MILL WAGES ARE CUT.
About 32,ooo Operatives of Cotton
 Mills Will Be Affected.

Boston, Mass, November 11.-About 3D. GOO operatives in cotton mills in this state were notified today of ten per cent reduction In wages and If 1t is followed by the step which is usually taken when the mill owners of Rhode Island ana Connecticut take similar action, s0,O00 men will be out of employment. The notice of the reduction was posted in all the cotton mills of Fall River, where 30,0OO operatives ara employed and also at Taunton, where 2000 workers are affected. The reduction in Fall River goes into effect November 2S. and that at Taunton five days earlier.
 The cut is attributed to the unsettled state of the trade. resulting from the high price of raw material and to a pronounced hesitation to buy on the part of the usual purchasers. The action taken in Fall Riv- CT Is of widespread importance since a step of this nature in this city Is usually fol- lowed by mill owners in southern and cen tral Massachusetts, Rhode Island and eastern Connecticut. where a total of about 5000 men are employed. It Is thought that no general strike will be dered here at this time by the textile workers union, which Is arranging to con sider the situation.

ALABAMA SYNOD ACTS.
Matter of Consolidation of the Two
 Universities Taken Up.

Union Spring, November n.-Among the matters considered by the Presbyterian synod today was the matter of consoli- dation of the Southwestern Presbyterian university at Clarksville and Columbia Theological seminary. The consensus of opinion seems to be that the consolda- tion had been made and that the liberal proposition of Atlanta be accepted.
 Overtures were received from Presby- teries of North Alabama and Mobile looking to this end. The committee on bills and overtures have the matter in hand and will report later.
 A resolution was adopted by unani- nous vote that the synod of Alabama overtures the general assembly to clothe a committee with power to receive and consider any proposition from a Presby- terian body looking to closer relations. This action was taken after a resolution had been introduced overturing the gen. eral assembly to clothe a committee with power to confer with the Dutch church looking toward a closer reunion.

 Beavers counsel asked for a writ of habeas corpus and a writ of certiorari but Judge Lacombe in denying the motion went over the grounds upon which the writs are asked and said that none of them was sufficient to justify him in over ruling the decision of Judge Holland and United States Commissioner Hitchcock.

Judge How ard denied the application on grounds of public policy. The appellate division affirms without opinion.

PROTESTS AGAINST
 APOSTLE SHOOT
SOME ACCUSE HIM OF BEING A POLYGAMlST, WHILE OTHERS MERELY SAY HE IS A MEMBER OF THE MORMON CHURCH.

Several hundred petitions protesting against Reed smoot retaining his seat AS junior senator from Utah, were filed in the senate today. Most of these were offered by Senator Burrows, chairman of the elections committee, though nearly every state registered objections through petitions filed by their senators. Churches, religious organizations of all kinds, uni- versailles. colleges and other educational institutions were among the organizations which have filed protests.
 Some of these petitions allege that Sen ator Shoot has practiced polygamy while others rest their objections on the charge tbat he is q member of an organization which countenances the practice of plural marriage. Senator Burrows said today no action will be taken by the elections oom,nittee until the one vacancy on the comittee had ben filed. and that it is not likely inc charges will be considered before the last week of the special session. or the first week of the regular session.

WANTS A coADJUToR.
Bishop Bean Finds the Work Too Hard
 for Him.

Alabny, N. r., November 11.-Bshop William C. Bean today addressing the Protestant Episcopal diocese of Albany, practically requested the appointment of a coadiutor. Owing to his health he wishes to be relieved of some of the work. In the course of his address the bishop dis eussed the form of worship of the church. He did not think the colerod vestments and Incense while perhaps they could not be forbidden were to the manner born with an Englishman or an American of today. Continuing. he said:
 The one plainly prohibited intrusion into our church which as a bishop I can not tolerate or allow Is the reservation of one of the consecrated elements of the holy eucharist. It has no proper place either on the altar with the sanctuary lamp burning before it.. or in that most objectionable function called the benedic- tion of the blessed sacrament"

ROOSEVELT TO GREET
 VARILLA ON FRIDAY
COTTON MILL MEN
 ARE VERY UNEASY
REPORTS FROM MILL cENTERS INDICATE THAT REDUCTION AT FALL RIVER WILL HAVE EFFECT ON THE OTHER FACTORIES.

Boston, November 11.-Reports from the centers of the cotton mill industry throughout New England indicate that to- days announcement at Fall River that ten per cent reduction in wages had been decided on by the cotton manufacturers there to go into e-.ect on November 23. had caused general uneasiness, due to the belief that an equal reduction at other places is inevitable. 1t is conceded that this will be the case in Rhode Island and Eastern Connecticut, and 1t is thought other cities in Eastern Massachusetts may follow the example set by Fall River though their cases are somewhat dissim- liar In Taunton. the Corr Manufacturing company has already announced ten per cent reduction and while the mill men at New Bedford, Lowell and Lawrence are reticent concerningq their plans, they ad- init that the condition of the cotton mar ket is all against the manufacturer. This is believed to be equivalent to saying that a wage reduction Is to be seriously consid- cred. The situation in Maine and New Hampshire will hardly be affected. Maine did not share In the wage advance of two years ago and so has a negative advan- tage now. Representatives of the labor unions in Fall River and other cities do not appear to anticipate any concerted action on the part of the unions in opposi- ton to the new schedule.
 The present scale went into effect on March 13 1902.
 The price for weaving regular goods to- day is 21.7S cents per cut and ten per cent reduction would make the new price 196 cents.
 It was learned the reduction was de- cided upon at a conference of Fall River men in Boston November ?. About so mills. owned by forty corporations, are represented in the organization. Most of the local mills make print cloths and coarser grades, although a few of them are engaged in the manufacture of fine goods The mills of Fall River, New Bed ford, Rhode Island and those at numerous points in central and western Massachu- sets, together with mills in eastern Con- necticut, made a general advance in wages early In 1902. The cotton mills of northern New England did not increase their scale and it Is not considered probable that the present change in southern New England will affect the industry further north.

New York, November 11.-Before he sailed for Europe today on the Majestic, William ]. Bryan was asked by an in terviewer:

Birmingham, Eng, November 1l-There was no fulhllment of the serious trouble expected at the meeting addressed to- night by Lord Hugh Cecil and Winston Churchill M P, in opposition to the fiscal programme of Joseph Chamberlain. It Is estimated that the crowds sur rounding the town hall during the pro- gress of the meeting numbered 40Oo0 persons A few stones wefe thrown and some windows broken. but it Is believed that the prevention of more serious dis orders was due to the earnest appeal of the supporters of MT Chamberlain, sup plemented by the advice of the local news papers to give the free fooders'' a fair hearing, as we'll as to the excellent po- lice arrangements. The meeting was at- tended by 5000 persons.
