 Car Strike Are Rife
100 Men Brought to City to Take Places of
 Men Leaving.
ZONE SYSTEM IS
 TOO COMPLICATED

Rumors of a trolley strike were rife today due to the fact that 100 men from Boston and Providence have been brought to Bridgeport during the past few days by The Connecticut Co. They are to take the place of their old employees who are leaving the employ of the company in large numbers on account of the onerous duties placed on them by the new zone system.
 The out of town men have been placed in the Hotel Drew and other hotels and boarding houses near the car barns and are being broken into their duties as fast as possible.
 One of the old conductors this morning said that 40 or 50 men who were members of the trolley mems union had given up their jobs since the zone system went into effect and that meeting of the union will soon be held to take action on the mat ter.
 One of the Boston men said that he came here with a party of 15, Monday, and that out of that num- Der only four had gone to work for the trolley company, the other II re- turned to their homes, refusing to go to work, after looking over the situation here.
