AT NEW BEDFORD.

New Bedford, Mass, July 21.-After
an unsuccessful attempt, yesterday, on
the part of clergymen Of the city to ar
range a basis of settlement of the
strike and lockout affecting Il cotton
cloth mills and 13,000 operatives. the la
hor organization continued plans for
carrying on the strike against the
grading system of payment for cloth
weaving. The strike, tomorrow will
enter on its second week. Up to date
its cost TO the operatives in wages has
been 100000 and the merchants of the
city have suffered a corresponding loss
of business. Many of the operatives
thrown into idleness by the closing Of
the mills following the strike have
gone To other textile centers for en-
ployment, regarding the present situa-
tiop here as likely to continue many
weeks. Among the majority of the mill
workers remaining in the city there
mas been little or no suffering thus far
due 10 the strike and none is expected
for a week or more, as the final pay
day at the mills came only yesterday.
Relief work plans made by the labor
bodies will be put into practical opera
ton during the coming week.
While the New Bedford Textile Coun-
ell. with which the striking weavers
and loom fixers are affiliated. has de-
cided to oonfine the strike to the Il
mills now closed, the program of the
Industrial Workers of the World is OPP
posed to this plan. Leaders of the lat
ter organization desire To extend the
strike to the seven mills still in opera
ton, although the grading system of
weaving. the grievance about which
the strike eenters is not in force in
these mills. ARRANGEMENTS for a con-
tinuanee of pieketing at the gates OF
the seven mills in operation We're made.

Workers OF the World. In anticipation
