of the strike at midnight of the W“
men. conductors. power house and
car barn employee on the lines. The
walkout electing between 600 and
700 men, followed the failure of the
men and company to reach an agree-
ment on a new wage scale demanded
by the men. The old agreement 01-.
pired at midnight, and the new sale
asked for by the men provided for a,
maximum of 35 cents an hour after
three years' service. The company
uttered a compromise of a 32 cent
maximum, and the situation dead-
locked. i
President R. W. Perkins of the
company today posted a notice in-
forming the strikers that unless they
returned to work within twenty-four
hours they could consider themselves
no longer in the company‘s eruploy.
and new men would be brought in to
take their places. it was also an-
nounced that suihoient men had been
secured to take the places of the
striking power house men. and that
the plant was in operation.
No disturbances of any kind have
been reported. Drivers of licensed
motor vehicles did driving business
today in this and other cities and
towns affected by the strike.
MYSTIC, June l.—The strike on

country, getting in hours late for
work. , Automobiles, farm wagons,
grocery wagons and any available
Vehicles were used to get them to
work. The high school in StoniJgton

In the decision which the Metal
Public Utilities Commission has given
on the petition of Miss ll. L. Hewitt
and other schwl teachers in Stoning-

trolley fares on the line of the uroton

tral suites are. established in the place
of terminals. The finding on which
the decision is based says that thereI
are four places which in their effect
upon both local riding and riding
between villages work some
injustice to patrons of the road.
These are at or near Brooks ‘street,l
