The London Strike

LONDON, Dec. 27.-The ballot taken
by the striking engineers as the outcome
of the recent conference between the
representatives of the employers and the
men has resulted in a rejection of the
proposed compromise by 100 to /, while
the trades unions proposal of fifty-one
hours weekly instead Of forty-eight has
been rejected by a majority almost as
large. The ballot, therefore, is prac-
tically tantamount to vote of no con-
fidence in the leaders of the men. It is
understood that the conference will not
be resumed. The lockout will now COM
mence, though it is reported that several
firms intend to open their shops to men
willing to work on the employers terms.

city. There was no excitement about
the polling places, though during the
day about $4,000 votes were cast The
count proceeded very slowly. but at mid
night the supaeh ters of the ticket NOM
mated by the charter convention Of 100,
which was named by Mayor Phelan,
confidently claim that they have won q
decisive victory. They assert that all
Of their candidates have been elected
and that charter framed on the lines
of that already prepared by the con-
vention will soon be submitted to the
electors for ratification. There were
several other tickets in the field, but
they cut little figure, the fight being
between the following nominees:
Non-partisans, chosen by the charter
convention-Jerome A. Anderson, Jos.
Britton, James Butler, II. N. Clement,
A. Comte, jr., Alfred Cridge, L. r. Ellert,
Isidore Cutie, p. II. Mccarthy. John

advantage Of their opponents.
The Examiner claims that the charter
nominees have made a clean sweep and
