The Great strike Not Yet Over.
SUMMARY OF THE SITUATION LAST

NIGHT.
There Is but little news concerning the
STRIKE further than the gradual resumption
OF business by nearly all the various trunk
lines throughout the country. Vice Presl.
dent keyser, OF the Baltimore aud Odio road +,
returned 10 Baltimore last night and reports
q gratifying condition of affairs along the
line as far west A. Columbus. Last night
there was slight demonstration by BUSH
whacBers, who fired into train on the Par
kersburg branch, but without iufiicting any
Injury. With this exception everything is
recorded as being quiet and peaceful -.
The pennsylvania coal regions have not yet
resumed their activity. The presence or a
large military force mas had the effect o
checking any riotous demonstr atoms, bu
the temper of many of the people still re
mains unchanged, aud but little has yet been
accom- plished towards pacificdtion. No bio I'd
has, however, been shed, aud some of the
railroad companies are moving freight with
out molestation. The conference between
the boatnen and shippers at Cum oefland
Yesterday rec ulted in no conclusions on he
dlfference of fifteen cents per ton. Tue
