—-Tiill- ■ 7inni r jui !■!■■■! ■ !■■ ..|.i . REASONS WHY THE STRIKE OF SHOP I CRAFTS AT POINTS ON ERIE RAILROAD CANNOT WIN * / First: The United States has, by the appointment of Deputy United States Marshals, insured the protection of men who desire to work. Second: 4,020 shopmen are at work today on cars and engines at Erie Railroad points, which force is being increased daily. These facts are published for the information of those who are being given contrary statements by interested parties. No strike can win that is handicapped, by such odds. My advice to all shop men is to come back while they may. It may not be many days before it will be too late. J. G. JUNE, Superintendent. iM—Bnn — : —■>
