r0E Two SIDES ARRAYED.
The Master Spinner's Fight In Lanca-
shire.

London. Feb 24-Notwithstauding the eX-
pressed resolution of the masters and men in
the Lancashire cotton spinning industry, SO
far as represented by the Masters Federation
on one side and the Amalgamated Association
of Cotton Spiuners on the other TO resist any
change from the base assured at the begin
ming of the struggle, there was a break at Old
ham to-day, where one quarter of a million
spindles resumed operation with reduction
of two and oue-half per cent In wages, or just
one-half of the amount on which the Masters
Federation insisted, The distress IN Oldham
on account OF the strike, the masters call
it, or refusal To accept the reduction, as OPP
eratives call it, has been most acute. Besides,
in Oldham the artisans of the town are largely
shareholders in the cotton mills. These work
ing class shareholders are composed of the
artisan class outside of the cotton spinning
concerns themselves, ahd a peculiar spectacle
has been presented of two classes of operatives
one acting as employers and the ether as
employed. The former are represented In
the Masters Federation and have been trying
to starve the others out. or rather have allowed
| others to choose between idleness and the ac
| ceptance of the five per cent reduction. The
| partial resumption OF work o-day is regarded
| as . concession on the part OF the employer:
| that the policy of stui bon adherence TO tn,
| FIVE per cent reduction is not successful, ant
| the operatives having borne without yieldini
! the rigors of winter would be sill better ab
| to resist il in the spfiug.

Postal Telegraph and Commercial Cable

ly wounded. The ssssilsn. then shot
himself in the brest, and reported dying
in the hospital. Mscksy's wound is not
thought to be dangerous. The s,sassins
name is vsriously stated as Messrs.
Rstcliffe, Lynch & Dunn. The latest
version is that it is Damn. All accounts
agree that he is old. close TO seventy
years.
Mr.. Mscksy took his new situstion
with characteristic GOODNESS, and quietly
announced to the crowd that assembled
at the sound Of the shooting that he was
shot and awaited the coming Of doctor.
The bullet was extracted. Mscksy
knows nothing about his ssssllsnt, and
did not recognize him.
GEO A. N. BULLKTIN)-The name OF
the man who attempted to kill John
Mackay is w. p. Rippy. He was un'
doubtedly inssnce. He had in his pockei
letter addressed to the morning paper
in which the writer stated that he wa
seventy three years OF age. 1t wal
signed W. c. Rippy. There was also
upon him an envelope bearing the name
of Dr. L. L. Lincoln. On the back o
the envelope were the words: "The enc

were the words: paid $3.50, 900 70

Gate City National bank, was appre-
hended to day at the house of a man
named Oaks on Rockwell street in the
suburbs of the city. He had been be
trayed to the police by the daughter of
Oaks The arrest of Redwine has added
fuel to the fra of excitement
He will not tell how he affected his mys.
terious disappearance, but does say he
has not been away from the city at any
time He denies absolutely having taken
any money with him and laughs at the
idea of his being defaulter in any large
sum- He says if anything like seventy
thousand dollars has disappeared some
",oGy else got it. He, with two other
| men, went to Oaks house last night about
/ midnight. They knew they could rent
rooms there. Somebody about the place
rt tcognized Redwine and this morning the
daughter gave policeman tip as to his
presence there. Policeman Wimblish
watched his chance, opened door of room,
gu ckly jumped in and covered Red
with pistol The young man submitted
quietly to his arrest. He was unarmed
and only few dollars were found on his
person At police headquarters bank
officials and legal representatives Of the
depositors endeavored to extract con.
fession from Red wine, but he would not
talk. He simply reiterated his state

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The anti
options bill met with set back, the
house determining by vote of yeas las,
nays "a, to resume coLsideration OF the
Indian appropriation bill.
The paragraph appropriating S55S, 900
for arrears of interest claimed by the
Chickasaw Indians was stricken from
the bill.
A few moments before the hour of 5
o'clock, Hatch, who was presiding over
the committee of the whole, left the
chair, and addressing his successor, said
that for three Legislative days the Indian
bill had been under consideration. There
was not, he continued, an intelligent
member of the house who did not abso
lu.ely know that at this hour of the ses-
sion the appropriation bill was being
used as means of obstructing
the consideration of the anti options
bill, and that the opponents of
latter, the friends of the denomination of
silver and the friends of the senate rider
to an appropriation bill were in an abso
lutte agreement and conspiracy er1 10
| gentle man from this time until II O'clock
| to morrow week could shield himself
under any sort of subterfuge unless he
was willing to 60 on record not only as
opposed to the anti option bill but as the
| opponent of silver and friend Of the
three per cent. amendment. The house
was brought face to face with this issue
and he gave notice that he would con
tinue this struggle in the interest of the
people as against the interest of Lombard
street and Wall street until the peoples
rights were preserved.
Mr.. Coombs called the gentleman to
order. The gentleman was impugning
he motives of the members of the house,
thing that he had no right to do. Mr.
Hatch replied that he was impugning nc
ones motives, he was merely stating the
parliamentary statutes. The motives Of
the gentlemen rested IN their own breasts
and they could explain those motives Il
their constituents. The committee theI
rose. Mr.. Holman again asked tina
there be formal non concurrence In tn
senate amendments to the sundry civi
appropriation bill with exception of tn
5 Sherman amendment. Mr.. Bland-if i
be understood that one legislative da
be given to the discussion of that amend
5 ment. I have no objection. Mr.. Hatch-
