not even II they were free to come, find a
market In this country.
The action Of the Association was rather
surprising to a majority Of persons who
think they know considerable about the
trade, and Is a disappointment to the eight
thousand werkmen who regard this as the
best season Of the year, and who hoped
that no more suspensions would be ordered.
The manufacturers justify thek course on
the ground that jobbers seem unable to rid
themselves Of The impression that they
should regulate the price Of nails and that
those who manufacture should have moth
ing to say concerning the price. 1--WE are
determined to correct this impression" :"

the meeting, "and will do SO II it Is necess.

Bro. K Co. and the men that they employ.
About week ago the puddlers were told
that they were making what Ia known
among mill men as short iron-not tough
and brittle-for which some men were dis.
charged. The men, on their part, claim
that Il is impossible to produce good muck
iron from the quality OF metal that they
received. Last week number were dis.
charged, and few were reprimanded for
their work. 0tthese, some left the works
considering themselves discharged. The
matter was closely investigated by the
firm and those experimenting the
works, and 1t was not long before matters
were amicably arranged, and all Of the
discharged were reinstated excepting one,
puddler. This man the firm refused to
take back, he having been discharged be-
fore for infore for inferior work and other
reasons. Meantime the puddlers held a
meeting, at which 1t was decided not TO 20
