WIN Not Confer with Strikers.

New YORK, April 27.-President Lyon,
Of the Third avenue company, says he
will have no more conferences with the
strikers, and hat he would resign rather
than confer with them again. Expert
enced drivers are being sought for in other
cities, and when the running of night cars
is resumed if the police are unable to PRE-
serve order, the governor may be called
upon to give military protection TO the
company.
1t is said that basis of agreement be
tween the company and the strikers was
reached yesterday. one of the terms of
which was that prosecutions against the
rioters should be abandoned. The grand
jury, however, had taken the matter and
refused to stop its Investigations, so the
settlement fell through.
1t seems the local authorities have not
been so idle during the past week or ten
days in arranging to cope with the riot, as
many people have supposed. Prepare
tons have been made at most of the ar
mories for a sudden call out and there has
been a great deal of activity behind the
walls of the state arsenal at Seventh ave
nue. and Thirty-ffth street. The 47th
regiment of Brooklyn was under arms the
night of the riot in Green point and the
day after. 1t has leaked out also that a
squad of FAIRIES battery, whose headquar-
tiers have been in the armory of the 18th
regiment, at Broadway and Forty-sixth
street, was put on duty night and day as
long as Wednesday and Thursday Of last
week. A Calling gun was transferred a
night or two ago under a strong guard OF
police to the arsenal, and the battery has
since had its rendezvous there. There is
an effort on the part Of the authorities to
keep the matter quiet. An officer in
charge of the arsenal says that he is not
allowed to give out any information.

The N. Y. Chamber of Commerce

The N. Y. Chamber of Commerce.
New YORK, April 27.-The chamber
of commerce held a special meeting this
afternoon to take action on the labor
question in its relation to strikes. A
large number of business men were in at
tendance. Resolutions were passed de-
claring that the minor differences between
employers and employees should be settled
by mutual consent without Intervention
of third parties, that important differen-
ces affecting the public interest or con
venience ought to be settled by arbitra-
ton; that question as to rates, wages,
hours OF labor, and kind of service to be
rendered are proper subjects Of arbitra-
ton. The chamber recognizes the right
of all classes of citizens to unite on trade
or labor associations, and to use all moral
and legal means in furthering their in
terest; that any employe leaving his BUSH
ness aud going on a strike yacates his
place absolutely; that any man resorting
to violence to prevent another man work
ing should be visited with the full penalty
Of the law, and that every association
which endeavors by intimidation to abridge
the liberty of choice or action OF those
who arc not its members, deserves the
severest censure of every American citi-
zen. These resolutions were discussed al
great length, nearly all those present
making strong speeches in favor of theiI
adoption. A resolution presented by
Gustav Schwab, calling upon the %citizeni
Of America to support the guardians o.
the law in maintaining peace and order
was added to the list of resolutions pre-
scented. The entire list of resolutions
were then adopted by the board with mucl
enthusiasm.

the following telegram from W. b. Gross
close, agent of Wells, Fargo & Co., No

About forty Apaches passed up Santa
Cruz valley this morning early, killing
several Mexicans and Americans. They
passed Calabassas about : O'Clock this
morning. In answer to a call for help
about forty volunteers, well armed, left
here about 8 o'clock on a special train for
Calabassas. Scouting parties were OF
gained and the hostilcs discovered in
camp about two miles north Of Calabassas.
A second train OF volunteers left at 10 and
word was shortly received that the hos

