Ia the Youth-Other Opinions.

New York, March liza special from
Washington to the New York Times says !:
l.i!tls by little, but surely, the oillce.holder
who Is at The mercy Of the Administration
Is allowing 1t to become known that "he Is
Tor Arthur"-of course, in the sense that
Senator Riddleberger, Of Virginia, was "lor
Arthur" because Arthur twas for u.s."
Stalwarts, in and out OF office, in New York
State, who have been here recently, have
allowed their preferences to become known
somewhat vociferously, after short talks,
and one Of these gentlemen. a Revenue
Collector, was Dragging that the wonderful
showing Of strength recently made in tho
spring election In bis county was to be at
lributed to the unanimity OF the people OF
his district and ITO their desire to see
Arthur renominated." People who have
heard this story here laughed to learn that
the mere hope ol Arthur's denomination
could 80 stir the votcrs OF ons section.
The fact IL that very plain attempt has
been made to assure everybody here that
Arthur Is stronger at home than his oppo-
nents would tate to have him, probably
with the expectation that report oil this
kind might serve to remove some OF the
real opposition at home. The Revenue
Collector referred TO, made another 70.
mark to friend which has been repeated
With comment. He said: "Edmunds
would suit the State very well Il Arthur
cannot be nominated" The men who
have commented are tie friends Of Sena.
tor Miller, who insists that Edmunds and
Arthur are working together, and that be
who has the bigger following is
to have all. At the White House,
the other day, the President said to
visiting Stalwart who told him OF
several districts in which he thought Ed.
mund's delegates would be elected; "That's
all tight; Edmund's strength is nv
strength" He has jealous advocates about
the halls Of Congress. Mr.. Burleigb, OF
Washington, who managed Titus sheard's
canvass for Speaker, is an outspoken Arthur
man, and gives everybody he meets the
idea that the business men all over the
country are for him and will insist that he
shall be nominated. Whoever else NAV
demand the Presidents nomination, there
are very few persons beyond oHice.holders
who speak for him in a perfunctory way,
and those whose chances OF continuance de.
pend largely upon his re election, who are
advocating his nomination at Chicago.

Pottery Girls kuit,

| AN AntcfcNtInS DECISION In Regard 10 q
Pottery Girls suit. ~
TRENTON. N. j., March ll.-Judge Wood,
ruff today rendered a decision favorable tc
the plaintiff In the case OF Mary Slater,
against Piiuy Fisk, Of the American Crock
cry Company. It was the seconl trial o.
the case, and has attracted widespread al.
tsntion owing to the fact that 1t involved
the rights OF certain working people. The
Knights OF Labor contributed the money
for Miss Slatterys prosecution. The
plaintiff brought the suit 10 recover dam.
ayes caused by her discharge and subss.
quent loss Of wages from the
Union Pottery Company, on account
OF words spoken by the defendant to
the proprietor otthe Union Pottery Com.
pany, Henry ]. Cook. Previous to her EN-.
ploynent by the Union Pottery Comyany
the plaintiff had been In the employ Of
tho American Crockery Company, Of which
tho defendant is President, and previous
TO her engaging with the American Crock.
cry Company she had been in tho employ
OF tho New Jersey Pottery Company, up
to the time Of its failure. for period ot
about eighteen months, when Bhe was en-.
gagged by the Union pottery. She was
paid IS a week, whereas she had only re-.
ceived SCI at the American Crockery
Company.
1t Is q custom among the pottery com.
panies, though not universally followed, to
give and 10 receive two weeks, notice Of
the intention 10 terminate the, service Of
the j9urneymen, and this custom, it seems,
has the sanction Of both the employers and
employees, and It Is but a fair and reasone.
BILE regulation; equally beneficial to en-.
ployer ands0employe.S Fisk maintain d
that Miss Slattery wss an apprentice, a d
therefore he would not give her q d 8.
chrrge,e nor would he receive noti
from her. AT the end Of two weeks 81 Q
left and went to the Union. She was
there for six weeka, and was then discharg.
ed by Mr.. Cook 1t Fjsk's request on the
ground that she WAS an employe Of Fisk.
Miss Slattery won at the first trial. The
decision was appealed from. The appeal
was set uside aud a new trial ordered.
This resulted again In n verdict in Mics
Slattery's favor to the amount OF $72. The
Court held that plaintiff was discharged
owing 10 words spoken by defendant, and
that the defendants Representation to Cook
was not true. The Knights Of labor and
the labo,ing classes generally are jubilant
over the result.

Another special from the same place
says: A Republican officeholder connect
ed with the Administration says: 1--WE
are sincerely for Arthur, but we have grave
doubts as to bis success, and our doubts
are based upon the way things look in New
York. It is not hopeful there. There is
no open noise, but We know that there is
a great deal Of very earnest, quiet, effective
work being done in rural New York to
secure anti.Arthur delegates. The opposi-
ton is the more serious because it is not
demonstrative. President Arthur himself
admits that il there should be even a small
number Of delegates from that State who
should be bitterly opposed to him it might
be very unwise to accept the nomination
under such circumstances. The trouble Is,
that the delegates who will be anti-Arthur
delegates from New York will come from
the Republican territory, while the greater
portion OF the Arthur delegates will come
from Democratic cities. '7-tr7
