LAST WORD TO STRIKING TROLLEY 'EMPLOYES Must Report Before 1 p. m. Today or Lose All Privileges, Seniority Ratings, Etc. What was regarded as virtually an uitimatum to striking employes was Eled at the car house of the 8. L. ectric Rallway company at Da: ville just befflre 3 o'clock Friday a: joon, and it was also taken as in- dicating that the company proposes to operate cars today, even though it Is necessary to use new crews. The text of the notice posted at the car house, coples being sent to ‘the strikérs, was as follows: Store Line Electric Railway Company, Dayville, Conn., June 32, 1916. NOTICE. The management ‘af -the-Shore Line Electric Railway Company hereby no- tify all concerned that it -has secured & sufficlent number of employes to operate its lines in full on all divis- lons, and those employes who have to report for duty-since June 1, {05 win Sose ait privileges, seciority ratings, etc., with the company unless they report to the local superintend- ent or at the general manager's office not later than 1 . m, Saturday, June 3, 1916, Employes who do not report as above before the time stated will se- ¢ure their wages and any amount due them in the proper way. THE SHORE LINE BLECTRIC RAIUWAY COMPANY, WILLIAM S. ORMSBEE, Assistant Stperintendent. mass meeting of strikers to be held in Norwich, STRIKE MAY IPREAD TO NEARBY l‘I‘A'l‘u Massachusetts and Rhode Island Men May Refuse to Accept Cars from ‘Strike-breakers. The prediction that employes on connecting trolley lines into Massa- 5 I 9 e chusetts and Rhode Island are likely |of to become involved as strikers if the Shore Line Electric Rallway company attempts to operate cars with strike= breaking crews over the local lne was made here Friday by men wWho bave lefe their johe with the Shued They say they have company. be-n assured by men optrating cars | Dea between Webster and West Th an inter-state section of road, that the Webster line men will not accept any vars from strike-breaking crews. The local men say also that the operatives of the Rhode Island company funning cars over the -ovidence-Danielson line, another inter-state stretch of road, are in sympathy with them and will ‘back them to the limit. This claim of the strikers on thi division indlcates the likelihood of spreading the strike into two more states. The Webster-West Thompson line is in operation, as is the Provi- dence-Danielson line, as far as East Kilingly, but these roads are getting no business from their Windham county connections except such as comes to them from other sources than the Shore Line's service. No_attempt was made to run cars between West Thompson and Central Village Friday, when the situation was exactly as on Thursday, the first day of the strike. Everybody con- cerned in the affair—company and striking_employes—continued to sit tight. The trolleymen say they are . | determined to stay out until their de- mands are granted. They are taking the whole question very quietly and s |are just patieptly awaiting develop- ments, which, long delayed. Business Men Anxious. The business men were becoming more concerned over the strike situa- tion on Friday. Many of them sought unsuccessfully during the day for the announcement that the lines would be In operation today, for Saturday brings a great many out of town shoppers to Danlelson and these buyvers leave hundreds of dollars here. Lack of trolley service today is going to mean serious trade losses for the merchants and it fs not at all surprising that they' are growing anxious over the situation, though not inclined to cri- ticise either side in the controversy. Fewer Jitneys Friday. There was & reduction of the num- ber of jitneys in service Friday. Some of those who engaged during Thurs- day in the passenger- carrying -busi- ness found after a hard day'’s work that they had their labor for their pains, notwithstanding that they re- they say, cannot be celved liberal prices for most of the | Lo: work ‘done. The cost 0f automobile operation this year, however, added to wear and tear on machines and tires and allowance for a day’s ‘pay for the chauffeur makes the jitney business anything but hicrative, so some of the automobiles have beén taken out of the passenger carrying service, - The regular garage men are finding plenty to do, with rates as usual, so they are making no special bid for business by maintaining a regular service between Danlelson and places in the vicinit DENY PRESIDENT PERKINS' CLAIMS ABOUT WAGES Trolleymen Maintain That Only Man- killing Work Insures Big Pay.

Quiet at Powerhouse. At the Dayville carhouse all was ceful. The guards loitered about with nothing to t.ruublo t.hm in the way _ of urbance. strikers avoid .the carhouse, '-ho\wh a number of them are residents in a long string of cottages just in the rear of the carhouse property.

Public Wants Speedy Settlement. Friday the strike began to.take on the ominous aspect of a long-drawn- out affair, something that is dreaded by the great majority of th~ peonie of communities hereabouts. The pub= lic is very anxious for a prompt set- tlement and restoration of transpor- tation facilities on a basis that will be ‘equitable, though the public fsn't attempting to tell either the company or its employes anything about a basis of settlement. All it wants is service. BENEFIT MUSICALE Pupils of Miss Emma A.
