WASHINGTON, May II, 1870.
The Mexican Legation here has received the reso-

some parties have been engaged in transactions
which do not meet the appreciation Of the Mexican
government. In order to caution the public against
making any contracts without the authority Of said
government, with view to ALLEVIATE or transfer the
estate that Don Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna owned

THE CIGAR MAKERS STRIKE.

The Strikers Assume Threatening Tone
IntimidatiOns and Fnlse Statements the
Weapons OF Warfnre-The Manufacturer rs
Don't Bulge.
A new phase has begun to show itself in the cigar
makers strike. Not satisfied with attempting TO
coerce into leaving the men who still refuse to keep
at " ork and placarding as renegades their names
on bIackboards at meetings Of the unions, they now
threaten to shoot them If they do not join the
strikers. Some men left Gershell 4 Bros, No. SO
Maiden lane, yesterday, saying they were afraid to
work any longer, believing their lives in danger If
they did. Spies have been going among the work
men employed in the different factories Of Messrs.
Stralton, Schmitt Storm, No. 1s1 Maiden lane,
also striving to intimidate them into leaving. In
addition to this threatening letters have been writ
1T Is BY INTIMIDATION AND THREATS
the strikers are now seeking TO carry their point
They find all their representations Of justi1ablc
grounds for strike nave had but very little effect,
and that the promises held out Of success are dis.
credited. One Of their arguments is that the cigar
aacen IN wages ana That mad been
less they would have assented to the terms
p his ha y us OF the nnUn no
to agree to o penny's reduction IN wages without
the consent Of the union. Furthermore, Messrs.
ton, but said that they expected and were willing to
give more, and effect compromise to this end with
the managers Of the unions. Without any solicita-
tion they Voluntarily made an advance OF one dollar
thousand to their employees. After all
THE WHOLE THING IN NUTSHELL
regards the results OF the reduction in wages Is
easily told. TO most OF the cigar makers Monday s
a blue Monday, and they do not work on this day
and neither on Saturday afternoons. The whole re-
ductiOn would make difference with most OF over
81 so per week, and this, readily be seen, can
be more than trebly made up II the men will
work on Mondays and Saturday afternoons. Skill
iu workmen can make from eighteen to twenty-five
dollars week. Notwithstanding the threats it is
quite clear, however that the strikers are
, GETTING SICK OF THE JOB
They confess to having already expended some
5000, their own money, and it now seems that the
unions have TO impose an additional tax on the
members. They state that the cigar packers have
gone over to their side. This Is wholly false; One
OF the worst features of all is their In
gratitude. For instance an attempt was made
TO reduce the wages. This movement the
firm Of Straiton, Sclmitt & Storm most strenu-
ously opposed, and not only this, but were
successful in defeating the proposition, and yet
the main brunt Of the strike Is aimed at this
firm. 1t Is pleasant to know, however. that the
strikers cannot carry on the war much longer. 1t Is
believed that wise counsels will In the end prevail
and bring about an amicable compromise OF the ex.
listing dtifcuities. Meantime the cigar manufactu-
are as irm as at the beginning Of the strike.
