 Cotton Mill Operatives Get Advance
 of 10 Per Cent-American Woolen
 Co Gives Notice To It's Patrons,
 Boston, April With the appear ance of the morning papers in this city to-day an important move on the part of the ma s.el brewers of Boston in connection with the strike of the brewery workers which began last week was disclosed. On the first page of each paper was conspicuous ad- vertisement for men to work i'll tine breweries affected by the strike, set ting forth the wages to be paid in diff ferent positions The advertisement employees will receive first consdera- tion
 Boston, April "A general advance of about ten per cent in wages of the cotton mill operatives in the southern half of New England went into effect to-day in practically every mill town in the territory named, with the ex- ception of Fall River, where the in- crease was given last month. About 5O,O0O employees began to earn higher wages this morning and added to some 27,O00 in Fall River. more than 75,000 hands or nearly half the entire number in New England have already shared the present change in pay schedules.
 The manufacturers of Maine, New Hampshire and northern Massachu- setts have not posted notices. As a result many of the employees are dis satisfied. The managers of mill in- terests in northern sections maintain that conditions governing the industry there are not the same as those in southern New England and that an ad- vance is not warranted at this time. On the other hand the union officials assert that a reduction in Fall River, New Bedford and Rhode Island would have been followed by similar action elsewhere.
 HToFlueuce, R. l., Apr1I 1.-The American Woolen company has sent out notisN to it's patrons regarding the delay in filling orders caused by the strike of it's weavers. The notice is as follows:
 As you are probably aware, the weayers of all our mills making fancy worsteds (with the exception of the D. T. & Y.) are now on strike. The recent additions to the list of mills af- fected have so upset our calculations that our estimates of the delivery of sample pieces are entirely disarranged While your orders may be we'll along to the process of weaving you will ap- preciate that under the present condi- tions we can with ...A certainty agree to finish and deliver them. We must therefore inform you of an indefinite delay, which is entirely beyond ou1 control"
 It is understood that the notice was drawn up before the weavers at Web ster and Moosup went out.
