THE STRIKE.
The Movement Not Yet Abandoned-The
Strikers only Waiting for Expected
Assistance to Renew the Contest.

NEW YORK, June 28.-The strikes ot
a portion of the trades continues, but the
proceedings of the men are devoid of in
terest- The metal workers confess thai
at least One-third of those engaged in the
strike have returned to work on the ten
hour system, but they say that early
next week they viii have abundant
funds and that the men who have gone
to work at ten hours win all then strike
again with more determination than be-
fore. The men in Hoes shop who went
back to work at nine hours are expected
to be among the number.
The workmen in the Continental Iron
Works, who resumed work on the ten
hour system, are reported as out again
already.
The employers of the Central Execu-
tive Committee are preparing to issue
tracts to workingmen, explaining the
situation, in the hope of convincing the
more reasonable. The chief object OF
the Employers Union is not the defeat
of the present strike, which they think
nearly ended, but the adoption Of meas
ures to prevent its recurrence in the fu-
ture.

ENGLAND,

LONDON, june 2S.-The statements oi
Earl Granville and Gladstone, in Parli-
ament last night, announcing the deci-
sion of the tribunal of arbitration on
the indirect claims, forms the subject oi
the leading editorial articles in the
morning journals.
The Times says that the decision oi
the tribunal is eminently satisfactory TO
all Englishmen, and the Americans
ought to be grateful TO the arbitrators
who have proved themselves true bene-
factors tO both England and America,
and the man who rescued America from
discredit is Charles Francis Adams.
The Ne,Us says that the result of the
indirect claims controversy is a great
triumph for the firmness and patience of
the British ministry. Society has now
an example fSy the employment of-a
peaceful tribchal not too complete to
superce5e the work Of the sword. The
-Net0s also says that Minister Schenek
deserves credit for his course during the
negotiations between the two govern
ments. Other morning papers likewise
rejoice,
A Geneva dispatch saysthat the meet
ing Of the tribunal yesterday was one OF
the most important ever held in Geneva.

now fully in court, and that il may be
taken as a necessary consequence that
the famous indirect claims, II not dis
tinctly withdrawn so far as by agree
ment of either side, that they are prac-
tically out of the court Theexac point
of solution is, that each of the arbitra-
tors shall give a written opinion on the
indirect claims, which will thus be for
mally shut out. A later dispatch says
that the judgment Of the court ON the
indirect claims is not TO be given to-
morrow, but that il Is given already.
The tribunal has stated in effect that the
claims are of the exact natsfe of those
presented by the United States govern
ment, and could not be admitted to COM
petition as subjects for damages between
the two nations. The United States
sustains the responsibility of bringing
these claims before the court and receiv-
ing Judgment on them England gains
the point of having them formally ruled
ont. The United States formally ac-
eepts this Judgment as the valid and un-
impeachable opinion of the court, and
thereup0n the British agents formally
filed the English argument. Every
thing was most definitely and satisfsc-
torily settled. The arbitration goes on,
and both sides are content with the
result

The OKSTULGEE and other Indians
five nations complained yesterday at
Washington, through their chiefs, that
they gave up their old homes east Of the
Mississippi for new west OF the great
river, and now their farms are about to
be overrun by railroads, and they them
selves expelled. Spectators and thieves
get bills through Congress only to rob
the Indians, who say they originally
owned the whole country, and now hold
only a little spot, which should be
spared to them. Grant cried about it,
no doubt, but the railroads must be
built. Moreover, these Indians killed
the very last Of the Mound builders, the
bones of half million of whom, we are
told, fill single trench in Arkansas. 1t
is might that makes right. We of the
South have been learning that lesson.

THAT UNIVERSITY,


1t seems that our Memphis brethren
let down when DR.. Tchenor went away
to take charge of the Alabama College,
and that Nashville will secure the prize
and location at that point Of the Baptist
Theological Seminary. Rev. DIR. Jones,
in the Nashville meeting, said that there
was hardly any doubt about the location
of that institution there, provided twen-
ty-five thousand dollars additional,
which would make the subscription oyei
one hundred thousand dollars, could be
raised between this date and the first
week in August, at which time the
Board of Trustees would visit Nashville
to investigate the matter.
The Nashville papers say the twenty
five thousand dollars viii be produced.
