GLASS FIRES DRAWN.
Bridgeton Manufacturers Re-
taliate--Answer to Threat
to Strike.
rspecial to ..rhe Jersey city News.'J

Especial to THE Jersey City News.'1
BRIDGETON, April 20, 1S99.-The manu-
facturers played a strong card today in
their contest with the glass blowers.
Fires were drawn at the Cohansey, the
Cumberland and the More-Jonas furnaces,
where window glass was made. This IS
their answer to the window glass work
ers' decision to aid the hollow ware glow
ers in their strike. The manufacturers
action means that no window glass will
be made here until next fall, at least. 1t
is evident that the action of the window
glass men in threatening a sympathy
strike was i'll advised.
The cutters and fiatteners are at WORK
today, and will finish up what glass there
is on Hand. Neither of these trades have
taken part in the struggle, and there is
complaint upon their part that they We're
forced from their places through no fault
of their own, and without being con-
suited.
The strikers. of course, remain firm, and
expect to win. They will draw their IS
and s. per week so long as the strike
is on.
The Cumberland glass firm put on two
or three new hands yesterday and expect
more tomorrow. 1t is rumored that the
Cohansey and More-Jonas Companies will
start their factories next Monday with a
full set of non-union lowers. OF nine
n~on-union men who went to work at the
Cumberland factory, six came. out last
night. Another who went to work came
out quickly.
The glassblowers here ave decided to
contribute twenty-five cents out of each
pay for the benefit of the widows and
laboring men. Fifty glassblowers left
today for places in the West.
Deputy Factory Inspector Bennett of
Atlantic county came here today and
visited the Cumberland works. He
found two boys under the factory g
and sent them home. He would have
taken a third but his father said he was
over IL years of age, and the boy was
allowed to stay. His case will be inves-
tigated.
Mrs. Anna Thobour, a prominent secret
society woman here, has started a moves
ment among glass workers wives for the
purpose of organizing them into an aux
iliary to the local union. They will try
to prevent suffering among the labor
ing men. The Rev. Charles Elder has
charge of a fund for the benefit of the
same class. The Rev. E.. w. Stone, pas
tor of the Baptist Church, is also interest,"
ing himself in their behalf.

HOB0KEN STRIKE OVER
Receiver Young Says the
Men Have Returned
to Work.

David c.. Young, receiver of the Jersey
City, Hoboken and Rutherford Railway
Company, when seen by a News" man
last evening declared hat he had induced
the majority of the striking conductors
and motormen to return TO work and that
the strike inaugurated yesterday morning
was practically over. The strikers at
Rutherford did not make my trouble, he
said, and the assistance of the Sheritt's
posse was not needed after midday to
preserve order.
The cars, which had been stalled be-
tween Rutherford and Secaucus, began 10
arrive in Hoboken yesterday afternoon
about four o'clock. Two west bound ears
left the Barclay street ferry at five o'clock
for Rutherford. Armed deputy sherilfs
accompanied the motormen. Trouble ut
that time was evidently feared and few
people made the trip. There were not a
dozen passengers in both cars
When the cars returned to Hoboken the
motormen reported everything all right TO
Mr.. Young.
No through cars to Paterson were run
last night or this morning.
1t is understood that about one-third OF
the strikers have been discharged. The
majority of the strikers, who have re-
turned to work, are Paterson men. Few
of the men living in Hoboken consented
to go back to work.
Mr.. Young says he is willing to make
any reasonable concessions the men de-
mand and hopes to be able to adjust ex-
listing differences satisfactorily to all con-
cerned. He does not fear any further
trouble, he avs.
The men have been induced 10 return TO
work on promises, the discharged en-
ployes of the road say, and that things
are still far from being satisfactory.
All is quiet in the Hudson City section,
though ten reserve men of the police force
were still on duty at noon. Considerable
excitement was caused at Congress street
and Central avenues last night by a re-
port that the strikers had cut down the
trolley wires at that point, where the
Rutherford road crosses the tracks OF
the North Hudson County road.
The strikers deny they had anything to
do with dragging down the wires. They
say a green motorman rushed a car over
at that point at extraordinary speed, and
that while doing SO the trolley pole flew
off, got tangled in the of wires
and pulled down the whole structure.
= Traffic was delayed over TWO hours,
much to the discomfort of passengers.
Lines of cars were stalled on both roads.
