OPERATIVES REJECT OFFER
Advance in Wages and Profit Sharing
Plan Fail to Suit Cotton Mill
Employees
By Associated Press.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Oct. 22.-The
Fall River Textile council representing
the organized cotton mill operatives of
the city, today decided to reject the
offer made by the manufacturers as
sociation last week to advance wages
per cent and introduce a profit-shar-
ing plan. The council made a request
for the restoration Of the IL 1-2 per
cent which went into effect July 25,
1904 No trouble in the mills is antici-
pated and it is probable that further
negotiations will be conducted during
the coming week.
The Textile council held a special ses-
sion of two hours and a half duration,
and, according to Secretary Thomas
Taylor, the sentiment was unanimous
that the council should insist upon a
straight advance of slightly over IA per
cent. The secretary was instructed to
notify the association to that effect.
The committee had heard no inten-
ton to change the policy adopted, and
as far as members of the committee
were aware there had been no break,
and would be none, in the ranks of the
manufacturers.
The great majority of the cotton mills
in northern New England, Rhode ISL
and, eastern Connecticut and in Other
Massachusetts, towns will not be di-
rectly affected by the movement here.
Tomorrow's advance in this city will
affect about 10000 operatives.
Work will be resumed by all the Fall
River mills in the morning, and if any
trouble comes it is not looked for until
after Wednesday next.

rescuers could spring overheard. They
worked for an hour with a boat and
graphing irons and finally the body
was brought to the surface. Policeman

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-"Ker-chu!
ker-chu! ker-chu!"
Hundreds of persons gazing at the
second story window of a tenement
house at 3OS West Sixty-ninth street,
known as the Block of All Nations,
from which smoke was pouring last
evening, heard strange sounds from
scores of throats in the building.
Down the fire escapes in the front
hurried men and women, some with
children in their arms. All were sneez-
ing with full lung power. From the
falsetto of the Italian infant in arms
to the deep, resonant snort of the fat
German, who stuck fast in one Of the
openings, none escaped the sneezing.
1t came in all languages.
While the fire created intense alarm
for several minutes in this, one of the
most crowded city blocks, the spectacle
of the "ker-chu" brigade afforded so
much merriment that the crowd hugged
the police lines and yelled encourage
ment.
The sneezing rose in volume as the
smoke increased and the stream of
figures on the fire escape thickened.
The firemen connected with engine

two rooms occupied by an Italian
family. Lieut.. Ford, who led several
men with fire extinguishers, was one
of the first to reach the windows. He
sneezed until he was red in the face.
Every member of the company finally
got to the windows and the "ker-chus'
took on brogue.
Meanwhile in the street the crowd
had a hilarious time until a gust OF
wind swept the smoke to the pave
ments 1t enveloped several hundred
persons. Then came a unanimous
sneeze. The crowd broke, each anc
every one "ker-chuing" with might an6

WHEAT SCARCE IN MEXICO
MiIers Look for Removal of Duty on
American and Canadian
Product
BY Associated Press.

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 22.-The short
ness of the wheat crop is greater than
was estimated a few weeks ago, and
miIlers are looking for the entire re-
moval of the duty on American and
Canadian wheat by the first of next
year. The city bakers have reduced the
size of their loaves, asserting that it
is impossible to give the same weight
as formerly. There are some stocks of
wheat in the hands Of large farmers
here, but not sufficient to bring down
the price which is steadily rising.
The price of corn is also rising, the
advance being over 30 per cent as
compared with the prices of August.
This causes hardship among the poor.
There is possibility of the duty on
corn being abated.
