THE TEXTILE STRIKERS.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Aug. % 1894.
The great strike of the textile opera
tives has developed into period of dog
ged and determined activity on both sides
and there are no new developments of
interest. Today the feeling is that the
other yarn mills of the city are not like
ly to follow the lead of the Rowland
corporations so soon as was predicted
yesterday. Whatever their decision may
be there is likely to be continuation of
the strike on the part of the cloth manu-
facturers far beyond the time set by
many at the beginning of the trouple. All
of the arrangements made by the op-
eratives and their employers are in an
ticipation of long battle.

situation in FAN River.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug o. 1884,
The Executive Committee of the Spin
ners' Association met again last night to
consider the trade situation. 1t was re-
ported that the Kerr thread mill had
made satisfactory terms with the spin
ners employed, but the members declin-
ed to say just what they were. 1t is
believed that the Kerr will continue pay
ing the old wages until the mixed con-
dition of things in other concerns is clear
ed up.
: A delegation of spinners form the San
ford Spinning Company was present to
protest against allowing any reduction
of wages in the mill. The members said
they would strike rather than work for
lower wages than they are now receiy-
ing. The Globe Yarn Mill Spinners were
also present and were very much work
ed up on account of the alleged break
ing of faith with them on the part of
Agent Arnold B. Sanford, also Presi-
dent of the Sanford Spinning Company.
The spinners believe the mills can well
afford to pay the old wages, on account
of the prosperous condition of the yarn
business as compared in activity with
the cloth markets. The Executive Com
mittee voted to send Acting Secretary
ODonnell to the mill to interview the
agent, and there is every likelihood of a
strike unless concessions are made The
conditions at the Hargraves. Granite
and Shove Mills are unchanged. The
action of the weavers in remaining away
from work is causing a great deal of an
noyance to the spinners' officers, mas
much as the locked out spinners will
have claim on the treasury just the
same as though they were on strike.

several days ago and explained the
strange silence which Shortt has main
tanned for months. His friends in this
city will be shocked to hear that he has
been dead for six months and living in
a vat at medical college, according to
the report which reached this city sew

years of age. He was a Virginian by
birth, but spent the greater part OF his
life in Lebanon. KY, where everyone
knew him. After leaving school he

Short finally concluded to leave
Louisville and try his fortunes in the
south. He told few of his friends
that he was going to Americus Ga.
and for several months they received
letters from him regularly. Suddenly
these letters ceased. His continued
silence caused one of his friends to
write to Americas. when it was learned
that Shortt had been stricken with pa
ralysis. After being stricken with pa
ralysis he WAS sent to the Henry w.

gered there several months, and died
on July last. IL seems that no one
knew him, and the body, being I'M

since been lying in a vat. How it came
to be identified is not exactly known,
but it is said to have been noticed by
someone connected with the college
when it was taken out of the vat.
