WASHINGTON, June 25.-It is to be
hoped that the Ohio Republicans who
have been trying to send Keifer back to

with fOrtitude. One Of Keifer's friends,
who kindly enables the Ohio people to
hear in advance Of an impending misfor-
tune, says that Keifer will, in a few DAYS,
address a letter to his constituents, IN
which he will thank them for the mani
festations OF approval they have extended
to him tor his course in Congress, and for
the disposition they have shown
to put him again in nomination.
To save them from disappointment.
and the embarrassment which later de-
clinatiOn might cause, he will, it is said, in
sist that his name shall not go before the
District Convention in August. The rea-
son given is that his close attention to
public duties has deprived him of the op-
pOrtunlty to attend to his private affairs,
to catch up with which will take at least
three years of close application.

LABOR VICTORIES.

The Striking Shoemakers at PhiIadel-
phIa Compel the Manufacturers to
Give In.
PHILADELPHIA, June 25.-The strike of
the shoemakers is practically at an end.
Four manufacturers, who held out on
Tuesday night against the increase of pay
asked for by the welters, to-day signed
the wages scale agreed upon by the
strikers executive committee. and be-
fore noon every striker had been ordered
by the union to return to work. This
settles the sh0emakers' strike. so far az
the welters are concerned, but there NAV
be other complications arising out of the
failure OF the manufacturers and their
hands to agree upon a scale of wages for
next year in another direction. The de-
mands of the machine hands were beino
considered to-day by the executive
committee and may be the sub-
ject of consideration for several
days before any decision is arrived at
Should the manufacturers refuse TO agree
to the decision there may be trouble and
possibly another strike. As matters stand
now, however, there is every reason to
believe that no serious difficulty is likely
to occur.
