lines composing its system, about l50
cars There were 800 cars in operation

the company it is declared that want OF
protection of their lines is the cause for
this condition, while the strikers de.
clare that the company has not enough
men with which to operate more. It is
stated that the authorities will arm the
police officers guarding the cars with
shotguns, loaded with buckshot, and
they will be instructed, it is said, to
fire into mobs which attempt to inter
tere with the street railway employs
In the discharge Of their duties. > r
So far nearly 70 employees of the Tran.
sit company, mostly motormen, have
been under the surgeons care since the
strike began, very few Of the wounds,
however, being Of a serious nature.

Typographical union, one Of the strong
est in the city, while discussing the
possibility of a sympathetic strike, said:
1.-THE subject of a sympathy strike is
q matter that each union must settle
for itself aud three-fourths vote is
