Block Efforts of Police.

When the strike sympathizers discov-

front end of the car and resisted the
muscular efforts of the police. AL
though the men scattered at the use of
the clubs. they returned quickly when
the police returned to the cars and the
effort was given up.
Much talk was current the streets
that sympathetic strikes would be called
by numerous trades, and there was a re-
port that the building trades might call
strike. No such action had been taken
up to noon, however
Most of the factories were short hand
ed, owing to the inability of employees to
reach their places of business. The auto

have sprung into life Since the calling of
the strike could handle only a small pro-
