When the reporter beard the familiar uame, he stated to ber that be bad no ides Mir. A. could be in- duced to xtep around, bus stil be would write him up. Mrs. McGonigle theo went on to state thats week or s0 ago, while washing, a man with sometbing under bis cost slipped in at tho back door, and seked in s faint voice if there werp any policemen around.

So she, thinking he bad stolen something, bid bim go into the inver room, while sbe looked out on the street to see if any oue was in sight, Presently she came bac and said it was all right, ‘Then Mr. Allen explained the situation, He had with him a beautiful package of Irish linen, smuggled in by a friend of bis, » steward on s steamer. He conld sell it cheap for that reason, and also because he had no license, which made himso sby of policomen, Then he unfolded the parcel and showed the linen, which was in- dood delightful, being glossy and polished to a wonderful degree. ‘Then Mr. Allen, who said he camo from Belfast, whore they made such things, branched out into a dessertation on the wrongs of Ircland, and the efforts of England to break down her manufactures, and the duty of every Irishwoman to help her country, which the reporter believes was borrowed from on ora- tion once delivered by Mr. Morrison. 80 Mrs. McGonigie surrendered to the elo- quence of her countryman, znd bought the par- cel for $10, But when she came ta wash tho cloth she found that things were not what they seemed. Bhe discovered that the linen was cheap cotton which had been beantifally treated with potter's clay so as to give it body, and then in betweon rollers to giveit agioxs, The value ereof is believed to be about $1.75. This ia the little event in Mrs. McGonigle's career which put her out of temper, and which bronght her upto the office to see if she could gat justice.

Father Cote, pastor of the French Catholic Charcb az the corner of Halsted and Congress streets, in his residence in rear of the. clarch-edifice, and bore with tnem a small satchel containing eight bars of bright yellow metal, which they repre- sented as gold. They displayed the bricks to Father Cote, and seked him to buy them for 82,000.—a sum which thoy said was far below their valae. Ia answer to the good priest's inquiries, they said they — procti the gold from an Englishman on boards ship m which they took passage from Cartagena, in Boain, end pointed tothe bare, which. wero stamped with the name of that town. Being fearfal that they might be accnsed of stealing the gold, they were afraid to offer it in a bank or savy other place, they stated, and thought it best to come to Fatber Coto, a man in wnom they could confido, and whom thoy ould be glad to serve. The priest oyod them carofully, aud, after exam- -ining the bara cagually, made up his mind the men were swindlers and the metal bat a compo- sition of brass. So he quetiy dispatched a mes- seoger to Officer Decelin’s house, near by, and dotwinod the mon until his arrival. They were arrested and locked up in the Madison Street Station to await a hearing.

Both sides, however, have main tained their positions. The proprietors were not disposed to compromise, and the workmen made no advances in that direction. The latter regarded the strogrie as one of vital importance to their existence as = booy. They could place no other constraction on the discrge of Dun- nigap, who is one of the most efficient engineers in the Company’s employ, than an attempt to CRUSH THEIR UNION. ~ They declare that, if they should give way in the leust particular; advactage would be taken to redaco their wages, and they would hereafter be at the meroy of their employors, A number of them have no intention to wait for the end of the dispute, bat will seek work elsowhere. ‘What means the Company bave at their com- mand to combat the strikers could not be Tearned.
