WEAvERs OUT.
So Windhani Silk Company Votes to Shut Down Plant for Indefinite Time.


 The directors of the Windhsm Silk company held long meeting Monday evening and following a thorough dis cussion of the matter of the walkout of the weavers in their employ Mon day morning, 1t was unanimously vot ed to shut down the plant for an indefinite period.
 It Is reported the weavers are not worried over the matter. as they are credited with making statements to the effect that the proposed shutdown is only a bluff on the part of the off cials. Those who are aware of the condition of the silk market at pres ent and of business In general are free to admit that shutdown will benefit only the stockholders of the silk com pany. The company has a good stock of manufactured goods on hand and will now be enabled to push out some of the finished product and have q general cleaning up.
 Mills from fifty to ninety times as large as the Windham Silk company are at present operating their plants on basis of from 36 to 40 hours per week with but slim prospects ahead of increasing that working schedule for some time to come.
 The walkout of approximately sixty weavers in the employ of the Windham Silk company will mean that the other eighty employees of the company will also be thrown out of employment that had every appearance of being steady, notwithstanding the present market condition, and they will be idle for period of indeterminate length.
 It is said that some twenty of the weavers who walked out were satisfied with the wage conditions and it is known that the big majority of the eighty other employees were satisfied and thus 100 contented employees have got to suffer together with all depend ent upon them, for the action of forty or so employees who were receiving a much better return for their labor than similar employees in mills throughout the state and New England.
