Quincy Manufa curing Scheme
ArOuses Wrath of Tallahassee PeO-
pie.
Tallahassee. Fla, April ia man
named Oscar Altschul, who operates a
cigar factory at Quincy, came to Tai
lahassee on Monday, accompanied by
Bevis and Kelly, two men recently
discharged from the Ell Provedo cigar
factory. Altschul had a strike in his
cigar factory at Quincy and it is al
legged came to Tallahassee to get new
men. He called on Mr.. Hirschberg of
the Ell Provedo cigar factory, who took
him into his private office to listen to
his tale of woe. He kept Mr.. Hirsch-
berg there until o'clock. In the
meantime his two strikers were seeing
all the cigar makers in Tallahassee
with view to enticing them away to
Quincy.
Mr.. Hirschberg called at the postof-
fee on his way horne and received a
letter from Quincy warning him
against Altschul and his scheme. Be
ing thus warned Mr.. Hirschberg began
to look around and found abundant
evidence of the work that had been
going on among the cigarmakers by
the men from Quincy.
Mr.. Altsehul was notified by the au-
thorities here that he must not entice
any one away from Tallahassee or even
from Lean county. 1t is said that this
man, Altschul, had visited Tampa,
where he anticed lot of white cigar
makers who had good jobs and were
getting good pay to go to Quincy,
where they all soon became dissatisfied
and went on a strike.
AS far as can be learned Altscnul
has not succeeded in enticing any one
to go with him to Quincy, and is not
likely to take anybody with him.
