THE BOR TROUBLES.
Its Effects Upon the Real Estate Inter-
ests in Chicago.

CHICAGO, May %.
The Times publishes an article description
of the effects of the labor troubles upon the
real estate interests here. the following
synopsis of which will indicate the amount of
loss said to have resulted therefrom. The
blockade in the building department which
came with the eight hour movement and in
spired by the strikes and riots which followed
has not yet been raised In the opinion OF
many architects and contractors and builders
it will strongly operate against building in
terests of the city during the remainder Of
the season. There was fair prospect from
the building census this season of $3.50 ,00O,-
900. The opinions of the architects vary but
slightly but from the general Drift 1t Ia fair
to assume that the aggregate representative
value of the building this year will fall short
of the estimate about S70,000,000. OF this
amount 40 per cent represents labor which
would equal $40, 600 900 if the season had not
been interrupted. This sum would have
been divided among nearly $4,000 persons
who are employed in the construction of
buildings, giving them an average of about
S266 each.

Chief of Police Ebersold, Friday, refused

night officers appeared on the stage of one of
the cheap theatres and stopped similar af-
fair between two toughs which was about to
be given as part of the entertainment. The

tween Mitchell and Sullivan.
Delegates from all the packing houses met
Friday night to discuss the situation in the
stock Yards Every department of the work
was represented and the decision was unani-
mons to hold out for the eight hour day. The
question of wages was not spoken of in the
meeting, but from conversations held with
some of the delegates afterwards it was clear
that ten hours pay would not be insisted on.
mass meeting of the employees is to occur
Sunday when delegates will be sent to Kan
sas CITY, Milwaukee. St. Louis and Cinein-
natl to induce packing house men in these
cities to go out with the Chicago men. The
men appreciate the fact that with outside

The Home Rule Bill.

LONDON, May 23.
The Gladstone committee is making final
effort to conciliate radical dissenters. The
committee has made an overture to Chamber
lain promising that if he will abstain from
voting against the home rule bill the measure
will be dropped after the second reading and
that the government will then support the
resolution affirming the supremacy of the
Imperial Parliament to the Irish minority.
Labouche writes to the Daily News that
there is not single whig, liberal or radical
whe has announced his intention to vote
against Gladstone's bill whose action has been
endorsed by portion of his constituents who
sent him to Parliament. Not one even pre-
tends to be acting in harmony with his
electors. 1t cannot possibly be said that the
liberals as party are opposed to the bill OF
are disgrunted because certain number of
commoners decline to act as representatives
of their electors.

HALIFAX, N. S., May %.
There have been no new developments to-
day in the fishery situation, matters remain
ing in the same position since the reports of
last evening were forwarded. Consul Cen
eral Phelan did not return to Halifax from
Baddeck tonight, as he expected, and cannot
now be looked for before the first of next
week. The public, though taking things
quietly and without excitement, is hourly
looking for news of additional seizures, be-
ing led to do so from the assertions of Do
mlnOn officers that they will not hesitate 10
any Fisherman committing violating. Fur
thur reports are at hand of United States ves-
sells procuring supplies of bait at coast ports
without any trouble or detension.
NEW YORK. May %.
The Posts Washington special says: "a
gentleman who has talked with Secretary
Bayard within a dav or to says that he is as
much interested in the fishery question as
either of the Maine senators can be, and that
he has great regard for the fishermen. He
expresses himself very forcibly as to the con-
duct of the Canadian officials. He looks at
the question as an American, and not from a
party standpoint, and says that there is no
politics IN it; that the action of the depart
ment cannot yet be made public, but that he
can assure any congressional friend of the
fishermen that everything that is possible is
being done to protect their interests. With
regard to the refusal of the collector of Gus
toms at Digby to permit the captain of the
Jennie and Julia to buy herring there to
smoke he said that he had instructed Consul
Phelan to go at once to Digby and investi-
gate. Secretary Bayard deprecated any at
tempt on the part of the fishermen to coerce
the Canadian government by force of arms,
and said that every step in that direction
would weaken the Unted States and strength
en- Canada He hopfd also that the Ameri-
can fishermen would strictly observe the local
customs regulations in Canada"
