able Wan to Speak 10 Potters.
Considerable excitement and furore

at the Warwick and Wheeling potter
les. when IL became known that certain
designing Republicans attempting to
bring Mr.. Fred Walker. of Trenton, y.
J.. here tonight 10 make a speech I'M
der the auspices of the union.
The trouble which has been stirred
up by this attempt Is due 70 the fact
that considerable feeling prevails here
among the local pottery men against
the aforesaid gentleman owing 10 the
unpopular attitude he has occupied in
opposition to the interests of union
men. Members of the union Of this
city claim that Walker is foreman Of
the sanitary syndicate at Trenton. and
has taken every opportunity OF oppres-
sing union workmen.
He IS charged with keeping the scale
Of wages down as low as possible and
establishing rules compelling men who
lose their jobs in any Of the shops 20
come 20 him before they get employ
,neny IN another SnOp. lie 5 generahy
considered by the workmen here as a

Iii said that he also ac,ed IN opposi-
ton 70 the potterymen's interest when
he appeared before the Ways and
Means Committee two years ago while
the tariff schedule Of the Wilson bill
was being arranged.
From investigation Of the facts in the
cause It seems that he was brough, here
by the county Republican Executive
Committee, and they through lhe!r

is a pottery man. have endeavCred "a
