afternoon by large aggregation of To-
cal lovers of the game, as otherwise
they would probably have fallen victims
to the fanatic wrath of the cranks of
the Park city. The game was the best
exhibition of the supreme control of
the roWdyish element at such games
seen this season. The grounds were
absolutely without policeman and the
crowd to vent their spite for some fam
c1ed grievance against the New Haven
team, swarmed around their bench,
threw stones at them and loaded them
with vile epithets. These latter reveal
ed the fact that the Norwich matter
was at the bottom of the rouble.
Manager O'Rourke of the Brideeport
team may not have been deserving of
all that he has been accused of in re-
gard to Manager Reilly's punishment
for signing the Norwich players, but
he is certainly to be condemned for al
lowing such a disgraceful affair as oc-
Cured yesterday to go on without at
to stop it. His Indifference in
the matter meets with general condem-
nation from all lovers of the sport,
