Iaw location. The Minneapolis Bust.

with him. aud has made his company an

efforts to secure the plant. MIR. Weber

inclined towards, but he declined to ex-
press au opinion. He stated frankly

THEY WILL STRIKE.
The Mill Owners Decline to Arbi-
grate,

Yesterday the board of trade commit
tee on conclliation, arbitration and civil
service, upon request of the strikers,
met in the board OF trade rooms for the
purpose of effectlng some sort of har-
nony between the striking packers and
nailers and their former employees,
Washburn, Crosby q Co. John Blanch-
ard was the only member Of the CON-
mittee absent. The representatives of
the men were j. F. McNally, Charles
Ring, j. Demining and A. Ruane. Sew
eral short speeches were made. in which
arbitration was strongly agitated. Later
a committee consisting of 5. Nj. Owen,
Rev. S. w. Sample and Il. +. Nelson
called on Messrs. Bell. John Washburn
and Martin, of the Washburn Crosby
company, which resulted in their get
ing very little satisfaction.
The company said they were well
satisfied with the new men, and saw no
reason for conference. They didn't
care to recognize the men as body.
ANA it was therefore useless on the part
of representatives of the strikers to
offer to arbitrate. 1t is generally
thought that the strike is at All end, and
liat The strikers will not be taken back
as body.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
Plans of Both Houses on Assembling Next
 Wednesday.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.--Tn accordance with its resolution of adjournment, con gress will reconyene on Wednesday of the present week. It is not probable that the senate will really get down to close busi- ness application during the week, and some of the most experienced observers of the course of the senate under circumstances similar to those which will surround that body when it shall reconvene predict that there will not be a quorum during any part of the present week, and that, there fore, no important business will be under taken until Monday, the Sth. Several sena- tors will be absent in attendance upon Senator Faulkner's wedding, and many will not return from their homes or from other places to which they have gone for the holidays until the first of next week.
 The programme in the house for the coming week has not been definitely ar ranged, but it is probable that the tariff and Hawaiian questions will both figure. The tariff debate will begin as soon as the house reconvenes on Wednesday. The Democratic members of the ways and means committee have not yet decided upon the limit which will be set upon the debate, but the Democratic leaders seem to believe that it ought not to run more than two weeks-four days for general debate and the 10 days for debate under the five minute rule Whether MT. Wilson, who Is to open the debate, can speak on Wednes- day will depend on whether the Republic ans insist upon the full reading of the bill before the debate begins.

 Il WO well knOMu COutIdCtOIS, OAe residing on Bank street, and the other on South Leonard street engaged in lively discussion on Bank street this morning on the subject, which was the dullest year, 1873 or the one which has just come to a close. The South Leonard street man held that, all things considered. the year 1873 was much harder on poor people than the past one and argued that much of the dis tress of to-day is due to the expensive manner of living which custom has forced upon the people during the past few years. Said he: ''The people who lived and were ] happy too, in modest dwellings, in the times I speak of, would not think of living in the same kind of tenements to-day. They live up to the last cent of their earn ! ings, and consequently have nothing ahead for the rainy day" His opponent was of the opinion that the past years was by far the duller in this town at least anC was prepared to prove that he had more work and better wages in 1873, than ht has had during the year 1893. Both mer were in business through the years they talked of and yet each held very differen opinions as to the effect of the times or the working people of Waterbury.
