the city, today, and the atmosphere is
laden with it. The pleasure of the
manufacturers over the outcome Of the
conference seems only second to that

prospect of sliding scale The de-
sire on both sides for it's adoption seems
genuine. With the healthy sentiment
prevailing. 1t Is believed it will be
brought around earlya and satisfactorily.
This rise in wages will affect the full
30 900 operatives in the 81 mills in this
city. in spite of the fact that seven
corporations are not connected with
the Manufacturers Association.
Every reason exists to be that the
mills will put back the old wage sched-
ule simultaneously with the SO corpora

Manufacturers Association. 1t means
