At Chemnitz, in Saxony, one of the most i'm
portant factory towns in Germany, there are at
the present moment 5000 engineers and IRON
moplders on a strike for areduction in the hour,
or labor from twelve to ten q day. For some
time past the factory workers OF Saxony, like
those of Switzerland and Belgium, have carried
on an agitation for ten hours working day un-
der the leadership Of prominent members Of the
international. The success OF the mstaI work.
ers Of Verviers and the victory Of the Newcastle
strike acted as q stimulus upon the engineers
and ironmOulders of Chemnitz, but the emplov-
eJs turned deaf ear to their solicitations.
Having gone through the usual preliminaries TO
gain their end, the reduction of the working
hours to sixty week and Is per cent. extra paw
for overtime, without convincing the employers
OF the justice Of the demand, strike was resolved
upon a fortnight ago, and 5000 men struck.
Monster meetings were held I'm the town and
neighborhOod, at which the action OF the strik-
ers was unanimously indorsed and the obdu-
rateness OF the employers denounced. Two resO-
lutions were unanimously carried, one pledging
the workingmen of Chemnitz to agitate with ali
the means at their command for an Imperial
ten hours law for the whole Of Germany; and to
keep strict watch that the public peace and
order should not be disturbed under any pretext
whatever. This resolution has hitherto been
strictly adhered to, though, according 30 the
statement OF the strikers, the police authorities
have given provocation to improvise q riot, and
would be too glad to put the strike down by
main force. six firms have turned their baets
upon the masters union and given in to the men.
and the others have offered to reduce the work,
ing hours to II day, which, however, the men
will not accept The police authorities of Leip-
sic have prohibited public meetings in favor OF
the strikers TO raise mOney.-LoHfOn Time, 1ltb

A Prison Romance.

The Chicago Evening Post: Every prison has
its romance, and that Of the Penitentiary at
Kingston, Canada, is worth recounting In
1872, near Toronto, the serving man of a Can

sum Of money which was in the house. After
killing him the wretch also slew the house,
keeper. He was arrested, and at his trial i'm
plicated girl of fifteen, named Grace Marks,
who was living in the house an accomplice
alleging that she knew of the murder of the
master before that of the housekeeper took
place. Her story was that he threatened her
with death If she gave the alarm; but as she had
been on intimate terms with the murderer. IL
was discredited He was hanged ahd she was
sentenced TO the penitentiary for Hfe
Almost thirty years have elapsed, AMI she Is
still a prisoner, no more a blooming girl but an
old woman, pale, sad, silent, permatuTely gray
From time to time some newspaper correspon-
dent, visiting the Institution, hears and publishes
her story. There is talk of q petition for her
release; people say, tits strange, tits passing
strange, It's pitiful, etis wOndrous pitiful and
then the matter dies away. Even ifthis woman
were guilty, lifetime OF imprisonment might
be held to have assaulted her crime, and She
might be set free to die. There would be little
else for her to do In this later world Where
she lived and the cry Of murder went up are now
acres Of brick and mortar and miles OF dusty
streets. Her kindred are dead, her crime forgot

familiar. sltr ..t .aE
