GLASS PLANT TURNS
OUT ITS FIRES
AS a Result of the Refusal
Of Its Employees to
Accept Reduction.
ALL PLANTS IN STATE
May Cease Operations Within
Ten Days as Result of
Conferences.

The West Fork window glass fac.
tory is idle as the result OF a mis-.
understanding between the company
and men over wages.
With the fires turned out, l5C
employees of the West Fork did not
go to work Sunday midnight. Motif.
cation was given by the company
Sunday that the men would have to
accept reduction OF wages OF from
fifteen to sixteen per cent, 1t is
claimed. and they refused to do SO,
dependent upon action to be taken
by their national officers, and the
company then turned out the fires.
The employees took the position
that they would have no right 10
accept reduction of wages until
ordered to do so by the national Of
ticers of their association and that
to do so would be to disregard their
union and promote the private
.agreemen plan of wages. They
asked that they be paid the regular
scale until the settlement Tuesday,
b. which time the national officers
would have the matter before them.
The company declined to do this.
the men refused to accept The wage
reduction and the company then
turned out the factory fires.
The action of the company IN ask.
ing for a reduction Of wages is said
to have been based on a six per cent
reduction by the American Window
Glass Company in the market price
OF glass. This reduction was made
Friday.
The action of the West Fork Win.
dow Glass Company followed con-
ference here of the window glass
manufacturers of West Virginia, the
last of which was held Saturday
night, when a resolution was
adopted concerning the wage scale
and committee appointed to confer
with Joseph Neenan, OF Cleveland,
o., president of the National Window
Glass Workers.
Leading window glass workers
here believe the action of the West
Fork is forerunner of concerted
plan of the West Virginia manurac-
turers to abrogate the union wage
agreement and to employ the private
agreement plan hereafter. They ex-
press .he opinion that should thai
be the case every window glass fac
tory in the state will be idle within
ten Lays.

from What 1t Was Dur
ing the Summer.

PARIS, Oct. 2S.-captain Henriqu4
de Paiva couceiro, the principal
leader of the monarchist revolt in
Northern Portugal. is very popular in
the Portuguese army. especially
among the artillery in which branch
he served. During the days OF the
4th and 9Th or October, 1910. he
fought heroically in the streets Of
Lisbon and was among the last. de
tenders Of the palace OF the Necessi-
dades against the Republicans.
When the struggle was nearly over,
Minister of Manuel, Senior Texeira
souza, wounded by fragment OF
shell, crossed the royalist lines on his
way TO surrender his seals OF Office
to the provisional government. o.
q have been wounded in my own
house by a splinter OF hell, said the
minister to the captain.
Serves you right" answered Cou-
ceiro. roughly, your plaza was in
the street"
When the monarchist regime was
definitely ended Couceiro was not mo-
Tested by the Republicans. The new
War Minister, Colonel Barreto, even
offered him a higher grade, which at
first he accepted. but soon gave up 10
work for the cause of the king.
One day before group of soldiers
the captain had lively alteration
with Colonel Barreto.
Who arc you for" questioned cou-
ceiro abruptly, turning to the men.
For the king of the republic?"
NO. for you, captain they an
