THE STRIKERS STATEMENT.
Say They are seventy-hve Men Strong
 and True.

and True.
 Tha strikers executive committee is- sued the following statement this at- ternoon:
 "Ihe 1S7th day of our strike finds us standing together, seventy-hve men strong. or ninety men counting in ex- tras. The Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go has already spent over S4OO GOO to subdue Us in our efforts to get S2 25 per day, and they are no near CT having us whipped than they were six months ago, thanks to the public, which thinks we. are in the right and acts accordingly.
 ''What do the directors of my com- pany care for the public of Waterbury They are satisfied with the way things are going here. My directors told me Monday not to meet any committee of the strikers. If any of them want to come back to work they will have to apply as individuals" This is substan- tially what General Manager Sewell stated to a friend who last night en- deavored to get the general manager and our executive committee together, in the hope that such a conference might bring about a settlement. The public of Waterbury who daily see the city streets occupied by this corpora ton free of cost will be interested to hear what those directors have to say when they get an opportunity to show their appreciation of what the public of Waterbury has done for their com pany. If the directors think that they are getting the strikers or the public whipped into line they will discover their error every day the strike is on, and particularly when dividend day comes around and shows increased losses. This attempted conference was nothing inspired by us, but was the effort of public spirited citizens to adjust the public discomfort. While we are will ing to do anything in reason to settle 1t, we feel just as independent as the company, and If the company says fight we say ditto
 ''The public has heard various stor- ies to the effect that the strike was all over in Bridgeport. One story was to the effect that the Central Labor body down there was going to put the com pany on the fair list. We'll, the fol- lowing telegram received by our secre- hay this morning. ought to be con- tradiction enough of these rumors: will continue strike here; don't give up. CSigneO T. R. Wood, president This means that Chairman Dillworth of the national organization is in Bridgeport for two days and there must be some thing doing.
 Tn referring to Matt Kerrigan going back to the company and deserting our ranks, we neglected to inform the pub lie that at the time we went out on strike, Kerrigan was not member of our union and he could have gone with the company without any criticism from us. Since we went out, how ever, he was initiated into our union and took the obligation, which makes desertion now all the more contempt tble.''
