1)the league, like local 25, had expected a turnout of four or five thousand. they were bowled over by this army, utterly unprepared for it. they had organized strikes in the garment trade, small ones, usually confined to a single shop, but never before had they undertaken something on so vast a scale. they might fail, might be laughed at by the whole of new york as well as john dyche and the ilgwu men, and all the same they knew this was the challenge they'd been hoping for — their chance to show the world they were more than highbrow butters-in, just as the shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls.

3)traffic, both horses and autos, had been stopped cold, and some two hundred police reserves and plainclothesmen had been called out to maintain order. it seemed the army might at any moment erupt into the rest of manhattan, invading wall street and the bowery. by ten o’-clock 15,000 workers had left their machines. by nightfall, 25,000. within the next few days the number rose to nearly 30,000, and it included some cutters, pressers, and finishers.

5)the league, like local 25, had expected a turnout of four or five thousand. they were bowled over by this army, utterly unprepared for it. they had organized strikes in the garment trade, small ones, usually confined to a single shop, but never before had they undertaken something on so vast a scale. they might fail, might be laughed at by the whole of new york as well as john dyche and the ilgwu men, and all the same they knew this was the challenge they'd been hoping for — their chance to show the world they were more than highbrow butters-in, just as the shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls.

the reader could make the connection between the “league” and the third sentence, which explains that they “organized strikes in the garment trade.”
