admits that the party is in d? sp. rat. straits. Hith?

fied willi doing well ; ttimmt we do a great ?Jeal bet?

tiowsonuwh.il formidable movement in favor of
Charles Francis Adams, tin* apparent ?Icplitioii of
th? Loriiig forci-x, and the wild talk about taking
(jen. Hirth it lioldly from the anns of the Democ?
racy and making him a K?-publi?-an ?-andid.it?? for
?Uov?riior, instead of a 1>< inociatie candidate f??r
LuiiUiiant-liovernor. Whether this re??ignition of
the licicssitics of the ease will stand before partisan
n-cjudices, when it conns to the balloting, remains
to be Ml ii.

lill loItl.NU AM) IHI KI? K MI EH.NCiS.
At each of Out m-veral headquarters (>i?en meetings
were held this t-veniug, and spec?, he? were made to
eacourage Oft strong and strengthen the weak. The
hire nu n Called txliiiv. Tucker to the chair, and
went addr?sse?l by Moses Kimball of Boston, S. Au
gier Chaier. a prominent manufacturer of Fall
Rivei, John 11. 1). CoggHwell of Yuruionth, S. W.
Russell of Law-ieine, the Hon. E. R. Mudge of Boa
ton, and oth. in. All of thc?se geutleinen deilared
Mr. Kico th? ir iirst ?hoice, bit expressed their wil
hnguoHB to accept the voice of the Convention. Mr.
Kiuil?.ill in.i'ii boin? sly hint? at Mr. Atlau.s, win? li
w? re ;?i??.1h?ii1i ti. He wanted no hybrids at the head
of llie ticket, he said. If the Republican ship is to
li o down, it must go down with colors llyiujf, ?Vc.
Though litrge, the Rice me'ting was not conspicu?
ously enthusiastic, in comparison with the Luring
gathering in the next room. 'J ti** Loring men
cheere?! and staini>ed on the slightest pro\ocation
and at most gmt?mp* led jioints. These were ad
drcswd hy the ?Bar, Dr. Ipliun of Lynn, the Hon.
F. A. Hobart of Braiutrcc, Mr. Reed of The Taunton
tloicltc. Ogg Har. Mr. Hummer, ex-Chaplain of the
Huns?, and Wiibtir 1*. lingham. Col. C. 11. Taylor
of 7 ht Bttk n Glube presided.
A SHOW 00 Mi:l.N?JTH HY THK ADAMS MUN.
While IhtM meetings were going on upstairs, the
Adams nu?n, le*s l?>ilunate in the choice of a room,
talked the matter ovtr on the ground floor. Mr.
?ri-eti of Itu Wtt*mK*?9 Syy had the Chair, and there
wot?- si?ea-(h? s by Prof. Win. Everett of Cambridge,
mon ti Edward Everett, W. l? .Sheldon of The Lu. ton
Ji'eic*. N. li. Hale, J. H. Walker, E. E. Lyman, and
W. li. Shelton. Prof. Everett's speech was an elo
?fjueut rwNiew of the public cart?cr of Mr. Adams.
It was r?-<<i\??d with much favor. It was evident
that the Adams men were surprised at their own
etrongtb. The friends of I he other can?lidat>i? have
been hard at work for weeks. 'I'ho Adams move?
ment came right from the people. It would not have
be*'n po?vib!e had not the Democrat? nomina tod
rich a strong ticket and made such an unex-seption
able platform. Under the inspiration of a crowded
room and enthusiastic speeches they begun work in
earucut at Has meeting, appointing au executive
(oiMiiittve and adopting a resolution to stick to
their candidate to the very end.
But all the Adams men were not found in the
Adama headquarters. Another room bad b??eu
set apart for a meeting of uucoiumittod dele?
gates, with a -view of an exchange of opinion.
Adin Thayer, a well known Republican of Worcee
ter, presided, and ?spoke guardedly, but with a lean?
ing toward Mr. Rice. Others followed in advocacy
of the claims of Mr. Rice, but the Adams m? n sud?
denly made a demonstration, and finally seem to
have captured the me? ting.
THK CANDIDATP9.
It is now gi?!,(?!ally admitted that the vote lies be
fwe?n Rice, Loring, and Adams. The only com?
promise candidates whot>e names are heard are
Judge Colt of l'ittsfield, a good lawyer and p??p
u?.?r gentl-man, now on the Supreme Beach, and
(i? n. W. F. Barth-tt, the Democratic candidate for
Li? uti-nant-Govcrnor. There is no organized move?
ment, however, in favor of either of them. It is
suited that t.Vn. Bartlett will not accept the
Democratic nomination, if Mr. Adams heads
the Republican thket, and that he is disinclined to
oppose Mr. Kice, but he will fight Dr. Loiiiiir fimt,
la t, and all the time. As to the probable vote on
the tiret ballot to-morrow, there is gr? at uncertainty,
but the following estimate is obtaiti<-?i from those
who have cuiefully canvaescd the fiehl : Kice, HBO;
Loring, MOO; Adams, 1.50; statt? ring, .'100. 'lhere
is little speculation about the subordinate places on
the ticket. The following are the prominent eon
didatea: For LieuU'iiant-fioviriior, Horatio G.
Knii'ht of East Hampton, who now tills the office.
POT Secretary of State, Hi my B. Pearce of Abing?
don, an infln? ntial member of the (?rand Army
of the Republic ; W? E. Blunt, and Oliver
Warner, the present nu iimbent. For Tn'iisurer,
Charle? Kndicott, the present Auditor; E. B. Stod
daxt of Worcester, and E. C. Katy of Framingham.
('bailee R. Train will probably be reuoininat-wl for
Attorncy-GeneraL Mr. Ptarce ?jeerna to he the
favorite for tSe?-rctary of State. There may be a
lively ?contest over the Auditorship.
WHO ARK TOBE OFMCKH8 OF TUK CONVENTION.
At the in?-?-! in?/ of the State Central Committee to?
night it wau statod that in view of hin candidacy for
Governor, Dr. Loring, the Chairman, had declined
to call tlie Convention to order, and would not be in
the city to-morrow. It arti determined, therefore, that
thia duty -should devolve upon Col. W. W. Clapp of

