MILL AT APPLETON
RESUMES OPERATIONS.
Wisconsin Tissue Company Has Enough
Help to Start Machine-To Run
Day and Night.

Appleton, Wis, June 2O.-[SpeciaL1
The Wisconsin Tissue mills are the first
to open in this city, after a two weeks
shutdown on account Of the strike of
paper makers. Manager Joseph Thomas
said this morning that they had sufficient
non-'lnlon men to run a large machine
day and night, and that it was expected
that the other machines would be in
operation in a day or two.
1t is reported that the strikers have
threatened to lay for one of the machine
tenders, and they may deal with him Sc
yerely. 1t has been the custom Of the
Brotherhood of Papermakers in this city
during any strike to avoid all disturb
ances, in this way gaining the respect
Of the citizens. However, it is believed
they viii violate this custom tonight
At Neenah Saturday night one Of the
non-uniOn men employed at the Badger
mills of the Kimberly & Clark company,
was attacked and roughly handled, and
it is reported that he is in a serious con-
dition.
The Howard Paper company of Me-
nasha has given up the matter of resum-
ing as failure Last Thursday they
made the first attempt, but the help re-
fused to come in. This morning they
started to construct a ten-foot fence
around the plant and will board up the
windows and the plant will be shut down
indefinitely.

cial. 1.-The contract for the construction
of the new post Office at Bara boo, bids
for which were opened a few days ago

600.
The supervising architect is now en-.
gagged in modifying the original plans
and specifications, in order that a bid
may be secured within the amount OF
money on hand. The three lowest of the
original bidders will be requested to fig.
ure upon the modified plan, and doubtless

limit. The notifications Of the original
plan consisting in the eliminating OF
some Of the. fancy or gingerbread work
