AT A DEAD LOCK.
THE BRITISH PRESS ON THE BERING
SEA CORRESPONDENCE
One Regrets Blaine's Asperity- Salisbury
is Mere Baby in His Hands--The
Matter is in Worse Shape than Before.

LONDON, July 24.-The Telegraph re-
grets the asperity Of the tone of Mr..
Blaine in the Bering sea dispatches.
England" it says, sis strong enough
to be calm and courteous, and is suffici-
emily fond of peace to disregard Blaine's
petulance. England has no immediate
interest in the question beyond seeing
fair play" 1t concludes with the sug-
gestion that King Humbert of Italy or
Emperor William be asked to arbitrate
the matter.
The Chronicle says in a leader:
Mr.. Blaine proves himself an ADLER man
in controversy than Lord Salisbury,
although having worse case to defend.
The representatives of England seem
mere babies in the hands of Mr.. Blaine.
1t is obvious that Lord Salisbury at an
early period of the discussion became
sensible of his inferiority in dialectic
skill to his opponent, lost his temper
and deliberately insulted Mr.. Blaine by
declaring that he conducted the negotia-
tions in the interests of his party, and not
in the interests of his country. What,
Blaine's object may be, however, does
not alter the fact that no claim of Rus
sia or America, no admission of John
Quincy Adams, can convert vast open
sea into mare cldusum."
The Times says: "The correspondence
leaves matters worse. Under the sim
lister influences of party pressure, Presi
dent Harrison and Mr.. Blaine have be-
come more exacting and have advanced
in an irreconcilable spirit claims about
which they once expressed diffidence.

The New York Cloak Makers Strike
Ended-street-C Cleaners Strike.
New York, July 24.-The cloak
makers strike was settled today and
the men returned to work in the morn
ing. Through the exertions of Coroner
Levy an agreement was reached which
is satisfactory to both parties. The
manufacturers recognize the union and
will discharge all non-union men in
their employ, reserving the right, how
ever, to retain American girls who are
working for them. About 5000 Hebrews
will return to work tomorrow.
The strikers were becoming turbu-
lent and had begun to resort to acts of
violence to enforce their demands. Last
night twenty of them entered the apart
ments of Mrs. Celia Bender, No. Allen
street, and beat her badly. She en-
ploys dozen hands. These the rioters
chased away ,and smashed Mrs. Bender's
furniture.
All drivers of the eet-cleaning de-
partment joined the strikers this morn
ing. The work is almost at stand
still. Two hundred men are out. Men
are being taken on to supply the places
of the strikers.

found late this afternoon and had ap-
parently been dead several hours, hav-
ing been hit by fifteen buckshot. Cook
had the reputation of being turbulent

Gladstone Scores Salisbury for His Sins
of Omission.
LONDON, July 24.-In the commons to-
day, Sir James Ferguson, parliamentary
secretary of the foreign office, moved
that the bill providing for the cession of
Heligoland pass its second reading.
Gladstone made a speech in support
of the agreement. He blamed the gov
ernment, however, for not securing be-
forehand an agreement with France re-
garding Zanzibar. He said it was diff
cult to comment on the omission with
out embarrassing the government,
which he did not desire to do.
1t was to be regretted that
in one person were combined the
offices of prime minister and
foreign secretary, as the duties of
the two exceeded the possibilities of any
human being, unless it possessed the
powers of Napoleon or Cromwell. He
could not vote against the bill on prin-
ciple, because the queen could give
Germany Heligoland but he was not
disposed to make precedent on sub
ject of most profound practical import
ance i'll the constitution, Therefore he
declined to take part in the division on
the BILL
Goschen, Harcourt, Balfour and others
spoke. Smith then moved the cloture
on the Heligoland bill, but the speaker
refused to close the discussion on a
question so important without allowing
the amplest debate. The debate was
then adjourned.
