QUIET AT BARCELONA.
Officials Believe the Worst Of the Trouble is
Over-Two Killed at Sarria. .

miners in session here discussed means
of sustaining public order. The situa-
tion is greatly improved. The labor
societies here have declined to join the
strike. Official kilograms declare that
order prevails everywhere in the prov

to Barcelona, but it is hoped that the
worst of the trouble is now over The
strikers at Barcelona have demanded
payment in full of their wages for the
past week. The employers. have refused
these demands, except in tacfew cases,
where they were acceded to- in the hope
of conciliating the men. As.Following
the advice of the captain genera, ,.many
factories of Barcelona have agreed to re-
start their fires, though it is doubtful
if the men will resume work. The re-
fusal of the authorities to liberate the
arrested strike leaders is causing resent
ment. Isolated riots are still reported.

some of men were arrested for expert
menting with explosives. One.of these
men fired on the police and a fight
ensued in which one policeman and one
workman were killed and two mon
wounded. At Pedrables,. two strikers
were killed in conflict with the police.

ceived everywhere. He said he hoped
the strikers would resume work and
characterized the Sarria affair as uD-
important. The. captain general. de-
clared the situationtat Barcelona did
not inspire him with anxiety. Il
