THE PICKET.
Marlboro Strikers Said to
Spot Every New Conner.

Marlboro, Jan. 10.-The strikers
seem just as determined in their posi-
ton to remain away from the factories
as they did when the strike first
started. The same thing can be said
OF the manufacturers, so that the
chances OF settlement seem obscure
indeed. The number of people work
ing in the shops cannot be given ac-
curately.
The strikers say the number is less
that last week, and in few days a
further diminution will be shown
working under a free shop system. In
some factories number of green hands
are employed.
A striker tonight told a Spy report
er that woman who has not worked
in factory for 20 years, is one of the
new stitchers that are working in
free shop. This he said is only a sam
pie of what the manufacturers are do
ing to make showing. The manufac-

the help that they need, with number
of applications on file.
Today several wagon loads of ma
chinery left the Getting avenue factory
for the Stark factory at Worcester.
At the police station tonight four men
are locked up on the charge of drunk
enneSS. Iney are SAID TO be Out-Of-
town lasters and are reported to have
come here for the purpose Of working
in one Of the free shops. Before MAX
ing application for jobs. they INDUCED
in promiscuous libations, and before
long were in the meshes of the law
The picket system or the strikers
now seems to be in perfect working
order. Not only is a strict watch
kept on the factories but every strang-
err is almost sure to be spotted when
he arrives in the city. The labor peo-
pie say they have the name and adj
dress of every man, woman and child
working In the free shops of Marlboro.
1t is expected that legislative COM
mittee will visit this city and inquire
into the causes and other matter relat-
ing to the strike. Tonight it was re-
ported here that such Dill was in
troduced into the lower branch of the
legislature, by Representative James
F. Carey of Haverhill.
A mass meeting of the shoe workers
will be held in the theatre this week.
A dance for the benefit of the strikers

MAKE A TEST OF STUART'S DYs-
PEPSIA TABLETS.

No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia.
People having it think their nerves are to
blame and are surprised that they are not
cured by nerve medicines. The real seat
of the mischief is lost sight Of. The stom-
ach is the organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not in the stomach so much
as in nearly every organ. In some cases
the heart palpitates and is irregular: in
others the kidneys are affected; in others
the bowels are constipated, with head
aches; still others are troubled with loss

With reference to the warehouse which
the National Association of Manufacture
ers is to establish in Shanghai, China,
following statement:
"For more than six months past the
National Association of Manufacturers
has been making preparations for the es-
tablishment in Shanghai of large ware
house for the display and sale Of goods
made by members of the association and
we have advanced 50 far with our plane
that we shall probably be able to open
the warehouse for business about the first
of the year.
"The warehouse will contain two de-
partments, one for the display of goods
and the other for making sales. The
financial arrangements, which have been
made in the United States and in China,
will permit the transaction Of all business
upon cash basis and any goods that may
be sold through the warehouse will be paid
for at the time of shipment from the Unit
ed States The storage and display section
will not undertake any business transac.
tions but the business department will
be conducted under the supervision and
control of the association and provision
will be afforded for the accommodation Of
its members and the promotion of its
members interests.
81 regard this as the most important
step that has ever been taken in China
with view of the extension of American
trade in that country. 1t will be entirely
on American institution from beginning
to end. This warehouse will be the sec.
ond in series Of such establishments
which the association has undertaken
The first was opened in Caracas, Vene
zuela, year and half ago, and plans
for others to follow the one in Shanghai
are now under consideration"
