They show that Mr. Newell declined to enter into or in uny way authorize any agreement. “The truth of the matter scews to be that the sheriff, Nels Morris, the packer, and a county commissioner signed a pledge, which was given to the strikers, that the eight objection- able men should be removed within: sixty davs, but they had no authority to do so, and will not be able to carry out their contract. The strikers are very conservative and ex- press no opinion on the stato of affairs, ex- cept to say that they have been more faithful to their part of the contract than the parties who signed the paper that ended the last strike. Hopes are entertained ef dy and amicable settlement, whiehi is much d sired by the men, though they still insist that the only tern s which will induce them to re- turn to work arc the removal of the eight ob- Jeetionab'e men, The situstion in the yards of the Lake Shore railroad in this ci i changed.” The regular passenzer trains a s running as usual; but an el 1 bloc of freight traflic has occurred.
