There are only two men on the local division employed as members of car crews who are not union members. One of these reported for duty Thursday morning, but as the company had de- cided not to send out any cars he could not go out over his usual run. Just what trolley service now means to the towns along the Quinebaug valley was not long _in being demon- strated Thursday.

Thursdays Inconverience. ‘The abrupt su n of the service Thursday put a different light upon the proposition. No cars came to accom- modate the many who have come to depend upon them as a means of transportation to and from the places where their occupations or business called, and there was a’ quick sensing of the fact {hat trolley service has be- ccme quite indispensable between a Wh-,lulhyap-offioumhwnnghmew ig besides good looks.

I Harvest Time for Jitneys. As in other towns along the line, Ilnenttmmatea’uuuelou business relations. Jitneys on the Job. ‘The Jitmsy “brigade w to '.he mill operatives to their work in mmvflle, Dayville, Willlamsville, Wau- regan or any other place where they ‘wanted to go. Later in the more jitneys put in an ap) by noon there was & surplus of care in the service. The same was true in towns and villages all along the troll line. The jitney men were not at fussy about meeting the trolley com- ‘pany’s copper zone rates, which repre- sent a slight advance over the oid nickel for a fare limit scale, but went to it strong, u.!k.ln‘, for instance, a dollar a passenger from Danijelson to Putnam. - The trolley company’s rate is 18 cents. Paid What Was Asked. Rates of different drivers varied, there being no fixed schedule of charg- ing,.but in every case the prices were high above what is eharged on the electric cars. The many. 10 must travel paid what was asked, though, and got to business in more or less style.” For Hire signs continued to flash on additional cars ‘hroughout the day, so there is ng reason to doubt that there will be plenty of means dur- ing the strike to get quickly from town to town if one is willing to pay the price. Student Transportation Cost Increased, An interesting phase of the strike situation was its effect ‘what might be called the student service. A large number of Killingly High school students come into _Dani every morning by trolley. They fepresdnt l" the villages of the town, other towns and communities, some few coming They travel on school - tickets, at a rate. Thursday morning those who came to school had to be brought here in au- tomobiles. This cost five times and in some cases ten times as much as the trglley” ticket Costs, and the stu- lents were on the verge Thursday of rting a strike, of their own—a strike that will mean quitting their studies until. such time as the trolleys are 2gain in operation or the town sees fit to meet the cost of ‘their transpor- tation. Incidentally. some of the stu- dents seized npon the trolley tieup as an excuse to cut school—claiming lack of transportation facilities. Road Kept Mail-Carrying Contract. The tn:lley company managed dur- ing Thursday to comply with its mail- carrying contracts: over the line be- tween Danielson and Bast Killingly. Walter Card was ahppoimfi by the company to carry the mails by .auto- mohile between the places mentioned, and he performed the service during the day. Milk Sent by Teams. More than 1,000 quarts of milk were also sent out of the town in the morn- ing, teams taking it over to East Kil- lingly, where the milk car was run to take the mflk into Providence, car in charge of a Rhode Island pany crew. Stopped Freight /Service. The strike cuts off Danielson’s trol- ley communication with Providence and intervening towns alenx the old Providence and Danielson road, which is in operation, however, between Prov- idence and East Killingly. This means tl;:;.mufl i q it .:W;“ i P goods is put out of mission for the time being. 0& of the Rhode Island company, knowing Wednesday night what- was coming, noti concerns here that they would le to get their cars through to Danielson on Thursday.

Thers were no five or ten-cent trips to surroand- ing villages, but the prices were no more than are ordinarily charged for automobile service. - One traveling man who hired a car to drive him down to Dayville, ordered the machine stopped and himsé€lf let out when he found that he was going to be charged the usual rate of $1.50 for going to Dayville. He said he expected to pay 10 cents, which was regarded by the driver as a real comsérvative expec- tation. Steam Road Well Patronized. The steam road trains drew fauch more business between Putnam and points ‘south and north om the Nor- wich division as the result of the e. Public Patient Yet. The loss o! the trolley service did not begin to h not restored. On Thursday the strike ol‘ppe‘led to the public as something an interesting noveity for this lecflan. where strikes of any kind few and far between. There were many inquiries as, to whether the service would be restored CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ACTS IN EMERGENCY —— Proposition to Get erati of Similar Bodies to ' Effect Mediation in Strike Difficulty. — The secretary of the Putnam Cham- ber of Commerce gave out the fol- lowing statement late Thursday | af- Planned for Gfimhr of Commerce— Teams ‘Alrnly Appointed.
