A Short-Liyed Strike.

A strike of short duration occurred in the
cooper shop of Roberts, Roop d Co.: at the
Carroll FIGURING Mills, this city, on Monday.
The strike was the result OF reduction IN the
price of making barrels, which was not really
a reduction. The men, fourteen in number,
had been getting nine cents apiece for max
ing barrels, and they earned from nine to
fourteen dollars week. according to the time
they put in and their expertness IN barrel
making The proprietors furnish them with
hoop poles, and they split and shap them.
Hoop poles cannot now be gotten. so the pro.
prietors, rather than shut down, purchased
shaved hoop stuff to keep the men at work
until the poles could be obtained. The shaved
hoops cost about double the price of hoop
poles. and the men ought to make more bar
rels a week with them. The foreman was IN
structed to inform the men that the price per
barrel, as long as the shaved hoops were used,
would be eight cents. Some OF the men
claimed they were not informed of the reduc-
ton, and when they were paid of last Saturday
night there were some mutterings OF discon-
tent. On Monday morning the men went TO
the shop as usual, but did not go to work.
When Mr.. Roberts arrived from his home at
Mediord, the men sent u representative to see
him. Mr. Roberts went over to the shop aud
explained matters to the men. He told them
they always had good material to work up, a
wel.equipped and comfortable shop, and
ware paid regularly every Saturday night, at
wages equal 10 the wages paid anywhere; that
il was impossible to get hoop poles at present
and that the firm had supplied shaved poles,
at "A very considerable advance III price, in
order to keep them at work, and that at the
reduced price of one cent a barrel tor the
making the barrels cost the firm two cents
each more than formerly. After this expia-
