Both were leaders Of some prominence. Each Of
them owned II sort Of + 'siaurant. Tho cuucuses
usually took place ON" Of their saloons. where.
over pinto ol Tree ice crcam they would mature
their plans. Suddenly Eugene dis overed that
these conferences took place usually IN Jack

next night Mt his tEugrnc'sl saloon. Brand
declined to do So. using such haughtincss Of
manner that Eugene WIS consriJnrd to sug-

The proposition hcing gladly accepted by

termined whether Eugene or Brand stood high

each man should put Just ns many bullets in his
musket as he wanted ~. Taking advantage Of
this allowance. Eugene poured ful handful Of
slugs into his musket. and announced himself
ready. Brand took his position. and the word
was given. IL is not definitely known which

THE GREAT ENGLISH STRIKE.
(Troy Press. J


The strike among the operatives ofth
great .cottnn spinning districts of Eng
land, which has been impending long
time and which seems to have COM
menced, is one of many signs of the I'M
rest of Tho English workmen. The
shrewdest among them have for years rec
oxnized that the United States was rap
idly becoming a--formidable... business ri
val to their country. The employers
tell them.tbat tho time. has comci;when
1.-THE cost of production must be lessened
/ they are to maintain the lead or even
compete. with American goods. The ore-
ratives have been to all appear
ances willing to. accept reduction but
have insisted that the loss shou1d be
shared by their employers. But it seems
that tho mill ownersrare unwilling to re-
duce theirsspcr centage Of profit and theil
proposal in effect is. that tho overwork ed
and ,u"paid operatives shall bear the
whole burden. This is neither right nol
fair. The struggle, if long continued
will: be productive of misery and may per
mancntly cripple the trades involved
The employees have refused arbitration
and arc evidently preparing for long
trike.
