In addition to the reduction of wages mentioned then. we see that the wages of the workmen in the nail works at Bellefonte, Penn., a 25 per cent reduction in wages has been jmade. And thousands of workmen at the steel mill of the Bethlehem, | Pa., iron works have had their wages reduced ten percent. At New Cas tle, Pa., the workmen have agreed ,to a reduction of ten cents per day for labor, and 15 cents for 12 hour turn men. The puddlers of the Brooke Iron Company at Birdsboro, near Reading, Pa, have refused to accept a proposed reduction of 25 cents from $3.75 to $3.50 per ton. and rolling mill is closed down.
