There was no demonstration by the striking track-walkers employed by the New Haven road, this morning. It was necessary yesterday for the police to order several of the strikers off the tracks of the company, but this morning the men merely gathered at the corner of Water street and Columbus avenue. A short informal meeting was held, after which the men dispersed. Some moved towards their homes, while others went towards the railroad tracks though apparently for no important purpose.
A detail of eight policemen from headquarters has been stationed at points near the track from Union station to Cedar Hill. No disturbance had taken place all morning and there was little to indicate that there would be this afternoon. It is said that the railroad company would replace the strikers with men from New York. Unless that course is taken it is generally believed that there will be little or no trouble presently.
The work trains did not pull out of the yards this morning as usual. It could not be learned if an effort will be made to do so late today or tomorrow.
