passed unanimously and the original bill
was indefinitely postponed.
The House then adjourned and the
members took carriages for the Rhode
Island Institution for the Deaf.
Hearing ON Kingston College Matter.
The Senate committee on finance gave
hearing this morning on the
resolution appropriating $4,000
for erecting additional buildings for
the Rhode Island College OF Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts. There were present
as representatives OF the board of mana
gers Ex-Governor Bull, Gardiner Z. Sims,
Senator Coggeshall, also President WASH
burn and Professor Flagg.
The plans OF the proposed Improvement
were but specifically alluded to by the
various speakers. No details were pre-
sented, nor any designs with speciflca-
tions and estimates laid before the COM
mittee. President Washburn, however,
adorned the windows OF the Senate library
with photographs on glass OF the ruins.
Mr.. Gardiner &. Sims, member of the
board, said the request for $4,000 was
approved by the board OF managers. The
and it was the intention of the
board to use the foundation and such
portion of the outer wall as
Is not cracked. The fourth story would
not be rebuilt. They also propose to go
beyond this and build for chapel, labora-
tory and drill hall. The funds from the
United States Government cannot be
used for used for the purpose of erecting
new buildings.
President Washburn gave a brief review
OF the history of the institution. The
original building, he said, was designed
for a much smaller school. 1t seemed to
him almost wicked TO put his $4,000
worth OF government apparatus
in building used as a
dormitory. That is why the Board felt
that there should be an additional build
ing. The expense of proper water sup
ply, he said, was contemplated In the APP
preparation. In short the appropriation
was for the purpose of rebuilding the
dormitory, erectinoa new structure 130
40 it., and putting in an adequate water
supply.
Professor Flagg indorsed the appeal of
the previous speakers and laid special
stress on the need OF the drnl building In
order to make the instruction effective,
for which the Government had been
good enough to assign promin-
ent war officer. This would have
been necessary had the fire not occurred,
and an appropriation of half the present
amount would have been asked for, in any
event.
The committee then announced that it
would give another hearing and visit
Kingston tomorrow.

Forty Operatives Go Out at
the Geneva Mills Today.
They Refuse to Run Two Looms on
Fancy Work,
And Assert That IL Is Impossible to Do
Ii and Make Living Wages.

The Geneva Worsted Mill weavers,
40 in number, went out on strike at
o'clock this morning. For some time
there has been considers BILE dissatisfaction
among the weavers over running
two looms on white work,
but they submitted TO 1t rather than go
out on strike in the middle of winter.
Matters reached a climax yesterday
morning, when the fancy colorsd warps
were put into two looms, and one
weaver told TO run them. He did so, and
during yesterday made only go cents.
When the weavers learned that two more
fancy warps were TO be put in
this morning they decided to call a
meeting and last night they voted to
strike against the loom system as fancy
work and appointed a committee OF
two to wait on the superintende
This morning before o'clock,
the committee explained their grievances
to the superintendent, but was told that
he could not do anything for them, but
would like them to try the new
work, and would pay them q
half cent extra for the fancy work. The
weavers said they could not run two
looms on fancy work and make living
wages.
Mr.. Fyfe, the superintendent, said he
could not do anything further. Then the
weavers went out.
One woman stayed at her looms and re-
fused to 60 out with the rest of them, but
Mr.. Fyfe told her he could not run the
weave room with only one loom in opera
tion.
In an interview superintendent
Eyfe fhfa ,anrnfnn al
representative that the weavers were
making s12 to s14 per week, and why
they should strike he was unable 10
explain. He said they had
no orders for light work and were
obliged to put dark work into the looms.
He was willing to pay as good wages as
any other mill in the country, and showed
the price list, which is similar to that OF
the Wanskuck and Rivefside Mills.
In an interview with three OF the
weavers they said: We have not struck
against reduction of wages. 1t is mat
ter OF principle. We will not run two
looms on fancy work. There is not mill
in the country where the weavers are
asked to run two looms on dark work. In
the Wanskuck Mill the weavers only run
one loom on black work and the little
oeneNu Mill IL not gong 10 DC tue Hrst
one TO start it.
At o'clock this morning the weavers
met at Literary Hall, Veazie street, and
discussed the course they had taken, and
by unanimous vote decided
to remain out until their de-
mands were complied with. The
agreement entered into some time ago,
when they were first asked to run two
looms, between committe of the
weavers and Mr.. Uhlman, the owner
of the mills, was brought up. At that
time the understanding was that II they
would run two looms, only the best of
white work would be put on them. This
promise has not been kept, according to
the weavers.
Another meeting will be held tomorrow
morning at 8 O'Clock In Literary Hall.
