End Of n Great Strike.

employers federation Of the with
drawal, on behalf Of the men, Of the
eight-hour demand.
tThe strike began July IL. 1897. The orig
inal cause or contention was the question
or the length Of a days work, and also pay
mont for overtime. The engineers demand
cd an eight-hour day. and insisted that all
overtime must count as one and quarter
time for the first two hours, and after that
as time and a half. The employers abso-
lutely refused to make any concessions on
these lines, contcndlng that tho conditions
OF trade and the kcencst OF foreign compe-
tition rendered such action on their part an
imDossibility. The strike began with
lockout on the part or some OF the employ
crs which was followed by the engineers
calling out a large number OF men, until
about 100000 engineers In the United King
dom were idle. From the beginning OF the
strike the amalgamated society OF the en-
ginccrs paid out enormous sums OF money

Paris. Jan. 1S.--A great anii-Dreyfus
and anti-Semlte meeting Monday night
at the Tivoh Vaux hall produced ex-
traordinary scenes. The neighborhood
was paraded by police mounted and on
foot and the rapidly growing crowd in
creased the excitement. At nine o'clock
on the opening OF the meeting, the hall
was a seething sea of humanity, crowd
ing every part, gesticulating, shouting:
"a bas lola" "Vive l'armee" and 'Vive
In revolution sociale." The members of
the anti-Semite committee displayed
banners bearing the inscription Death

Outline Of Pope Lco's Proposition for
Rcpubiic.


London, Jan. 15.-The Rome corre-
spondent OF the Daily Chronicle in
startling statement Saturday morning
quotes largely from an article in Civ
ilita Cattolica, which he declares Is d.
rectly inspired by the vatican and the
pope, advocating as the solution of the
eternal question between the vatican
and the quirinal the establishment of
an Italian republic.
The article, which Is based on the
pope's Christmas allocution, declares
that the thing which stands opposed to
papal independence is not Italian unity,
but "the special and concrete form
wherein that unity is at present main
tanned. with results much more dis
nstrous to the state than to the holy
see" 1t proceeds to assert that the CO.
existence of the vatican and the italian
monarchy Is impossible, and that one
or the other must go. IL then suggests
the constitutions of Switzerland and
America as examples of admirable and
glorious constitutions, true union or
nation and state, though differing from
that of Italy, which has produced moth
ing Dut WtuhHVNo, ihiSNfs "HN @A@. ~.
tion."
The article concludes: without the
aid Of foreign bayonets the true Italy
will find for itself its own way and will
rise again, let MS hope, from the ig-
nominy in which IL now lies PROSTATE,
TO true greatness"
The Daily Chronicles correspondents
asserts that this is "an intentional reve-
lation 10 the outer world of the policy
actuatng the inner mind of Cardinal
Rampolla, papal secretary of state" lie
adds:
probably there would be no truth In tho
sipposition that either Cardinal Rampola
or the pope has any idea OF even tenn
porary alliance with the republican party;
but yet they believe that, while peace with
the king Is impossible, IL might be possible
with republic. The reason for the APP
pearance OF this astonishing pronounce
ment at the present moment IL the heller
that not only the ministry but the dynasty
Itself Is menaced more seriously than
usual"
