Fight Dix'S Prison Scheme,
Which the Chairman FavorS.
TAMMANY GRAFT SUSPECTED
Merritt Rejects Proposal That
State Buy Stone Intended
for Wingdale.
nv Telegraph 70 The Tribune.

Albany. March 25.-AlthouCh William
Barnes, jr., the Republican state chairman,
through an editorial in his newspaper, The
Albany Evening Journal" came out in
favor Of abandoning the wingdale prison
site, in accordance with a recommendation
Of Governor Dix, the Republican leaders
are unalterably opposed to bill making
that provision. introduced tonight by Sem
ator Roosevelt. It is not believed the
measure can get through the Assembly,
which is controlled by Speaker Merritt,
and Chairman Barnes has put the re-
sronsibility directly up to him
The Roosevelt bill authorizes the new
Prison Commission TO abandon the site and
to annul all contracts. giving the contrac-
tors the right TO recover any money they
may have spent or damages sustained In
the work so far done on the site by carry
ing their claims 10 the Board OF Claims.
As that board is a Democratic body, the
section giving TO 1t control over the re-
endorsement OF contractors is particularly
distasteful TO the Republicans. The bill
provides for the appropriation of s2l5,Oo
for the payment Of claims and Of $4,000
for the further expenses Of the new Prison
Commission.
Speaker Merritt has personal interest
IN the Wingdae prison matter, as ne is the
head of the Potsdam Red Sandstone Com
pany which has $4,000 contract for fur-
nishing stone for the proposed prison.
Governor Dix said this afternoon that
proposition had been made to Mr.. Merritt
that the state purchase an amount OF stone
equal 10 that called for by the company
contract with the p. J. Carlin Company,
which has the contract TO construct the
prison, and use 1t for other purposes. The
Governor declared the sandstone company
had refused the offer and demanded S1j,Wl
in lieu OF the contract The Governor said
he had since been advised that little or
none Of the stone had so far been cut
When Senator Roosevelt asked tonight
that this bill be advanced Senator Brack-
! EFT, the Republican leader objected.
I'VE have terrible suspicion" he said
that the abandonment Of Wingdale is fos-
| tered and encouraged FOR the benefit of a
! certain contractor. 1t looks like scheme
of Tammany Hall to relieve the contractor
| from an onerous contract, the carrying out
of which might cause him loss, and 10
enable him to make good profit out of the
| states money"

Organizer of Lawrence, Mass.
Workers Trying to Tie Up
Entire Industry.

Sixteen Of the nineteen silk mills In Hud-
son County. n. j., were tied up yesterday
as the weavers went out on strike. The
strike It is not believed will be protracted,
as two of the big mills-Pirdebard's in
Jersey city, and r. & II. Simonss, in
Union Hill-have acceded 10 the demands
and were running on full time yesterday.
The Schwarzenbach-H Huber Company s
mill. at Bayonne. il was said, was not af-
rected. as it agreed TO the terms. The mills
that are closed are in North Hudson. The
headquarters Of the strikers are at Lib
erty Hall. West Hoboken. The strike is
under the direction OF the Industrial Work
ers Of the World, who believe in peaceful
methods They also are conducting the
strike IN Passa!c County.
G. T.. Patrick. secretary of the Indus
trial Workers, said yesterday:
I'VE have the matter well in hand and
will win. Our main fight may be I'm tying
up the entire industry in this country. For
instance. we cannot fight successfully here
If there IS a mill in New York or Penn
sylvania which Is turning out the work
for the firms affected by the strike.
Perhaps the most important develop
mont IN the situation To-Day Is the an
nounccment of the Italian SILK Union that
its members will work together with the I.
w ". and let us assume charge Of their
interests.
I'VE have not been able to come 10 terms
with most Of the firms as yet mainly be-
cause they are anxious for a compromise
and because We feel that there can be no
compromise"
officials OF the Sghwarzenbach-H Huber SILK
mills, In Hackcnsack said they were ready
10 comply with the demands Of their strik-
ing weavers. Several meetings have been
held here by the strikers, but up to the
present time no demands have been made
upon the officials Of the mills. William A.
Rocker. superintendent Of the mills here,
said to-day:
1.-THE strike here Is due 20 outside inter-
ference and the agitators from out Of town
have succeeded I'm giving the workers the
idea that they will attain high results here
II they remain out. We are only waiting
for the strikers 10 make a demand, and we
will be willing 10 meet them half way II
their demands are within reason

miners drop all their demands except that
