Of the Superintendent Of
MossbeTg & Granville Co.

William Glastner. who is the local
agent of the Machinists' union, report
ed today that the Mossberg & Granville
Manufacturing company of this city,
through it's superintendent. had yes
terday afternoon called the men at
work in the factory into the office and
had asked them to sign an oath that
they did not belong to any union, and
also requiring them TO agree not TO be-
come a member of any labor union
without giving the corporation 30 days
notice OF their intention of doing so.
Three OF the men first called, accord
ing to Mr.. Glastner. refused to sign Tho
paper and left, the shop. and. Is others
also quit work in sympathy with the
three.
The superintendent of the company
was seen this afternoon by News
man, and he said that such paper had
been prepared for the men to sign, and
this was done by the orders of Mr..
Granville, who was determined to run
a non union shop. He had been driven
to take this course by the attitude of
the members of the local union, said
fhe superintendent who had intim.dat-
ed his men, shouted 'scab' at them
and writing threatening letters Some
OF the non-un!on men had become so
terroized that they gave up their jobs.
The superintendent said that he per-
sonally had received a letter containing
threats and tn s was signed by a num-
ber of the men who had gone out, and
all OF whom had already signed the
paper in question.
Some objection having been made by
the men to the clause calling for 30
days notice before they joiIiFd a labor
union, the superintendent agreed that
he wose1 give any man - GAYS notice
before dscharging. providing the Of
fence committed was not one that nee
essarily called for immediate discharge.
This also being objected TO the superin-
tendent agreed to change the clause. so
as 10 throw out the words go days"
and make ii read that any employe
should give "a notice" before Joining
a labor union.
This was also objected TO. and the
men i'm question are still out. and, ac-
cording TO the statement Of the super
intendent are liable to remain out un-
til they decide To sign the paper. The
superintendent also stated that all the
departments of the factory were rum
ming and that good men were being
employed. He reiterated the statement
that the shop would be run as a non
union shop, and in this statement he
was backed up by Mr.. Hahn. the sec
retary of the company. Mr.. Granville
