Strike Has
Not Extended

St. Petersburg, Feb. - Specially
"A partial strike at the Putilcff Iron
works and complete tie up of the
st. Petersburg car factory gave rise
to rumors yesterday of of general
recrudescence of the strike move
ment here, but the strike has not
extended. and the success of the man
ayers of the Putiloff works in pre-
venting the great body of workmen
from following their comrades, in
two of the shops, who had walked
out, gives basis for the hope of an
amicable settlement.
The present trouble involves the
questions of pay for the time the
men were on strike and the eight
hour day which were discussed at a
meeting of employers last night.
The employers came TO no abso-
lutte decision, but determined to
adopt a conciliatory attitude, They
probably will concede a nine-hour
day, which will satisfy the employees
pending general legislation ON the
matter of an eight-hour day, which
will be binding upon employers
throughout Russia.
At present six government factor
les and thirteen private establish
ments are working 81 hours or less
weekly and 2S other large enter
prises more than 81 hours.

ready right then to defend himself.
He was taken at his word and in a
brilliant speech of more than an hour
in duration, he reviewed the testi-
mony taken before the investigation
committee and hercely scored the
committee for so limiting the scope
of the investigation that God Al
mighty himself, if he came here
would have been prevented from get

ed thief"
This committee stands convicted
before the country of resorting tc
subterfuges to prevent any real in.
