THIRD OF SERIES
OF LABOR TROUBLES
Head of Corset Plant Tells
Farmer He Expects
Speedy Adjudication

The third outbreak in a series of
labor troubles that has beset Warner
Brothers factory in the south end re-
suited yesterday in the walkout of
about fifty girls employed in the bind
ing department of the big corset
making establishment. The detection
of practically the entire department
isasaid to have somewhat crippled the
output of the factory to-day though
several Of the machines have been put
in operation by the selection of ope-
ratives from other departments who
are acquainted with the work.
A meeting Of the girls was held this
forenoon on the steps of the A. M. E.
Zion church, corner of Gregory and
Broad streets, when the grievances OF
the strikers were well aired. Dever
H.. Warner, head of the big industry
iss not blamed for the alleged cut in
ptece-WoTk prices which reduces wa
ges nearly 80 per cent. but the brunt
of the unemployed girls ire falls up
on a master-mechanic and others said
to be involved in establishing a new
system throughout the entire factory
DeVer H. Warner, when interview
ed by a Farmer reporter to-day. while
expressing himself as unfamiliar with
the situation said that he. believed
Someone had lost his head" He
further expressed himself as positive
that the matter would be adjusted to-
as other labor differences had been
both recently and in the past. He
further made positive statements that
q general cut in wages throughout
the factory was not considered at this
time.
According to statements made by
the girls at to-day's meeting, opera
tives IN the binding department were
receiving anywhere from 81 to $12
per week on piece work. From this
wage they were compelled to pay for
needles at the rate OF two for three
cents and thread at 20 cents per
spool, as we'll as for work which was
not passed as perfect. in the estima-
ton OF the Inspectors On Friday
last notice Of cut amounting to
about 80 per cent. was announced,
and while there was no work done on
Saturday afternoon. the girls worked
Monday and after an altercation, be-
gun by one of the girls for her full
pay under the old basis, the fifty
walked out at $3.50 p. M.
The chief complaint was, first that
the girls had been on short time nearly
all summer yet accepted conditions
and stuck by the factory and second
lowest wage even more than 1t did
those of longer experience and capable
of making between So and $14 per
week.
A delegation OF the girls was cour-
teously received by D. H. Warner to-
day. He promised to investigate
their grievances and remedy them if
possible. The strikers had dispersed
by 1880 O'Clock.
It is said that similar troubles
among the joiners and back-strippers
occurred last week and later was
annicab1y settled by Mr.. Warner in
person. About two weeks ago be-
tween 80 and $50 tippers went on
strike owing, it was said to the Off
ciousness of department head.

GERMAN

Berlin, March 2.-The German war
Office to-day gave out report on the
progress of the fighting dated March
2 and reading as follows:
Renewed French attacks in the
Champagne district have in most ca
ses already been repulsed. The
French were in strong force. Before
the German fire their losses were
enormous. AT some places there
were hand-to-hand encounters but in
all of them we were victorious. We
hold firmly our possessions.
''In the Argonne districts we have
taken several trenches, capturing six
ty prisoners and five mine-throwers
French attacks on Vauquois have
been driven back. The advantages
won by us in the Vosges during the
past few days have been maintained
in spite of violent counter-attacks on
the part of the enemy. French loss
es were especially heavy during an at
tack yesterday evening at a point
east of Celles.
"In the eastern arena of the war
the Russian advances to the south
east and south of the Augustowo for
est have resulted in failure. Russian
night attacks to the east of Lomza
and to the east of PIock have been
repuIsed.'

GALE HALTS FLEET
MOVING THROUGH
THE DARDANELLES

London, March 7-The operation OF
French and British fleets against the
Turkish fortfhcations on the Dardan-
eIIes. which during the past week had
taken the warships of the allies some
15 miles through this narrow water
way. are at a standstiI today on ac-
count of a gale of wind accompanied
by a heavy mist which interferes with
the edfciency Of marksmanship by the
naval gun11ers necessary to reduce the
second line of forts concealed by the
mills. This respite Is likely to prove of
benefit to the Turks but, the allies
realizing the necessity of pushing any
Oriental offensive movement with en-
argy, will resume as soon as possible.
Essad, OF Albanian fame, the Turkish
soldier who made his reputation as a
strategist by the defense of Janina. in
the Balkan war, has been placed in

Mrs. st. Clair said when she received

was only a ruse to deceive her into
thinking he was dead.
It is believed the double tragedy
might have been the result of a sui
