PUTNAM Forty Strikebreakers, Some Former Employes, Arrive at Mechanicsville Mill—Graduating Exercises at Notre Dame and High School—Amasa A. Holden Not Coming to Putnam. The ending Wednesday of the fourth week of the strike at the plant of the French River Textile company at Me- chanicsville was marked by the most important ineident since the operatives walked out from the mill, this incident embracing the arrival nere of about 40 strikebreakers, recruited, it s under- stood, in Philadelphia. All'of the newcomers, with one ex- ception, are men, and have previously been employed at the plant in the nearby village. The strikers reached Mechanicsville on the first train up from New London Wednesday morning. Thelr arrival at the village was a decided surprise to the strikers,who had anticipated noth- ing of the kind, at least at this time. The men immediately proceeded to the mill and went to work. It was learned Wednesday after- noon that the company in bringing op- eratives here does 80 without any de- sire to antagonize their striking op- eratives. The company has much at point at issue with the strikers not time that their samples for the next season be gotten off the looms; and having gone through a series of con- ferences last week in which the only successfully arbitrated was the com- successfully arbitrated wa Sthe com- pany’s right to withhold its promise to re-employ a certain small numbes of its former operatives, not more than a dozen, it was felt that the only course left open for successfully car- rying on the business was to get other workers to come here and operate the machinery of the plant, 1t is further understood that the company stands willing to receive those operatives who desire to return to their work, and that they will not be discriminafed against or humiliated in any way because of their having been out for nearly a month. It was given out Wednesday after- noon that many of the operatives who have been idle for a month, principal- ly those who were forced out of work because of the going aut of the em- ployes in other departments than their own, are willing and anxious to return to their work, and may do so today. The strike committee and leaders were engaged Wednesday in earnest conference situation. What their polic: in dealing with the situation as it now develops is uncertain, but those in close touch with the situatfon persistent endeavor to win will be maintained. 1t is understood that n: ices will be Ten Virgins; ‘Wake: second scene, Virgins Awaiting Bridegroom; third scene, The Faolish Virgins' Despair; cornets, Amaranth Miss Murphy, Miss valedictory, Miss Farrell; chorus.
