important one. A recruiting office was opened two

men. There have been plenty of applicants. but
the number has grown less I'm inverse proportion TO
the reports of violent treatment from the hands of
the strikers which have been received The agent
saws he has orders for three hundred men, but SO
Ear less than one hundred have been sent. Most of
the men who have been sent To Albany are en-
poyes who have either been discharged by or have
resigned from the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany.
The closing clause of the agreement which the
pon-uuion man must sign before lie Is sent to
Albany reads:
In making this agreement I fully and clearly
understand there is trouble the property OF
