Settlement of the Cork Workers' Trouble fieached lesterday. MISCELLANEOUS IXDUSTEIAL NEWS President Smith, of the American Flint Glass Workers TJnioD, and John J. Martin returned yesterday from Corning, X. Y., where there is in progress the greatest strug gle for unionism Mr. Smith's organization ever experienced. According to Mr. Smith, however, the men hold the key to the situation, and it is only a matter of a few weeks at the farthest until they will have the firm completely de feated. On Saturday nicht CO men, in cluding at least 0 of the most skilled work men formerly employed by Houghton & Co., were sent to Findlay, O., where the;- will be employed by the Globe Chimney Works in making the electric bulbs, upon which the corning firm had such a monopoly. Of the remaining 325 strikers it is claimed that not a man has broken faith with the organization, and all are standing firm for recognition of their rights. Speaking of the situation, Mr. Smith said: "This is the hardest fight we have evrr had, but we will win it as sure as the sun shine. Corapalnts Made of III Usage. "Every man we have organized is out and the firm has the factory full ot green men trying to operate, but their attempt is a dismal failure. The newspapers of Corning are leagued against us. They have been pub lishing coutiuually stones to tbe effect that the men were defeated, when, in fact, tbe lat ter never were In danger or losing the fight. The paper published and republished reports that the tlrm bad all tbe men it needed, anu conld get along very well with out tbe strikers and the men could not get a line printed in their favor for anv. thiDC- The nrm even controlled the Associ ated Press and prevented all information get tioe out of Cornir.c concerning the strike." Mr. Martin added in this connection: "Yes, and they even controlled the telegraph office. We wired a man in Boston to come to Corning Immediately. In seven min utes, time the firm knew of it and in fconie manner onr telegram was countermanded. If 'Ae sent out Information to any point, the Arm found it out. and the information was contradicted to suittho wishes of Houghton & Co. I never saw a town where anyonehrm could rnn things so completely their own way. or where such injustice was aonetoalot of workingmen." Mr. Smttn continued: "The original cause of this trouble was the discharge of a number of employes because they were members of our union. The factory was a non-union shod, and we made an effort to organize it. When we had secured 195 members tbe nrm found us out. Houghton is himself a member of ihe Ameri can Association of Flint and Lime Glas Manu. faciurers. but was not willing that bis men should enjoy the privilege he claimed for him self. Not Considered an Ordinary Strike. "As soon as he learned the names of about a dczenofthe men who had joined tbe union, they were discharged. The remainder quit ont of sympathy for their fellow workmen. Since tbe strike began we have organized about 150 more men. and we lnve them all in line. "The difficulty is something more than an ordinary strike. The principle, shall workmen be permitted to exercise the rishts belonging to them, and shall one firm have a monopoly of an industry that nclonzs to the manufacturers of the country are questions Involved: and for once, if never before are ve righting i.ot only for the rights of our own men but for the manufacturers as well." Mr. Maitiu. who went to Corning to get a glimpse of the situation, said he had never seen so much excitement as prevailed there when the bO men leltfor Findlay. People gatheied in great throngs aronrdtbedepotand along the road, and when tbe special train carried the workmen away, those who were left behind paraded the streets, waving banners and flags and cheering themselves hoarse, as ir celebrat ing the great victory as it was, Citizens joined In with as much gusto as the men themselves, evidently in full svmpathy with the workers. The sending of the men to Findlay, 0 marks a new era in the glass manufacturing industry of the company. The monopoly on electric bnlbs, which has heretofore been held by Houghton t Co., has been broken, and tbe market will now be supplied bv other manu facturers. It is given out that unless the Corning tirtn come to the terms of their men all of their skilled workmen will bo taken from them and placed in other factories. HEEE TOE A GOOD TIME.

Mr. Weihe said Mr. Lahuglt never was au thorized by any one connected with tbe general office to apply for the hall, and no one else in the association bad the riebt to apply for it.
