THE PLUMBERS STRIKE.
Non-Union Men Come to Work But
Do Not Stay.

Non-Union Plumbers who came to this
city to work are treated very courteously
but when once the case is stated plainly,
they nearly all agree not to work for the
master plumbers who pay the old rates OF
wages aud will not sign the agreement
entered into last week.
This was the case with the ten men who
came here from New York this week, OF
whom seven have left the city. The state
ment that the strike was settled had a
bad effect In more than one way, but
especially in leading many workmen TO
believe that there could be no objection to
their coming to Providence to work at
present.
Several master plumbers of Providence
and Pawtucket have signed the agree
ment within the past week, and IL the
attempts to get non-union men do not
succeed the chances are that more will
follow soon.

ley have gone to New York to confer with

Former partners in business were COM
plainant aud respondent respectively in a
suit In equity argued before the full
bench of the Supreme Court this morn

Court to enjoin his former partner from
doing business In Rhode Island.
The parties In the case are Charles n.
Richardson and John A. Weston.
In 1888 they formed co-partnership
known as the Combination Ladder Com
pany for the manufacture and sale of lad
ders, chairs, step-ladders, etc. In the fol-
Weston's share Of the business for 81, 200,
the agreement being, as the complainant
claims, that Weston was not to enter into
the business of manufacturing ladders
within radius Of fifty miles of Provi-
dence.
Since that time Richardson alleges,
Weston has not kept his agreement, but
has been selling ladders in the territory
which he promised to vacate when the
partnership was dissolved
The respondent admits having sold lad
ders within fifty miles of Providence since
the dissolution of the partnership, but
claims that he was working for another
firm when he did it.
The complainant asks the Supreme
Court to injoin Weston from carrying on
business within so miles of Providence,
in other words, compel him to keep this
agreement.

serious, II not fatal, injuries. He bled

A Rumor of Complications in the Case OF
Oficsr Mcguire.
The rumor was current on the streets
to-day that the investigation of the
charges against Officer Mcguire by the
board of aldermen at the last meeting
was likely to be complicated by legal
discrepancy.
The official was ordered re-instated,
and was to pay a fine of S25. Alderman
Burrows gave notice that he would move
to reconsider the motion at the next
meeting.
According to the rules of the board the
notice of a motion to reconsider must be
made in writing in case any objection is
raised and the difficulty was hinged on
the supposed idea that the notice was not
written.
Honorable City Clerk Clarke states de-
finitely that it was written and the ru-
NOR is thus :proved false and without
foundation.
