The POTTERS.

A Boycott Placed on the steubenvllle Pot
tery-Trusts and Automatic Machinery
The most important action taken by the
Potters' Convention was the placing Of a
general boycott on the Steubenville Pot
terry and its products. This is q result q
the strike inaugurated last February, when
its employees quit work because the man
agement would not accede to their de-
mands and make the pottery a union fac
tory. President Donaldson told the
Conference Committee appointed by the
Convention that he proposed to run his
own business. Following this the boycott
wss placed and the union has in course Of
preparation a circular to trades unions and
the crOckery trade asking their hearty CO.
operation in making the boycott effective.
It was decided to continue the Union
headquarters at Trenton, but the Exec
utive Board at East Liverpool will be
clothed with fuller powers in regard to the
settlement OF local matters.
The question Of labor saving machinery
was also discussed at length, and the union
decided that the time had not yet arrived
when skilled labor could be replaced by
automatic machinery.
Regarding trusts, the convention passed
a resolution cOndemning them in strong
terms as opposed to the interests of capt.
tai, individual enterprise and the con-
sumner.
Reports were received concerning the
state of trade, the msi Drity Of which show
ed that the present condition was very
much depressed, bat the prospects for the
future were regarded as unusually hatter-
ing.
The Convention adjourned LAST night
after pledgiug support to the Steubsnville

the first week of September Of next year.
