The officials OF TIN road in Queens county are

reserves. and both the officials and the
police were prepared in case trouble
should come. The Queens county men who
were seen last night said that they had M
grievances at all OF their own, but they were
always with the under dog. and in this
case the strikers seemed to be the under
dog in brooklyn. There are two local assem- :
