The paraders complied with the or i der and marched about the mill section ' shouting “scab" at crowds on the walks. ! Later the column halted in front of the ’(Phoenix mills and leaders addresaed the strikers, si caking tn bitter terms of : their employees and the operatives who i j refused to join the strike this morning.
