STILL ANOTHER UNION.

 

The men and boys who shove in and lay out in the glass factories of Maring-Hart and Hemingray's have formed a union. Heretofore the boys have been paid from $7 to $10 per week but now demand more. Their work is not counted a trade however but some experience is necessary to do the work well. The new organization was formed March 15 last but considered advisable not to make any demands until this fire. About one hundred and twenty-five boys and men are interested.
