burden, of course, falls heaviest on
th-jue who are least able to bear it.
Tbe men who struck because they
found it difficult to live on tbe small
wages they have been getting, hare
in nearly every instance been com
pelled to go back to work at the very!
same wages tbey protested tbey could
not live on, and they have lost from
ten to fifteen days' work. ,
It is certain, therefore, that the
strikers hare inflicted loss and harder
times upon themselves, while their
course has involved the loss of many
millions upon tbe country. The great
question of tbe day now is, Docs
striking pay ? ' The answer we leave
to tbe employe themselves.
OIK IEW-TOBK LETTEK.
New York, August 1, 1877.
THE GREAT STRIKE.
The areat strike which has plunged
tne whole countrv into a condition of
anarchy, is the prevailing topic The
stoppage of traffic on the Railroads
bas bad a most disastrous eueci eo
the business of tbe city, and, coming,
as it does, just as we began to see
glimmers of daylight, is ali the more
depressing. It is a thousand pities
tbat tbe madmen could not let the
roads operate in peace till the enor
mous crop tbat covers tne enure west,
was eotteo to market, and the money
for it distributed in thi hands of tbe
farmers. It is a thousand pities tbat
men haven't sense enough to know
'.hat force never did add a cent to a
man's wages, and that labor is some
thing that regulates itself, and which
physical force can neither alter or
amend. There was, all the week, a
feverish feeling of apprehension.
There are in the city fifty thousand
honest men cut of employment, ntty
thousand more who wouldn't do a
stroke of work to save tbeir lives, so
so long as anything can be found to
steal ; and then ttere are twenty
thousand men at work, who are in
fected with tbe terrtble dogmas of
communism, and who are bora agita
tors. The Btrikers in Baltimore and
Pittsburgh set these classes into a
ferment. The unemployed wanted
work, the communists wanted an op
portunity t3 "strike for the rights of
man," and the ruffians and tramps
disorder tbat tbey might pillage with
impunity. The excitement culmina
ted in ft monster meeting ftt Tomp
kins square Wednesday night, under
the directions of Schwab, Thompson
and Swinton, the three leaders of the
New York communists. When tbe
meeting was called, the city was in a
state ot alarm .It was feared tbat the
fanatical leaders would inflame tbe
multitude sure to be there, and that
tbe meeting would culminate in a
riot, which would end no one could
tell when or wbere. ' Tbe authorities
acted promptly and with discretion.
The National guard was ordered
under arms, and a very large number
of social po'.ice were sworn in. They
gave the Communists permission to
bold their meeting, but gave them to
understand tbat the place would be
sarrounded by police, and tbat at tbe
first intimation of disorder the milita.
ry would be brought into requisition,
and that there would be no balf-way
work about it. Tbe leaders saw that
tbe authorities meant business, and
tbey instructed tbeir followers to
keep the peace, which fortunately lor
themselves tbey. Tbe meeting was
a fizzle, and with tbe fizzle ended tne
hopes of tbe roughs of Xew York, to
inaugurate a riot here.
Tbe effect upon business bas been
terrible. Immense masses of freights
lie in tbe depots, there is no regulari
ty in mails, and the influx of strangers
into tbe city bas almost ceased.
Trade is almost as entirely at a stand
still, as it is in Pittsburgh. But it
can't last. Men may stand and
swing clubs and yell, a few days, but
tbey have got to eat, and. food was
never got by swinging clubs and
yelling. Tbe Pennsylvania road is
now open, and tbe others will be in a
day or two; aud the regular flow of
business will begin again.
THE COM ML SB LEADERS. ' ;
John Swinton, the ablest of the
lot, has been connected with the press
of Xew York, for a quarter a eentury.
He is a man of above tbe average
weight and height, with a good-natured
face, surmounted by a bald
crown. He got his notions of liberty,
fraternity and equality in Paris, and
is as radical' ft Republican as ever
lived. He is an excellent writer and
au indefatigable worker, and is honest,
lie makes no money out of it, nor Is
he in these movements because of
any hank?ring for notoriety. He is
a good speaker, and is a favorite with
tbe reds, ' '
Justus II. Scbwab, is a German of
perhaps forty-five, who professes to
spend all his time brooding over the
wrongs of the laboring man, which
does sot interfere however with his
selling a great deal of lager-beer to
the Oppressed, which his wife draws.'
In times like these Schwab does a
splendid business, and it is shrewdly
suryeclt Jll)Br"tia is not averse to
popular . demonstrations. He holds
tbat property is robbery, that there
should be an immediate divide, m&
tbat a rich man ia ft criminal. . He is
a tall blubde, very powerful and mus
cular, and bas a wonderful influence
over tbe long-haired of his race.
Thompson, tbe other .leader, is a tall,
dyspeptic Englishman, who was an
agitator in his native country. He
is a man ot soma eloquence cf tbe
kind known as gab. He can talk be
tbe hour of the "rights of man," any
the "oppression of labor," with all thd
rest of that flap-doodle which such
fellows have vexed tbe world with
for so many years. u .. 3 . .....
' At tbe beginning, Schwab and
Thompson intended to precipiute
riot, bnt the police comausaiooers
gave them to nnderataad that tbey
would be held responsible for any
trouble that might arise, and they
l.i i ik.:. ii - .i i
wisely hekl their folio wars in check.
But they will go right along aud
orgsnina societies "for the ameliora
tion of the condition of the laboring
man," and collect money and preach
communism, living tbo while rarr
comfortably on the eontriba lions of
their dapea. And toes whan strikes
come they will keep very quiet in the
back-ground out of range of shot and
shall, till tba fight is over, when they
will emerge and go through tba same
process again. Your professional
labor reformer, like the professional
reformer of any kind, is a most pesti
lent follow. It is to be observed that
he never tries to improve tbe condi
tion of the laboring man by the ex
ercise of the virtues of temperance,
bard work and saving not be. What
he wants is that tbo man who bos
earned and saved money ) shall be
compelled to divide it wittv tbe man
who has squandered all thai be earns,

