$3.50. The strike commenced Thursday

old wages. WHITEHEAD, the contractor, re-
fused, but offered to pay old and expert
enced hands so for short time longer. The
men refused this and the strike extended
along the whole line of contract Is. The
men say they are determined to hold out,
and were stopping the steam drills, after
which they intend to come west, stop the
cars and steam shovels, and seize the whole
line, which they intend holding till their de-
mands are acceded to. The contractors
have represented the situation to the acting
lieutenant governor, who has telegraphed to
the minister of justice. The disturbance ia

are embarrassed. It is suggested that Col.
Smith be authorized to send sufficient
force of Manitoba volunteers to the scene to
break up the strike. No answer is yet re-
ceived from the minister of justice.