IHK SIDE Of IHK MII.I.-OWNK'lH.
A? to Hie tu.ititi* of the mill-owner? in requiting the
siginiii.' ol' tin- ?uri. .-mi nt which lu? been referred to, the
mill owii.-is ?uni treasurer? say that the union? have at?
tempted to du tato to the operatives concerning wlien
tbi-y shall work, and at what jirices. Uperatives have
la-en onli-red out of the mill?, and have felt coiujiclle?! to
obey. When the mill?1 have been running, even in the
Usual manuel, Hut. liaslxt-n hu arraiigemeiit by which?
when out? ra were giveu by au ovcisct-r, even uikiu
triii.il matters, which wen? not entirely ace. j.table to the
leaders?by simjily ral?ing their hand? they could, and
often did. eaass a stoppage of ?ill t lu? machinery in the
room, and of course a strike wa? the result. A strike
linking thus baaa ordered In one department has re

of a few panam la_a_aa_atat| throw?? out ?>f tttgkej Braal
scierai hundred pi-ople. To meet these nlgeucles tho
regulation* coiit.iliied In the articles of agreement now
submitted have been adopted.it haling been deemed
necessary for the projier prutet'tlou and ?leatly employ?
ment of iiidiistrtmis operatives who desire regular em?
ployment.
The manufacturers say they have not assumed to prevent
any orgsnbv.atioti for legitimate purpose?, and have only
u!ti i..pt' .1 to make ?in h regulation? a? are necemtary for
the jinn??-* uiioii of n bu?Hie ? where so large a number
Sie ctupioyetl, and so large lute reata are at stak??. The
regulation simply provides tb.it eau li iudivldiial shall
make his own decision as to when and whore be ?hall
work, and for what price, regardless of unions. The j?ro
vlston as to 10 days' notice lor each ?iterative the manu?
facturers say Is simply Intended to ?usure regularity In
the working ef the sc\ eral department?, and to insure
employ-mat to all. Any steps taken to prevent I n terni p
tioin lu the regularity of work is quite as much for the
U iirfti of those who ?.??ni??, ?ta-.ui-, work as for the cor?
poral Ion?.
Tbe q.n ition may be'more definitely comprehended by
I a r-iatciiicTit of the number employed in raub departuiciit
of a mill of 40,000 spindle*. There are employed In the
picker department, 8; card strippers and grinders, 8;
drawing tenders, 4 ; speeder tenders, lil; oth?-r card-room
hands, 30; spinners, 3'J; other hands in spinning-room,
5? ; ?poolers, M j warpers, ? : slashers, 3 ; web drawer?,
11; weaving department.'.??io ; miscellaneous, 40; total,
4o0. Heretofore the custom baa boen to give two weeks'
notice of intention* to leave, but there ha* ticen no obli?
gation on the part of the operatives to be in any way re?
sponsible for breaking this regulation. The time of notice
rcciuire?! has now been re?luced to t?u days, and un arrange?
ment fixed by which the operator forfeits the wages that
may be due him at tho time tue agreement is broken.
Consc?|iiently, the regulation is les? onerous than hereto?
fore, but some responsibility is assumed for breaking It
anil throwing out of employment the entire for? o of the
mill, and preventing the mill owners from completing
their contracts. The manufacturers aver that no caiidld
miii'leil pernou, familiar with the thousand and one de?
tails of the business, and the events of the past year or
two, will pronnuuee tho agio m? ut an} tiling more than
what is necessary to counteract the tenth ncies which
have been developed aa the result of constant agitation.
The mauiifacliirers, whose interests are wholly Identi?
fied willi the siic?,cms and pmspcrty of UM community,
believe Hint the arrangements they have adopted arc
vital to the permanent prosperity of Fall River. They
state that the original reduction of wage? was made Jan.
1, which, li will be remembered, was general through?
out New-KnglHiid. It \? as ten p<?r cent. About April 1
that reduction wa* reston ?1 lu this city, but not generally
in other manufacturing districts. The reduction of Aug.
I wa? for the purpose of placing tile rat?- of wages at tiiat
which ??.is cum tit lure during the early part of the year,
ami whh h had rt-ni lin.-al current throughout the other
inaniifactmiiig distritts. Tlie object was to continue
husiu.?.? and keep the operathes employed without any
material io- - to the corporations. This Is the ftate of the
ease tis in? utiled by the manufacturers, anti their state
tin lils ggg boin? oui by a large portion of the community.

