Cxicaco, Nov. 7, 1873. Since I telegraphed the HERALD relative to the effect of the panic upon Uhicagol have learned some facts which, occurring since the date of my despatch, put a less hopeful view upon the appear- ance of things. The North Chicago Rolling Mills Company has shut down on its steel works, on two of their blast furnaces and on two of their iron mills, and probably will not open them during the winter. This action throws nearly 1,000 men out of employment, who, unaided, have no hope of passing the winter without distress. The com- y has not wholly shut down, as it is employing some 600 men in ope- rating one iron mill ana a_ blast furnace. It hii to keep tnis force constantly at ‘work, though circumstances may require the sus- Reena. of all operations for the rest of the winter. company will do what it can to alleviate dis- ‘tress among the operatives, and with that view ‘Will alternate the men, using one gang during one ‘week and another the next. There has been a Feduction in the price of iron, and, in consequence, the wages of the hands have been reduced about ten per cent. The managers of the company state that this curtailment has been brought about by the annulment of a large num- ber of contracts and the fi of in orders. When the panic came the company had m hand suMcient number of contracts to keep the entire force active for several months, but most of the railway companies withdrew their orders, alleging an inability to pay for them if they Were executed. The railroads are making only Decessary track repairs, having decided to aban- don all track extensions and such new sidings as could be dispensed with. Iiearn also that the Union Rolling Mills Com- pany, whose works are located in that portion of the city known as Bridgeport, will close its steel works this week. This will take employment from about 100 men, unlese, the pomipaae: hopes, it will be able to find work\for them in the tron de- at present writing, ieela ment. The com Bat it wil’ be able te Keep ita. tron mills in operation during the entire winter. Wages have been reduced about filteen per cent, but the men recognize the necessity for the reduction and enter no complaints. Meeker’s iron and steel works at Joliet are under iui! headway. Fifteen hundred men are on the pay roll, and only a slight Teduction in wages has been made. It is hoped that the fires will be kept 2 all winter. Generally the situation remains unchanged. No unusual suffering is apparent among the poor. The banks appear to be in excellent condition. Pork packing, Our mammoth industry during the winter Wonvhs, promises to be largely carried on. —_— THE CRISIS ELSEWHERE. DISCHARGED CANADIANS GOING HOME. ‘The trains on the Worcester and Nashua Rail- road just now are crowded with homeward bound Canadians who have been thrown out of employ- ment in Massachusetts on account of the hard ‘times. REDUCTION OF WAGES IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. ‘The Granite and Tilton Woollen Mills and Keyes & Co.’s cotton mill at Tilton, N. H., have reduced the wages of their operatives ten per cent., but run the usual number of hours for the present. REDUCTION OF TIME IN THE COAL MINES. The Scranton (Pa.) Times, of November 7, says:— * “A reduction of time in the mines o! twenty-five per cent goes into effect to-day in the works otf all the mining companies of this valley.’ REDUCTION IN RHODE ISLAND PRINT WORKS, A twenty per cent reduction in the wages of the employés of the Oriental Print Works at Appo- naug, R. I,, has taken place. With this reduction it is expected to keep the machinery in operation all winter. COAL MINERS’ WAGES REDUCED. The employés at several of the large coal mines at Youngstown, Ohio, received notice on Wednesday of Feduction of wages. The Welsh and Scotch miners propose to strike. The German miners generally accepted the reduction. FOUR HUNDRED MEN OUT OF EMPLOYMENT. ‘The rolling mills at New Albany, Ind., have been obliged to suspend operations. The union men refused to accept the reduction which is going on all over the map ecna ep the consequence is four men are idle and their families conironted with destitution, 1 YES REDUCED. RAILROAD EMPIO’ The Pittevurg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway Company have reduced the hours of labor in their shops toeight, and the wages of the men em- ployed there ten percent. Orders have been re- ceived to stop work on all new lovomotives, COOPERS ON A STRIKE. Some of the coopers of Titusville, Pa., are ons strike. The proprietor of one of the barrel facto- Ties reduced the price ten cen r barrel, owin; tothe fact that the refineries fixed. the price of barrels at $2 50-.a reduction of ten cents each.

