William Steinway’s diary: “Yesterday and today a number of dispossess warrants are served on the Astoria Strikers. Meeting of N.Y. strikers yesterday results after stormy session that they adhere to their absurd demands. Card of action makers reads well. Signs of breaking down of the strike increase. A. Sommer sails with his family to Germany in steamer Habsburg, he having six weeks furlough.” (Within the next 6 months, Adolph Sommer will resign.)