Tlie explanations of the cause of tlie stliko j
among the opa-rativt-s to the Fall River cotton mills, as
given l?y persons in tills city who arc largely interested
lu the cotton industry, vary to soiiii! exteut, but the fol?
lowing fat Is sectil to be gem-rally accepted. Fall River
is the great center of the print cloth manufacture in the
(Taltai Slates. Tin- supply of print cloths, it is stated,
in the last two yeal s has trailnally rome to be in excess
of the ?h m.ii.ii. FrU-ea have eonse(|uently suffered a
? otoiilerable redil? tioti, and Hie stockholders iu the mills
have found a corresponding difference in th? ir divideuds
From this state of affuns leniilted the proposed rcdticth.n
of wages dining the Hummer of this year. The opera?
tives took one month's vacation rutber than work at the
le.lm.-d ???ige?. Ou letuniiiig td their work they were
ready io ac? ?pt the terms of the employers. The latter
then met tin ni willi new demands. They asked that the op?
eratives -ikoulil alfa au agreement to beloug to no organ
i/ .lion lu whi-li a nnO'Tity regulates wages ; that if any
body of opiiative.i ?juit work without giving ten days'
notice th.-y should forfeit all wages due them, the em
plovirs only to accept notices from one-eighth of those
employed in any single department in a single week,
thus preventing a general allika m less titan eight weeks,
iinh'ss the oi?eratives were prepared fore eouslderable
?aerttee of waircs. l>npIoym?'ni was also refused to the
known leaders of oi-gaiii/ations. Th?>sc additional de?
mands occasioned the trouble of Mouday.
A large null owner and manufacturer and printer of
print cloths iu this State, whose firm employs about
1 .*i,000 hand*, gate it aw his opinion that the present ac?
tion of the mill owners, or thfir agents, in Fall River, is
a blow at tlie trades unions throughout the country.
Tin? ti ailes unions, he wus convint cal, wa-re at the bottom
taf tho strike there, as they had been previously. The
organizations among the operatives in that quarter
might assume different names, but they are really
biauelics of Hie saint? threatening organization, fed by it
ami reeding It In linn. It is a local mattet- Just at pres?
ent, but general lu its features. Last year the operatives
>ei/??d upon a time for their strike when contracts were
to be fulfilled, anti the employers were consentit ntly com?
pelled to iiecede to their terms or el-e suffer a grievous
loss. On this last occasion the ?Strike wits not so well
timed. Ibis,ne as had been so dull that there were no heavy
contracts, aud it made little diff?rend' to the otfners
whelheror not the mills were at a standstill. During the
month's vacation they hail organized together and agreed
upou the terms, which, as a body, they would demand of
the operatives. They really formed a counter organiza?
tion to Unit of the operatives which did not exist in tho
preceding year. Last year If one employer refused work
to aiiv operatives they went to other employers and ob
tainisl it. This could not happen nu lei present ?Trcutii
?taaeee, as Ike employers hail ??greed on common action.
He b? li? ved that the violence displayed by the opera?
tives originated with the agents of the trades unions.
The uiiin.is felt that tlie combination of the mill owners
was a blow struck at tlietn, and were likely to resist with
all their power. They would supply the funds for
tho coniinuatton of tlie strike, if necessary,
Within his own experience a I'nion had been formed
among his njierative?. They had subscribed a common
funil to the amount of about .*l"i,<)00 two years ago, and
were preparing to strike, when In? disco? ??rod it and dis
inisM'tl all concerued. This he was enabled to do suc?
cessfully, as he bud no one to compete with iiiiu. ile
ow ii. d all his mills, and if tho op.-rutivcs did not choose
to work for him they could go to no rival mill, ile ?lid
not kuow what Hie average wages for opcratnes were lu
Full River, but they must be much the sanie na else?
where, opcratnes Hier?? h ni t?i pay moie rent than do
those who work In hit nulls, because he owned the
houses lu which they lived as well as the mills, and the
nut was almost nommai, being really considered
iu their wages. Tho effect of the strlko
would be felt all over the country in
the depaituieitt of print cloths, aud calico goods are iu
more gent ral th-maiid lhan any other description of
catina gealla He thought the operativas in Fall River
were offer?-?! Just as goiRl average wages as the operatives
ni any other industry just at present. Indeed they had
done bettor on the average lhan others since the war, as
they lia.I not suffered a reduction In wages like those
engaged in other pursuits.
YIEW8 Ol' DllY MOM MKRCHAST8.
A partuerin one of the principal dry goods houses in
this city expressed the opinion that the trades' unions
hud nothing to ?lo w 111) the pr. sent trouble. He believed
that tin- whole affair was stirred up by organization*
among the opcrBlivca themselves, aud that uo outside
pressure was brought to bear on them. They were wil?
lina- to g<? to woik at th? re.lued wages. Th?' demands
of the employers s? ?un-d to him tiuwtse ami too strin?
gent. F.ven if acceded to, they would be, or coull! be,
rcniUictl practically iui?is-raU\e. He did not beliovo in
pledging employ?* lu that manner. These whom It wa*
found iici-?saary to bind by such pledges were sure to
fli.d some iii;?tiii'-r of breaking them. He belie vc?! rather
in trusting men up?>ii their own honor an?! good sens?', in
education, and in the power of moral suasion. If the*?
did not sulllce nothing else would. Hut h had !>??? n his
cxiM'iiciice among the employee iu his house. Ho never
deuiaatlc?l any pledg?-s of them on entering, and he never
found such pledges necessary, ??omi workmen were

