SANITARY WARE PoTTERs.


TRENTON. ". J., Oct. livery sanitary
ware pottery in this city, with one or two
exceptions. was closed down to-day owing
TO a disagreement between the employees and
manufacturers. The manufacturers last
week posted notices stating that the en-
ployes would be held responsible for de-
fective ware UP TO the time IL came from
the gloss kilns. and expressing an inten-
ton of hiring apprentices under the regu-
lar scale. The men demurreo. holding that
ware taken from the gloss kilns had PASSED
through too many hands 10 make II Just TO
NDld the pressers responsible FOX any de-
fects. The men also oppose the hiring of
apprentIces. alleging that there are enough
skilled presSers to meet the demands. They
claim hat the desire to hire apprentices
is part of a plan to get skilled men TO
work under price under the suise OF APP
prentIces. The men continued to work un-
der protest until to-day. when the manu-
facturers were formally asked TO modify
their notice. They refused and the men
quit work pending a decision by the national
organization as to whether they should
stand ont against the manufacturers The
latter held a meeting this afternoon AMI
decided not to recede from their position.
Representatives of the employees from the
different sanitary potteries In the country
met here tonight mad discussed the ques-
ton. They decided TO submit the dispute
