 Her Company.

 be Put to Work.
 JERSEY CIrY, Dec. 7.-The striking em- ployes of the Lehigh Valley railroad &C., cepted the terms offered by the company and applied for work this morning. About one quarter of the men were given places
 and the names and addresses of others who applied for work were taken. All vacan-
 cies on the road were filled at once, but none of the non-union men who were en- ployed when the old hands struck were discharged to make berths for strikers. The strike has ended in complete vic tory for the Lehigh Valley railroad, and the men who were led to believe that they had won yesterday admit their defeat to- day.
 PoTIsvlLLK, Pa, Dec. 7.-While the | local officials deny all knowledge of such | action, yet there is no doubt that regular
 and extra Philadelphia and Reading rail

The Erie Has Secured Enough ShiR-
 ments to keepit Busy for Days.
 CHICAGO, Dec. 7.-The war in east bound freight rates was renewed to-day. No new tariffs were issued and none of the roads admitted cutting rates, but 1t was notor- ious fact thstanyb body having grain to ship had no difficulty in making contracts for its transportation to the seaboard at IT assts per 100 pounds, or 2i cents below the tariff rates. The same cut was freely made in the provision rates, 20 cents to New York being the rate at which the days shipments were made.
 The Erie has secured enough shipments at the 20 cent rate for grain and 22i cent rate for provisions to keep it busy for day or two. As soon as 1t works this busi nees off it will issue fresh tariffs at thu lowest rates it can prove any of It's compst itors are making.
