Norwich bulletin., 1915-04-10

Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employees against the United Empire Railways was reached tonight.
 Protracted Labor Warfare.
 Every indication points to a protract- ed labor warfare that may eventually engulf not only tine transportation systems of this city, but also those Of Rochester and Buffalo. Only the most powerful mediation, it was said, could prevent an open break between the traction companies and their employees.
 injunction Granted.
 The injunction was granted by Jus tice William S. Andrews in an action brought by the Auburn and Syracuse Electric Railroad company against the New York State Railways. In addi- tion to the restraining clause, the court ordered the defendant company to re- place immediately it's trolley and feed wires and other apparatus near the city line. Today, at the direction of the company, over 400 feet of trolley and feed wires were taken down at the city line. The step was taken, ac. cording to General Manager Hilton of the Syracuse division of the state rail- ways, as a protection to the company and to insure the maintenance of street car service in this city.
 Steps Looking to General Strike.
 M. J. Sullivan, president of the local division of the Amalgamated associa- ton, when told of the injunction to- night, said that unless an immediate hearing was granted steps looking to a general strike would be at once taken. No Strike Vote Before Monday. "No strike vote will be taken before Monday" said MT. Sullivan. '"The casting of the vote will require several hours, and there Is no doubt as to the outcome. Only 51 per cent. is required and we are sure of a big majority. The injunction means a general tie-up. The strike will not bs declared in one city at one time and in another later, but the men will quit here, in Rochester and in Buffalo at the same hour of the same day.
 Local trolley officials looked with favor upon the conference at Chicago tonight between Warren S. Stone, chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineers: W. D. Mahon, international president of the Amalgamated associa- 1 tion; Horace E. Andrews of Cleveland, president of the New York State Rail- ways, and c. Loomis Allen, and hopes | were expressed from this conference some amicable solution of the difficulty | would arise
