remarkable that this change was not
followed by any disturbance OF the nervous

general appearance is improved in every
respect. He is now occupied several hours

SoUrH BExD. IED. January l3.-The
cause of the trouble is this Previous to
the meeting Of the branch board OF
managers the Olivsrs found that oEing
to the depression in trade their goods were
accommodating. At this meeting it was de-
cided that Ihey must restrict the produc-
ton. They first tried running at half time
at the old rate Of wages. This was done tor
about q fortnight. but it proved unsstisise-
tory to the men. The divers then pro-
posed . reduction Of twelve and
onehaf per cent on the average
wages throughout; the entire factory and
run full time. The Poles would not agree
to this, ard went out and we're out about
three weeks. They then agreed to accept
the reduction and went to work December
g, except the ringleaders in the previous
strike, whom the divers refused to take.
These Ingleaders melted this not and had
the men who we're az work make such an
unreasonable demand that they knew the
divers eoald not accept il. This demand
was not only the restoration Of the old wages
previous to the time Of the l2l per cent
cut, but . considerable advance. Before
this cut the men were earning an average
of from $3.50 to - per day. The strike
was made without knowing whether the
OKvers would or would not aecede to their
demands the strikers refusing to send .
