New England Mill Notes.

The following statement Is explanatory as-
serts G. &. ROun-syillc. secretary OF the Cot
ton Manufacturers Association In criticism
Of my statement that wages Of mule splnners
have been advanced since 1885 from 81 TO ~
per cent, Secretary Howard Is reported to
have said The comparison ia unjust, as the
wages Of 1885 were very low, and that 'the
comparison with the wages OF $50 would
make u very different showing. The wages
OF 1850. which he admits We're less than those
paid today, were warranted 10y the most pros

The Parkhill Manufacturing Company Of
Fitchhurg Mas, whose mills employ 100
hands, and have been running three days for
three weeks past, have shut down entirely
for two weeks. While all are glad II is no
worse, the shut down causes gloomy feel-
ing.
Several OF the Executive Committees Of the
New Bedford dlabor unions held meetings 10 act
on the cut down that will 90 into effect the
10th. inst. The labor people will not make
their acton known to the public until after
general meetings have been held, which will
be in the course OF the present week. There
l. apparently no change in the feelings OF the
organizations to oppose the reduction by a
strike If necessary.
The announcement has been made that
when the Cocheco Mills Of Dover, n. II. start
up "A cut-down OF 10 per cent IN wages will be
made in all the departments.
The PembertOu Cotton Mills, OF Lawrence,
Mass which have been closed for three weeks

The German Emperor frequently has
a weeks retirement from the bustling
world, and hides within the depths of
the forest of Prockelwitz, where a
small cottage is his abode, nestled be-
meath a splendid oak, with forest around
him for miles. There, while the dew
is on the forest, he starts forth, gun in
hand, with brace of dogs and sturdy
forester, and at o'clock he is at the
best spot for sport. Then his majesty
bangs away till II, when he wends
his way homeward to his cot, eats and
sleeps awhile, after which he puts his
signature to all the documents which
require it, and have been duly for
warded to his lonely retreat from
Berlin.
