General Walkout of 'Textile Workers Fall River. FALL RIVER, Mass., Sept. 15.—The spin- ners and weavers' associations both held crowd:d meetings this afternoon, and as a result 38,000 textile operatives of this city are practically on strike. The spinners held a special general meeting in Carroliton hall and voted to strike, The exzcutive committee recommended that the strike allowance be reduced from $5 to $4 per week, and after the second week to §3, until further action be taken. The weavers' association also held a big meeting this morning. The weavers voted to continue the vacation until the old wages restored, but as they refused to £0 to work under the present rates they are virtvally on a strike. There was no debate at the meeting. The recommendation of the textile amalgamated committee that all operatives keep away should an attempt be made to start Monday was adopted unenimously. The operatives of the King Phillip mill, who have been on a strike for several weeks, were granted half strike pay for the last threc weeks. It was de- cided to appropriate $1,500 a week from the furds of the union to be distributed among the needy members, he strike of the spinners will force over half the milis to shut down, even should th weavers decide 1o go to work. The opinion among the operatives is that the manufac- turers will start up in a short time at the old rates. —~——— PRESIDENT NEWELL'S WILL.

Augusta J. Chapi Major Clarkson of the Great Major Clarkson returned yesterday from the grand encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic at Pittsburg as full of enthu- siasm and praise for everybody and every- thing he saw as it is possible for a man to get. “Pittsburg,” said the major, “is a most delightful town and the citizens fairly turned themselves loose, and such magnificent hos- pitality as was extended us on every hand was something not met with many times in a lifetime. ‘It was an occasion when a man was espe- cially proud of having been a soldier. The whole elty was most gorgeously decorat:d, tor as you know, it is one of the most loyal towns In the country. Couriesles were show- ered upon us from the time we landed until the last moment before dzparture, “The reception last Wednesday evening was the grandest, most elaborate affair I ever attended. The Westinghouse electric light buildings were where the princely affair was held. These buildings are among the iargest in the world, being 900 feet long by 500 wide. All the delegates to the encamp- ment and their ladies were there, making a throng of something like 8,000 or 10,000 peo- ple, and everything was as iridescent as a sun-kissed glacler, with sublime music, danc- ing and a banquet for the gods. Friday the delegates and their ladies were given u trip down the river on three gaily bedecked steamers. We went to Homestead and went over the famous Carnegie iron works. It was a most enjoyable and profitable trip. But the parade Tuesday—that was incomparable, indescribable. The streets were one jam of eager, excited and joyous people—a wonder- ful stght, but marching was extremeiy labor- fous indeed; the jam was fairly concrete. There s a monotony, of course, about these rades. Of the old soldicrs, but there is something touchingly beautiful about them, too, something that plays on one's heart- strings in spite of everything. Probably it is the unquenchable fires of patriotism re- awakened in_one's breast. Think of s:elng those grizzled old heroes, some on crutches, some armless, others hobbling along in the last stages of decrepitude, but bound to march all the same—bound to once more get in line. Yes, the encampment was a glorious thing, and Pittsburg is a glorious city.” Oregon Kidney Tea cures backache, size, 20 cents. All druggists, —_— Bla the Beer.

After walting four years the administrator of the estate of Thomas Lewls, de- ceased, has sued the New Omaha Thomson- Houston Electric Light company for $5,000 damages. On September 24, 1890, Lewls was a line- man [n the employ of the lighting company and during the afternoon of the day hereto- fore mentioned he was repairing a line at Sixteenth and Douglas streets, He had climbed the pole, which then stood at the northeast corner of the Young Men's Chris- tian association building, and was working away at the wires. Large crowds of people were passing at the time, when suddenly they were horrified to see the man loosen his hold upon the pole and drop into the net- work of wires a few feet below. There a struggle, & drawing up of the limbs and almost instantly young Lewis breathed his last, while little” wreaths of blue smoke curled up from the burning flesh which was in contact with the live wires. The man remained in the tangle of wires for a few moments, aftér which he was lowered to the earth and taken away. — Objects to His Assessment. William A. Paxton has sued the county of Douglas In an action to compel the missioners to reduce the assessin:nt block at the corner of Sixteenth and Far- nam streets, He alleges that the assessor of the Fourth ward listed the prop:rty at $65,000 for assessment purposes for the year 1894, and that on July 6. without due notice and contrary to the provisions of the statutes, the valuation was increased to $68,000.