The Butlding Strike—Most ot the Bosses Giving the Old Wages—Action of the Hod-Carriers—-The Strikers to be Sup- Pported—General Depression and Pros- pective Distress—The Idle Women. During the past week the condition of the labor- ing classes in reference to employment has not on the whole grown worse. The reduction of wages in the building trade proposea by the employing masons, with reference to masons, oricklayers and hod-carriers, to take effect from the 1st instant, was not firmly insisted on by all the bosses, It was unanimously resisted by all the labor organizations concerned, After a slight struggle most of the employers have now con- ceded the old rates. No bricklayers or masons are reported as having been put at work at the reduc- tion, those jobs where the old rates were refused having remained without these classes of me- chance. i TRE HOD-CARRIERS. On some buildings laborers who do not beinee the eccieta were employed. Some o! these subse- quentiy demanded the full rates, and left work when they were refused. Yester afternoon s meeting of the General Council of the several hod- carriers’ unions was held. It comprised delegates from all the organizations of this city, Brook- lyn, Williamsburg ana Jersey City, and represented & constituency of 8,000 laborers. Mr. Gallagher oc- cupied the chair. The subject of labor and reduced ‘wages was very fully(liscussed by numerous speak- ors,expreasing the unanimous determination of the meeting to resist the action of the bosses. Reports were recetved from each organization giving the factsin regard to all the jobs throughout the three cities. From these it appears that, with very few exceptions, all the buildings will from this morning paying the regular wages. While the attempt of the contractors to take half a@ dollar per day from the small pay of the laborers was freely condemned by the delegates who ad- dressed the meeting, all counselled entire absti- nence from force or threats of violence either towards the bosses or the men whom they may in- duce to try hod-carrying below the regular rates. MONEY IN THE TREASURIES. It was stated that in the general fund and the separate funds of the several lodges the hod car- riers have og $50,000, and they Jee} able to take care of any of their members who may come to need assistance. Accordingly a resolution was adopted by acclamation to pay each map who may be idle in consequence of the refusal of the bosses to pay the full wages $7 per week outofthe general fund. The belief of the prominent delegates appeared to be that be- fore the end of the week all the bosses would sbandon the effort to cut down wages. OTHER TRADES, ‘Within the last week a very small number of coopers have left work at sugar refinery, in consequence of a prop reduction of ‘wages. ese, however, form but a small proportion of that large _ trade who are idle or have only partial employment in conse- quence of the depression of the sogar interest owing to the financial pressure. A similar condi- tion of things also exists in relation to nearly all the manufacturing industries which in ordinary times furnish work to many thousands of our popu- lation, male and female. appears from the notes of HERALD reporters, who have recently visited many of the large establishments, with very few exceptions business is found drooping through want of financial facilities, lack of com- mercial confidence and inability to make requisite collections, The great commercial and manufac. turing interests of the metropolis are disturbed and parti paralyzed by the effect of the panic, whic! riginating in the reckless speculations o so-called nkergs who investea the sav- ings of pradent depositors in moonshine nterprises and baseless securities, With the prod- ucts of our great country more abundant than ever before, with the bi ce of foreign trade in our favor, commerce languishes and labor stands idle. But the natural buoyancy of our people ren- dersit impossible that this shall long continue. We have no shrinkings of the amount of our national wealth in commodities, and our energy must soon find means to revive trade and start tle wheels of industry. PROSPECT OF SUFFERING. While the depression of business continues there must, a8 soon as the small hoards of the operative classes are exhausted by the resistless demands of the winter season, be great and general distress among classes who usually are iree from actual deprivation of the necessities of life.

