A CRUSHING DEFEAT.
Collapse of the Tanners Strike-A Decision
That Comes Too Late.

That Comes Too Late.
SALEM, MASS, November 29.-The
great strike of the tanners and curriers' OF
Peabody and Salem, which began on July
IL, with demand that 50 hours consti-
tute weeks work, was officially ended
Saturday, when the various assemblies of
the Knights of Labor of the two places
met in mass meeting and declared the
strike OIL, The men were advised to re-
turn TO work wherever they could get it.
The surrender was most complete, every
point at issue being yielded, but it comes
too late tO be of much service to the
strikers, the great body of whom have not
only lost their Jobs but will now lose even
the small pittance they have been reCeiv-
ing during the strike from the District
Assembly of the X. of J.. They ask to be
permitted TO return to work ut the old
terms, but, except in the case OF 4 few
skilled men, this is now impossible, rs the
tanners have been running with nOn-uniOn
men, and the manufacturers will adhere
to the plan mapped out in the first place,
and refuse to place themselves IN the
hands OF the Knights.
1t is n severe blow to the organization
in this vicinity, and the coming scramble
for work will make it still more difficult
for the Knights and UniOnists to hang to-
gcthcr. 1t is estimated that Only about
100 of the several thousands in Salem and
Peabody will secure work in those places
for some time TO come. This will cause "A
good deal OF suffering. Already many ap-
peals have been made to the OverseerS of
the Poor for aid, and many of the families
Of the idlers will be dependent entirely up
on charity.

GENERAL HAZES.
Senators and Congressman Discussing the

Senators and Congressman Discussing the
Stone and Benton Cases.
WASHINGTON, November 29.-AmOng
the Senators and Congressman who are
daily arriving there is considerable talk
and comment about the President and his
action in the cases of Benton and Stone,
the suspended District Attorneys. With
the Democrats, of course, there is no OBJ
lection urged to the reinstatement OF
Benton, or the refusal to reinstate Stone.
Mr.. Cleveland, however, is by
many severely criticised for allowing
Republicans, equally guilty with Stone OF
pernicious activity, to remain i'll office.
The same reasons set forth for his nOn-rein-
statement could well be applied to Others.
Special reference has been made to the
Third Assistant Postmaster General, A. ID.
Hazen, who, it is true, has not made any
political speeches, but has contributed ut
various times TO the cause by his product
ions of campaign literature. This was
made special case by two members of
the Indiana delegation, who called upon
the President yesterday. There may have
been method in the madness of
IdianianS, rs that State has an applicant
for lEazen's place in the Chairman of the
State Committee Henderson. 1t is under
stood that the President would long ago
have removed Hazen had not Postmaster
General Villas protested against it. As
the matter has gone so long it is not at all
probable that any change will be made,
no matter how much Mr.. Cleveland may
he informed of offensive partizanship up
on the part of the Third assistant. Mr..
Hazen was not active in the last cam
paigu, but was the trusted lieutenant of
Chairman Goti and Secretary Mcpherson,
of the Republican Congressional Commit
tee, and aided them materially in COM
piling their campaign books.

CHICAGO, November 29.-The men who

to be having a hard time of it from outside

have offered to pay for their share of stock

came wealthy, or got any money, they
would lose their interest in the wageworkers
