Tho Meadow Brook Silk mill, located
on Cedar avenue, was tho arena of tu
mult yesterday. Every female from
the girls 15 years of age to the fore
women of maturer years, had come to
th'e mill In the morning burning with
a desire to wreak vengeuneo upon a
foreman, John Meslor by name, who
lias gained unwelcome notoriety of lato
through a local Sunday paper. Last
Sunday's Issue of this paper printed
what purported to be an Interview with
Mr. Mesler. He was quoted ua saying
that nil tho girls at the Meadow Brook
mill were Just as bad ns Miss Donahue,
who alleges that Mesler is the author
of all her woes. This would have been
bad enough, but tho additional state
ment he Is alleged to have made wns
that any girl would go with-him and
"do likewise."
This was too much even for the
much abused mill tjlrl, henco the dis
play of emotion and the secret con
sulting and apparent understandings.
It was decided to see .Superintendent
J. H. Brooks and ask for tho discharge
of Mesler. If that was refused every
girl Intended to stop work
In pursuance of these intentions each
floor was represented by three of the
girls on each floor and the committee
thus formed were to wait upon Super
intendent Brooks forthwith: All this
would have ended In a perfect under
standing had not one man, John Bat
ten, foreman on the second Jloor
brought about tho possibility of two
suits.
Miss B. Rellly, one of the throe from
the first floor ran upstairs to notify the
three of the second lloor that they were
all ready. The girl is about 15 years
of age. She had larely gone on the
floor leforo Batten approached her,
and not only, she alleges, slapped her
in the face, but forcibly put her out
Into the hallway and almost threw her
down the stairs. Not content with
this Batten returned to the lloor It Is
said and approaching ono of the fore
women in unprintable language, insult
ed her.
Tho committee at last got together
and saw the superintendent. Mesler
It is reported, will be dismissed. Super
intendent Brooks could not be seen
yesterday and therefore a confirmation
of the report could not bejobtalned.

Tho Star Social club held Its fourth
