THE STR1KE OF THE MECHANICS AT THE
TREASURY ExTENsIoN.-The mechanics and
laborers on the u. S. Treasury Extension who
held their meeting at the Temperance Hail this
morning. reassembled at21s o'clock this after
noon to hear the report of the committee APP
pointed to wait on the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry-the officers being the same as at the morn
ing meeting.
The meeting was called to order by the Pres
ident, who stated that the committee were
unable TO get an interview with the Secretary
who, however, promised TO give them All au-
dience at nine o'clock to morrow.
1t was moved that the meeting adjourn to
meet at the hall at nine O'Clock to- morrow morn
ing and await to hear the report OF the COM
mittee.
To-day being pay day, many of the workmen
received their pay, and we understand that
they were informed that those who refused to
come to terms and work under the new rule
would be discharged.
Up to this hour we believe that but few of
them have signified themselves willing to work
on the terms proposed, and if the Secretary
does not accede to their wishes it is understood
that the larger majority will be out of work.

by the authorities upon the houses of i'll. flame

their girls with terrible penalties If they give
testimony as to the practices carried on at their
establishments. We hear Of one fellow at the
head of one of these ranches, who out
Aeroded Herod in the matter of indecency
in his programme Of entertainment until
the very prostitutes revolted

was one OF the features he proposed to intro
duce at his establishment; but the proposition
created an emeute amongst the female aboard
ers," and his female partner in crime alone,
but unwillingly, made such nude exhibition
Of herself In compliance with the demands of
THIS scounurei III brhal1 or his customers. The
keepers Of these dens have mostly been released
on bail to await trial. Maude Roberts (of the
concern 275 D street) is, however, yet in auod

her III business, has not yet procured bail for
her.
