when tho contractors attempted t
resume work with new men nnd r
turning strikers to-day. there w.re
no reports of trouble For the llrs!
tlmo in two weeks, tho contrac'ots
made a real cITort to resumo work.
About two thousand "sand hogs" and
shorers went down Into the wot kings,
out of tbo full quota of ten thous.ip.il
required. J
At thd head of the Old Slip shaft
of the Hast ltlvrr tunnel there were
ono hundred men waiting for work
for which 500 are required. Major
O'Hourko of tho Fllmt-O'Iiourkc
Company, tho lost of whoso tunnel

having groat dltllciilty In finding
strikebreakers.
"We would not hesitate to till th- ,

Hugh Franey of tho American

President Samuel Oompern the pro
test of Major O'Hourko that the
union Iihh violated Its contract with

union tho contract was broken by
tho contractors when they required
their men to work more than six
hours ut a shift under nn air pressure
of twenty-two pounds.
Frank X. Sullivan, counsel for the
