One of the strikers told a Herald reporter thi~ afternoon that they pre- Ise?nted written demands a week ago, giving notize that they would walk out. - The striker said a foreman had torn up the notice and had not ap- praised the officials of the demands. Strike at Corbin Annex. Forty-five moulders employed in one of the foundries of the P. & F. Corbin Annex of the American Hard- ware Corporation refused to go to work today and demanded an in- crease in wages of twenty-five per cent. Shortly afterwards a delegation of strikers visited the Herald office and explained their grievances, “At present we are paid by piece- Work and some of us can’t make $2 a day," said the spokesman. “We want an increase of twenty-fivi the dollar.” i About a dozen helpers in the same foundry quit work yvesterday and ac- cording to the spokesman of the del- egation they want an increase in pay from §1.50 to $2 per day. There is no .union among the moulders but it is said they intend to perfect an ory: ation, J. J. Munscn, superintendent of the Corbin Annex said about an hour after the men went out on strike, that they were going out just as he was eniering the foundry for the day. The men claim they stated their grievances to him and Mr. Munson says he told | them it would be better for all con- ! cerned if they recturned to their work. He explained that the foun- dry was not very busy and that it had been kept in operation five days & week in order that the men might not be forced to loaf. The moulders refused to heed hiz words and insist- ed on going out, Mr. Munson says. Regarding the statement of the ccramittee that some of the mould- ers are not able to earn $2 per day, he said many of them earn $4 per day. He ascribed their determination to strike to the heat and the strike fever in tie state. He also said the | plant was not crippled by the strike and that it was in operation as if | nothing had hubpened out of the or- dinary. No Statement from President. President H. C. M. Thomson of the American Hardware Corporation declined to make any statement re- garding the surike. He saig the first | information he had of it was from the Herald. Asked whether he would make a stalement later in the day he replied in the negative. Charles E. Parsons, general mana- ger of I'. & F. Corbin’s ana vice president of the American Hardware Corporation, declined to make any statement. Disorder Quelled. Sept. 17.—About 400 men and women omployes of the rubber factory of L. Candee and company struck today for an increase | in wages. Some disorder, incident to the walkout was quelled by the police, New Haven, who dispersed the strikers. The increase asked is approximate- ly ten per cent. A committee of the employes made the demand on the company during the forenoon, and it is understood they werc asked to wait a few days as no immediate answer could be given. When the coramittee reported back to the employes they all walked out. They became Lojsterous as they left the place, and the detail of police which had been sent down dispersed then. The strikers will hold a meeting during the afierncon to organize. About 1,500 are employed at the plant, and it was believed that unless a solution of the trouble was reached shortly thc shops might be forced to shut dowa. More Trouble in Bridgeport. Bridgeport Sept. 17.—There is a possibility of more labor troubles in industrial plants here in which there have been strikes and adjustments. The Bryant Electric and the Crane Valve companies may become involv- ed again- In the former it is sa that employes are dissatisfied becausc of the dischargz of a man whd is caid to have been active in the or- ganization of the machinists. A shop committee is to shave a conference with Waldo C. Bryant, the head of the concern, and the demand to be made it is understood is that a rea- son be given for the man’' discharge. If it is admitted that reason is only that the employe was active in union the shop cimmittee will eall a meeting to have all employes vote on the question of ordering another general strike in the plant. At the Crame company claim is that wom- en core makers are receiving less wages under the adjustment than they got before, and ‘f this be so the em- ployes will decide whether or not a second strike shall be called. President Carli Siemon of the Sie- mon Hard Rubber company has de- finitely stated that he will not grant the demands H>f his employes and the strike there will continue Employes in the American Tube and Stamping company have been called to meet next week Thursduy to decide upon the nature of the de- mands to be made, and on Monday night employes of the Baird Machine company will meet for a like purpose. Reports from other strikes were that conditions were unchanged. Benefit Dance. Torrington, Sept. 17.—The Turner and Seymour Mfg. Co. today an- nounced that it had adopted a work- ing schedule of 55 hours per week and had decided to pay time and a quar- ter for overtime, The wage system had been recently readjusted. The strike situation at the Hendey Machine plant remains unchanged. the | Presiden: o | chamber ; |5 letter Mol [l o the COODEruign commerce W gian servance of ; chamber is | such a comnity Chsirman Hol reau of the chami named the follo | bring in nominati The credit bureau of commerce held morning and received | ress.
