THE JUNIATA’S STORY. The British schooner Juniata has just entered at Cape Flattery, owing to the absence ofwind. Two hands came to Victoria from there. They report that on July 27, when twenty-five miles from land, they sighted the Rush. They had 700 seal skins aboard and started to hide them. They managed to hide 100 before they were boarded by Lieut. Tuttle with acrew. When he them Tuttle examined the schooner and found the skins and ammunition. Those, with some Indian Spears, were taken aboard the Rush. The captain ga sealed letter of instructions to proceed to Sitka as a prize. oop oie ed wes putaboard. Lieut. Luttle told Indians not to mind goi to Sitka, as they would find the 7 i2 and Black Diamond, all there and would not be lonely. As soon as the Rush was out of sight the captain made the best of bis way to Victoria, ene NO FAVORABLE INDICATIONS. An Appeal for Workers in Every Calling in London to Strike on Monday. Loxpox, Aug. 30.—The indications this morning are not very favorable to the imme- diate settlement of the strike. A meeting of & committee of strikers, presided over by Jobn Burns, was held last night, at which im- portant action was taken looking to ii the strike A i this Somecliene une lo: Monday next unless the mands of the dockmen be conceded before that date. The final demands of these men are: Bix pence an hour for a regular day's work and eight pence an hour for over time, counting from 6 p.m. to 8 am. as the over- time hours; under the contract system the pay to be eight pence during the regular working hours and a shilling for over time, wo be employed for less than four hours, A mass meeting of workingmen has been called for Sunday at Hyde park. THE SITUATION BECOMES GRAVER HOUBLY. The manifesto is signed by all the labor organizations, including the stevedores, sailors and firemen’s unions, numbering 60,000 men, the securing ofa pension. Gen. Fairchild’s resolution in favor of marking the rebel lines at Gettysburg was laid upon the table. Other resolutions killed include those asking the government to furnish each post with a copy of the regimental record now in course of pub- lication; to hold future encampments at such times as will be convenient to pensioners after they have received their pension money, and requesting the government to furnish each ex- soldier-physician with a copy of the medical and surgical history of the war. pres hanced wel BOARDED BY THE RUSH.

Cage, deceased, SURGEON PORTER’S RESIGNATION His Acceptance of a Civil Post Said to Have Removed Him From the Army. Secretary Proctor last night accepted the resignation of Capt. Jos. Y. Porter, assistant surgeon, to take effect August 29. This case has attracted some attention in army circles nd promises to raise quite an interesting and important point of law. It will be remembered thas Surgeoa Porter was examined for retirement and found “qualified for disqualification” from ac- tive service on account of disability. He was then ordered from Jacksonville, Fla., to Jackson barracks, Louisiana, and immediately resigned. It now appears that he recently accepted an appointment on the state board of health of Florida, and it is held by the War department authorities that this act, by virtue of section 1222 of the Revised Statutos, effectually vacates his commission of itself. This section provides that an officer of the army on the active list ceases to become such upon the acceptance of a civil pos make the success of the men certain if they are prudent, Of the four original demands the men have conceded one, namely, to agree to being taken on any time of day instead of two fixed times only as first asked. The directors have conceded two, namely, four hours shift asa minimum and the abolition of contract work, the contractor being a “‘sweating” mid- dleman, The remaining point, namely, the extra penny per hour, the directors still refuse, THIS 18 THE REAL KERNEL OF THE DISPUTE. The furthest the directors will go is making two shillings the minimum payment. This on a four hour’s shifs would mean an increase of half penny per hour. The men will persist in demanding a whole penny. The wharfingers yesterday agreed to asix pence and — tions are progressing between them and the “ strike leaders for a resumption of work on the | city. hs dues eee een of New York wharfs and midstream. This, if carried | tro through, will checkmate the dock directors, for all small or middling-sized steamers which have hitherto patronized the docks will hence- forth transfer their custom to private wharfingers, Three-fourths of the men on strike will thus get work from wharfingers at the wages which the dock companies refuse, and from their earnings they can easily spare enough to support the remaining one-fourth. THE MEN’S POSITION 18 FURTHER IMPROVED by the attitude assumed yesterday by Lord Sutherland, the Peninsular Oriental com- pany’s chairman, representing all the large ship owners, He says they would long ago have come to terms with the men if allowed to do so, and that if the docks don’t the ship owners will transfer to other ports until they can build rative docks on the Thames for themselves, schems for doing this witha gepiies ct 800,000 pounds is, I hear, in acti’ ‘eparation, Pithe leaders of the strike Rave” just issued « manifesto entreating the whole trades of Lon- don to go out on Monday unless they yield by midday tomorrow. THIS 18 A FALSE MOVE and will either prove a brutum fulmen or, if the appeal is successful, will alienate public sympathy and endanger public order. The probable explanation is that ths socialists who are leading the strike are eager to play their last card and force an immediat» settlement be- unioz congress meets on Tues- battle royal in this con- endeavor to capture the congress organization. They want, there- fore, to rule the congress with the prestige of this strike accomplished. GOSSIP FROM LONDON.
