THE PRINT CLOTH MARKET.
EFFORTS BEING MADE TO SECURE A REDUCTION
OF WAGES IN THE MILLS

Fall River Mass, Aug. 10 (SpeciaD-LoeaI brok-
ers report that the sales in the print cloth market
during the week estimated 75 600 pieces odds
The demand for goods has not increased during the
week. Regulars do not figure in the sales and
quotations on narrow goods do not represent mar
ket value. The nominal price for print cloth is
213 cents, with odd goods figured on this basis At
the present time buyers staying out of the
ket, awaiting developments in the situation in this
city The abolition of the selling committee had
been expected by the trade for so long time that
the effect the market was not so depressing as
some had been predicting.
The agents Of the fine goods mills are being
worked upon by those who have the wage reduction
feeling to induce them TO join the movement Only
one argument Is being used with these treasurers.
and that is that something must be done once
10 assist the mills manufacturing narrow goods.
and this does not appeal strongly, il reports are
true to the business Judgment of the agents the
fine goods mills. who have in some spent
years of labor and large of money in building
up profitable trade in the specialties which they
manufacture. Agents who in this position are
displaying considerable independence asking simply
be let alone and to be allowed to run their
business as they deem is 10 their best advantage.
being perfectly willing that others should do the
same. II is believed, however. that at the meeting
or Monday cut down of Is per cent, to go into
effect September 3. will be voted. The unions
declare that such a movement is unCalled for. and
will order strike il the reduction Is attempted
This condition of affairs IS bound TO affect the
ket. which is now firm and steady at 25sc.

THE ST. LOUIS AND THE UMBRIA HAVE A
LIVELY BRUSH LASTING FOUR DAYS

The steamers st. Louis. of the American Line
and the Umbria, of the Cunard Steamship Com
pany, had a lively four days brush on their last
trip across the ocean, which ended here yester
day. The American liner came in ahead. Both
vessels left England upon the same day.
We first sighted the St. Louis between 6 and
Z o'clock on Wednesday morning" said pas
senger on the Umbria yesterday. She seemed
to be about seven miles away our port bow
and about two miles to the south. The vessels
maintained the same relative distance until noon
when the St Louis pulled away By night we
had gained two miles. We sighted her again at
$50 O'Clock on Thursday morning; she was still
about five miles in the lead, but dead ahead
In the afternoon the St. Louis drew away slight
ly to the north, disappearing about O'Clock in
the evening. We saw nothing of her until 9
o'clock this morning, when she lay seven miles
away. straight ahead. The same distance sepa-
rated at the arrival of the st. Louis at Sandy
Hook, and l venture to say that the stokers of
both liners had a pretty busy time of it,.
Another passenger the Umbria said: Il do

NINE WORKERS TO AID.
EXECUTIVE BOARD OFFICIALLY IN
DORSES THE STRIKE AND
PLEDGES SUPPORT.

Indianapolis. Aug 10-The executive board
NJ the United Mine Workers Of America, in
session here. has officially recognized the steel
strike
A resolution was adopted reviewing the causes
NJ the strike indorsing the action of the Anal
gamated Association. pledging the support of
the Mine Workers, and calling on President
Ciompers to call a meeting of the presidents and
secretaries of all the bodies connected with the
American Federation of Labor to meet and de-
wise plans for aiding the strikers. Copies were
sent TO President Shaffer and President Com
peFs
This action. following the statement of Presi-
dent Gompers in which he promises to aid the
strikers is regarded significant it is the
first movement toward uniting all the organiza
tions connected with the Federation IN support
ing the steel strikers. 1t is also taken in
dication that the officials of the Mine Workers
the most powerful organization in the Fedora
tion-thfnk the struggle between the steel cor
poration and its men may eventually involve
the entire Federation, and for that reason they
are anxious for a conference where a plan may
be outlined.
1t is not within the power of President Com
pers TO pledge financial assistance to steel strik-
ers without having first obtained the authority
OF his council. II is expected that Mr.. Gompers
viii at once issue call for a meeting of presi-
dents and secretaries of the organizations con-
nected with the Federation. The meeting will
probably be held in Pittsburg.
