The reason given for the renewal of the strike was the alleged fact that dealers who had yielded proceeded to help other deal- ers who had not. ‘The dealers estimate that the sup- Bly of potatoes in New York will not last longer than three days. More perishable vegetables and fruits will be exhausted in less time than that, raw lied the dealers. ‘They have asked for police protec- tion and announced that they will use their clerks and other office workers in an effort to get the work done that has been abandoned’ by the strikers, Dealers say that the city faces a joss of 500 carloads of food daily and that they themselves lost about $300,- 000 worth of perishable food to-day.
