PrrsnuRor, juno 12.-At Amalgamated
Association headquarters to-day there WIS
little new except TINT Mr.. Weeks was uc'
cused Of misapprclcnding tho Cincinnati
situation. The only trouble there was M
obnoxious introduction OF tho term "for'
ever" About the only work Mr.. Jarrett
did there was 10 strike out that forever
the scale now in force should not be.
Tho only visitors in town to-day OH the
part OF tho workmen are tho delegates from
Bayyiew Mills, near Milwaukee, who
dropped in merely 10 pay their respects
and take squint at headquarters. W.
Tomorrow there will be n committee
meeting to revise the rules Of the Amalgu.
mated Association. They arc seven in
number ind come from all ends Of the
ah"'e""a!ea Assoc'a'soA JURISDICTION.
Whether they revise or not depends on

my customer would have some fresh cxcnsc
and leave 50 additional besides the preyious
debt, SO that he would owe me st; instead
of paying right up as he had promised.
This kind OF thing would 20 on month

$50 week, until their accounts wouli
swell into the hundreds. This il fnct,
and l can prove it by my books. Now. #
is plain to anybody il man can't nav his
