COLLAPSE OF A STRIKE.
New Orleans Emerges From a Rs
markable Labor Experience.


The big strike at New Orleans, La, has
collapsed. It was most ambitious labor
movement and nearly succeeded. The inter-
ference Of Governor Foster killed it. The
strike was altogether on the question of
unionism, and was an attempt to prevent
the employment In any trade or industry OF
any but union men. The Amalgamated
Council organized all the trades In New o.
leans, sixty-o in number, into unions last
spring, and then set about raising wages and
reducing the hours Of labor and compelling
employers to take only union men. The
street car hands struck and won sigma
victory, and strike after strike followed dur
ing the summer and fall, the men being VIC
torious in all Of them. Then the teamsters,
leaders and warehousemen struck to compel
the merchants to employ only union men.
The Amalgamated Council took up their
fight and ordered general strike OF all
trades out OF sympathy.
In order to bring the merchants to terms
It was intended practically to paralyze New
Orleans, to affect every industry, and to
bring the matter home to every man, wo
would unite in insisting that the merchants
concede their demands. AS strike it wasa
success. There could have been no more
complete one. Only four men in Is, 0OO or
dersd out refused to obey the orders OF the
council.
For a week New Orleans was without
lights cars or carriages. The factories were
closed, business killed, steamboats, tied up,
railroads, newspapers and theatres crippled.
Neither the Mayor nor the police seelnei
capable of doing anything. Tbs city was
drifting rapidly to anarchy when Governor
Foster assumed charge and restored order.
His nfociamation had the desired effect.
Some $4,000 men were idle for a week,
losing s5OO,OO0 in wages. The employers
probably lost fifty per cent more. This is
their busiest season Of the year. The receipts
Of produce average about $1,000, 900 day.
Of which about half has been diverted by
the strike, and including the shipments the
direct loss to New Orleans, for weeX's
nearly complete suspension OF business vii
be between s., ,000, 900 and $1,000 ,0oO.

NEW ORLEANS (La) industrial affairs
were placed in a'badly crippled condition on
account Of the general strike.
ALAHaE proportion Of the manufactured
goods of Russia is made in the homes Of tbs

In Great Britain it Is illegal now to en-
ploy girls in shops under eightseu for more
than seventy four hours q week, and shop
keepers who disobey the law are liable to be
fined.
ALONG the Monongahela Valley, in Pennsyl.
yania. the leaders Of the 5000 miners involved
in the strike asserted that, rise or no rise IN
the river, there would be no going back to
work unless at the SO cent rate.

visved II, At worsingwomen in twenty-five
of our largo cities, announce the average
WAGES for q day OF ten hours or more to be
S55i per week, or less than ninety-two cents

REPORTS from industrial centres Of Ger
MANY all point to theexistence Of depression
in trade except in few branches OF the tex
tia industries, which are doing an active
business on large orders from England and
America.
THE manufacturers Of Fall River, Mass,
have increased wages OF weavers to twenty
one cents per cut and all other departments
in proportion. This Is practically an ad-
vance of about seven per cent. and restores
wages to the standard Of 1884.
TIE different counties in Scotland pay
shepherds different wages. The range o.
prices paid run from So rs TO S6.50 par week,
according to ability. In the Highlands il

shepherd can manage from 1000 to 14oO: il
only ewes a shepherd should have 200 or 800
less with an assistant at landing time.

DANCING.

is physical exercise, one-third Is sensual.
AS to the first the enjoyment of fine music,
of beautiful dresses, forms and motions, they
may all be had under better auspices than IN
the dance. A woodland ramble, tennis,
tournament, an archery cluD; bicycle or
horseback riding. the concert-room- these
furnish in Gods own way tenfold mora
beauty to the eye and ear than is furnished
by the finest ball ever given. As for the sec
ond third. the physical exercise, 1t is III

supper tables, noise-thesc make poor out

gator of the dance ~ no;y practised In Amer.
lea will agree that the third part into which
this heathen GsIl is divided Is the strong
hold of the province. The sensual;ty OF the
dance makes bold-eyed women Of soft-eyed
maidens; it makes staggering rakes Of pure
lads; it changes love TO filtration and game
of flippant shrewdncss; 1t makes applicable
