CHICAGO, July 10.-While to outward
appearance all things nre movint quiet
~ here to-day there has been no time
since the strike movement was Instituted
when the situation was 80 strained and
the state Of suspense SO general and
wearing as to-day.
Violence has ceased. In Its place n the
confident assertion Of labor leaders that
tomorrow Is to witness a strike de-
monstration which will break all records
aud which will extend It's efYects over
the whole country.
The general trades strike in this city
Is promised for tomorrow morning.
In addition. General Master Workman
Sovereign says he will issue. to-mor-
row, unless unforeseen circumstances
arise. an order which will call out every
knight of Labor East and West. be-
and sympsthizers uneounted. Altoseth-
er. Sovereign says ne expects the order
to arrsct nearly million men.
Tie American Federation Of La
eor's President, Gonpers. now on
his way to the city. has called
II mseting Of his Executive Conn
nittee FOR Thursday next. This
shows that the Order is, at least, not
TO enter In the demonstration OF to-
strike at all. or not, remains to be seen.
Gompers says: st behooves US to en-
deavor to bring order out OF what
threatens 10 become chaos
These words may prove to be OF much
significance
Chiefs OF other orders have been in
viled to meet The Federation Committee
In conference.
All things considered. 1t seems certain
that within the next iwenty-four hours
will come the making Or the breaking,
Gs regards the strike and it's leaders.
1t has been maintained by the rail-
way managers and others that the talk
OF general strike in the city and -coun-
try was n pure bluft. and that the men
could rot be induced to obey rhe call
even in the city alone.
Should the order come tomorrow the
story will soon he told II the Managers

Loss RALF A MILLION.

Ehe lozier Bicycle Factory at Toledo, o..
Completely destroyed.
TOLEDO. o., Nov. 30.-The extensive
bicycle factory of the Lozier Manufac-
turing company, said TO be the second
largest OF its kind in the world, was
completely destroyed by fire during the
evening. The last of the 500 employees.
who are now thrown out of work with
no prospect of early resumption, had
left the mammoth structure but short
time before the alarm for the fire was
sent In. The factory is nearly three
miles from the center of The city, so
that when the first of the fire apparatus
arrived ON the scene the flames had
control OF the building. All but three
OF the ii fire companies responded to
the alarm, only to find, to their ehag-
rim, that there were but two hydrants
from which to take water. The two
streams were wholly inadequate to cope
with the blaze and half an hour after
the alarm was given the factory was
almost complete ruin. The fire
started in the assembling" room of
the factory and was caused by the ex-
plosion of large tank of enamelinR
fluid. The loss is about $500, 600, with
insurance of $3.50, 900.
