they have met their masters in fight

those which Weyler used to issue every

THE CLOUDS ROLLED BY.
The End of the Buffalo Dock Labor.
ers' Protracted Strike Hap
ply Ended.
ALL IS BUSTLE AND ACTIVITY AGAIN.
The Men are BeIpg Put to Work
Rapidly as the Work Appears for
Them to DO-The Men Have Gain
ed Almost Every Point They De-
manded.

Buffalo, n. y. May 25.-The clouds
of trouble which have hung over this
city for the past five weeks have been
dispelled by bright sunshine, and
brighter hopes for business prosperi-
ty. The dock laborers, who have
waged an earnest but particularly
peace war against their employers,
having gained almost everything they
demanded, swarmed along the docks
looking for work.
An Excessive Supply of Labor.
The supply is far in excess of the
demand, owing to the stagnation of
traffic during the recent strike, but
now that the blockade has been lifted,
this lack of work will soon disappear,
and the almost hourly arrival of grain
and package freight-laden vessels at
the port will surely renew the usual
aspect of the shipping and railroad
district.
All Troubles ObIiterated.
All the troubles of the strikers have
been obliterated under most stringent
and binding agreements, and with the
exception of the abrogation of the
contract system, they have been grant
ed every demand they made. All
along the line of docks, from the Ex-
port to the Raymond elevators, there
gathered a crowd all anxious to work,
and as many of them as could be ac-
commodated were Immediately placed.
There has been no friction between the
new bosses and the applicants, and
those best qualified to pass upon the
situation say that under the new
agreement there will be very little
chance of any further trouble.
Many Interests are Jubilant.
Grain scoopers, freight handlers, ore
and coal shovelers, all agreed to return
to their respective jobs, and the ma
rine fremen, who had struck in sym
pathy with the others, anticipated the
revival of business by going to work
Tuesday evening. The workingmen
who have fought so hard for remedial
measures are not the only ones who
feel joyful. The carriers and con-
tractors are equally jubilant, and the
mechanics, who have suffered for some
weeks from the scarcity of money in
the regular interchange of business,
are grateful for the changed condi-
tions.
