hrmstiveiy on Strike Question.
A dispatch from New Bedford
Mass, says: A strike in the clotl
mills can only be averted by with
drawing the notices Of q 10 per cen
reduction posted in the mills Decem
Der 3lst.
The spinners at a meeting Monday
night took final action on the question
OF striking. The result was in favor
OF resistance 20 the reduction, the
vote being 39S to4.
The attempts at arbitration have
thus far resulted in the decision Of the
state board of arbitration to visit New
Bedford.
The weavers OF the Wanskuck wors.
ted mills at Providence, Il. l., have
also rejected the compromise offered
and voted 10 strike.
They had demanded the restoration
of the 1892 schedule as already put in
effect at the mills at Olneyville, and
the abolition OF the double loom sys.
tenn. The compromise offer was to pay
a yard extra on all work in which over
ten harnesses are used The demand
for the general raise and for the aboli.
ton OF the double loom system was
refused.
On February LIST, l., 140 looms in the
printing departing nj OF the Manches.
ter cotton mills at Manchester, n. H.,
will be stopped for an indefinite time.
The cause assigned is the falling OFF in
the demand for print goods. There
will also be reduction of about 10
per cent in wages affecting about 80
per cent of the employees.
At large and enthusiastic meeting
Of Lewiston (Me. mule spinners Mon.
day night the strike situation was
discussed. The sentiment was strongly
in favor OF resisting the cut down, but
it is likely the funds will be devoted
to the New Bedford strike.
The public reception given by Gov.
ernor Bushnell at night was a quiet
affair. A platform, handsomely dec.
Grated, had been placed in the rotunda
OF the capitol and here the governor,
assisted by Mrs. Bushnell and sur.
rounded by the members OF his staff,
received, first, the reception commit
tee, tho members Of the legislature,
state officials and their ladies'; then
the public was admitted and about
9 900 people passed through and were
greeted by the governor and his wife.
The employees of the Lonsdale
Company, at Pawtucket, r. l., aside
from the mule spinners. were notified
of q reduction in wages. The
cut was in nearly every case a surprise.
Weavers Of the Ashton mills were
told instead of 36I per cut they here
after get only 70 cents, In the ring
spinning departments and the card
rooms the reduction will he 10 per
cent. No strike is anticipated in the
mills Of the Lonsdale Company.

After the ballot the senate and

cast for senator.
When the two houses adjourned
there was q general stampede for the
Neil house to congratulate Senator
Hanna on the result Of the balloting
in the two houses. The feeling for
him became intensely strong during
the day because OF the charges Of
bribery that had been made by his
enemies against some OF his friends.
As many believed that the charges had
been sprung for effect on the eve OF
the balloting, there were many who
said the charges did Hanna more good
than harm.
Hardly had the result of the ballot.

shouting crowd filed tho lobby and

and in answer to their demands made
a speech, congyatulating them on be-
half of the republican party for the
suspicious outcome.

A striking feature of modern scienc

A striking feature Of modern science,
notes tho Trenton IN. j. American, is
the rapidity with which the possibili.
ties offered by any new discovery are
followed up. The Roentgen rays have
been known but year and half, yet
they have taken q permanent place in
the hospitals OF the world, vast inn
provements have been made in appar-
atus for producing them. and it is i'm
possible to say that they will not soon
become q necessity Of our daily life.
In England Roentgen Society has
been formed, with Professor S. P.
Thompson as President. Some of the
members will study the sources of the
rays, others the applications, some the
induction coils, others tho tubes and
other apparatus. These systematic
efforts can hardly fail to result in a
speedy increase OF tho efficiency and
applications Of this epoch. making dis.
