THE CIGARMAKERS’ SIRIKE, ORDERLY AND DETERMINED MOVEMENT." + The excitement yesterday among the striking cigar- makers—being the fifth day of the strike—was sume- what allayed, bat from the operations of the commit- wes of the central organization, as reported to that body, and. aiso from the reports of the shop delegates, it appeared that the movement had settled down inio a solld, vustness-liko fori, and that the steps hereto- fore taken by the sirikers would not be receded from, ‘the general aspect at this time is that they are likely to succeed, for it is pretty cer- tain that seyeral large manufacturing firms are oply awaiting the presentation of the strikers’ scale of Prices to accede to it, The strikers ridiculo tue dea of the Chinese coming in to supplant them, and, Instead of being at all concerned avout it, the bure mention of such a thing is cause for merriment, “Why,” said a Bohemian, in pretty good Engiish, “why should we, who have so much to do) with tobuoco, be troubled ubout a little pigtatly”” ‘Ab the meeting of the cevtral organizauon in Con- cordia Assombly Rooms yesterday aiternoon, Presi dent Stragser in the chair, a delegation of non-strikers from the jactory of Pobaisky, coruer of Maiden jane and William street, employing about forty-ive men, A PEACEABLE, wero ullowed to enter the delegates’ hall on the plea that they bud a sogtiev- ance tw complain of, Upon explaining, it appeared that it was an old aflair whicu bad aiready once been disposed of by the Cigarmakers’ Union.

They also request that \oy be allowed to have visitorscall on them in the wor shops, and that they be allowed to offer each culler one cigar, They also ask that the rule preventing smoking during working bours be abolished, and ulso that they be permitted to talk and sing while at work. This they say would probably be ail very well in a shop where five or six were employed, but where there ure 600 or 600 the coniusion cau better be imagined than described. An executive committec, consisting of B. Lichtensteto, C. Birschorn, A. Kaufman, M. Kind and F. Kerbs, was appointed to act in connection with the oMcers in preparing & statement of the facts relative to the workmen, to be furnished to the city press.

George R. McKeuzio testified that he had been in the employ of [. M, Singer, as business agent, fur twenty years. He corroborated the preceding wit- nese in regard to the provision made by the testator for Mrs, Mathews in bis lifetime, and exclusive of his bequests to her and bis children, On being shown two letters patent procured by the te: at Washington, for sowing machine improveme: and asked their probable value, the witness said that the improvemeuts bad never been utihzed to bis knowleuge, aud he considered that they were of no value whatever, It may be stated that theso letters patent are among the articies not inventoried by the admivistrator, ‘The case was again adjourned to the 24th ist, AN UNHAPPY HOME.
