ONLY THREE wEAvERs WORK
BUSINESS MEN ANXIOUS.

New Bedford, Mass, Jan. 24.--The
second week of the big cotton mills strike
here began today with both sides appar-
emily as firmly determined to hold o1t 40
at the Inauguration of the contest. No
attempt was made to open the gates OF the
big corporations this morning. the mnnu-
faeturers having evidently decided TO keep
the mills closed for few weeks at lesst,
in the belief that such a course will
eventually cause a large number of the
strikers to weaken. The union officials
say that the mill owners might just as
well keen the gates closed as few Of the
operatives would 20 back, should an
attempt be made 10 resume operations
under the reduced scale which caused the
present trouble.
The New Bedford business men appear
to be more anxious regarding the future
than either mill owners or operatives. and
many small dealers fear that II tho strike
is protracted beyond the last of the present
month, they will be obliged To close their
stores or run their business at loss.
Quite number of the weavers and
other employees have left the citv, many
French Canadians having returned To
Quebec. and IA small percentage having
decided to seek employ meDt In other mil
centre. All concerned In the local situa-
tion are greatly interested lin the proposed
investigation of the condition here by the
labor committee of the Legislature.

close of last week. The entire plant Is
shut down. with the exception or the No.
a mill, which IL wholly made M of weav-
ing. In the other three mills those who
are not out on strike are forced out by
tho strike. The Weavers' Union will

slider the situation from the standpoint
of the weavers, who have asked permis-
son to strike for tie restoration Of the old
schedule.
While the operatives appear to fear no
permanent results from the substitution
Of frames for mules and claim that tho
substitution in such mills rs have already
made this change has been failure.
the fact remains that the finest of yarns
are being spun on frames and the
product IL equally as good for the weav-
ing Of cloth as is the mule or cop yarn.
In the King Philip mill, ITSELF the
most successful results have been obtained
and the passing of the mule Is surety.

PASSING OF THE GONDOLlER.

Venetian penny steamers have
brought the gondoliers lamost to a
hand -to-mouth existence. Life is cheap
i'm Venice. and the Italian is. as a rule,
contented with what supports IL. He
does not clamor much for comforts or
for luxuries. The lazy gondola life
suits him to perfection. He bought his
gondola i'm the good old days paying a
thousand To fifteen hundred francs for
il. with all its equipment, it's brass fit-
tings. its graceful steel prov, those
leather cushions and that hearse-like
black roof that converted the central
seat into a cabin Those were the days
when there were no steam launches to
take you for ten centesimi from one
end of the Grand Canal to the other.
Still, the outlay was made. the stock
in trade was supplied, IL was only TO
carry on with il, and living in Venice
was cheap and the Venetian scale of
comfort not exalted. There were more
gondoliers i'm the thoroughfares OF Ven
ice than Venice needed, as there are
more cabmen in the London streets
than London can now find employment
for. The Venetian gondoliers lived, on
the strangers; and this year has been
n poor season. and the dearth OF Amer
leans notable. They were their best GUS
toners and they missed them sorely,
and little guessed that the Cuban war
was the real cause.-London News.
