rmcAoo , Oet 12. ( Special Telegram to
the Hnr.l A circular Issued by ono of the
commission at the stock jards summiri/cs :
the situation thus : "Wo think the stilke is
welcomed by the packers , and by holding
out they hone to secure cheaper labor , a gieat
reduction In the present largo store of pro
visions on account of the falling off In the
supply of hogs , and cheaper ho son account
ot tlm hciivv receipts when the labor tumbles
have been adjusted. For these reasons we
look foi no compromise on the part of the
parkers , and bellovo the duration ot the
sti Ike will depend entirely on the ability of
tlio strikers to hold out , and some of the
pnckers who otuht to know something about
the temper and resources of the sttikeis ,
profess to believe that they will hold out
eight or ten weeks. "
Ono Knight of I/ibor said that the arrival
of liullei and Hany had not helped things
at alias jet , and until they had worked for
several days It would ho useless to look for
any settlement. ' "I ho men , " said ho , "aio
all determined to work only eight hours , nnd
the packets are just as detcimlned to work
ten , It is not a question of wages , and
while theio in.iy be a compromise on a basis
of nine hums' work , 1 think th.it it Is n trlllo
doubtful. A cany rate , any such compromise
will only be the result ot long consldeiatlon
and many conferences , and cannot bo ex
pected In adaj. '
This aftcinoon Harry said to n reporter :
"I have seen a number of packers this morn
ing. ' 1 hey refuse to tieat with us as an or-
gatii/atlon. 1 expect to see moro of them
this aftei noon , and then conclude tlm nego
tiations which are pending fora settlement.
Tills will bo in the natuio of a compromise ,
probably something between nine and ton
hours. "
"What do ion mean by that ten lioms'
pav for nine hours' work ? "
" 1 didn't say. " ho replied , with a laugh ,
"and cannot penult myselt to talk. "
Cinr.Vdo , Oct. 12. Tlio committee ti om the

by the dcpaitmcnt of state this momlng cor
rebate the published jepoit of the hauling
down of thoAmerlcan flag of the Ameilcan
schooner Marlon ( Ulmes at Shelburim by
Captain Qulgloy , of the Canadian cruiser
Terror. The action of the captain of the
Crimes in running up the color * while the
vessel was In custody ot the Canadian ollleeis
Is deprecated at tlio department as IlKelv to
needlessly complicate the department In its
effort to reach a satisfactory settlement ot
the fisheries ( | iiestion. It appears that when
the United States cutter Coiw In sol/ed the
Hritlsh sailing vessels in Alaskan wateis. the
Hist oflicliil net of the cantors was to haul
down the Hiitish colors. 'Iho ground foi
taking such action is toiind In the claim that
until the seUed vessel is teleased , she Is tech

ing the soUutc. The Incident Is not reg.nded
ut the state depaitment as ono likely to cause
