The Brotherhood of Interborough
Employees. which says it is going to tie
up all the car lines in Manhattan unless
it's employers give its members a so per

strike-breaking organization by the
company against which it is now fight

In 1916 Frank Hedley. general man

union of his employees to combat the
general traction strike declared in Man

this agency, the subway and elevated
lines we're kept running despite the

Union Leaders Say City Will
Be Dark Tomorrow Night
and 5000 Homes Already
Are Without a Supply
300 Meter Readers to Quit
Company Ayers Men Are
Loyal and Will Stay at
Posts; Minimizes Danger

Gas makers in three more plants of
the Brooklyn Union Gas Company have
given their consent to joint the strike
of the company's employees called last
Thursday, strike leaders announced
yesterday. Frank Killorin. leader of
the strike, declared that the gas max
ers probably will be called out this
afternoon. This would mean that by
tomorrow night the city will be with
out gas, as the spare supply on hand,
only from twelve to twentyfour hours.
According to strike leaders, there
are now nearly 5000 homes without gas
in Brooklyn These are places where
occupants have just moved in and
whose applications for service cannot
be acted upon by the company because
there are no men to open the meters.
Meter Readers Go Out
Three hundred and ninety indexers of
the Brooklyn Union Gas Company--the
men who read the meters-joined the
strike yesterday, bringing the total
number of strikers to 1900. The in
dexers also declined to accept the offer
of the company for an increase of 25.
In addition to the indexers, the
the filters, jobbers, lamp trimmers,
helpers, store clerks, shop clerks,
chauffeurs and part Of the emergency
men. Strike leaders said yesterday that
all of the latter will be out by to-
morrow.
The total number of gas makers in
the employ of the company is only
about $50, but their work is of such
Importance that walkout by them
would seriously cripple the lighting
and heating facilities of the city and
would entail greater discomforts to the
population than the recent strike of
Transit Company.
Despite the determination of the
strikers to deprive the city Of gas in
the event the company refuses to agree
to their demands, company officials took
a calm view of the situation yesterday.
The following statement was issued
from the Office of the Kings County
Lighting Company, 1902 New Utrecht

William Fox, representing the East

that the employees would consent to
