THE FALL RIVER STRIKE.
ALI the Mills at Work-Precautions t,
Preserve Order

Preserve Order.
FALL RIVER, June 2S.-The mills are all
running this morning with the exception of the
Narragansett, which shut down yesterday noon.
Some mills have gained a few spinners today
and others lost but on the whole there has
been gain of ten pairs of mules over yester-
day. 1t was generally thought that the mills
would have considerable difficulty in starting
today, and manufacturers feel encouraged at
the situation. AT one mill this morning two
spinners were reported at work. There is no in
timidation by violence, but manufacturers saw
threats are made, and quite number of men
who were at work yesterday are out today
through fear. 1t is possible that in one case
where the threatening parties are known some
arrests may be made. Several men who came
mere from out OF town, it is also reported, have
been hired by the spinners to return to their
homes. The depots are all watched by spin
ners and imported help are solicited to return
A committee OF spinners waited on the Mavor
this morning asking that the extra police be
withdrawn from the streets and kept at the
station where they could be readily called in
case of disturbance.
1t IS thought the presence of so many police
men on the streets is regarded by many of the
spmners as menace. The Mayor said he
should try to act as disinterested party during
the strike, but preserve order, and the extra
police were only put on to prevent the outbreak
OF any disturbance. The spinners would not
be interfered with by the police if they 1.-THE
spinners) preserved order.
The spinners' meeting tonight ON account of
the intense heat was only of one hours dura-
ton. Resolutions were adopted declaring they
will stand firm, and strongly censuring the
manufacturers for endeavoring to make the
splnners share in the general depression of
lrade. The resolutions also insist that as the
spinners contributed so much to the wealth of
the city it is the duty of the city to assist them
Those who have families urged the request for
such aid without delay. 1t will be determined
tomorrow whether the weavers will join the
spinners. The spinners Indignantly repel as
sertions that they propose disturbances. A cir
cular has been issued to the workingmen of
America reciting the grievances of the spinners
and asking for assistance.

road
PORTSMOUTH, june 27-An important meet
ing took place in this city yesterday by parties
IN portsmouth, Dover and other places relative
to proposition of the Eastern Railroad to re-
duce the capital stock of the Portsmouth and

cent. of interest on the lease of this branch to

should have by about one-thrd, and conse-
quently they are paying interest on one-third
more stock than is just They also complain
that the rate OF interest, which is now six per
cent, should be cut down one-third. These pro-
positions were fully and earnestly discussed
and finally committee, consisting of Hon.
Frank Jones, Mayor Sise of this city, John S.
ii. Greenland, and Mayor Guppey of Dover,
were appointed in reference to the matter An
