Saco, Me-, March 19.--It is generally
believed among the striking operatives
of the York corporation that the mill

them TO return To work If they desire.
1t Is not thought that many strikers Will

pressed the determination not 10 go

some concessions.

that IL would be impossible for him TO
make any promises at present, owing 10
the condition of the cotton market, but
IL the market improves he would give
them an increase. Business men are
making an effort TO end the strike, but
the operatives do not appear To appre-
ciate their efforts in this direction.
A meeting of operatives was held this
afternoon TO talk over the situation and
vote on returning TO work IL the gates
open Monday. AS the agent has made
q statement TO the effect that York oper-
atives received as high wages as in any

ter. boss stone cutter, employed at
DIR. Solomon's sanitarium. was nur-
dered by fellow workman named Mat

rigan buried an axe in the back of Cot

Although Cotter's brain was penetrated
to the depth of two inches he lived
nearly two hours The men had trouble
over Mrs. Cotter.
Some days ago Cotter took exceptions
to statement by Horrigan, and after
that they were not on friendly terms.
Friday Cotter went To Pawtucket and
returned about o'clock, Horrigan
drank considerable during the day, and
was in bad humor.
At o'clock Ctter and his wife went
TO the boarding house where Horrigan
lived to get supper. They ate and were
about to leave when Horrigan disap-
peared. He returned in a few minutes
and. as he approached the sitting room
where Cotter was standing, he seized
an axe that was in the entry. Mrs.
Cotter saw the action and shouted to her
husband. Look out Jack" The
warning came too late. With a swing
Horrigan drove the blade of the axe into
the back of Cotter's head. He then at
tempted to hit Mrs. Cotter. The weapon
came within an inch of her face. Be

Deacon Wool Wants to Amend
Cross Bill Against Wife.
Claims She Was Air ady Married when
She Became HIS Spouse.

The attorneys for Deacon and Town
Clerk Mark II. Wood sprung surprise
on the attorneys for Mrs. Virginia Wood
in the APPELLATE Court this morning. Mr..
and Mrs. Wood are prominent residents
Of Darlington, and the latter began d.

Attorneys Irving Cbamplin and Frank

Mr.. Page said that the cross pstition

OVERTIME AND Filming.

Boston, March 19.-In arguing before
the committee on labor Friday for favor
able action on his bill to prevent over
time in cotton factories. Representative
Ross of New Bedford urged the injustice
OF the system of keeping operatives who
are paid by the week in n factory dur
ing a breakdown and obliging them TO
make up the time lost without extra
compensation. He believed operatives
should be permitted to leave their work
rooms when machinery was stopped for
any cause whatever. and that If re-
qulred to remain in their workrooms
their wages should go on just as If the
machinery was in operation. Milton
Reed for the manufacturers in remon-
STRANGE con,ended that the bill would do
nothing but intensity the feeling between
the operatives and their employers. He
said there was very little overtime
worked, and quoted from the report OF
the labor bureau in substantiation OF his
claim.
Harriet Pickering OF New Bedford,
In support of the bill to abolish fning
and grading, denounced the fining sys-
TEN as fraud and downright robbery.
She wanted the legislature to protect
Vic tidss ol peopie from Delng rODDeQ
by another. The witness read from a
printed list. showing that the fining i'm
the mills in New Bedford aggregated
from $1,000 to $500 per week, or from
$4,000 to $4,000 per year. This, she
claimed. was deliberately pilfered from
the employers. She averred that the
mills were grossly mismanaged, and on
this account the mill help suffered. Mrs.
Pickering believed that the passage of
the bill would be a good thing for all
concerned. Mr. Reed made long argu-
ment in opposition to the measure. He
didn't want the statute books of this
state to reflect the anger or passion of
the operatives of New Bedford. He said
the impression tried to be made on the
committee that the operatives were inn
posed upon was a reflection on the char
acter OF the New England operative.
There was no class of working people
more alert and shrewd to defend their
positions. Mr.. Reed did not believe any
employer would take the risk OF impos-
ing an unjust fine. He thought public
opinion was too strong to permit, with
out severe condemnation, any violation
Of the present law. There was law
enough TO cover the case. and he saw no
reason TO put additional law upon our
already overloaded statute books