The rioters don't, apparently ?seem
to know that every dollar .tbey e-
stroyad thay haso Xo pay in tne eaa,
Tb eonnties; cirieft od States are
resDonsible "for the destruction- of
property, and crery dollar burnt will

think that the property-holders wHl
pay it,- but they are mistaken... ,It
all comes out of the labor In tbe end ;
tbe mobite who lives" by theft is tbo
gainer, for he never pays anything
but tbe honest worker deluded into
these movements, will find the bills
charged up to him in tbe end, and he
will settle them. - It Is a very serious
matter. About five millions were De
stroyed in Pittsburgh; which ia about
$32per head for all tb men, women
and children ic the city.' ; Rioting is
a costly amusement.' 7' "' -u-d v:

that bas long been idlo is out in active
service once more, ana. ice gooa
effects are being felt everywhere, up
to tbe time of the strike, buyers were
coming in freely, and there seemed to
be a certain promise of the renewal of
business we bave beentso long wait

duration, and ,. then AJ,be great, the
generous tide will set .thitherward,

llorrlbie Calamity.
' PiTTsmruoH,' August I 1S7T, At
twenty minutes before 5 o'clock yes
terday afternoon a numoer oi em
ploycs at tbe foundry of Messrs. .ToU
ten & Uo., on tbe corner ot i wenty
fourth street and the Allegheny Val
ley Railroad, were engaged at Casting
a chilled roll. Nearly two tons of
iron were required to--make the. cast
iug, and tbe services ' of 1 twenty men
were required to handle "it. While
they were pouring tbe molten metal
into tbe mould :tbere "was a sudden
and terrific report, which was follow
ed bv a shower of liquid iron. Tha
red-hot metal flew in every direction,
and dropped in splotches ' bpon and
about the terrified workmen.' Realizing
the horror of their situation tbe men
ran to escape tbe shower, in tbeir
terror dropping1 the ladle which yet
contained most of the "metal. ' The
ladle wan overturned and immediate
ly great streams' Bhot out in qaick
pursuit of the flying laborers. Two
of tbe workmen, closely1 followed by
streams of tbe red-hot iron,' fell Into
adjoining pits, and the' metal ran in
opon them, burning ttwir flesh to a
crisp in many places. -ew ot tbe
horrible calamity sprean with remark
able rapidity, and in a few moments
the shrieks of women 'and children
living in tbe -vicinity were- added to
tbe groans of tbe injured men. Peo
ple rushed frantically to tbo foundry
with pallid countenances, wnngiog
tbeir hands in anguish aud pitcougly
calling in God's name to learn if their
friends had escaped . tbQ excruciating
tortnre. Arriving at the scene of tbe
disasier tbey were still more appalled
ftt tbe horrible scenes which met their
gaze. Lying in one of the pits was
man with here .aad there hi$ face
burned to ft crisp, and his eves literal
ly burnt out of his head, while in
their places the: pockets were 'filed
with chunks of chilled metal. 'This
man was George 1 Ebbert of Alle
gheny. . In another pit ., was 1 lying
Walter Moran. . One of his eyes, too,
was literally - burnt, from the socket
by tbe : cruel metal, while his face,
breast, arms, and hands were burned
to a crisp at different plates. ;' Here
and there tbe red hot metal had actu
ally eaten its way to tbe bones of the
victim. Other men were' lying about
with their breasts, arms, and legs se
verely burned, and the scene was
certainly tbo . most heart-rending
which ba been presented in 1 this
city for manyXIong day.
