ROOTED 4 WOMAN.
Mrs. Pickering, Manager of Meeting of
 Women Viewers at New Bedford.

women " eaVeFs at NeW beuIOFus
 New Bedford, Mass, Jan. 2S-The much talked of meeting of~the women weavers in Dawson hall this afternoon lasted just five minutes, when the man. ager, Mrs Harrie Pickering, retired from the platform in disgust. She was
 hooted off the stage by very large gathering of men and women, who evil
 dently were not in sympathy with her
 plan. Mrs. Pickering held a consulta-
 tion with a few female sympathizers,
 who believed they had the right to the
 hall despite the fact that it had been
 loaned to the weavers' executive com@
 mttee and it was decided to seek the
 assistance of the police to eject the men who were in possession, but no officer could be found willing to assume such authority and Mrs. Pickering was left out in the cold, while the regular meet ing called for all weavers went quietly on. President William Cuname called the meeting to order and outlined the collections for general contributions. Touching the fines question: he said a great deal had been printed concerning the removal of that subject from the strike as an issue but the fine question wuld remain an issue in the strike until the weavers in mass meeting assembled decided otherwise.

Criticisms by London Papers-"vague and
 Non- n-CommfttaI" Says One.
 London, Jah 29.-The morning papers comment upon President Mckinley s speech at the banquet of the National Association of Manufacturers Thursday evening. characterizing it as impress sive and sounding, but vague and non- commital' and as giving little hope of a bold stand against the silverites."
 The Morning Post says: The speech was evidently intended to mark the line of battle in the coming congressional election. Everyone interested in Amer ican property will rejoice if the repub- licans frankly adopt the policy sug- gested."

CAUSING EMBARRASSMENT.
Failure of Congress to Act Promptly on
 the Postal Deficiency

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The failure of congress to act promptly on the recom- mendation of Postmaster General Gary for an appropriation of s163, ,OO0 to meet the threatened decrease in the letter carriers for the remainder of the fiscal year is causing considerable ambarrass- ment to postal officials. It was the original intention of the department to make the reductions in the number of deliveries in the large cities of the east on the first of February, but the ap- parent unanimity of congressman in fa- vor of immediate action on MT. Gary's recommendation made it hesitate about taking such action, as 1t was thought likely that a special appropriation would be secured for the service, and now that this has not been granted of ficials are undecided what course to pursue.

 to Death.
 Wilton, Jan. 2S.-Mrs. Charles Scrtib- Ter, aged eigthy-seven, was burned to death at her home in Cannon, station a few miles above Wilton, tonight, by her clothes taking fire from sparks from a pipe she was smoking. The woman made her home with her son, William Henry Scribner, war veteran. After supper the son started to go to the store and left his mother in the sitting room, indulging in a smoke, as was her custom. Some time later Rich ard Abbott was passing the house and noticed one of the rooms ablaze He hastened in to inform the people. but found no one until he reached the kitchen, where he found Mrs. Scribner lying in a corner and plainly burned to death. It is surmised that when the woman discovered her clothes afire she started for the kitchen, where there was water. The chair she was sitting in was on fire and flames had communi- cated to other articles of furniture in the room. The pipe was found near the chair. Medical Examiner Gorham was notified and will make an investigation.
