LAWRENCE MILLS
 CUTTING WAGES
10 Per Cent Reduction Will
 Affect 24,OOO Operatives

Lawrence, Mass, July IS Rl-A wage cut of 10 per cent affecting some 24,OOO operatives was an nounced yesterday in the American Woolen company. Arlington and Kunhardt mills, while the Pacific mills management indicated that similar action will be laid before the shop councils early next week,
 The cut in the first three mills Is effective July 27, The American Woolen and Kunhardt mills an- nounced the ten per cent drop while the notice posted in the Arlington mills said that "a new and lower scale of wages" would be iuaugur- ated on that date. The American Woolen company operates four mills in this city and one in Shawsheon Village, Andover. They normally employ more than 13,000 operatives while the Arlington employs nor- mally include nearly 5000 and the kunhardt mills have 800.
 While declining to be quoted dt- rectly the mill arrangements indi- cated that they hoped by this cut to stimulate business and find their way out of the situation in which the business has stagnated for the past IS months. If was said that in view of the fact there have been such long terms of idleness for many of the workers, union opposition 10 the cut Is not likely.
 This Is the second cut since a rapid succession of increases durins the war brought wages up more than 100 per cent, In the latter part of 1920 cut of about ten per cent was made. Tn 1923 an attempt at reduction failed when a strike of several months duration forced a continuance of the then wage scale.
 The Kunhardt mills was the only one to assign a reason for the cut, : saving "present business conditions were the cause of the reduction.
 The Pacific mills management said "the Pacific mills have taken no ac- ton yet, but will make an an' rouncement early next week to theil shop councils" These mills have an agreement with their employees tc submit any change in wages oi working conditions 10 the councils before making a public announce rnent.
 Later the H, T. Stevens and Sons company at their headquarters ir Andover also announced a cut of lL per cent effective July 27. This in' creased the number of workers af- fected by o,OOO for the company has mills in North Andover, Andover Haverhill, Franklin, N. H, and Peacedale, R, l,

of the sport. Then she turned upon Washington and defied him. She dar- ed him to hang her, which he had not had the least intention of doing. Her death. she predicted, would insure tho downfall of the colonies cause. At length he cut her short and ordered her taken, II prisoner, to West fcinss
 There, despite her reputation, ssszs managed to make drawings of the for tifieations, but these were found in her possession by her captors and de- stroyed. After the battle of Long Island. the patriots returned her to her fathers care in New York.
 The fallen climber made an effort to chamber back into her former place in New York Society. but without success. She lived for time with her father and then ran away. Even tually, she tells us, she married m army officer and deserted him, hee- ing to the West Indies with one of a long series of lovers. Her memoirs. written shortly before her death there, tell the rest of her life story with un- quotable candor. It was almost as though the furics drove her on to final destruction.
 Perhaps it was because she had known Aaron Burr that she wearied so swiftly of many men. Evidently, his recollection was still bright and vivid before her when she penned her defiant memoirs. He had touched and moved her as no other human could. Numerous lovers were cited in her book of shameless memoirs, callousiy or mockingiy. but Burr, therein, N termed "the love of my life"
 No other later climber who has striven to win a permanent place in New York's Society has dared more. paid more or failed so spcctaeulariy.

 "GEORGE WASHINGTON" Eventually. searehers found the girl in her eyrie. She was taken under arrest before General Washing ton. Neither the calm dignity of the man she had plotted against nor the fate that might await her, awed Mar garet Moncrieffe in the least. On the contrary she seemed to enjoy her examination by the Commander-in- Chief and his officers.
 Marsaret's Arrest
 There must have been a strange comedy played at headquarters that day when the sixteen-year-old girl, disheveled from her long concealment in the church tower, but still darkly beautiful, faced the grave Washing ton and his staff. She appeared to relish her situation. Major General Putnam and Major Burr were not to be envied in theirs.
 With a shameless delight she told of the manner in which she had out witted "Grandpa." She told of how he personally had conducted her on tours of the city's Notifications. Put nam writhed and she, seeing his dis comfort, piled tine iash stiii more vindictHefy. She related certain sen timental passages when she had sat upon "grandpa's" knee and stolen his papers. Putnam grew purple as she unfolded her tale. Staff officers rais- ed restraining fingers to their lips and turTssd their heads away, shoulders shahins. It is not improbable that the Father of His Country smiled at the aiscsnsolate picture of the old farmer confronted by the vivid, eaus- tic cause of his discomfort Fer . time, the -sirl-kept Burr out Eof Der story .Perhaps bhe hoped. re. nemhering the osths ke had sworn te her, .that he might come to her aid But she did not skno1Etthe heart of Aaron Burr.

Burr grew white He bore the ordeal without fiinching but ke suffered.

the credit for the spy's capture would go to him-and crept into the cham Der beyond Mrs. Putnam looked up from her sewing as he entered and started to speak, but he motioned her into silence. Bending over a table ir an aicove, her back toward him was the slender. lovely girl he had sworn he loved. Her paints were spread before her. She wa, completing water color of sunfiow' CT whose faring petals concealed | bastion; whose stem hid line O. earthworks. There were other pap. CTS beside her.
 Burr flung one arm about her, pin. ming her to her chair. With his other hand, he gathered up all hei papers, stuffed them into his pocket and without q word, ran from the room. The girl heard the door slam and the chatter of galloping hoofs before she realized what had happen ed. She gave a little cry and rose hastily, pale and frightened. She only shook her head in response to Mrs. Putnam's amazed queries, and col lecting her wits, ran upstairs. There she crammsd her pistols and some clothing into her saddle bags and put ting on her bonnet, crept from the house.
 When Plans Fail
 Stark terror must have been grip ping her, but she smiled at the sentries before the dwelling, passed their line and walked up the Broad Way, a cool self-possessed little figure. A lew blocks north and he came face to face with Corporal Hickey, swagger, ing along. The few words she nut tered to him took all the swagger out of his walk.
 She told him what had happened and bade him warn the consiprators. She was going to hide, she said, in the belfry of Old Trinity. The sex. ton of the church was royalsst and would see that she was fed and cared for until opportunity came for her ts slip out of .the, toyn. ., ....s..s,. ,.. ,s. Then she strolled on, deliberate ant half smiling and clsmbered up. int the tower of the church, destroyed | few months later by fire.

 She had not been there long befor, she realized that all her plans has been thwarted. She saw Hickey walk ing rapidly up the Broad way. 4 soldier fell in on each side of him They TTasped his arms.
