Of boatmen are opposed 10 accepting 90
cents per ton freight, the rate which. Il is
pretty we'll settled, the principal companies
nave agreed upon TO pay. The George 5
Creek and Blaen Avon Companies shipped
all last week, it Is said, at 81 freight The
Consolidation Company had shipped for Il
few days past, and Saturday it was ,~Cer,
tanned they were paying but 80 cents AS
soon as this was generally known the Rlacn
Avon and Georges Creek shippers cut
down their freight TO the same figure,
wherenpon most of their boatmcn refused
to load for less than 81. and number Of
the Consolidation men did the same. About
twenty boats cleared, most Of them having
loaded before the question of reduced
ircghts was sprung, and some we're sent by
the Borden Company, whoac fiesb; rate is
not known. There are mary reports ailoat
and the fall effect OF the strike will probably
not be known for several days. Three of
the principal companies remain to begin
shipping, and it is reliably understood they
will pay but 90 cents 1T il reported there
was q meeting of boatmen Saturday even
ing at which the sentiment WAS 10 favor of
holding out for 81.
