Conference is Called at the Re-
quest Of the Striking Cut
ters and Flatteners.
PROPOSITION TO BE MADE
BY the Strikers Looking to an
End Of the Present Trouble.
Relief Money Comes.

The strike of the Window Glass
Flatteners and Cutters which has
been on the last several weeks. seems
to have reached crisis and decisive
action is to be taken this week.
Al number OF places the plants
are running and here the factories
are all at work. Some of them claim
to be running full blast and the rep
resentatives OF the strikers them
selves admit that they are running
two-thirds full and time. At some of
the plants, however, sheet glass con-
tinues to be shipped. but the order is
sued by the head officers of the blow
ers and gatherers for apprentices is
likely in due time to overcome that
SO critical has the situation be-
come that there will be meeting in
Plttsburg tomorrow to discuss the
strike and consider the outlook.
The hatteners and cutters instruct
ed President shinn to call this meet
ing. 1t is to be conference with
the manufacturers of glass all over
the country to take steps to end the
trouble, and win be held in the Ho-
tel Henry In Pittsburg.
II Is stated that the flatteners and
cutters will at this meeting make n
proposition TO the manufacturers.
Exactly what such proposition win bc
Is not learned. but the intimation Is
that the striking organization will

than they have been holding out for.
the acceptance OF lower wages may
have two meanings. One is that
there may have been freeze or
starve out as to the strike and in a
measure 1t has failed in reference to
the manufacturers thus far as the
latter are operating their plants to
some extent, without the work of the
fiatteners and cutters.
The conference however, may moi
end the strike. as 1t is intimated that
unless satisfactory agreement can
be reached Thursday, the American
Window Glass Company viii be asked
to reduce the wages of its cutters and
fiatteners. which win likely also cause
reduction Of the wage scale now
paid here and elsewhere.
1t is to be hoped that no such
steps need be taken but that there
will be an adjustment at the Pitts
burg conference that will result II
the immediate return to active op
erations at all the glass plants in :h'
country.
In connectlon with the situation
the window glass cutters and flatten
ers OF the American Window GlasI
Company yesterday assessed them
selves thirty percent, and the full
amount of that assessment will b'
placed in clarksburg, for the henen
OF the unemployed workmen here.

be Rendered Because
Of Demurrer.

In the $4,000 damage suit by
Samuel Fittro against the Fairmont
& Clarksburg Traction Company in
circuit court Wednesday, for the loss
of the lower portion of leg, when
struck by a street car at Wilsonburg
November 20, 1905, the defendant
demurred to the evidence, which had
the, effect Of taking the law and the
facts from the jury except as to the
amount of damages. This required
q special verdict by the jury to the
effect that IL the court thought the
law in favor Of the plaintiff on de-
murIE,r to the evidence, then the
Judgment would be entered on the
verdict in favor of the plaintiff, but,
|if III court thought the law ON de-
murrer of the evidence favored the
defendant. then the judgment should
be entered on demurrer of the EVIL
dence for the defendant.
At press time the jury had not
brought in a verdict fixing the
amount of damages.
The jury trials have ended for the
term and Jurors on the Fittro
case will be discharged as soon as
they report a verdict or that they
can not agree.
The term will not end until next
Monday or Tuesday. The session
will be devoted to chancery matters.
