The Democratic Press on
the Great Strike.
IMPROVEMENT IN THE GENERAL
SITUATION.
NEW YORK. July q.

Francisco mail Of the 18th instant,
which was blocked for three days at
Erie, arrived this morning. Ii COM
prised more than 1000 . letters. many
of which will be forwarded to England
by steamers sailing tomorrow. The
railroad strikers and communists are
becoming even more disbeartened by
the press comments than by the mill
tary and police discipline. Their lead
ers fully expected the general support
of their party by the Democratic pa
pers. The World from tie beginning
has been earnestly outspoken in de-
nunciation OF their course. To-day
again il SAYS the strikers m stop and
r~ejoices that troops are on the scene to
prevent instruction in Maryland and
PENNSYLVANIA. Itadds: "The United
states Government has erred. if at all,
on the side of patience and forbear-
ance since it was summoned To do its
constitutional duty in Maryland and
Fennsylvania. The time has come for
it to act and it must act with decision
and to such purpose that our children's
children shall remember the lesson"
The Sun also, though recognized as
the workingmen's organ, says: The
present disturbed state of the public
mind is not fitted for discussions of
the questions which underlie the labor
agitation That must be postponed I'M
til the normal condition of things Is
restored and peace is no longer I'M
periled by violence. Then both sides
can be heard fairly. The first duty
now is to put an end to the existing
strife. so that reason may resume its
sway without or prejudice.
Superintendent Taussey said to-day
that all trains on the New York Cen
trail and Hudson Railroad were run
ming on time, and there was no trouble
at n point. Trains on the Canada
Southern Railway were to have com
menced running this morning.
Freight is taken to all points and pass
age tickets are likewise issued. A
committee of engineers of the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western road
this morning waited upon Superin
tendent Rearsoner and made a propo
,ition TO go to work at once at the EN-
ployers' terms, provided the fremen
be allowed to do the same, and that the
company give them their old wages as
soon as The times get better. The
proposition vas laid before President
Sloan and he Immediately agreed to it.
The Times has the following sum
mary: The great railroad strike is
nearly at an end. Reports from all
quarters indicate an early adjustment
Of existing difficulties, and in many
places compromises or concessions
have already been made. Travel has
