The quarrymen decided that their wages

A committee was sent to the superinten-

comply with their request. The quarry
men, including the dago men, quit work
and went home. The dago is used to turn
the stones in the sheds. When one of the
cutters had finished his stone, he was
asked to turn it with jack. He politely
refused. 1t was evident that the cutters
were backing the quarrymen, and that it
would be difficult to continue the cutting
in the shed while the strike continued.
In the afternoon the superintendent tel
ephoned to the men that he would agree
to the rise and requested them to come to
work Tuesday morning, which they did
with renewed energy. The price agreed
upon is 10 cents per hour for day of nine
