SUSQUEHANNA, Pa, Jan. To-day
about $50 employees in the boiler depart
ment Of the Erie Railroad Company's ex-
tensiye locomotive shops in this place went
out on strike. For some weeks there has
been dissatisfaction among the employees
on accsunt Of the introduction Of the piece

that laborers have been doing the work
Of regular boiler makers or apprentices.
The local membership of the boiler
makers union unsuccessfully attempted to
have their grievances rightcd and the
strike is the result. The men are quiet
and orderly and no disorder is apprehend-
ed. A committee from the strikers viii
confer with the Erie officials and il is
possible that the difficulty will be amic-
ably adjusted.
The chief shops Of the Erie Railroad
Company are located here giving steady
