LOCAL LARoRERs
Leave Work on Silk Mill Site-cIair
 Outside Laborers Are Favored,

It was feared for a time Thursday l morning that there would be some thing doing at the site of the excava- tions for the new velvet mill on the Brooklyn side, when a number of workmen in the employ of the B. F. smith Construction company of Paw tucket, R. l., threw down their shovels and refused to work any longer The company has had a large force Of laborers at work upon the excava- tons for some time. Dissatisfaction was rife among the local laborers be- cause the company was hiring outside help as well, and was inclined to show preference to the outside help. even going so far as to let some of the local men go.
 The local Iaborers say that the mon ey for the mill was raised by WiIIi- should be given a preference if there is any to be shown. When the men found out how things were going, all the local men refused to work, de- mandlng their pay. This was not forthcoming, and Foreman Berard be- came afraid of some sort of violence and sent for Capt. E. H. Richmond, who with Patrolman Allen Macarthur went to the place and ascertained how matters stood. There were no signs of violence, the local men telling the captain what the situation was. Cap tain Richmond told the foreman that if he did not want the men around he must pay them and he agreed to do so, which he did Thursday after noon shortly after one o'clock. The local laborers then left the job
 Thirty one Quit; Ninety Left.
 Thirty-one men in all quit work. The foreman tells an altogether differ ent story, claiming that the local men would work only when they felt like It and therefore he had to hire out side help.
 The real trouble arose when he turn ed off some some local men and hired outsiders when there were other local Iaborers looking for employment The local crowd claim that they are union men and that they will stand or fall together
 Foreman Berard is authority for the statement that the slight demonstra- ton would not cause the company any inconvenience, as it still had ninety men left at work on the job. This statement bears out the contention of the local 1aborers, showing that out siders are employed in the ratio of 3 to 1.
 The intelligent Italian laborers of the city who have resided here for quite a period of time intend to ob- tain the rights that are their just due but do not contemplate any violence. All were good natured Thursday but dld not like the way they had been used by the foreman.
