out all classes of citizens against the company. The strength ot it seems to lie in the fact that the company has thus far, so far as can be learned, de- clined to treat with the strikers com mittee. Citizens are walking about canvassing their friends to secure promises to walk during the strike. Expressmen, cabs and hacks are doing a big business.
 At 2 o'clock the situation had i'm proved as far as the street scenes were concerned. The crowds were as great as ever, but the strikers circulated free ly among them to discourage disorder. rying the mail, five in number. The disappearance of the passenger cars produced good results
 A meeting of the executive commit tee of the New Haven Business Mems association is to be held late this after noon to discuss the strike.
 As the afternon wore on great actiyi- ty developed among all classes of citi- zens in an effort to bring the strike to an end. At 5 o'clock committee from the strikers went into conference with Mayor Studley. At the same hour the New Haven Business Mems association held a meeting. At o'clock a meet ing of the chamber of commerce was held.
 At 2:30, while the center of the city was quiet, there was considerable un, rest on Grand avenue. 1t was reported that representatives of the Connecticut Lighting and Power Go were consult ing with the strikers in an effort to in- duce them to operate independent of the Fair Haven and Westville Go, the Branford branch of the road. This branch while operated by the local company, is the property of the Con- necticut Lighting and Power. Go. The circulation of the report produced un- easiness among the strikers and their friends. The streets near the car barns are crowded with people. Trouble is feared if an attempt is made to dis patch CT ranford branch. At a lato room there was no char n.
