talus plying between New York and1
Boston which has been called for
July 1. and which will completely
out off the coal supply by water for
this city if the owners do not grant
the demands of the captains. A dif-A
ference in pay is at the bottom of
the trouble.
The raisinc of the pay of the cap-
tains by one company started the dis—
satisfaction which has resulted in a
demand for that amount from all own-
ers. They ask for $70 a month. This
rate. applies to those going only as
far as Boston. Captains going beyond
ask $95‘a month.
About 1,500 captains will go out
it is claimed, although not manyo of‘
them live here. They are members of
the Lougshoremen’s union and are
one of the best organized of the
branches of the A. F. of L. ‘
Norwalk men interested «in ship-
'ping claim that there is no doubt but

for the reason that the shippers real-
Ize that a strike would be success-
ful.
the captains would all go out: but at-
so that no men could be procured.
