The Few England Mills Wage Cutting.

New Bedford, January 1.-Secretary
Ross has called a meeting Of the execu-
tive committee of the spinners union for
tonight at which arrangements for a
general meeting OF the union will be held,
when the question OF striking will be
acted upon.
In case of a strike. the local union pro-
posed to make New Bedford the battle
ground for all New England. They con-
tend that no textile enter OF the north
has so little occasion for a cut down az
New Bedfird. The mills. they say. are
crowded with profitable orGers, and cam
not afford to shut down