Captain Lebo, passed here for the scene
Of action. A company of cavalry also

An Ovation TO JEFF Davis.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, April 27.- Jeffcr-
son Davis left his home at Beauyoir, Miss.
accompanied by his Youngest daughter, at
II o'clock this morning. They were in a
special ear in charge OF a committee Of
citizens of Montgomery, who went to
escort them. Their arrival at every sta
ton was the signal for a demonstration.
At the stopping places between this city
and Mobile great crowds gathered. Local
military companies fired %salutes, children
waved handkerchiefs and shouted, and all
pressed to the car to shake the hand OF
the man who led the cause of the South
during war times. Many one legged and
one armed soldiers were waiting. to see
him, aud all had shouts of welcome. Mr..
Davis stood or sat at tho rear Of the car.
He was too feeble to speak, but gave a
hearty hand shake to all. The train
reached here at 8 O'Clock tonight
The scene has never been equalled,
and eclipsed the inaugural reception
in 1861. Houses were Illuminated,
fireworks Frightened the heavens, artillery
doomed and a dozen bands played, while
the shouts of thousands mingled with the
roar and added to its volume. The local
military companies and Governor O'Neal
and staff were at the depot to receive Mr..
Davis. 1t was difficult for the carriage
in which he sat, which was drawn by four
white horses, to make its way through
the streets. All this, despite the rain
from above and tie mud beneath. 1t ar
rived at the Exchange hotel, shout after
shout greeted his entrance. The ovation
was the grandest of his life. The decora-
tons on the houses are elaborate and the
United States flag floats from every win
dow. Davis special ear was handsomely
draped and national ensigns were conspic-
uou Gen. B. Gordon, from the Allan
Ia, arrived shortly before Mr.. Davis and
was received at the depot by the military.
An escort of the survivors of his
old 9th Alabama regiment met
him a few miles from the city.
He was welcomed on his arrival In
the city in a speech by Alderman Watts,
acting mayor. Gen. Gordon replied in a
speech, brief but pointed, and the elo-
quent demonstration over him was hearty
and heartfelt. Mr.. Davis retired at an
early hour. His health is good, but he is
not strong. The feeling shown him to-
DAY greatly touched him, as it is the first
expression of any consequence since the
close of the war. His speech tomorrow
will be short. The occasion is a lecture
by him and an address by Gen. Gordon in
aid of the monument to be erected here
to the soldiers Of Alabama who fell in the
war.

The Retiring Chinese Minister


WASHINGTON, April 27.-Cheng Tsao
Ju, the retiring Chinese minister, accom-
panied by Secretary Bayard, called at the
white house to-day and took official leave
of the president. In presenting his let
ter of recall, he said
MIR. President, | desire to express
my sincere thanks, especially for the I'M
varying kindness and courtesy which | and
the members of my legation have received
from your excellency and the high officers
of the United States government while
residing here. These tokens Of good will
have given me great pleasure because of
my conviction that they were given to me
as the representative of the emperor and
the government Of China, and that they
indicate the desire to maintain the ties OF
friendship existing between China and
the United States. This feeling is NEST
earnestly reciprocated bv the government
of China, and now in taking my final leave
permit me, Mr.. President, to offer to you
my sincere wishes for your health and
happiness and for the most abundant
prosperity to the great people over whom
you rule.
The president replied Mr.. Minister
1t is always a source of regret when a
kindly official and the personal relations
which have grown up between this gov
ernmen and the Representatives Of a
friendly sovereign are turned into a new
channel by his retirement. But the re-
greet | feel in receiving from your hands
the imperial edict summoning you back
to China, and in bidding you farewell, is
made deeper by the recollection Of your
high personal qualities and the unvarying
spirit of courtesy and good will you have
infused into the relations between your
mission and this government. The vast
distance that separates China from the
United States, with the remarkable di
v%ersities in language. laws, customs and
traditions Of the two countries and their
people have, not unnaturally, made it
more than usually difficult to create and
maintain at all times that clear, mutual,
good understanding so essential in inter
course. And no one more than your
self has recognized the fact, or
sought mo-. faithfully to overcome the
difficulties which have grown out OF race
jealousy and the competition and r~iyalries
of labor. | recognize and thank you for
your earnest efforts to create that good
feeling between your country and my own,
which | trust will continue to bear its
good fruits to both nations.
When you return to your own shores
accompanied by the most cordial respect
and sympathy of those who have known
you during your stay with US, | beg that
you will assure your sovereign, and cause
your fellow countrymen to know that |
and my constitutional advisers truly rep
resent the great body of our countrymen
in protesting the most cordial and friendly
sentiments toward China, and desire to
conduct our commercial interchanges to a
mutually satisfactory and beneficent end"
