Offset by the remaining out OF a numb ber
OF those who went in yesterday who were
visited at their homes by the executive
committee last evening and persuaded to
remain out today.
The strikers are apparently very much
exercised over the fact that the-ag
ment of the manufacturers has been de-
parted from. They do not appear to
realize the fact that the manufacturers
might see fit to modify any agreements
they may have made without consulting
the executive committee of the strikers.
AT l O'Clock this afternoon Mayor Olney,
accompanied by Chief OF Police Childs,
drove out to Olneyville and was in the
vicinity OF the Atlantic Mills at the close

made their way through the crowd OF ex-

sidewalk, but were not allowed to stand
still. There was no disturbance.
1t Is the purpose OF the strikers 10 keep
the workers Of one or more departments
in each mill out, and thus handicap the
running of the several plants at anywhere
near their full capacity, and the leaders
and agitstors are making frantic efforts
to carry out this scheme. Yesterday the
loom fixers OF the Wey bosset Mill refused
to go to work, but changed their minds
this forenoon and went in with the rest
at / o'clock.
One half OF the Riverside mill is in
operation today. The Manton force of
operatives has increased by a small num-

however, is still very limited. The num-
