This mornings work of G. V. Moore,
who is guiding the machinists strike in
this city. brought forth no new phases
and the situation remains practically the
same as reported in The News last night.
Mr.. Moore visited the Providence En-
gineering company's plant this morning
and conferred with MIR. Rice and Mr..
Fuller. lie was received pleasantly and
afforded every courtesy
Messrs. Rice and Fuller evinced a desire
to hear the mems side or the story and.
although. as they stated. they were i'm no
position To accede 10 any demands. they
would listen 10 anything that was within
the bounds of reason and report to the
corporation.
A COMMITTEE APPOINTED.
A committee OF Ave was also appointed
one man from each floor representing the
union and one representing the employers.
This was a fair and wise thing to do, as
IL brings the men and their employers
into closer touch and will enable both
sides, IL is hoped. TO come to speedy
agreement.
None but the best of feeling Is exhibited
on either side, and while some of the men
are OF the opinion that the trouble will
assume greater proportions, the general
view is that the difficulty will soon be
Strengthened out and the work now at a
standstill in the two shops will be taken
UP.
NO VISIT TO coRLIss WORKS.
The Corliss people have not oeen- -Eis-
tied by Mr.. Moore as yet and consequently
their views on this question. have not
been obtained. George w. and A. III.
Hoadley persistently refuse 20 be inter
viewed and their opinions are therefore
not obtainable.

specified reasons, which arc as follows
First. the dangerous proximity to he

pills; second. the necessity of more school

ments, some windows being but 20 inches
wide and facing the pupils: fourth. the
unsightly appearance OF the building on
such a location; fifth. the expensive heat
