A Big Strike Ended.

PITTsBURG, Jan. 3O.-The long
strike of the window glass workers is
at an end and after seven months of
idleness men go to work as soon as
furnaces are heated. The manufac-
turers andworkers conference commit
tees reached satisfactory conclusion
yesterday afternoon, but were in St.
sion again to-day arranging the de-
tails of the agreement, and did not
adjourn finally until this evening.
While both sides made great conces-
sions, the terms at which work is re-
sumed largely favors the workmen,
who will be paid last years wages
until April 1, when sliding scale will
go into effect, and wages thereafter
will be governed by card rate on
glass. The scale will be subject to
changes every four weeks and the
agreement will last until July 1, and
if found to work satisfactory will
probably be adopted for the ensuing
year. The lumber factories have al
ready started fires, and it is expected
that by February 10 all the factories
will be operating. By the resumption
$500 men will be furnished employ
ment in this city.

SOCIALISTIC DISTURBANCES.
VIENNA, Jan. 31.-Appprehension
of further socialistic disturbances has

measures by the ministry. By virtue
of a law of 1869 they have published
an ordinance which proclaims kind
of martial law in the district of vi
emma. In KarTenburg and Wiener
Neustadt special measures have been
adopted also, with reference to sus-

suitable reply to the address was
made by Gladstone amid great ap-
plause. Gladstone received deputa-

They were introduced by Joseph Arch.
champion of the agricultural laborers.
and by Broadhurst and Burk, radical
members of Parliament. They urged
an extension of county franchises. In
replying, Gladstone said their delega-
ton had done much to dispel the doubt
as to the desire of the people of Eng

play in the further treatment of the
question by the executive or by Con-
gress, the secretary feels it incumbent
recommend to Congress to abstain
from any immediate legislative action
until the report of the commission,
it. The secretary further says the
question to be carefully, frankly and
honestly met is, whether the pre-
pared meat products that are exported
from this country are injurious
to the public health. We believe
they are not and have so represented.
Should it appear that the meat pro-
ducts of this country ale as we be-
ieve them to be, not deterious, but
promoters of health, 1t Is b.
lieved that those friendly nations
which have put forth the decree
of prohibiting the importation of
our meats would annul those DEGREES.
If, however, in the face of clear proof
elected both at home and abroad, that
our products are free from disease, or
communicable germs of disease, proof
which might be furnished to demon
stration by actual inspection as
well as supported by knowledge
of the precautions which surround the
raising and packing industries here,
any nations with which we are on
terms of intimacy and amity should
by legislation discriminate against
the trade of this country rather than
protect the health of their people, it
would then be the province
of the executive to call the
attention of such nations to
the provisions of treaties with conf
dent expectations that these treaties
will be respected. 1t seems very plain
that our policy, in any event, should
be to prove our meat products whole
some: this and the absence of
trichsna in this country, and partic-
assrly N our army and navy, where
meats are constantly used, goes
