The two sides in the 10-day-old New York hotel strike met for four hours, their longest session since the walkout began, but a union leader said there had been no progress. Vito Pitta, president of the New York Hotel-Motel Trades Council, said both sides had agreed to meet again today.

The walkout by 16,000 workers has affected 53 of the city’s most prestigious hotels and comes at the beginning of the tourist season.
