NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1878.—WITH SUPPLEMENT. THE STAKE BROKEN, Compromise Between the Third Avenue Drivers and the Company. SECOND AVENUE REVOLT. Beginning Abruptly, Progressing Feebly and Terminating Speedily. WORK RESUMED AGAIN. The general progress yesterday among the strikers ‘Was in. tne direstion of peace, Cali it truce, com- promise or settlement, the result was undeniably of » peaceable complexion, Only on, one line, the Secoud Avenue, was there a decided and marked movement toward hostility, and here the pro; of the strike Was 80 attonuated and indecisive that the men went back to work on the terms againat which they had rebelled. ‘'he outcome of the entire proceedings of the day was that there was no serious impediment to travel on avy of the city lines. The: were, of course, some inconveolences and de- lays incidents to mporary disorgunization ana ineffectual extemporized nelp, but they were not of Srcat moment aad were alewed to pass lightly in the Mutter of excitement which the strikes have occa- tioned, It is pretty sale to aver that there was either @ general nor partial feeling of insecurity, and ‘hat he efficrency of 1 Police and wl juppleinen- tary nid of the military were deemed sufficient to check control any disorder whieh the lawless, taking the troubles between the strikers a! spelr employers as an excuse, might choose to create. PRECAUTIONS OF THE AUTHORITING. There was, no dowvt, a seeming rel.xation 10 the rigttanee of the police, but it was more seeming than veal, They did not crowd the piatrorms of the run- bing Cars, but they Were on duty a convenient poinis along the avenues amd were evidently ready for ary Muergencies that might arise, But beniad them was Anowber force, which might at a brief notice ve vweiled to proportions capable of resisting and queil- vag bot merely @ riot in the street, but o/ dealing prety effectually With a far better organized uis- turbance, This was t! National Guard, which bad Sompanies distributed in the armortes of the respec- uve regiments, under a division order of General Alexander Shaler, In view of the almost assured termination ef the sirike last evening there was Some speculation among the officers and members of she Nations Guara concerning their detention in the armories, the general opinion beimg Uthat it was con- Sidered desirable to be prepared tor any trouble which might posstbiy arise out of the Kearney m meeting at Union square. To make the urrungements ‘more effeciual permission had been granted to con- Rect the urmories by telegraph with Police Hend- quarters, the miliary to bear the expense of the opora- von. INDIGHATION ON SECOND AVENUE. The excitement of the strike was ormpietely Bhilted yesterday from the Third to the Secoad Ave- bue line. When the arivers of the Third avence line ruck out boluly oo the previous aay their brethren on Seovnd avenue, with tho exception of a little ¢on- lumacy in the morning, were to be found at their posts aud the company were ruoning not merely the oruinary compietnéng, but an exira oumbor of curs, There bad been, they claimed, an uccession to their demwands,-,aud -they went to work on the understending, that they were wo receive $2, the old remuneration, for their day’s work. How- ever (he understanding came ubous, it uppeara that there was a mistake or misrepresentation sumewuere, Silver ihe Company Were deceitiul of the drivers were erroneously sanguine, anu when the day’s work was completed the company denied any arrangement on the $2 basis, and muiotained that the rate of pay- meat wae $175 lor tue duy’s work.

In consideration of the public convenience, und actuated by a desire to conciliate the men, I deemed it adviaable to m: the conces- sion.

Bondholders Generally Denominated as Lecherous Vampires, According to the reporter’s estimate there were about five thousand people present last night at the Union square m jog of Denis Kearney, As com- putea by the great sand-lot orator there were un- doubtedly forty thousand. They sarged about the Stand erected in Seventeenth street and stretched away among the aly Tecesses of the park. They vegan to assomble at x little after ven o’clock, filing the broad plaza and eddying about in little pools of excitement. Hoarse voiced boys ran through the crowd hawking @ baliad headed “Extra; Denis Kearney’s Thoughisin Rbyme.’’ To show thut Kearney bas abolished the grammar amoug other things there is ane in tho fourth verse rua- ‘ning, “The earnings of lavor is stole.** It was hardly necessary, however, for the fact to be demonstrated ‘m that way. Mr, Kearney’s oratory fulfils this con- clusion more easily, SOKNES 4ND INCIDENTS. The audience that cougregated around the sand lot Demosthenes and listened to perterved philippic was one characteristic of New York-—good bamored im the extreme and more ready to apploud than to fod fault—and willing to stand for an bour or two under ‘he bliuking lamps and in the bright moonlight to be amused. There seemed, however, to have beon a patent packing process inauguratod in the immediate victmity of the stand that interfered sadly with thoora- torical crumos of comfort cast to tue orator’s udmirers. In the hoarse thunder of voices that sweliod at times from every throat there was no small proportion of inveotive and noisy complaint. ‘The olastie properties of ribs were tested to tue utmost the first part of Kearney’s address was rendered almost inaudible awid the pandemoniu:n of crivs and straggies around the stand. Those on the outskirts took things more pbilogophically and comforta- biy, especially tho poticom: who were 60 well represented, Thoso distinguwhed foreign refugees of the communist persuasion who twiae the red flag around a lager beer keg and combine proflt with patriotism were in the densest pari of the crowd. To judge from their energetic remarks in broken Kuglish they were entitely in accord with latiorm above them, Now aud then discuasio: 1 flag fraternity and some ch the police were obliged to take stance proved irresistible, AN OPPOSITION ORAfOK.
