STRIKING QUARRYMEN.

The striking quarrymen OF Wechawken met yes'er-
day at Donoghuos Hotel, IN the Bulls Head ferry
road The President John Padden, made an address
10 the society. He said the mon were not making on
an average eighty cents a day, and some were
making as low as forty cents. A majority
OF them had their families al home starving,
owing TO the miserable wages they received He ad-
vscd them IN very strenuous terms not to work at
the offered by the employers. This idea, he said,
oSgettin. Si2 for making 900 blocks was prepos-
tcrous Ho SAID that the sUclcty men were always
willing to go TO WORK, but they would not sell tho
blocks at these rates. He then went Cn to show
thet II was impossible 10 make eigbty-tve cents
per day in the best quarries considering the condition
were about two hundred workDgmen present. Mr.
furlong. who represented the German laoorrrs made
few remarks, IN which he stated that IN New York
city and Connecticut the working quarrymen were re-
specially treated The Street Commissioners OF New
York city were paying s65 thousand Tor pave
men;, while their quarry could furnish blocks at lhe
rate OF $50 per thousand, ana make good pront for
both laborsrs and employers, He begged OF them not
sell paving stones at the low rate offered. but
TO continue their work rs usual.
Secretary Michael Henry next made u few remarks,
stating that he glad tho laborers present TOOK
such an interest IN the welfare OF their brothers. and
he hoped they would hold out and fight the matter TO
the bitter end, when success would come sure

THE sUrRO TUNNEL.

The approaching completion of the
Sulro Tunnel has aroused the mine
owners of Storey county to action.
When the great bore" was projected,
o barren zone in the Comstock lode
had been reached, and the enterprise
met with general favor from the mining
companies. Nearly all of them sub
scribed for more or less stock in the
tunnel, and the State Legislatu~o and
Congress conferred certain privileges
on the protector of the great enterprise
Subsequently immense bonabzas were
discovered in the Comstock, railroad
was built from Virginia City Carson.
and the mining companies and railroad
company declared war against the Tun-
mel. Sutro was denounced as Il scoun-
drel of the darkest dye, and those who
had the hardihood to assert the rational
proposition that the drainage of the
Comstock by the Tunnel would insure
the working OF the lode to greater
depth than could possibly be reached
by machiuery from the surface, were
stigmatized as the bribed aud pur-
chased tools of Adolph Sutro.
Now change is apparent in the or
CANS of the opponents of the Tunnel.
all admit that great benefits will be de-
rived from the drainage of the Com
stock to depth OF nearly 1000 feet
from the surface. and meetings of mine
owners snd superintendent have been
held and committees appointed to con-
fer With Sntro and make terms by
which they can avail themselves of the.
great benefits to be derived from the
speedy completion OF the Tunnel.

No Trouble with Mexico Appre-

WAsHINGToN. Oct. Is.
Bumors of probable trouble with
Mexico or any disposition to occupy it

seems likely to result in the early
recognition of the latter by the United
States. 1t is understood that Mexico

each side. The territory between which.

miles, shall be guarded by military
