Operatives Are Indignant at
EvasiOns of the Law.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Aug. 21.-The
mills of this city are completely tied up
today, even those which were running
yesterday being closed. The Rowland
corporations have not yet resumed, but
undoubtedly will within few days as
an agreement has been reached by the
corporations. The spinners' executive
committee is today devoting its efforts
to getting the Bennett and Columbia
mills which make the same line of goods
as the three Rowland corporations into
line and from statements made privately
by the officials Of these mills, there is
some reason to believe that the effort
will be successful
The outcome of the strike now depends
upon the cloth mills. Some of
the treasurers are disposed to fight
it out If it takes all winter and assert
agreement has been reached whereby
the mills are 10 be indefinitely locked
up, but on the other hand, individual
treasurers are quoted as saying that they
look for an outlet to get out of trouble
and will be glad to find it quickly.
The Bristol mill, which was prosecut-
ed in the courts recently for running on
Saturday afternoons, Is SO loaded with
orders that d gentleman very close to the
management, said it could not think of
shutting down for any length of time.
1t may be, however. that even if the
manufacturers finally concede the wage
question the strike will not end very
soon.
The operatives are indignant at the
evasions of the law recently passed and
at a mass meeting at the South park to-
day, they voted to make thls-a an issue of
the strike and not TO return to work 1atil
the particulars provided by law are
furnished.
The spinners committee say it.doesn't
regard the Rowland concession as a vic
tory and expresses the belief that it does
not by any means end the strike.
Fall River Mills Shut Down.
FALL RIVER, VI ass, Aug. 21.--Four
more mills shut down today on account
of The strike. and there is a decrease Of
fully 1 800 in the mills not running.
