GREAT ENGLISH
STRIKE IS ENDED
Railway Managers and Employees
Have Agreed on Compromise
UNION MEN CLAIM ADVANTAGE
Differences Will be Adjusted by
Joint Commission Of Five, Named
by Men and Managers
Riots In Wales.

London, Aug. 21.-The tense stu
alton in England was relieved when
the announcement was made from
the board Of trade offices that the rail-
way strike had been settled and that
the men would return to work i'm
mediately.
The cabinet has been working night
and day since the strike was threat
ened to arrange compromise De-
tween the railway managers and their
employees
The settlement Of the strike was
reached at a conference between
David Lloyd George, the chancellor
of the exchequer, and the executives
of the mems societies. The labor
leaders said that the men would re-
turn to work at once.
Most Of the credit for the ultimate
success Of their efforts rests upon
David Lloyd George, chancellor OF the
exchequer, who in his statements to
parliament and in an interview with
the managers and the men, worked
for Cancellation when all others Oh
the interested persons seemed to have
given 1t up.
A Joint committee of five MEMBERS
composed Of two representatives OF
the railway companies, two OF the
men and a non-partisan chairman,
will be appointed to investigate the
workings Of the Cancellation act OF
1907, which the men assert is the
root of all their grievances. This de-
vice overcomes the mems objections
to a royal commission, which they
contend always has been, in practice
a synonym for delay.
So far as technical advantages IN
the compromise goes, it appears to
be in the mems favor, particularly as
the managers consent to meet their
representatives. The ofiicial state
ment concerning the agreement says
the managers consented to this
scheme in view Of certain representa-
lions made them by the government
including a promise Of legislation to
permit Of an increase in railway rates
The men claim victory for unionism
on the point Of recognition Of unions
which was one of the most vital
principles at stake.
There is no doubt that the excite
ment at Llanelly, Wales, In which the
troops fred on q mob killing two men
and wounding two others, had much
influence in ending the strike. The
liberal government had almost Its
existence at stake. because Of the
strike, as It depends on the working
classes for power.

the census of 1910 numbered 1884
Deducting this figure from the total
of 1900, it is evident that Viennas
rate of increase for the same area is
considerably less for the decade
19OO-10 than for the decade 1890 1900.
The military garrison here has re-
manned about the same for the last
ten years.
The method Of taking the census in
Austria is interesting. The great di-
versity Of race and speech in this
country and the influence of this di-
versity on political questions make
it important to have accurate statis-
tics thereof The census returns there
fore include religion, race and usual
