Labor N Otes.

The Western Nail Association met
yesterday in Pittsburg, and decided to
close the mill for month from Mon
day next.
The telegraph officials at Pittsburg
say they know nothing of the proposed
strike of the operators on Monday next,
and number Of the operators also pro-
fess ignorance of "any intended strike
in the near future" Thomas Hughes,
Secretary of the Telegraphers' Brother
hood, says: "The report that tele-
graphers' strike is imminent is unfound-
ed. We have not decided to demand
an increase in wages or anything else,
and if any demand should be decided
upon it will not be made secretly, and
no attempt will be made to take snap
judgment on the telegraph companies. !"
A telegram from New York says the
Western Union Telegraph Company has
adopted new code of rules, one of the
most important being the following :"At
all Independent Western Union offices
which may be required to keep open all
day Sunday, nine hours actual service
in the day, six days in the week; and
seven hours actual service at night,
seven nights in the week, will constitu e
n days work. All service in excess of
the above named hours, including Sun
day, will be regarded as extra, and will
be paid for at regular salary rate, on
the basis of seven hours to day.
Some of The operators think the above
order was forced from the Company by
the fact that certain concessions had
been demanded by the Brotherhood Of
Telegraphers, and that n general strike
was feared but the Complny's officers
say that " no such demands have been
made, and it is not necessary to issue
the order now, because its operation
affects the acc UNITS for the current
month" The subject, they say, has
been under considerat on by q commit
tee for three months.
The me Sengers of the Mutual Dis
trict Messenger Company, in Boston,
numbering nearly sixty boys, are on a
strike, for what does not clearly appear,
unless it be on account of the discharge
of one of them on Tuesday night. AT
the Western Union Telegraph messages
in Boston are delivered by this Com.
pany, and the strike occasioned some
delay in the business Fifty new boys
were secured yesterday in the strikers
places.
A nine weeks lock out at the cigar
cite and tobacco factory of William
kimball & Co., in Rochester, New
York, ended yesterday, nearly all the
old hands returning to work.
AT a meeting ofthe Spinners' Union,
at Fall River, Massachusetts, last even
ing, resolution was adopted authoriz-
ing members to refuse to work over
time to make up time lost by stoppage
on account of holidays, break downs or
anything that interferes with the ordi-
nary running of mills.

Cape May.

The effort to provide Cape May with
such attractive entertainments as shall
make IL summer residence to be de-
sired and thoroughly enjoyed, is seen
in the exceptionally fine and artistic
musical program covering the entire
season. This program includes three
monster musical festivals, the first of
which will occur on the 2lst and 22d
inst, at the Stockton, the rehearsals
being now in progress at Philadelphia
Institute, in Philadelphia, and a series
of sacred coucerts on every Sunday al
ternoon and evening of each week dur
ing the summer at the same hotel.
These concerts are given by the cele-
brated Gerlnania orchestra, of Phlla-
delphia, Mr.. Charles NJ. Schmitz, lead
or The initial concerts Of The series
were given on Sunday, the sth inst, in
the grand pavilion lust erected on the
Stockton lawn, and were of the highest
musical excellence. The program was
selected from the riches of modern
masters, Mr. Schmitz drawing freely
from Mendelsshon, Auber, Haydn, Ros-
sini, Weber, Donizetti, Wagner,
Beethoven, md others famous in the an
nails of music and song
Assisting in this magnificent enter
tainment, and giving distinguished
cat by their presence were the prima
donna, Mile. Zelie de Lussan, Signor
Ferranti, Max Heinrich, baritone, and
George.D. Woodill, cornetist. Thous-
ands gathered at the Stockton to listen
to and enjoy this musical feast, and de-
parted with regret as the last notes OF
Gung's cen Avant' ioated out
upon the air. The programs for each
succeeding concert will be equally rich
and abundant in selection, and will at
ford equal pleasure and delight to the
vast audiences which gather on the
broad auditorium covering the lawn.
The entire arrangements for all these
musical entertainments at the Stockton,
are in the hands of Professor Gosche,
famous as the maestro who discovered
and developed the genius Of Theodore
Thomas. His name, therefore, is sut.
ticient to insure their success, finish ard

INJURED ON THE RAIL.
A COlOred Man Struck by Della
ware Western Engine and Badly
Hurt,

| 1AUrks
Engine No. 3, attached to the Della
ware Western passenger train which
arrives in this city about 2.l5 O'Clock,
struck coored man named Robert
Taylor, near the culvert passing under
the tracks at Hedgevile, yesterday af-
ternoon, and injured his leg in such a
manner that it is thought 1t will have
to be amputated.
The man halls from Virginia, and is
about SO years of age. He was walking
along the track when he heard the train
approaching. He turned to look, but
thinking the train was on another track
resumed his walk without fear. He
arrived at the trestle over Shipley run
and started to cross, when the engine
warned him of his danger by sharp
whistles and the ringing of the bell, but
the man was slow in moving and be-
fore he could get out of the way, he was
struck in the back aud hurled down
the embankment against fence. When
struck, the train was running at the rate
of six miles an hour and the engineer
supposed the man would get out of the
way after being repeatedly warned of
his danger.
The train was stopped, the injured
man placed in the baggage car aud
brought to the depot in this city, and a
physician summoned, who discovered a
bad fracture of the right leg just above
the ankle, and other bruises about the
head and body.
Superintendent ID. H. Connell did all
in his power to relieve the man, and Sc

costs. When the wagon arrived, how
ever, his friends refused to let him go
to the almshouse, and he was sent to
his boarding house on Sixth street near
Walnut. The man has only been in the
city short time, and made living by
doing odd jobs around the wharves and
other places.
