shot In the air fired by the bluecoat
was answered by another shot, and in
the running match between the strik-
ers and police a few scattering bullets
went wide. The men disappeared
around the mountainside to Eagle Rock
avenue, below the quarry. and got
away before Busold could corral any
of them.
The incident was the first serious
outbreak following negotiations be-
tween the bosses and men. 1t is feared
the quarry owners will continue to re-
fuse to sign the agreement and a sharp
lookout Is being kept by the town po-
lice to avoid threatened trouble.
At the strikers headquarters today 1t
was reported that no other small con-
tractors had signed the union agree
ment, but the news of continued oppo-
sition from the quarry folk vas dis
h~eartening.
The Public Service Gas Company has
hired about $50 men from outside
Orange to take the place of those who
are on strike. The company intends to
take such steps as may be necessary~to
protect It's men, and will ask the co.
operation of the police.
The company holds that the strikers
have abandoned their work, and that
1t is incumbent upon the company to
continue 1t Immediately. No negotia-
tions have been made with the strikers.

TWO CARS STRIKE AUTO;
NEWARK WOMAN INJURED.
Mrs. Clarence Hodsoh Thrown
from Machine in Accident.

Mrs. Clarence Hodson, of Newark.
was thrown from her automobile in a
collision with two trolley cars, on
Bloomfield avenue. Montclair. yester-
day afternoon. The accident occurred
in front of the Bank of Montclair. She
sustained a slight scalp wound.
Mrs. Hodson, in company with her
husband n a chauffeur, drove up to
the bank, and when Mr.. Hodson
alighted the chauffeur began to turn
his car towards Newark. In doing so
he crossed the trolley tracks. A Val
ley road car going west hit the auto
mobile and Mrs. Hodson became
frightened. She started to leave the
car, and as she did so an eastbound
Bloomfield avenue car struck the auto
mobile. This caused her to fall to the
ground.
She was taken into the bank and a
physician was summoned. 1t was
found that the woman was suffering
more from shock than from injuries.
In a short time she was able to go
home.
Policeman Patrick Cannon, who wit
messed the affair. says that the chauf-
feur Of the machine did too much
backing up without looking where he
was going.

Not once In thirty-five years has Mrs.
