LONDON PARALYZED.
Business Frustrated and Strikes
Multiplying.
WATER oOMMUEIoATION SHUT OFF

The Greatest Commercial City Of the
World 1t the Mercy Of the Common
Kahorers--The Importation Of provi-
nlonn Restricted ana Prices Advanced
The city Threatened With Darkness.
LoSDoN, Aug. e5.-London today Is
an inland town and promises TO remain
such for some time to come. All COM
munication with the rest Of the world
by water IS completely cut of as though
the Thames had been dried up. The
great ships lying at the docks can
neither load nor discharge their cargoes
and the immense traffic OF the greatest
commercial city of the world lies at the
I ercy Of the men commercially rated at
- day.
Up 70 today the strikes Of the dock
laborers have been regarded By the
London populace not indeed without in
terest. but with that languid interest
which is felt in affairs which concern
other people and not ourselves. But
this is all over. and today the strike and
its consequences touch every man,
woman and child IN this great city.
Maize Advanced shillIngs.
No meal arrived in London today.
The markets in Mark Lane are para
lyzed and maize advanced o shillings
the quarter for immediate use.
The city was thrown into q fever Of
excitement when the coal handlers
struck and IL was announced that the
gas stokers intended to follow suit and
leave the city in darkness. The elec-
trio light companies We're filled with
orders from commercial houses who
sought to avert such a calamity and
largely increased their force. So far
the gas stokers remain at work, but
there Is no telling what moment they
may quit.
thousand Tons Of Mutton Rotting.
AS consequence OF the dock laborers'
strike 1000 tons Of mutton is rotting in
ships which have arrived here within
the week, 1t being found impossible TO
unload it.
The coal porters have joined the
strike. Another conference was held be-
tween the managers of the docks and
the laborers' delegates, but no agreement
was reached. Arbitration of their diff
ferences was again proposed by the
representatives of the strikers, but the
employers refused to listen to any pro-
posal to submit their case to the hands
of third party for decision.
The End II Not Yet.
The strikes so far include only few
industries not directly in connection
with transportation, but there is scarcely
an important trade carried on in London
where there are not loud mutterings of
disgust. The truth is that the working
men have been taught by the deck labor
ers what an immense power they hold in
their hands, and they are anxious to ex-
ercise it to show their masters that they
possess it. Strikes are talked of today
where week ago there was no thought
of a grievance, and there is general
CON rif.finla that the end ia not vat

a Post of Indian Veterans.
The first Tost Of Indian veterans are
coming from northern Minnesota to take
part IN the cncampment. Many honors
await them. Hassendeubel post, of st.
Louis. have flag which will be pre-
sented TO the Indian veterans.
The cast Is well represented, both in
the number of veterans present and Wis
itors. The New England representation
etrongly favor Judge Nezey, OF the Ver-
mont supreme court. for national COM
mander, while the west is unanimously
in favor of Gen. Russell A. Alger. The
contest promises to be close and ex-
citing one.
The City Overcrowded.
Every arriving train is three times its
usual length. Near all the incoming
passenger are civilians. There are but
very few posts arrived yet, and when
the scores en- route get in it passes COM
prehension where they will be housed or
fed.
The city seems overcrowded. The
hotels, lodging and private houses are
packed solid with cots. The committee
insists, however, that provisions have
been made for quarter of. million
visitors. Whether this is Overestimated
is very serious question. Fortunately
the weather is fine and outdoor camping
will be more of comfort than other
wise.
Trouble Over the Parade.

Chief Warner halls lpenl Missouri, he
naturally designated that department as
his escort, with the Illinois contingent
second. The latter claims that Il is en-
titled to the right Of the line or the head
of the procession, and serves notice that
unless the claim is conceded it viii not
march.
New York and Pennsylvania are as
signed third In line, right behind Illin-
Ois, but these are satisfied and are not
disposed TO kick about precedent. As

was known that he was IN the city q
great rush to see him was made. He
held a levee for hours Of veterans who
approve 0f his admin strati0n Of the PEN
sion Office. Tanner comes out squarely
for Alger for commander-in-chief. This

A Peculiar Trade.

One of the most peculiar branches ol industry in this country Is the manufac. ture of slate pencils. There is only one slate pencil factory in the United States. It Is located at Castleton, vt., and en- ploys twenty-five hands, who turn out 30, GOO slate pencils every day.
 The method of manufacture Is a good deal Tn advance of the primitive means employed some years back. Not long since the blocks of soft slate from which they are cut were sawed in lengths and distributed among the neighboring la- borers' families to be whittled down to pencil shape. Those working at them could earn about 5O cents per thous- and. By the present system the blocks which are as wide as pencil Is long, arc put into the mouth of u machine called the crocodile. This contains six rows of revolving curved knives. As the slab passes between these knives paral- Tel grooves are cut in the slabs, then they are turned and cut through. The square pencils are then rounded and pol ished by holding them against the emery belt. One man can cut out and finish about 5000 pencils per day. IN. Y. Morning Journal.

PERHAPS IT'S THE SALARY.

We notice that our esteemed contem- porary, the Meriden Republican, pats the soon to be ex-Collector Troup on the back and says his refusal to resign at the request of the republican powers was in tended to put the administration "in a hole." We shave an idea, however, that there is another reason more potent than that. As the ex-greenbacker, ex-labor reformer, ex-trade unionist, and soon to be extinct democratic politician, once remarked ''There's nothing agreeable to me about this office but the salary Perhaps, therefore, it's the salary, rather than a bluff At the administration, that makes the fellow that Judge Birdsall elegantly styled "the bull-headed English Kanuck" hang like grim death to his place. In the present condition of his newspaper property that's a salary that will be missed. He is fully aware that it isn't growing on every bush.
 Troup isn't letting go any of the butter that is spread on his parsnips.
