the result was to throw many hands out
OF steady employment. He said he thought
that the cost of building and labor had
advanced fifteen per cent during the last
twenty years. The mems demand is for fifty
one hours, instead of fifty-six and half, in the
week, at wages one shilling more in amount
per day. The masters he says, view the
subject simply as question of supply, and he
believes the demand of the men is not war
ranted in justice under the existing condition
of the building trade. He reckoned and cal
culated pretty confidently on being able to
prove this assertion to the arbitrators if the
court was appointed. He dislikes lockout
just as bad as he does the strikes, but is CON-
PEELED, generally, not to object. The mems
unions and masters are still determined to
uphold their resolves.
WHAT THE MEN SAY.
The HERALD reporter, having bid Mr.. Plum
kett adieu met three operative masons. They
were seated in a small public house. They
declined t~rgive their names, as they were
afraid of the consequences of communicating
to the press. They said that in the year 1853
their wages was five shillings sterling day;
in 1860, six pence day more; in 1861 it was
seven pence sterling an hour, and in 1865
eight pence an hour.
The reason of the present strike, they added,
is the dear rate of living in London, the long
way they have to travel to outside jobs, and
the cost of conveyance, unless they choose to
incur loss.
RESOLVED AND HOPEFUL
There is no fear said the masons, of men
being brought into the city from the country,
as the operatives are better off in the rural dis
tricts than are two-thirds of the masons be-
longing to the society in town.
The men are sanguine OF success. Their
organizations are financially strong, and
helped from the treasures Of the other trades.
They demand nine hours O day and nine pence
an hour, and have adopted the motto, ''No
Surrender
PRESS OPINION.
The London Times, editorially, considers that
the result of the trade disputes will be an in
credible increase in the price of the products
with which England supplies the world, and a
vast loss to Great Britain. 1t will make
coal and iron DEAR and, as a consequence,
England loses her present advantages in hel
| resources for industrial production.

THE VIRGINIUS HUNTED DOWN.

WASHINGTON, June "a, 1872.
Positive information has reached me from an un-
doubtedly reliable source that thu Spanish war ves-
sells have strict orders to seize and sink the Ameri
can steamers virgnius and Edgar Stewart wherever
they may he found outside OF neutraa ports. Thus,
II the Virginius were to, leave Puerto Cabello.

which are lying I'm wait for her at that port The
instructions OF the Spanish naval commanders, 1t is
said, admit OF a wide construction, and the vir-
gnus is liable to capture as out Of the
reach of the guns of the Venezuelan fort. The
commanders OF the Spanish war vessels are only
so far limited In their instructions as to avoid
armed conflict with neutral Powers.
Letter OF tho Captain Of tho Virginius->
The Chase by Spanish War Vessels
Tho Virginius Leaky and Bound to
Leave Puerto Cabello for Repairs.
As will be seen by the following letter OF the cap
tain Of the yirgnius addressed to a gentleman of
this city, that steamer is in a leaky condition, and
being unable to make the necessary repairs at
Puerto Cabelo, will have to leave for some other
port where she can be placed in a seaworthy
condition.
PUERTO CABELLo, May %, 1872.
MY DEAR ST. arrived here with tie Virgnius
about six days ago. having been ON sort OF a
cruise. &C, for twenty days. When we sailed rom
Aspinwall we were followed by the Spanish war
ship Pizarro. We soon left her, however,; hut upon
our arrival at this port we found the iron.c!ad
frigate Arapides, and the next day our old friend
the Pzarro made her appearance, having been on
the hunt for since day or two alter another
Spanish man-of-war arrived (the Tornado, but
sailed again In couple OF days. The Spaniards
have been raising hi generaly on our account.
having demanded from the government authorities
that the ship should be delivered mp to them, she
being nothing but n pirate, &c. Upon the refusal
OF the government to do this they then threatened
to cut her out OF the port. The Governor imme,
diatey had his old rattletrap Of a fort manned ana
q guard placed alongside the ship, with orders to
fire into any boat approaching the ship. In fact.
the people have behaved in very pucky manner,
as the Spanish ron-clad could have blown both town
ana castle to blazes In five minutes The fun of the
thing Is that we have no COAL nor Is there any In
this place, and 1t will take MS at least a
month to get any from So. Thomas. Besides, the
ship IL leaking and before being OF any real use
will have to go into dock to repair. The nearest.
dock to us is at Martinique, and shall go there
from this port, but probably not before six weeks.
am yours sincerely, FRANK BOWEN,

At FIRST blush, and upon the immediate

was assumed AS almost certain that the
