 Der was of car 24 on February 26, car

 and you failed to resoond as would be-
 come gentleman when .ady had
 been insulted, even ie tt were by q
 s'hero,'' in fact dil not respond at all,
 decided to see you and make my com plaint in person to you, supposing, of
 course, that I was to meet q man who would at least be courteous to lacy,
 even in a complains about one of your strike breakers. was soon unde- ceived when I had the questionable pleasure of meeting you in the city to- { day. I now will sput what have to say in writing" as you told me to in such courteous, gentlemanly manner to-day when you were caring for your cars and heroes C? On Thursday, February 26, Conductor ss170,7 -then running car A on the Naugatuck di- vision, stood just inside the vestibule of his car and as I was walking down to Naugatuck threw kisses at me. That is my charge and am not afraid to face him. I can identify the man, though he runs another car or changes his cap number. It will add that when one so solicitous for public quiet and law abiding citizens and courteous be- havior on the part of the public as you seem to be, treats a lady as you did me upon the street to-day, fails to carry out in themselves what they consider proper for the public. There is my charge against the man fin writings' as you wished it, also an explanation Of why went to you

 One new trimmer went to work to- day. This addition. 1t is thought, will result in giving better service to- night. All things. considered. it was fair Saturday night and last night. OfsI course the liEhts do not burn now af- ter or 3 o'clock in the morning.
 The lights went out in the stores of !, B. Mullings & Sons, and Upson Sin Sleton & Co Saturday night and Super antendent Meth had to climb up one of the big poles and fix it. A crowd took him for q non-union trimmer and commenced to iibe him. Things kept growing from bad to worse until finally some of the parties commenced to get l out Of sorts and talked as if they in- tended to attack Mir Meth, but wiser counsels prevailed. It was said later | that nobody in the crowd had the slightest notion of meddling with NIr Meth
 With the exception of the breaking of a few lights of glass in some of the ears, nothing serious occurred Satur- day night and Sunday 1t was re- g)orted that MT Sewell was shot at on Alis way home last night. but nobody about town appeared to Know anything about it to-day. 1t is certain that MT 5Sewell didn't look as if he had been scared very badly and when asked about it didn't care to affirm or deny the rumor. man who lives near the Dallas greenhouse on North Willow street, where Mir Sewell is said to have been aimed at said to-day that he sat up reading the papers until nearly i O clock this morning and that he was sure no shooting occurred in the neigh borhood.
 The strikers executive committee issued the following statement to-day:
 This, the fifty-frst day of our strike for justice, finds us shoulder to shoulder, fighting with enthusiasm and in the best of spirits.
 When one considers that we have been out seven weeks, have been nat I urally under great mental strains 1t mary times during that period and have been up against extraordinary conditions numerous times, and not withstanding all that, none of our men has perpetrated an act which brought him before the city authorities, we feel that this strike has been a wonderful one. And this is true despite the eff forts that have been made to entrap 1 the men into falling from their pedes- tais of lawlessness by agents of the troll ( ley company. And not satisfied with ( this perfect condition on our part, not , an act of violence of any kind occurs i now that the intimation is not present e ed that the lawlessness was the result of our strike and probably was com mitted with sympathizers thereof
 Two such violent acts have been re- corded in the journals of to-day, one as happening on Saturday night and ' one last night. We are suspicious that ' ' the one reported as occurring Saturday | night is piece of fiction. as we have ! the matter among resi- q dents adjacent to the place where it b was supposed to have occurred and mo- | body we met heard anything like a V pistol shot at the time stated or in fact
