Faxt River, Mass, March 11.—The weavers strike for an advance in wages. which occurred history of pr hae here.

They thought the help would be so much divided as to wisdom of a strike at present that this circumstance would disor- ganize the movement in a few days. The op- eratives are very much pleased at the unani- mous sentiment of resistance displayed, and predict an early victory. They claim that the: can afford to maintain the strike for several weeks. It is the impression that the manu- facturers can give an advance at present prices for cloth and can ill afford to curtail prodac- tion for even a short period. The board of says, however, that no advance will be given, and a bitter struggle is anticipated. — A COOL BANK ROBBER. He Locks the Cashier in the Safe, Takes @ Little Cash and Flies, but is Caught. Warentows, N. ¥., March 11.—One of the boldest bank robberies that has occurred in this section of the state in many years surprised the people of Norwood, St. Lawrence county, Saturday. F, Smith, cashier of the Norwood bank, was alone in the building about noon when Chas. Pheips, the post-office clerk, en- tered and asked for some stamps, Mr. Smnith stepped into the vault toget them when Phelps quietly closed the door and turned the combi- nation, locking the cashier in. The robber | then turned to the money drawer and took all the paper money that it contained, €278, leav- ing several hundred dollars in silver. The amount would ordinarily have been much larger on Satarday, but business had been light that day and the robber's booty was probably not nearly as large as he had expected it to be. OFF POR CANADA, Phelps had made arrangements to have ® horse ready and with it he started at once for the Canadian border about 15 miles distaut Meanwhile a customer entered the bank and saw what had happened. He beard the cashier calling to him trom the vault, and being in- structed as to the combination, released him. Prompt action was taken to prevent Phelps crossing the border, but nothing was heard of the robber until the midnight ‘train arrived, and he was discovered as one of the passengers. He had gone by a circuitous route to Brasber Falls, and taken the train there, hoping to ride * | through Norwood at midnight without being detected and then go on to Ogdensbarg, where he could easily cross juto Cauada. CAPTURED AND JAILED, But parties on the train who knew him had learned of the robbery, and upon arriving at Norwood he was delive over to the officers. Only about $11 of the amount stolen was found on Phelps’ person, He was kept in charge of two officers over Sundey and was taken to the Canton jail to-day to await the action of the grand jury, which meets in June. Phelps is a young man, a native of Norwood. le has fallen into bad habits of late, and is said te have become an opium eate: ic nace Mn on From Wall Street To-day.
