No 5. Hartford Avenue.


The strikers who were lettering on
Mantos avenue Just before 1 o'clock this
afternoon, and there were score OF
groups of them, received an object les
son In the stream OF mill
hands which poured into the Atlantic
and Riverside mills, calculated to make
some sort OF an impression. The coun-
tenances Of most of the idlers expressed
regret rather than anger, as The NEWS
man sized them up.
At the Wey bosset Mills everything re-
meins in statu quo. IL was stated, In the
absence OF Manager w. Il. Weeden, that
no new Developments have occurred, nor
are any ediately expected.
The wOrsted mill Is running all right
and the managers are satisfied the 400
strikers will return in good season.
The Manton Mills trouble is unchanged,
the managers still insisting upon leasing
TO the com bine and the strikers beginning
TO look elsewhere for work.
The storekeepers do not seem to feel the
effects of the strikes yet. One
of the most prominet said to-
day: "The public exhausted its
sympathy with strikes and strikers the
last time, and now we do not look for an
extended SIEGE"
The police report all quiet and say 1t is
really hard TO lind q striker in the square
and but few OF them visit the bar-rooms
at night, compared with the great strike.
In Communication from the city COM
mittee on annexation 10 the town COM
mittee request is made TO have vote
by the town at once before further steps
on the question OF annexation are taken.
This proposition is not favorably received
by he Johnston committee as II would
be test vote without anything binding,
and 10 IL thought the people would not
care to vote on SO blind proposition as
this would be.
rhis would necessitate two votes first to
divide, second TO ratify an act. II John
ston votes at all on the question IL will
probably be final vote on the adoption
or rejection OF an enabling act for annexa-
tion. .--t...t-......
