Thousand Out or Employment.

lBy telegraph to the Dispatch.l
CHICAGO, May l4.-The strike in the
lumber-yards is apparently practically
ended. The reports from about forty
of the yards show that the old men
were struggling back to work to-day.
In some CT the yards nearly full
force was at work. The strikers CON-
mittee became involved in . wrangle,
and failed to meet the lumbermen as
arranged. 1t was said that it was final
ly agreed to report to the lumbermen
that the men would 60 back to work at
the old terms if all were taken back.
1t seems probable that large majority
Of the men will 60 back into the yards
to-day and resume work. The strikers
committee announces it will call on the
lnmbermen's committee to-day.
CHICAGO, May l4.-At 6 O'Clock
last evening, In accordance with the de-
cision Of the Wholesale Clothing Manu-
facturera' Association Of Chicago, oil
The manufacturers notified their cutters
that for the present no further work
would be given out. BY this action

Mr.. Jones, from the Committee on

mitted the following report:
The undersigned Committee on Public
GROUNDS and Building. TO which committee
was referred the question OF inquiring In to
the expedieBcy OF granting the location
known rs the market-housc site to the cor
poration known as the Friendship Hall
Company" Of the city of Manchester for
tbt Hb lprt vi tItttlnk lntEtOu ~ puDlt
hail, beg leave to report as follows:
That very handsome and attractive
plan prepared by an architect. Major Bur
gwyn, was exhibited TO your committee by
acommittee for the Friendship Hall Com
pany. This committee thinks IL il uniyer-
sally conceded by the people Interested in
the PROGRESS OF the city that Hall should
be built In our place; and knowing that so
many objects, such as public schools and
street improvements and the Introduction
~ tsr a nd nlQffarS which will
absorb all the means at the command OF
the Council for long time, your commit.
tee would recommend that II an agreement
could be prepared by the City Attorney re-
presenting the city on the one part and the
proper officers OF the Hall Company on the
other part. settling forth that the Hall Com.
rspy would In the construction OF the
building provide a suitable Mayors Court
room. a room for police headquarters. and
consultation room-these accommodations
TO be free OF all rent - the city under a
renewable pefpetuate lease, so long as so
used by the city.
2. That the building be liable 10 city tax.
3. The city getting benefit OF the license
Ia Y on exhibitions as Is customary. That a
deed 10 so much OF the property located on
the corner OF Ninth and Hull streets as Is
indicated in the pan which has been
already referred to be made and executed
10 said company by the CITY Council, and
such provisions be Inserted In the agree
ment between the parties as may protect
the city until the hail is fully complete.
We think that the aggregate revenue
would be so considerable as TO make the
construction OF such building highly adj
yantageous to the city; directly and indi-
rectly add very much 10 the Increased
value OF the property In that portion OF the
city.
In brief, we recommend to the Council
that the petition OF the Friendship Hall
Company be fayorably considered under
such details and provisions as may protect
the city's rights In the premises.
Very respectfully