ROBBING A ROOM MATE. A Dishonest Cuban Ma! Of with $300. On Saturday evening Mr. J. H. Pigeon, residing at No, 474 Vanderbilt avenue, Brooklyn, called at Police Headquarters, corner of Court and Living- ston streets, and stated that he had been robbed of $300 in currency. He suspected that the rogue was a young Cuban, @ student, named Louis Zan- zea, Whose parents are highly respectable residents of Havana. Louts, who was decidedly iast, had occupied the same room as the complainant in Brooklyn, He was infatuated with the mimic stage, and expended all his available funds with considerable ease, He owed a bill for board and abvsented himself for several days. On Saturday morning he called upon his landlady and re- quested permission to remove his trunks. This was denied, and he then asked to be allowed to change his shirt, which was granted. While Louis was perfecting his toilet in Mr. Pigeon’s room, a cab, upon the box of which was seated a man in livery, drove up in front_of the door and inquirea for “sefhor Zanzes."’ The festive youth responded to tho summons, and, getting into the vehicle, was driven off, but not before he had paid $20 for his board. In the evening Mr. Pigeon returned, and was Piped to find that $300 had been abstracted from ink, Detective Williams was given the case. to peak up, and i ares that Zanzes had Jor Havana on board the steamship of OD Saturday alternoons : their relief by some patled Mexioo TEE GOVERNMENT WORKS. How the Depression Affects the Employes Under General Newton—River and Harbor Im- provements —A Chance for Con- gress to Aid the Laborers Commissioned to investigate the effect of the labor crisis upon the workmen employed by the government on Hell Gate and other river and har- bor improvements, under the charge of General Join Newton, of the United States Engineers, & reporter of the HERALD found this engineer officer at the army building, in Houston street. On stat- ing the object of his call the General remarked, “Lam glad you have called, Only the other day Captain Huer and I were consulting how best we could arrange the work to give employment to the men, and we are in doubt what to do,” The Gen- eral stated that on THE HELL GATE WORK they have only 130 men employed, and as the last Congressional appropriation of $225,000is nearly ex- hausted, he is considering the propriety of reduc- ing the hours or reducing the number of work- men, rather than to stop the work and throw all out of employment at a season of the year when they most require money. Whem asked If the ap- propriation was increased by the next Congress on assembling could he, without detriment to the government, increase the working force, the Gen- eral expressed the opinion that if he had the money he could put to work in one month about 300 additional men, and two months later 100 more. The monthly disbursements for Hell Gate work he estimated at about $16,000, and he finds that about the middle of the current month there will remain only about $45,000 or $50,000 of the last Congressional appropriation of $225,000. Tn answer to a question, the General said ne be- Meved if the appropriation was increased to the neighborhood of $900,000 per year the labor of re- moving the Hell Gate obstructions could be com- pleted in three years and a halfor jour years. The work here at Hell Gate 1s underground, and, of course, can be done as well in the winter season asin summer. The wages paid are $2 per day for laborers and $2 25 per day jor miners. A few boys are also employed at from $1 to $1 25 per day. THE FORTIFIOATION WORK is of such @ character that but little of it can be done in winter; but early in the spring additional men could be employed. Of the last $40,000 appro- priation there remains only $7,000 or $8,000. The payrolls represent about $8,000 per month, so that he has only suficient 1unds to run one month, and then probably 85 or 100 men must be discharged. The above work is done by day's labor, under the immediate supervision of General Newton. ‘There are @ great Many other works in progress or contemplated, by contract, much of which could be executed in the winter as well as the summer months. Among them are THE PASSAIC RIVER IMPROVEMENTS, is now being worked, but there are only about a dozen persons employed. Probably fiity more could be profitably employed, THE HUDSON RIVER IMPROVEMENT. The work of dyking the Hudson River at Albany has been progressing lor sume time, and over bere has been expended thereon, Last year leneral Newton aske this work, but only $40,000 was appro) riated, and it is believed tuat nearly. all of it has been ex- hausted. General Newton estimates that fully 100 more men cvuld be employed if the appropriation were increased. Tne dyking of the river near Rondout fs a work very much needed, and is in contempiation. Thirty or forty thousand dollars was asked of the last Congress for this work, but was not appropriated, If the money was forthcoming it would give em- ployment to about fifty men. BURLINGTON (V7.) HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS. The work of improving the harbor of Burl: on, Vt., has been in progress ior years on a year! Propriation of from $25,000 10 $30,000. Lust year Congress was asked for $30,000 for ordinary contin- gencies, but they faitea to make the appropriation. 