The MIlI Troubles at Fall River.
 FALL RIVER, Feb. 5.-The back boys who struck at the Meta Comet mill yesterday re- turned this morning. The Slade, Sagamore and Tecumseh mills have run out of filling and stopped. The Union mill Is running three rooms. Only three spinnsrs remain in the Quequeokan mill which was not one of the original ten that struck and 1t will shut down. The feeling of the spinners against the knobsticks is increasing. The fund in the unions treasury Is estimated at from S7,o00 to $1O,OOO. The ring spinners have caught the infection slightly this morning. Sixteen have struck in the Union and thir- teen in the Border City. The spinners act ually seem to gain courage in view of the situation. They think they have put the manufacturers in a quandary. It is certain that the present strike has peculiar features unknown in former strikes.
 NEW BEDFORD, Jan 5.-Miu owners here express general feeling that the strike in Fall River will indirectly benefit them because it will produce reduction and hence that there is more need and cause for busy looms in this section. Most of the mills here re- duced last month in less ratio than Fall River, and without exception the cut down was accepted quietly. The spinners here, while sympathizing with the strikers think that tho usual result will follow
