new SITUATION IN THE STRIKE

A strikebreakers strike occurred
yesterday morning in Sparks when
between rs and 1875 men employed
laid down their tools and refused
to work until a number of griev-
ances had been settled by the COM
pany.
The grounds given for the refus-
al to confined work, according to
the leaders in the movement, We're
that the company was providing
poor accommodations for the work
men employed in the shops, and
also that the men were b eing mis-
treated.
The majority of the strikebreak-
ers are employed under thirty-day
contracts, and the men asserted
that the company would not
furnish free transportation to the
men at expiration of their contract
or if discharged. Several strike
breakers claimed that they were
unable to secure their salary if
they quit until the expirat con Of
the thiry-day period, and further
asserted that it was illegal to hire
contract labor whether the con.
tract is legal or otherwise.
When asked concerning the out.
come of the affair, several railroad
officials last evening denied that
such strike had occurred and
claimed no disagreement had come
up between the strikebreakers and
officials. 1t was admitted that the
men had demanded free transpor-
tatiOn at the expiration Of their
contracts hut the transportation
was not furnished. Reno Jou nal.