4 $60,000 were set spars, tor this work iuily 100 or 160 men could be employed. ROUSK’S POINT HARBOR yrs The improvement of Rouse’s Point Harbor by the erection of breakwaters, &c., is a work very much required, and it is contemplated, but no appro- riation has yet been made. General Newton be- eves that from $80,000 to $180,000 could be judi- ciously expended in this work, and employment given to fully 100 men. THE ELIZABRTHPORT IMPROVEMENT is another contemplated work, consisting of dyk- ing, dredging, &c., to improve the channel between the New Jersey shore and Elizabetnport. There has not yet been an appropriation made for this work ; but the appropriation of $80,000 to $180,000 would give employment to as many as 150 destitute laborers, who have no means of providing for their families this wimter. All the above work can pe done in the winter season as well agin the summer, while there are other works either in progress or mapped out that conld be commenced as soon as tlie Irost leaves the ground, that would give employment to probably 1,500 laborers and mechanics, WHAT CONGRESS MIGHT DO. On the meeting of Congress that body will doubt- less be called upon to consider means to relieve the country from the present depressed state of things, and they should not neglect to adopt all the means at theircommand to give employment to the hundreds of thousands who, if they do not ob- tain employment, may become beggars or crimi- nals to prey upon the community, or become burdens upon the counties where they reside. There are, a8 Will be seen from the above, which only represents @ small part, however, great public works urgently required for defensive and com- Mercial purposes, and Congress op properly consider the propriety of making liberal appro- ay theretor, The work must be done some ime, and what better time than this year when so many who are willing to labor are thrown desti- tute upon the streets? The supply of laborers being gees in excess of the demand wages will no doubt fall twenty-tive per cent lower than they are likely to be jor years, consequently all public works done this winter must resuit in a@ large saving to the government, while commerce will reap the ad- vantage of the early completion oi the work. Liberal appropriations, as suggested by General Newton, would enable him alone to give employ- ment to the following additional force at less ex- ense to the government than if the work be de- jayed from year to year:— on fen. Hell Gate obstructions. ... Passaic River improvements. Hudson River improvements (Albany) Hudson River improvements (Rondout Burlington (Vt.) Harbor improvement Rouse’s Point improvements.. Elizabethport Harbor improvements. Total who could be employed by Newton..... From the above it requires but little calculation to discover that on the ground of economy alone there is no better time to push to completion at once the necessary pubifc works. The wages of laborers will Lita a drop fully fifty cents per day. This would @ saving in Gen- eral Newton's jurisdiction alone of $500 per day, $3,000 per week, $13,000 er month o1 twenty-six working days. Estimating that on all the great national works in the coast defences, the navy yards, on harbor ard river im- provements, under liberal appropriations for works absolutely needed, twenty thousand additional men could be employed this winter and spring at fifty cents per day less than the nsual rates of Wages, the saving to the government by such a course Would be $10,000 per day, $60,000 per week, $260,000 per month of twenty-six working days, or $3,120,000 per year of 312 working days. The Navy Yard—The Force Employed— Little To Do and Consequent Priva- tion—A Humane Proposition—Naval In- telligence. As there isa great deal of suffering in Brooklyn among the working classes, consequent upon the general derangement of trade, a representative of the HERap visited the Navy Yard on Saturday, and, in the course of conversation with several promi- nent officials, ascertained that the present strin- gency had little or no effect in regard to the em- ployment of persons in the various departments. It was understood, however, that several hundreds would shortly be discharged, not on account of the prevailing embarrassments, but simply because of the absence of work. In the steam engineering department there are about 400 men employed. ‘This force has neither been increased nor @iminished for some months, but it seems that from the con- struction bureau and other orders have been is- sued to dispense with the services of a large num- der of people. Now that the cold weather is approacl ng, the same opportunities for work that prevail in summer time do not exist, since short days and bad weather necessarily interiere with the prosecution o! certain kinds of labor, To counteract the depressing influences likely to en- sue from this state of affairs, several admirabic Suggestions have been made. But among the nu- Merous methods devised to meet the emergency hone seems more prudent and hamane than that which tends to an equal distribution of the funds set apart for the various descriptions of work in the yard, so that all may not suffer want and privation who have hitherto enjoyed the benefit of their industry. At the resent time the heads of numerous families have en thrown out o' aie Waar and the chieis ot departments are daily Importuned for work. In view of the situation it is proposed to employ two gangs ‘of men, say on alternate days, so that, while me may suffer temporary inconvenience, others ‘will thereby be relieved from absolute want, There are about twenty-five hundred men employed in gay: 4 pees NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, ‘NOVEMBER 1), 1873—TRIPLE SHEET.

Late on Saturday afternoon an order was pro mulgated in the Navy Yard, Brooklyn, dismiss- ing at least seventy-five per cent of the men em- Ployed therein, All knowledge of the order was kept from the hands until the latest moment that it could be put into execution, At noon hints were dropped that some step of this kind was in contemplation; but those who seemed to have the “inside track” thought they knew better, and that nothing of the sort would be attempted. In coming to this conclusion they were, however, disappointed, jor when the usual hour (hall-past four) jor knocking of work arrived, a large atch of the men were informed that their “heads had been taken ojf’—in other words, that their further’ services had been dispensed with.

Twenty biockmakers are discharged, and six are now con- sidered sufficient for all the business necesgary to be done in their department.
