M TEE LOOS OUT IN THE IRON TRADE. Let night, a meeting of delegates from various trades'. societles was held et th e easier Hotel, for the par- pose clinking into exmeidaratiou Mee present lock•oat h; the ins bads clitafterdaks. TM eseelisg waa celled is consequence of the issue of s Marne whisk Oohed Hsi, "believing immediate notice in ins guesitis ea miry trade society throughout the kingdom, to old wiz heMbree is the iron trade nueoessfully to re net one at the um* Mapeadose Misch ever yet made by combined metal upon Limos., the, pressed meeting is celled to COD ilk the best UMW to be adopted to aid the men now Shrews est of employmmat.' The following tries were represented at the meeting : ima engineers, Waldemar, carpenter (12 so efiesiirri"d rieklayen, roams (5 ladlm), bookbinder _bah zert painters (6 societies), pluton" platie-workses, Nsotosea Associatioo of Miners, United Glum Gutters' Society, briar makers, printers, bras trades, machinists, Lawless Wed end shoemakers, bookmaker City shoemakers, ' boiler makers, coopers, shipwrights, and bootelossra. Altogether there wwppnse about 200 delegates present. The meeting was aiteoded ..by a &pular. from the executive council of the Brierkj-bill National Articled= of Ironworker', consisting of Mars. Ailthis, Davis, and Hobson ; and also • depute- New *era • the Millman' Association , Mesas. Laughlin sad Biddlentoon Mr. Meedonsid, prosideat of the Ns timed Miners' Armistice, was oleo present. Mr. G. Porn, having been Galled to the chair, opened the proceediop by stating that this meeting was of great importance, and wee called for the purpose of hearing the statements of delegates from the re from South Staffordshire and the mill men from the irandistrieta They were aware that capital and labour were in deadly conflict in the iron weds. The men believed that the masters were acting not only on the principle of reduction of wages, but tar the purpose of destroying the combination of working men. government had given that the privilege of combining together for the protection of labour. but the mas ters did not "prove of thatoombinatdon, andthey had stated ' that they would do all they . could to destroy it. The man rid they only wished to maintain themselves in their proper social position. So far from the present combinations being their work, it was really the work of the masters. After Pang a history of the. efforts made by the South Satlcedebire sad the Gateshead executives to got the =ahem to meet the men, and their having refused to support the North Staffordshire men when they struck, be thought the conduct of the masters most reprehensible in locking out the whole trade, them condemning the innocent with the guilty. Not only was he convinced that the masters bad ao justification • for locking' the men out, but he bed ao kesitatioa in saying that he thought them guilty of an illegal conthirsey spirt the rights of the working men, sad if the legislature. did its duty it would pass a inure which would - make • proosediag fraught with so much misery to thousands of iniscorat persona impossible. No doubt this tyrannical arm was shoed at the very exist ence of trade societies ; they had made sip their minds to the question to en rasa sad they had not only themselves together in England, but had invited the Welsh masters to join them, who would indeed be will ing enough to do so if they would go a point further, end continue the lock-out as long se the ironworker.' trade society existed. The operatives had done all they could to avail a strike; they were quite prepared to meet the mastere, and discuss the matter quietly, and abed sought, time after time , for an interview, bat it was denied them. He thought that the masters would fled that it would be a very dangerous thing for them to challenge the mu to a downright struggle in such a ruse as they now had, and he contended that if they succeeded they would only be the means of driving the bone and sinew of the country • from it s shores. lie denied that this was a combat between labour and capital; on the contrary, it was the tyranny of capital over labour, and the effect of a de terioration upon the part of the masters to keep the work ing Iran in the lowest possible position. He should call upon Mr. Allkina, one of the deputation from Brierly-hill, to address the meeting. A very noisy diacurion took place at this period of the proceedings, in consequence of Mr. Howell, Mr. Odgers, and others milling in question the legality of calling the meeting as one of trades delegates, and several of those present attempted to address the chair upon the point, but in the noise and confusion that ensued they could not obtain a barge. At length Mr. ODCIRS was permitted to speak, and complained that so notice had been given of the intention to hold the meeting to the trades council, who ought to have been consulted in the first instance. The Ceramic./ explained that the meeting had been called at the instance of the conductors of the Beehive sewspaper, which was the organ of the trades societies in the press, it being thought that immediate action was ne cessary. Some little dimatisfactioe was ermined that the initia tive had not been left to the trades council, but eventually barman y was restored. Mr. Axxinte said that they were sent by their fellow workmen. He would 'tether have been here under a dif ferent aspect. They were under a dark cloud, but did pot expect all sunshine. There was a time when unity antra the iron workers was unknown, and • great deal of trimly was carried on by their masters. A few took the matter into eoesideratioa, perhaps a doer at first was the most. They held their council privately, put a few peace out of their own pockets, and distributed handbills to:wform their fellow workmen that they were simply trying to get little more for their labour. Their occupation was such