TIPPERARY GASWORKS.
TAKEN OVER BY WORKERS
(Received 7.25 p.m.) London, March 5. —The Tipperary Gas Company’s refusal to pay standard wages to certain employees led the local branch of the Transport Workers’ Union to take over the gasworks. They hoisted the red flag, dismissed the manager, and installed as his successor a recently-dismissed employee. The workers declare their intention of running the concern in the interests of the citizens.—(Reuter).
