GARMENT STRIKERS
RIOT IN NEW YORK
Attacks Strikebreakers and
Policeman-Other
Strikes

New York, January 20.-A few thou
sand girls went TO work in the dress
and shirtwaist factories today, but in
other branches of the garment makers
trades the strike developed more vio-
lence than the police have had to con-
tend with since the trouble began.
Rioting started before daylight when
members of the United Garment Work
ers of America learned that strike
breakers were to be brought into the
factories as early as o'clock
The strikebreakers were attacked
as they came out of the subway stations
and the police say that East Side gang
sters played an important part in
these battles. Most of the rioting was
in the area bounded by Fifth avenue
and the Bowery, between Blocker and
Fourteenth streets Men and women
were beaten and trampled and police
men engaged in rough and tumble
fights all over the street More than
80 arrests were made.
The supreme court was asked this
afternoon to grant a sweeping injunc-
ton against the employees of manufac-
turers belonging to the New York
clothing trades association. The in
junction, if granted, would restrain the
strikers from all manner of interior
ence with employees who remain al
work

were artistic which, with the clever per-

yet presented during the present Bijou