as to pee/duos extreme exhaustion, and combined with little food was hurrying them to on arty grave. Some seven or eight iron-works gave the advance, and about 800 men mine oat. But public sympathy was rather withheld then, because they did not sufficiently respect themselves, but so improvement had now taken place in that particular. They struggled then for 21 week., and received about Be. • week. The ilium:eaters then gave way, and sot only inizeued their wages, but gave them additional privileges. Sines then unity among them thrived wonderfully. He ad mitted that many grievances had been remedied by the ironmastere, bat at length they began to be very appre hensive of the union,t_andithey began to cry through the pre for the iroomasters to ise their society, and now they were desirous to dimin . sh the wags of the men, and they believed also that they were endeavouring to (raah the union. The North Staffordshire men were on strike, and the delegates sanctioned resistance to the reductioc. The izonmuters then called • monster meeting at Birmingham, and pegged • resolution to lock out all the ironworkers of the kingdom unless the iron workers of North Staffordshire went to work. The men's executive, seeing the immense importance of the proceed ing, and the extent of the misery that would be occasioned, pawed a resolution calling . on the North Staffordshire men to go to work again, but they refused, and the delegate told them that they would not. The consequence was there had been • lock-out, and thousand' of men, with their wives and families, had been reduced to the verge of starvation. He concluded by sayiug that he should be happy to answer any further questions. Mr. HOBSON, the secreterr cf the South Staffordshire Association at Brierly-hill, said that the lock-out was con sidered as one of the most vicious proceedings that could have been adopted. finny people in their own district con sidered that they had shown the white feather. How could the South Staffordshire Association make those of North Staffordshire resume work when they had funds to support them, and therefore they could not look upon the conduct of the iroornasters in any other light than absolute tyranny. He could inform the meeting that even if no aid were given by other trades' SIROCIStiOIIe they bad money enough to keep them out as long as in 1863. They now came for sympathy and support to their fellow workmen, having subscribed 2,0001. in their time of pros perity to relieve other branches of trade. It was the opi nion of • great many that the real object of the Masters' Associatioa was to abolish the mire, but it would only make it stronger. Mr. Dane, the treasurer of the Brierly-hill Fund, said that the real reason of the resistance of the men was the desire to put an end to the sliding scale, which was an abomination to them. They wished to live respectably on repeatable earnings ; and he did not think that 25e. • week, which he had earned for many years, sufficient to sup port a man and his family respectably. The CRAILIWII reed a letter from Mr. J. Bans, which stated that, in nonce of the lock-out in the north, he was preveuted from ing present. They had at present upwards of 4,000 of their members ranging from Sheffield to Newoutle-on-Tyne. A deputation, formed of one dele gate from each large work in the north, had had a lengthwisd interview with the iroorriasters to-day, which bad been adjourned till Friday next at York, sod it wee neer sary for him to remain at Gateshead, to receive delegates from Smith Staffordehire. Should the lock-out continue, it would require the assistance of every true unionist. Mr. BIDDLISTONI, • delegate from the Millmm's Assoeis tion, West Bromwich, said that up to the present the mill men had bad nothing whatever to do.with the struggle, either in itscrigin or proper, but were suffering greatly from the lock-out. Mr. Libros, mother delegate from the milkmen, stated Outdor many run the milkmen's wages were governed by that of the peddlers, but when the puddler. got the advance of Is. per ton, the Dusters said that they mast do the beat they could with respect to the milkmen which led to the formation of the association of miller°. The puddler., however, had their entire sym pathy. They had no intention whatever to cause • general lock-out. As million they would act honourably to the masters and themselves. With refereoce to the cause of the look-out the body of delegates at Brierly-bill had done all they could to conciliate the masters on the 14th of January. and on the next day the millmea of West Bromwich held • meeting and agreed to accept the teems of the paddlers. They had been lcoked out from no cause whatever, but they wished tomes. , to every body of men eodeavoarieg to maintain their rights, and to raise themselves from serfdom. They felt sympathy with the puddlerv, and would stand by their side in every legal proceeding they might adopt. They viand everyeree .to bettor his position. The man who laboured ought to have a proportionate share of the (rite of his labour. and he was quite sore the men had their umpatby, and trusted that soon a brighter day would dawn for Disked's work. . mm. (Cheers.) He sionsluded by saying that 1,800 mill uses bed been thrown out of employment by the lock-out. Mr. THOMAS CONOLLT, of d mend :—" the , etire StOGIMII/0111/, That this meeting el legate from the Lee dom trades' societies, having baud the statements made by the deputation. from the executive council of the National Aesociation mf Ironworker, and from the IlMmen's Ara elation, Lot opinioo that the efforts made by the councils and beleptes of the irooworkiere to avert the threatened XRE .EXP: look-oid were amplyirsfifeletft - to abet /E taikjolklg the Iron' condom' pons, and all NIPS la On= to have required from the men • end a jewel lookaut in the face of th ose effor ts is • unwarraotable, unjust, end deserving of the strong condemnation of all dames." Be condemned in the stroeg litre tho conduct og the frenasistere ia refusing all ~mason,. and endeavour's(' through the cruel means of stery the women and children of thaw who bad bad noddy( atever to do with the strike, and never contributed a farthing to the funds, to entree the workmen of North filleffehlre into the so ospience of theirl terms. He said that no conqueror at the heed of his legion, bad ever dictated such cruel terms to conquered people as bad the iron masters' Alllooilitiioll to - the men of North Staf fordshire, and he asked how could the miss of the North Staffordthire men be Judi) visited upon the mailmen of West Bromwich ? He psephested the complete success of the strike, and said that there could be no greater traitors to the country then three who drove the bone and sinew of England, to another shore, and so weakened the resources at the empire. He thought that U the madders gave way It would greatly strengthen their position in any future struggle. Mr. Gasman:, of the National Association of Plasterers, seconded the model:, and observed that to look out, men not responsible in any shape &sae= for the meant strug gle was and and Inhuman, end &dimmest° the nation. All that could be done by the men of South Sta ff ordshire had been does to bring the s truggl e to a settlement, and the conduct of the Gateshead meoticie had really been most humiliating. It was quite safficient for the South Stafford shire men to withdraw their support from the North Stet fordthire men on strike; that wee punishment enough, and it was a disgraceful this; for the tronmasten to say that they would not believe them unless they went direct to North Staffordshire to supplant the men on strike, and be could arum them that they could never put an end to trades unions by oppression of this character. He implored the masters to give way and save the net misery which must otherwise moue to women and children. Mr. Genial PUIPPS, a delegate from North Stafford shire, said • that the men had been out on strike for nine weeks. He belonged to the Gateshead district, and they had been out off from the sympathy of both execu tives. There were about 1,000 on strike, and though they were very sorry to be the cause of suffering to others, they had no intention to dame a look-out. Ledo out were com paratively new, and ware not se much aimed spinet strikes, as a gai nst trades naiad. He had never knows • look-out in the bon trade before the Leeds look-out, sad because they enooesded is It the MOWS is dose of the same medi eine should be tried on every occasion when say dispute arose. The responsibility of the strike did not rat entirely on the locality, but wee first sanctioned by the executive. There wee a conference on the 'abject, and had the votes been properly taken the North Staffordrbire men would have won. At the ISM time, the South Staffordshire executive advised them to make a proposition for a reduction of 6d. The only support that 900 members had hrd for nine weeks was 850/. the only e ff ect of which was to mike them more firm, an d had never aeon men more determined than they were. He complained' bitterly of the conduct of ,the Gateshead executive, of which Mr. Kane was the president, tie tW 3 that Mr. Kane and the executive sanctioned the strike, and they were after. wards told by him that they were to go out to try the strength of the masters, and were then to go in again, when they replied that they bad come out with the sanction of the executive, and they would stand out on their own. He gave a deplorable account of the distress to which many men, with their wives and families, were already reduced, but stated that no determined were they, so strong in the juiv tice of their cause, that they would not glee way, even if their very bads were taken from under them. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously, but a demand woe made on the part of some present that I only the votes of delegates should be taken, which, how • ever, was not listened to. --- - • • Mr. COIL; seoretary of the bronfoundera' union, then moved the following resolutioa:—" That the magnitude of this aggremion of combined capitol upon labour, evidently made not eo mach from the local strike in North Staffordshire so from a drake on the part of the iroomesters to destroy the combinations of the men, calls for • corresponding amount of resistance on the part of the kedge societies, and that this macho[, therefore, rsoommeads every trade society throughout the kingdom to at once vote, without waiting for any formal deputation, a aura of mossy from their funds, also to plata a Weekly 111 V on their members ; the 11.1210111411 thus voted and raised to be sent as early as possible to the executive councils of the men te al.jortly lookedouk" The resolution warn seconded by lir. Liner's. Mr. Swgeriso pointed oat that as the resolution stood all help would be withheld from the North Staffordshire men on strike ; and on his motion, seconded by Mr. Watimo, words were added by which the relief collected by the weekly levies was to be sent to the North Staffordshire men on strike as well. This warn carried unanimously, sod it was understood that money would be collected immediately and sent to the district by each trade union independently until some organisation had been agreed upon. On the motion of Mr. lAMIIIRT, secretary to the London ironworkers, seconded by Mr. Dunrrotc, secretary to the bookbinders, the thanks of the meeting were given to the conductors of the Beehive newspaper for their prompt action in the matter ; and another resolution was agreed to to the effect that, having heard the statement made by the delegates from North and South Staffordshire, the meet ing strongly reoommended the reconciliation of the two districts. A vote of thanks