Members of the Association Pleased at
the Present Outlook.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Nov. 10.-A general
meeting OF the Mule Spinners' Associa-
tion was held last night, in answer to a
circular calling for q discussion on the
wage question. The attendance was very
large. The financial report OF the treas
urer was received with loud cheers. At
ter the transaction OF routine business, II
was moved to make demand for an in
crease OF 10 per cent in wages.
An amendment wat made that the asso-
ciation accept the voluntary advance OF
per cent recently granted by the manu-
facturers. Another amendment was made
that the matter be postponed until one
week from next Monday night. A long
discussion ensued, and the last amend
ment was eventually adopted. The asso-
citation Is pretty evenly divided regarding
the wisdom of enforcing larger increase
at once.
The officers and several OF the better
known members rather admire the spirit
which prompted the manufacturers TO
grant the last advance, before formal
request for one was made on them, and IL
was in consequence of their advice that
the discussion was tabled until the next
special meeting.

DIR. Briggs Case Called Again-Ten Days
to Prepare Defense.
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.-The New York
presbytery, in compliance with the order
OF the last general assembly, began yes
terday second trial OF Prof. G. A. Briggs
of Union Theological seminary, on the
charge OF heresy. The trial attracted a
large crowd to the Scotch Presbyterian
church.
The duty OF this session of the presby-
terry as outlined by the general assembly,
is % To pass upon the sufficiency OF the
charges against DR.. Briggs. (2) To allow
an amendment OF the charges II the
furtherance OF justice requires IL. (3) To
try the case as quickly as possible. The
charges referred to have already been pre-
pared.
The session of the presbytery was
opened with prayer by the moderator.
The roll-call showed that only about
two-thirds of the ministers and elders
composing the presbytery, were present.
Many absentees sent letters explaining
their non-appearance.
After the reading of the charges, DR.
Briggs spoke. Owing to the large num-
ber OF charges that had been made by the
committee he said that he would require
ten days, allowed by the church law, for
preparation of his defense. An adjourn
ment was then taken until Nov. 2S.

400 Men Affected by Street Railway
Strike at Columbus, O.
COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 10.-The motor and
horse cars on every liue in the city except
those on the West Broad street have been
tied up. The cause OF the strike was the
discharge of conductor who declined to
receive a mutilated dime from passen-
ger. The rules of the company make the
conductors stand good for mutilated
coins The passenger claimed to have re-
ceived the coin from another conductor,
and reported this conductor. He was dis
charged.
An investigation was demanded, and
the management had about concluded
that the conductor was not TO blame, and
would probably have reinstated him. The
union demanded that he be reinstated by
three o'clock in the afternoon the day
previous, but the investigation not being
completed the management declined to
accede TO the request. The action of the
men was a surprise TO the company
About 400 men are affected by the strike.