to keep them. There ha<( Ix-eii a ? onsiderable depression
of late In prices of ?tie sp?-, al ? lass of goods that eame
from Fall River. He did uot think that th? strike would

The most important duties that the lim. hi s?ema
thus far to have ptiioiinctl have I cn tin inventioii
of untrue stories alxmt Mr. DEM and hi* R l.iti??na
with the President, and the iiiaiiiif:i?-tui ? ?f lil?? Is
upon I'rof. Marsh and others, who have I,? ? n proun
nent ill exposing frauda. Some of the ?li-paft lies,
written in Mr. Delano's interest, and ?hil li the pub
liiauonofthooiiiii.il correapondeu.ee has proved to
be false, wer?- prepare?l by Mr. Hablwin, and are in hi*
handwriting. Baldwin wa? at one time a special
agent of the Post-Ollico Department, mmjtonnam at
the solicitation of Mr. Delano. He not only failed
to accomplish anything in his line of duty, but hie
? barg? s for mileage and witness f??s w?-re of su? li an
outrageous chara? ter as to had to the tutti* i'?n that
some of them were dishonest. It often very
strangely haiipened that when lie wai a anted an a
\. itness at Cleveland, l,o would be in Cm? inuati
iusii-nd of Mount Vernon, where he lived, and sodrcw
mu? li larger sums for mileage than li? would other?
wise have done. This man, who had ?Ion? much of
Delano's political woik in Ohio for years, when he
was I urned out of tho I'ost-Office Dpirt incut, was
provided for in the Interior Department hy the crea?
tion of a new bureau. There is no new gossip to-day
about the new Secretary of the Interior.