was then pawed to the Staffordshire delegates, and to the chairman for his conduct in the coheir, and the meeting *operated. The proceedings did not close until 12 o'clock. (Mow OUR WOLF CORSESPONDI:I7.) In South Staffordshire the belief is prevalent that the masters in the north of England will act long keep their works closed. The workmen who promulgate statements to that effect allege that they hays received communications frees certain of their fellows who are Dow employed in the Newcastle district, encouraging them to entertain this view. Upon certain of the works it is alleged the operations of important shipbuilding yards depend, and that eo pressing were the neceentke of some of those yards before the lock out took place, that, in the words of the writers " the iron was being dragged out of the works nearly red hot." But the nonmasten in South Staffordshire have perfect confidence in the good faith of the masters in the north of England, and do not believe that the arrangement come to at the last greet meeting of the trade in Binning ham will be departed from on either side. By that arrange ment north and south became one in enforcing the universal observance by their men of any determination in respect of wages upon which the masters generally should ready.. The muter' do not, it is said, see soy means of termi nating the lock-out by any rearrangement of the wages wale. They arty that the men are now and have for some time past been receiving a much higher rate of wages than the price of bar iron, by which price that rate has always been understood to be regulated, and that therefore they would be unwilling to submit to any alteration the effect of which would be to reduce the amount of remuneration which they are now receiving. Therefore they believe that to commence any negotiations with a view to a settlement on • wages basis which would be satisfactory to both sides would be only to complicate matters. The men generally, it is now known by the executive, are not Prepared to work on &lower rats than that which now prevails. As • body, the men believe that they ought not to be paid less than 10s. a ton for puddling, whatever may be the price of iron and they have confidence in the power of their union to help them to swore this rate, or certainly to prevent much et durum upon the present scale, which is at the rate of 9s. 6d • rate as compared with pest years which is regard ed by the masters as very high, and Is. higher than the scale by which wsges are usually regulated. Yesterday was the usual weekly gathering in Wolver hampton of the ironmerters of the West Midland district on Change in that town. In the interim between the quarterly preliminary meetings of the trade, when the members of the Iroomastele Annotation assembleand discuss the question of future prices, and other matters which may be regarded as the legislation of the trade, the affairs of the association are managed by the chairman for the year (Dow Mr. W. 0. Foster, M.P.) sod • committee of gentlemen who have been nominated to fill the office of chairman in suonsesion, one of them (sow Mr. Walter Williams, jou.) acting as the hon. secretary, misted by a paid secretary. Yesterday they bad received • communicatioo from the hot. secretary of the Association of the North of England Ironmasters, communicating the result of the meeting be tween the committee of that body and members of the Gateshead executive of the men on the previous day in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. It was to the effect that the North of England muter, had promised the executive of Gates head that a general meeting should be called to consider the prompt condition of affairs ; and it desired that a ge neral meeting of the masters of the South should be called, to be held in York on Friday next. The communication said nothing whatever as to what would be dis cussed at the meeting • but • statement had appeared to the e ff ect ihat the Nash of Eng land uonmasters ware prepared to send piddled bars to North Staffordshire, to enable the masters there to restart their works. This statement, the com mittee believed, had emanated from the men, as they did not think that the masters would conceive that the scheme was practicable. It waseertainly not thought to be so by the oommittee. The scheme, it was shown, was tried in Booth Staffordshire by a section of the mute r there during the lee strike of the peddlers, and it failed. Many more difficul ties, it was felt, would be in the way of such an arrangement, in which the masters of different districts might combine to wee each other in this way. If the masters in the north of England should really contemplate such • step, it was thought that so soon u they knew the result of such a mein sure, when it was trial in the south of Staffordshire, they wouldseeiteiropeacticability. It was, however, the opinion of the committee that the strike of the man in North Stafford- siarraonlw of trade societies in Loedon it should not be resolved to support the North Staffordatire men very liberally. Intimation I. understood to bore been convoyed to South Staffordshire from certain of the men to this effect. The peddlers in North Staffordshire, it is smarted, will not remain oat on 4e. a week, but, it is added. they will not go to work se long aa they cam obtain The. or 20e. a week. As the probabilities are all whilst ouch liberal relief being forthcoming, the oommittss foal pretty oonb dent that cause for the loek-out will moon terminate. If the decision of the meeting in Leedom should be to support the North Staffordshire men tea large eataak then the era- THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 16, 1865. mt See sse no of an early termination snoop. by men going into - ?forth ehdordslike and darting the trir emes wk prospect iclithe peddlers there refuse to work on modern' terror.

