THE PRINTERS STRIKE.


The printers who strike achieve yesterday
decided victory by compelling the Ecening Post job
Office to take again the striking compositors at
former rates OF wages
On last Saturday night the compositors in the Eren
ing Post job Office notified their employers that they
intended to strike on Monday If the proprieors in
sisted upon enforcing the contemplated reduction from
the established rate of pay. conference was had
with Mr.. Henderson, of tho Post and with Superin
tendeni Bosgs, OF that ofnce. On Saturday night the
struck. Messrs. Henderson and Boggs made
ovortures to four of the old hands, asking
them to work at an advanced rate beyond
old prices which Offer the declined to accept
When the compositors went to the Office Monday to
be paid or to their amazcment they found half dozen
policemen stationed about the counting room. The
printers express themselves being naturally very in
dgnan at this unnecessary display Of force as none
Of them entertained the most remote idea of at
tempting to break the peace Mr. Henderson had a
conference Monday with some of the men and tried
compromise matters with them but his efforts
Intellectual Yesterday there another conference
the result Of which was that they returned TO wcrk at
old ra'es
The feeling among the printers is that the other
adjustments throughout the city Will be obliged to
come to terms with the strikers The printers argue
that II the employers wish them 10 keep out OF trade
combinations bosses must their part do the same
but If capitalists combine against labor workingmen,
matter of course, obliged to enter trades
unions in selfdeence. They say that master
printers will lose more money IN two weeks strike
than would suffice to pay for more than year the
amount of the difference between new and old prices
