compromise by the Knickerbocker Ice Co.

pond, it was supposed the trouble was over.
This morning, however, when Supt Penni-

not only refused to work themselves for less
but prevented others who wanted to work,
from doing so. One man was assaulted and
another was about to be thrown into the lake
when, promising not to work. he was re-
leased. The strikers stopped the ice in the
channel and prevented its reaching the eleva-
tors and the stackmen were therefore stopped
Warrants were obtained but the strikers got
wind of it and left on the freight train, saying
thew would be back tomorrow.

ly sense of insecurity observable in every di-

fear that something will happen
before the anniversary of the Emperor's &C
cession to the throne, there is also a settled
idea, which is destined probably to be disap-
pointed, that the Gar will proclaim some
thing new on that occasion. The most import
ant fact connected with the latter expectation
is that very important state documents are in
