ScUMNER’s PosiTion.—Mr. Sumner is almost daily called on by colored people from the South anxious to know what side he intends to take in the presidential campaign. He assures them that he will inno event support Grant, but he does not go so far as to say that he will favor Greeley and Brown.

Each member submitted various routine matters pertaining to his department; but nothing in regard to the treaty matter transpired, except the reading of @ few dispatches y, Secretary Fish, which showed that no definite action had been taken by the English authorities, and therefore no special aetion of our government was required.

Tar Lanon gd aime & Elder's sugar refinery in Williamabur, closed. A force of strikers crossed from New York to the vicinity of the refinery yesterday, followed by police, but returned peaceably without sccom- plishing anything. In Jersey City the strikers ‘gan to gather at Matthieson & Wincher’s sugar refinery at an carly hour. The police dis- persed them. Officer Eaton, who was wounded on Sunday, still hes in a dangerous condition. The masons met yesterday and again vigorously denounced the action of the police. The striking sugar refiners asked permission from post gon ice authorities for a parade in the lower P the city this morning, expecting to turn out 3,000 men. The piano-makers will all, it is believed, soon return to work on the ten-hour system. Two-thirds of the men are bouche P at work, and only four establishments remain idle. Those still on @ strike propose to join the other branches of the eight-hour ere in mass meeting at Cooper Institute on Friday evening. The machinists and metal-workers reported the accession of five new shops yesterday, making thirty-five in all. The larger employers deter- mined to hold out, and a Genntates has been sent to Roache’s works at Chester, Pa., hoping to induce a strike there. Singer’s sewing ma- chine factory closed yesterday, and the men are on astrike. The employes of several white lead works struck tday. The motal-workers and brass founders wili send a deputation to the eastern states to induce strikes. The strike on the New York Centra! railroad is ney gen- eral, from New York to Buffalo. All the trades unions are making arrangements for a grand procession on the Fourth of July. ‘The car shops at West Albany yesterday were deserted, 1,000 employes having quitted work.

The Conference at Geneva. THE ENGLISH RESOLUTE AND THE AMERICANS FIRM. New Yorx, June 18.—The Herald's special from Geneva dated the 17th instant says: The English are resolute for an eight months ai- journment, and the indications are that it this is not granted they will withdraw from the arbitration. This the Americans wil! not con- cede, theugh ashorter adjournment might be accepted. Very little was transacted before the board to-day beside the aunguucement of Mr. Davisot the non-recéption of instr ions from his government. ‘There is some re that the main difficulty in th> been reached ee which it is tinue the arbitration. 1 received on Sunday night a lo heir government, and subsequcnily a moe and long conversation took piace between Roundell Palmer and Wm. M. Evarts. news had been published here that Lord pille haa stated in the House of Lords tha’ the nglish agents would present a summary of the English argument before the board, but Lord Granville’s subsequent explanation is not gene- rally known here. This statement, therefore, reatly mystified both sides, as no summary had n presented, the English agents wondering how such a summary could have been pre- sented without their knowledge. At the MEETING BETWEEN SIR ROUNDELL PALMER AND MR. BVARTS, All this was explained, and a distinct ander- ogee 3 had upon other points of the dispatch. ‘The different members are making preparations to stay a considerable period. The general view of the court is against a postponement for eight months, | It believes that if the President of the United States was disposed to go further in regard to the supplemcatary article, he coald convene the Senate in a few weeks, and if he will not do so in a few weeks, he will not in eight months. THE AMERICANS WON'T BACK DOWN. It is therefore regarded as unlikely that there will be any change in the American position. The officers of the court are evidently giving the whole business most serious care, and dealing with the matter 1m a manner so that their action may not in the slightest degrce embarrass either party. if the court should make any suggestion it is believed that it will be something in the nature of a compromise, but at present the tribunal merely listens to the statements made on both sides. ——<. New York Bews, THE CIVIL SERVICE RULES IN OPERATION. Naw Yore, June 18.—The board of examin- ers of the Treasury department under the civil service rule have been here in consultation with the custom house officers, and have agreed upon & system, which will be put in operation at the earliest practicable moment.

Y., June 1%.—The workmen of the West Albany railroad shop now on a strike, held another meeting this morning. It was re- solved to proceed in a body to East Albany to invite the workmen there to join in the strike, and a committee of fifty was appointed to act as & police escort, whose dutius it should be to pre- serve order and report any disorderly person for punishment by theleague. Dispatches was read from Syracuse, inquiring whether the strike was general among the workmen in this city, to which @ response had been sent that up to this morning it was confined to the workmen of the raili shops at West Albany. A treasurer was appointed, and the men were called upon to contribute for the —- of meeting incidental expenses. Several secretaries were appointed. The men then proceeded in a body, under es- cort of their own police, to East Albany. TBE STRIKERS CALL ON GOV GOPPMAN. At the meeting of workingmen this morning & committee was appointed to wait upon the governor and represent the position taken b e strikers, which they hold to be in accord. ance with the laws of the state. The governor received the committee, but said they must excuse him from making a speech. His views upon the question were matters of record in his speeches and elsewhere. Any speech he might make would be, in all probability, misinterpret- ed. He cautioned them to see to it that not! ing was done to disturb the peace ani order of the community, or to excite the hostility of law- abiding citizens. oe State Conventions.
