That Wave OF Prosperity.

BosToN, November 14.-L. G.
Clinse & Co. of 129 Washington
street, the largest manufacturers of
horse goods in New England, have
announced cut in the wages of
their employees. The members of
the firm are prominent Republicans
and belong to the Home Market
Club. During the campaign pla-
cards promising more work and in
creased wages if Mckinley was elect
ed were prominently posted in the
workrooms, while the management
threatened complete shutdown in
case Bryan should win. The con-
templated reduction was proposed
last week and led to partial strike
on Monday, which is still on.
PHILADELPHIA, November 13.--
