The TEXTILE STRIKE.
About 10000 Cotton Mill Operatives In
Fall River are Idle.

Fall River, Mass, July 26.-The
strike order issued by the Fall River
textile council calling for upward of
10000 operatives to remain away from
the mills in protest against reduc-
ton of 1871 per cent. in wages, be-
came effective Monday and the re-
sponse was as general as the labor
leaders had predicted. In the 81 mills
involved in the agreement to reduce
wages ii is estimated that not more
than 800 entered all the gates and be-
fore O'Clock practically every mill
involved in the trouble had shut down.
During the forenoon it was found
that the Narragansett mills had spin
ners enough to warrant starting that
department. With this exception and
that of the Bourne mills, all others
were shut down.
Later the strikers gathered in force
at both these mills and induced SO
many of the operatives of the Bourne
mills to come out that the factory had
to close down for the afternoon, The
operatives at the Narragansett mill,
however, refused to leave the yard.
Central Falls, r. l., July 2G.-Five
hundred and fifty operatives struck
yesterday at the mills of the United
States Cotton Co. against 1219 per
cent. decrease in wages, and the mills
were shut down.

SEIZURES ORDERED STOPPED.

st. Petersburg, July 25.-Grand
Duke Alexis presided at Saturdays
council which Count Lamsdorff, the
foreign secretary. and Vice Admiral
Avellan, chief of the admiralty de
partment, and other high naval of
ficers attended.
The result of the conference re-
moves all doubts concerning the pres
ent attitude of Russia with regard to
the volunteer fleet. The validity of
the view expressed in the British note
regarding the irregularity of the seiz-
ure of the vessels was so far admitted
that the council agreed to waive the
right of search.
After a long discussion in which
Count Lamsdorff took leading part
1t was decided that the present status
of the volunteer feet was not suffici-
emily we'll defined according to inter
national law to render further
searches and seizures advisable and
that therefore Russia, in the interests
of friendly relations with the powers,
should withdraw the authority given
the volunteer fleet in this respect.
The reported appearance of Japa-
nese cruisers and transports off Yin
Kow, coupled with foreign kilograms
telling of heavy fighting in that re-
gion, bear out the intimation conveyed
in a mutilated dispatch from Tatche-
kiao that serious movements have
been undertaken by the Japanese to
gain the coveted base on the north
west coast.

at the blue ribbon meeting of the De-

ord was placed at 2:06A by Morning
Star in this heat, and this mark was
equalled by Baron Grattan in the sec

SYMPATHETIC STRIKE ORDER.
WAS oBEYED BY ALLIED TRADES
AT CHICAGO STOCK YARDS.
Strikers Number 10000 - Engineers
and Transfers Alone Remained
at Work-Long and Bitter
Fight Expected.

Chicago, July 2G.--With all peace
negotiations broken off and with all
the allied trades unions employed at
the different plants, with the excep-
tion of the teamsterS and the station
airy engineers, out on strike in sym
pathy with the butcher workmen who
quit work two weeks ago, the stock
yards strike last night had settled
down to what promises to be a long,
bitter fight.
AS has been threatened for some
time, the allied trades employed in
the packing industry at Chicago quit
work when called on yesterday to as
sist the striking butchers in their eff
forts to bring the packers to terms. In
several instances the men did not wait
for the official notification from their
leaders to strike, but threw down their
tools and quit work of their own voli-
tion.
At G o'clock last night the state
ment was made by Michael j. Don
nelly, president of the Butchers union,
that every union man employed at the
stock yards, with the exception of the
teamsters and stationary engineers,
had responded to orders for a general
sympathetic strike. The engineers, he
declared, would join the strikers to-
day and unless there was a speedy
settlement of the difficulty the team
sters would undoubtedly join in the
struggle soon. According to Mr.. Don
nelly, yesterdays strike swelled the
number of men who have quit work at
the stock yards in Chicago alone to
nearly 10000 persons.
According to the packers, the gen.
eral strike was a failure, it being as
serted by them that not more than
half the members of the allied trades
quit work when called out by the lead
ers. The further statement was made
by the packers that should all the
union men decide to join the strikers
it would make little difference to the
employers, as they had sufficient re-
sources to contest the ground for an
indefinite period.
On the other hand, the labor leaders
assert that all the union employees at
the different packing plants, together
with several hundred employees of the
Union Stock Yards and Transit Co.,
quit work in response to the general
order for a sympathetic strike.
A new phase of the strike situation
developed late in the afternoon when
notice was given by the unions to the
independent packers at the stock
yards that their men would not be al
lowed to handle animals which had
been handled in any way by non union
men. 1t is necessary for these indie
pendent concerns to take all of their
live stock into the yards over Union
stock yards runways, where the stock
must be handled by non-union men,
since the union men employed by the
Stock Yards Co. in this line of work
were among the employees who joined
the sympathetic strike.
The ultimatum of the unions leaves
the Independent packers no alterna-
tive but to receive their live stock di-
rectly from the country or to close
business entirely. A meeting of the
independent packers was held last
night to map out some plan Of action,
but no definite conclusion was reached.
