While approximately zoo passenger
trains were out of service yesterday on
the New York. New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad as a result of the shop
mems strike, hope was held out that the
trouble may end before Saturday.
Bulletins posted yesterday at Grand
Central Terminal and other depots of the
line showed that many changes have been
made In the company's revised schedules.
On some branches traffic that vas sus-
Tended entirely has been restored. while
other parts of the service have suffered
additional cuts.
The lines heaviest hit by the strike are
the various suburban routes located in
the vicinity of New York, Boston and
several other cities. The company Off
Gals have been obliged to sacrifice some
of these lines in order to maintain the
through train service.
At the colnpany's Offices here II was
said that traffic, curtailed as It has been
during the last few days, vas moving
smoothly, and that no more Immediate
cuts were contemplated. as the travelling
public has taken coRnizance of the sltua-
ton and la adjusted itself to meet IL
