A HITCH IN THE SETTLEMENT,
Lehigh Valley Strikers Not All
Satisfied Yet.
Some Think They We're Sold Out

MAUcH CHUNK, Pa, Dec. 6.-There is
a serions hitch in the settlement OF the
Lehigh Valley strike. The leaders re-
ceived cipher messagen early this morn
ing declaring the strike WAS off. The
men expected to return in a body, and
every man took his place. When the
arrangement was made known to them,
things assumed different shape. The
men unanimously declared every man
would have to be taken back or none.
The strikers held meeting at the opera
house this evening. The proposition
for settlement was rejected. Similar
action was taken at Lehigh, Weissport
and White Haven. The new phase OF
the situation has caused great uneasiness
here. The stockholders, strikers and
business men are more or less detected.
They had hoped for a settlement. The
strikers say, however, they are prepared
to hold out any length OF time.
THE STRIKERS SOLD OUT.
WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Dec. 6.-The
strikers broke ranks at IL o'clock to-
night and made rush for Superinten-
dent Esser's office. The latter said to
all applicants: "Understand, gentle
men, | abide by the agreement
given out this evening. and
that shall take back as
many of you as can make
place for. You deserted the road volun-
tarily. We had to run our trains and
we got other men. They are doing their
work faithfully; there are some vacan-
cies, and these / will fill with the first
men who return and report for duty"
Some of the strikers claim the grand
chiefs sold them out; that they were in
q fair way to win the fight when called
off.
THE TERMS OF SETTLEMENT.
BETHLEHEM, Pa, Dec. CAS- the re-
suit OF the conference between the Off
GERS of the Lehigh Valley railroad. the
boards of arbitration of the states
of New York and New Jersey
and the chiefs of the local and
national labor organizations which par
ticipated in the great strike on that
road, the strike was declared off early
this morning. The road agrees to re-
employ the strikers without preju-
dice, and without regard to their
membership in labor organizations, go
far as places can be found for them
to so divide work among them as
to make their employment remun-
erative; TO listen to complaints
from grievance committees, and to give
old employees preference in hiring ad-
dtional men and in promoting men al.
ready in the service.
SOME OF THE STRIKERS PLEASED.

ployees of the Lehigh road at this place
received the news of the ending of the
strike with much pleasure, and num-
Der have already gone back to work.

hurled it after his hat. Then he sat

lsO-sYY0OG.

Among a large class Of craftsmen the
wish has long been entertained for the
discovery of hard, compact and even
grained wood, having all the charac-
teristics of lockwood and for which it
would form an efficient substitute. For
many years past the gradual dimin
ution in the supplies OF lockwood and the
deterioration in its quality have proved
serious facts in more than one occupa-
tion, including engravers, hardwood
dealers, ETC., especially the former, on
account of the higher price asked for
the material and the difficulty of Sc
curing it of the needed size and firmness
of texture so as to insure the artistic
excellence of the engraving.
While by far the most important use
of this wood is for the engraver's art,
it is also applied to numerous other
purposes, such, for instance, as weav
ing shuttles, mathematical instruments,
turnery uses. carving, cabinet work,
ETC. The fact is interesting as well as
important that lockwood IS the nearest
approach to ivory of any wood known
and will therefore probably increase
gradually in value as it becomes scarcer.
Small wood. under four inches, is used
considerably by fax spinners for rollers
and by turner's for various purposes.

from splits is of equal value with the
larger wood. New York Sun.

states that the silk unwound in single

silkworm measured 404 yards. After this
bunch of silk had been thoroughly dried
and reeled it was found to weigh exactly
