of strikers is increasing daily, and by the
end OF this week it is expected that with
two exceptions every mill in the
district will be closed. The operative
spinners OF Hyde will meet shortly
to discuss the reduction OF wages and
decide whether there shall be stoppage OF
the mills throughout the whole district.
Quite panic has been created in GlosSop Dy
