Twice today dynamite cartridges
were exploded under a railroad bridge
over which strikebreakers must pass
to enter Corinth.
The damage was slight, owing to
scanty knowledge of how to handle
dynamite. and tonight the damage has
been repaired and the bridge is under
guard by militia. Company L, Second
regiment, N. Y. N. G., is stationed
there to prevent disorder in case strik-
ers or sympathizers resist an attempt
to smuggle in non-union men under
cover of darkness.
Several small parties of strikebreak-
ers have been despa tched from Sara
toga to the mills at South Glens Falls,
but none are being brought here to-
night, and the main body of strike
breakers Is still held there for orders.
