DULL HOLIDAYS.
New Bedford MIL Operatives Vote to
Strike.

New Bedford, Mass. December s. This
city will have another strike OF consider
able magnitude on Its hands beginning
Monday.
A big mass meeting Of weavers OF the
Acushnet and Hathaway mills was held
this afternoon at the South end or the
city, and about 400 weavers We're pres
emit. 1t was voted to strike. At the out
set four persons wsom 1t was claimed
were present for the pu-poss OF spying
upon the actions of the weayers, were
excluded from the meeting, A circular
issued by Treasurer Knowles to the weav-
ers of the two mills today was first dis
cussed. The majority Of the weavers
claim that the statement In this circu-
lar, referring to stoppage pay, has not
been lived up to. This fact Is what made
the weavers vote as they did.
Come OF the women weavers claim that
since the loom hxers' strike, they have
had their looms stopped for TWO days at
a time and have bean paid only for an
hour or two. The mills have tried to
hire men to take the place Of the strik-
ers but only with partial success.
Secretary Timothy Murphy OF the loom
fixers' union, was introduced and ad-
dressed the operatives, promising the
no--union weavers In case they votsd TO
strike, one half OF the collections taken
for the striking loom hxers would be
divided among them.
The union weavers had voted to strike
earlier In the week. The result OF the
non -unionist vote was practically In
favor OF not going to work on Monday.
The N eeting then dissolved. Thers was
no cheering and many sober faces were
noticed.
Eoth the weavers' union and the loom
Ixers' union are well of financially and
both will receive aid from the national
unions with which they are affiliated.
The south End business men heard
the decision to strike with regret as 1t
will mean a hard winter for them, with
the weavers aud fxsrs on strike, It will
not be long before the mills Will hays o
close down and this Will mean over 1900
idle operatives in that section or the city.
This morning Secretaries Murphy and
Hart we're summoned before Chief OF Po-
lice and osutionsd about allowing
crowds to gather in the strests. Both
assured the chief that they would do all
in their power to prevent such gather
ings.

FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. l.-William
Goebel was, shortly before 8 O'Clock,
sworn in us governor Of Kentucky, and
J. @. w. Beclzham a few minutes later
took tile oath Of lieutenant governor.
The oath was administered to both men
by Chief Justice Hazelrigg Of the court
of appeals.
The plan to make Goehel governor
was set in motion early in the afternoon.
A statement was prepared saying the
bo.,rtls which had heard tho contests for
governor aud lieutenant governor had
decided in favor Of Goehel and Beck
ham s,,ld that the boards intended to Re-
port their finding to the legislature, but
that they had been prevented from SO
doing by the action Of Governor Taylor
in declaring the legislature adjourned.
1t was declared the belief of all the
signers of the statement that Goebel
and Beckham were the legally elected
governor and lieutenant governor and
each man as he signed the paper an
nounccd that he voted for the adoption
of the majority report Of the contest
board which declared Goebel and Beck
ham to be the men
Rightfully Entitled to tho Office.
As soon as the last man actually needed
had affixed his signature to the state
ment word was sent to the residence Of
Chief Justice Hazelrigg Of the court of
appeals He came at once to the Cap
itol hotel, passed directly upstairs to the
room of Mr.. Goebel and administered
the .sstd pf Office. Mn. Gioebel was
propped up with pillows and was able ts
raise his hand only with the greatest
difficulty as he listtaaesl to the words Of
Jndge Hazelrigg. = -.
Mr.. Goebel, as soon as he was assured
that he was legally governor of Ken
1,lrky, took prompt action regarding the
military arm of the service. Two orders
were quickly prepared for his signature,
the first OF which discharged Adjutaut
General Daniel Collier from office and
appointed General John d. Cast]elnalI
OF Louisville as his successor. The sec.
ond was directed to thc commanders Of
the militia now statibnod in this city
directing them to return to their homes.
It is not certain that Fhcy will at once
obey the orders isSucd ly Governor
Goebel and any attempt to force then
to do SO will almost certainly result in
trouble z