The promises were entered during the night of the 19th July last year, and property, principally consisting of cash and bank-notes, was stolen, hut so clue was discovered to the perpetrators of the crime until rue following month of October, when the pri soner Mary Anne Andrews appeared to have changed one of the stolen cheques at the shop of • trades man at Margate, giving • false address. This led to in quiries, and as the result the whole of the liaisons's were taken into custody. The evidence against the prisoner Rogers and the two girls consisted principally of statements made by them to Mr. Saunders, the superintendent of police at Margate. It appeared that upon some question. being put to the prisoner Rogers, who occupied a room with Nranbeer, he said that the latter had told him that " he intended to go to Mr. Robinson'. some night," and asked him to go with him, but he refused. He went on to tell the officer that on the night of the robbery Yahoer got up and went oat, leaving him in bed, and when he returned he showed him the booty, and asked him to Mks a portion of it. He said he et first refused, but the sight of the mosey was too great a temptation to him, and he ultimately took half the gold sad four of the 51. notes, but Ise denied all knowledge of the cheques. As regarded the girls, it appeared that when Ekes was in onetody she told the superintendent that it was any wrong to say that she was the perms who cubed the cheque, for it was her sister, and she added that when she came back she fainted. The other prisoner, Mary Anne, seemed to have admitted to the officer that she bad mailed the cheque, but said that " Bob," meaning the prisoner Van beer, bad asked her to do so, and she had not the least idea that it had been stolen. Mr. fitiunders then said to the pri soner Mary Anne that he understood that part of the money had been concealed in the mould of a garden pot in her husband's house to conceal it from him, and she said it was true, and asked him how he bad obtained the informa tion. The prisoner Rogers appeared to have subsequently told another story respecting the mosey, and to have stated that Vanheer represented to him that his father had died and had left him a considerable sum, and that this was a portion of it. The learned Judge, at the close of the case for the pro seentios, expressed his opinion that there wee no use against Rhea Andrews ; and he then addremed the other prisoners, Rogers and Mary Anne, and said se they had no connsed, he thought it right to tell them, after the state ments they had made, that either of th em was at liberty to call their fellow-prisoner, Vanheer, as a rause, it they thought proper to do eo. Mary Anne Andrews mid she should like to have him examined on her behalf. The prisoner Vanheer was accordingly sworn, and in answer to a question put by Mary Anne Andrews, he said that he gave her the cheque sod inked her to get it changed for him, but she knew nothing about it being the produce of a robbery. The learned Judge then summed up, and the jury re turned a verdict of Guilty against Rogers and Mary Anne Andrews, and Acquitted Eliza. Elise Andrews was than charged upon another indict ment with feloniously receiving a portion of the produce of another burglary, to which Vanbeer had pleaded guilty. In this cue it appeared that the house of a lady named Emu, of Margate, was broken open on the night of 27th November, and a ciesiderable quantity of plate an other property stolen. From information that was re ceived by the police they went to the residues of the pri sour, Elise Andrews, and found in her possession a shawl that wee emcee the articles stolen from Min Evens's. When she was asked bow she came to have this shawl, she at first said that she had bought it in London ; but upon her sister Mary Anne, who wad present, telling her she had better speak the Math, she began to cry, and said that the had bought the shawl of Bob ('t anheer), and had given him 3e. 6d. for it. The jury in this cane again returned a verdict of Guilty against the primose nu Andrews. Mr. Sause the uperintendent of police, informed the court, in mower to inquiries made by - the learned judge, that the primmer Vewheer was sass cephae, and he had gone Iran the union to various dtaaYss, and he had no doubt got into bad company. All the burglaries were committed with gnat lageenity, and so true was left that was likely to dated the guilty parties. The prisoner I/whew wee taken into custody in a rather simpler manner.

With repid to the PM they were both married to is. speotable men, and they appeared to have become acquainted with the other prisoners by their having lodged wish them.
