NEW YORK.
The Erie Railroad and Its workme

The Erie Railroad and Its Worknen.
New YORK, February 1.-THE report
that the workmen on the Erie railroad
have not been paid their wages for two
months, and that a strike is threatened
in consequence, is well founded. There
are nearly three thousand men EN-
ployed in the shops and around the
depot whose wages vary from $50 to
$3.50 per day; the latter amount how
ever, is only paid to a few frst-class
workmen, the average rate Of wages in
the shops being $500 per day. The
company, it appears, have become
alarmed at the determined attitude OF
their employees, and promised to settle
the matter satisfactorily by paying of
all hands within day or Two.

Orders for coal still continue meagre.
Business of all kinds is extremely fiat,
and more especially that which is strict

papers throughout the region, with the
exception Of one, are beratug the lead

Association, attributing the stoppage
and consequent misery entirely to that
combination and calling loudly upon
members TO renounce il now and for
