At Duqnesne last night everything
was quiet. The streets have been re.
plarkably free from strikers, as the lat
Ter are keeping under cover owing to
the presence Of number of constables
armed with warrants for the arrest of
those who took part in yesterdays riot.

as ever. The leaders contend that their
chances for winning the battle are
brighter than ever, though on what
they base their hopes is not quite plain.
