Mm EASTER MONDAY BRINGS JOY Thousands of Mill Operatives Get Baise in Their Wages. GENERAL SITUATION IS IMPROVED Nearly Fifteen Hundred Men F.m plord In Boston Breweries Will Leave Their Work on Strike Today. BOSTON. April 1. The pcatlng of no tices of advances In wages made Easter Monday a particularly pleasant day to tens of thousands ot cotton mill operatives In southern New England. Some disagree ments over the amount of the raise have arisen and the yarn mills operatives, who have not been Included In the increase, are disposed to be reative, but on tho whole the mill situation Is better than a week ago. The chief incident today was the con tinuance at work of most of the 18,000 operatives In the seven corporations at Lowell, who on Friday last expected to be Idle through the vote of the organized crafts to strike. Work was resumed as usual, except In those departments In which orders had been closed out in anticipation of a shutdown. In a few days every available man will be at work and probably the night shifts of spinners and carders in some mills, as dur ing the entire winter months. It was evident today that the textile council declared the strike off under the Impression that a strike actually would have been turned Into a lockout, eo deter mined were the mill agents to resist an tncrease In wages. It was expected that 1,500 men employed In the Boston breweries would leave work today, having been unable to reach an agreement with the master brewers on three disputed propositions, hours of labor, free beer and in the matter of discharge, but after a long discission late tonight, it was decided to obtain the approval of the Central Labor union, and with that to leave work on Thursday. Every brewery in the city will be more or leas effected, and It is expected that a large number will have to shut down. The brewers demand the right to discharge any employe at their own discretion, but at the same time agree not to employ any but union men. The men on their part demand that before a man is discharged he shall be accorded a hearing. As to so-called free beer, the brewers state that under a recent decision of the police commission such a privilege or con sideration is part of a contract and under the law constitutes an illegal sale. The only answer to this by the men is that free beer has always been'allowed. Regarding the hours of labor, the two contending parties appear to be nearer on thto point than on any other, the men hav ing agreed to a nine-hour schedule and the 35 cents an hour for overtime.
