General Reduction in Wages at Fall
River Mills.

Fall River, Mass, Nov 12.-No
tices were posted during the day in
the cotton mills Of this city announc
ing a general reduction of 10 per cent
in wages to take effect Nov 23 About
80, 900 operatives are affected
The cut is attributed to the un
settled state of the color goods trade
resulting from the high price of raw
material and to a pronounced hesita
tion to buy on the part of usual pur-
chasers.
The action taken in Fall River is OF
widespread importance since a step
of this nature in this city usually is
followed by mill owners in Southern
and Central Massachusetts, Rhode ISL
and and Eastern Connecticut, where
total of about $4,000 men are en-
ployed.
1t is thought that no general strike
will be ordered here at this time by
the Textile Workers union, who will
consider the situation.
