THREE THOUSAND
 SILVER WORKERS
 IN MERIDEN QUIT

Merfden,. Oct 4.-Silver workers to the number of 5000 laid down their tools at 10 o'clock this morning and marched out of the factories of the International Silver Co. in which they were employed, because the com pany had not reconstdered it's refusal to grant certain demands made upon it by the employees organization into a union, under the American Federatio on of Labor. The factories are: E, com prising the Meriden Br1ttan1a Co. and Rogers, Smith & Co: A. the Barber Silver Co.,; H, William Rogers Manu- featuring Co.,; N.the Wilcox Silver Co. i; T, the Meriden Cut Glass Go, the par ent company using letters to designate its several plants. In addition to these factories, en- p1oyes of the Manning Bowman, Go, makers of tableware and speciaIties, also struck. The metal workers demand an eight hour day,an increase in wages and changes in shop conditions The cut glass workers want a nine hour day and increases In wages.
 By pre-arrangement the shop com nittee in each plant gave the signal at 10 o'clock and the workers quietly laid down their tools, put on their street clothes and walked out. Silver workers have been organized as a branch of the Silver Workers union while cut glass workers will form a separate part of this union, the whole nembership being unaer the Fedora ton of Labor
 The first general meeting of the strikers is called for tomorrow at city hall.
 It is not yet known whether the strike will be extended to other plants of the international Silver Go. There are two factories in Wallingford. near by. and 1t is estimated that so per cent. of the silver metal workers of the country are employed in and about this part, of Connecticut.

BIG STRIKE ON IN
 MERIDEN FACTORIES
Schenectady Electrical Man ufactories Are Scene of
 Great Walk out.

Several hundred of the 1.700 strik- CTS returned to work this morning when the factory of the Salts Textile Go. was opened after two months 1dleness.
 Opinions differ as to the result. The statement issued by the company is very optimistic. On the other hand. Henfy Cun1iffe, president of the strikers organization, said this morn ing that the attempt to open the plant was a failure. from his viewpoint.
 The following statement was au- .thorized tby Frederick Rhodes, secre- tary of the firm:
 Our factory opened today There were probably 200 or 300 whom we did not put to work, as there were so many applying that we could not stance. There are some at work in all departments and we shall give the preference for a few days yet to our old employees some of whom have not returned. Afterward, we shall fill all departments with outside help.
 All the departments in the plant now are running We are putting out a notice now that the hours hereafter will be on the basis of 52 and one half hours pere week. to 12 and 1 to 5:30 daily except Saturday, when we shall run from 7 to 12.
 The pay for the new hours will be the same as for the 55 hour week and the pay for piece work will be increased in the same proportion.
 It was further stated, at the factory that the Salts management would welcome even shorter hours, and higher pay. but that it was felt, un- der the present conditions of compe- tition with other plants in the same line, elsewhere in the country, the concessions offered now were the. best that could be- made.
 s+sWe don't believe in low wages; we believe in high wages said one Of the executives. tsWe want to pay as much as we can without forgetting the necessity of self Dreservation.

 Tomorrow is the last day for filing for publication, as required by law, but two tickets had been made pulp lie. / These are:
 Sixth District: William J. Moran, 1464 North avenue; Lawrence Foley. 27 Rosedale street; Martic Lutz, Woodside avenue; Andrew T. Camp bell, 611 Grand street; Peter Glen non, Jr., 127 Hurd avenue. For Al derman. John H. Casey, 675 Grand street.

 It is understood that there will be two tickets in each of these districts. In the Sixth, Thomas McNamara has the endorsement of a number of Democrats for alderman, and there will be ticket bearing his name.
 Chairman Lavery was optimistic today over the prospects. '"The pri- maries, I believe, will develop but two or three contests he said.
