CHICAGO, November 9.—About 9000 men reported for work at the Union stock yards this morning. Everything is quiet; no disturbance of any kind has been reported to-day. The soldiers started on their rounds at 5 o’clock and patrolled the entire district. Most of the men who come to the yards are brought in by the train. There were no assaults on them as far as known. Chicago, November 9.—The names of Swift A Co., Morris & Co. aud the Union Stock Yards and Transit Company were added to the agreement adopted at. yester day’s meeting of the packers, which de clares that hereafter no men belonging to any labor organization will be employed by them. The paper has been signed by all the houses doing business at the stock yards ns well as by the stock yard com pany. The first excitement of to day at the stock yards occurred at 1 o’clock this afternoon. At that hour word was sent to the headquarters of the deputy sheriffs that their services wore needed at Forty- third and Ashland avenues. Fifty deputies immediately hurried to the place and were immediately followed by four com panies of militia. An investigation was made, and it was found that four deputies who had been left to patrol an alley in the vicinity had been fired ou by some un known parties. The fire was returned but the aggressors escaped. Chicago, November 9.—With the excep tion of the mysterious shooting at one of the deputy sheriffs this afternoou, t..e day at the stock yards has been uneventful. There are between 3000 and 4000 men at work. There was very litle disorder. The strikers early discussed the resolution of the employers not to allow any man to re turn to work on any terms or for any num ber of hours unless he had foresworn his organization. The militia mounted guard within, and the sheriff's force and Town of bake police preserved peace as best they could outside the yard. Several iso lated cases of assault took place aud a couple of houses were stoned, but no or ganized mob violence or resistance to au thority took place. Gen. FitzSimmons and 800 troops of the first brigade seemed to thipk to-aay that their Btay in Packing Town would-not;-be so brief nor so pleasaut as some of.them* had anticipated. A cold, drizzling rain fell all 'day, ami those who. had been assigned to early morning duty; :lglt it most keenly. Wearing their blue oape over coats and small fatigue caps, the pickets wherever stationed tramped back aud forth in mud and slime. Those who were young olerks down town did not regard it its an agreeable occupation, t his soldiering. There were rumors this afternoou that General Master Workman Powderly had been-requested to come to Chicago and use hi* best effbrts to effect a settlement be tween the packers and their strik ing employes. It is known that Barry is ; in constant communication with Powderly, but wheth er the general master workman has con sented to come west cunnot be ascertained. Barry came into the city to day and called on Mr. Boteford, of the packers commit tee. He asked whether it was true ‘•that resolutions had been passed insist ing that the striking Knights of f<abor should renounce their order as a condition precedent to being re-employed?” Bots- ford replied that such was the case. Barrv Baid very little else and loft. The" majority of the strikers seem to rejoice over the resolutions against the Knights of Labor that have been adopted by the packers. “I think we were in the wrong when this last strike was ordered,” said one of the lenders to a reporter to-day. “but the packers by their outlawry reso lutions have put us in the right. Yester day the general assembly of the knights could not consistently take up our tight, to-da.v and from this on they will be bound todo battle for us.” “Our order has been attacked and every officer and member must stand up for us.” “Will Powderly coine?” the speaker was asked. “I don’t know,” he replied; “but i think he will. If he does not he will send along several of his most trusty lieutenants. We are being victimized; being told that we must forswear ourselves, and he must do something decisive and do it promptly. This thing would be laughable if it weie not serious. Thousands of men will starve before they will agree to the humiliating conditions forced upon them.” Barry has a dispatch from Powderly, m which the grand master workman re pudiates all interviews on the strike, and offers to send assistance to the representa tive of the executive board here if he needs it. The railroadB are helping the packers in every way, as a speedy close of the strike is of the greatest possible moment to them. All the roads coming in here are offering to bring workmen here and transmit them free of charge in case they are dissatisfied. At Armour’s down town offices about fifty men were out in the hallway awoiting transpoitatlon to the houses at the yards. About 100carpenters quit work at Swift’s to-day. A Bhort time ago the firm gave them an advance of 25 cents a day and nine hours work. They stopped to-day, however, and joined the ranks'of those fighting for eight hours. . ... The following no ice was issued to-day by the Knights of Labor: "Notice—Butch ers, mechanics and laborers are warned to keep away from the stock yards, as the men are on a strike. By order of the com mittee.” , , The master workman of the butchers assembly, Sylvester Gaunt, has resigned his office because of his inability to satisfy the men, and because he is thoroughly dissatisfied with the actions of Bai-rv. But ler and Marshall and several members ol the assembly agree with the master work man and the assembly seem to be in a lair way to be entirely dissolved. A Council’, Resolution. Charleston, November 9.—The city council of Charleston adopted unanimously to-day the following resolutions: “Whereas, in view of the •mysterious and sudden calamity which has befallen our city, and which has been so bravely nier by all our people, there is urgent need for renewed exertions to extend the commerce- and business of this port; and, whereas no more potent influence to achieve this desired end can now be exerted than by the all powerful agency of the government of the United States in the rapid completion of the jetties now in progress, through which means Charleston will be; come a deep water harbor, now regarded as the prime necessity in extending the commerce of this natural outlet and em porium of the south Atlantic states, and whereas, it is in the power of the forty ninth congress to hasten this great work to a speedy and successful result by appro pria'ing in the early days of the ensuing session the whole amount necessary for fully coaipl.lli:# ;U ^ruil national i-roj-cl, and thus practically emphasize by prompt and appreciative action, he general sym pathy with Charleston so universally felt aud generously expre «u i by the people of the United States at thiSficritical time; bo it 1 herefore Resolved, That the city council of Charleston memorialize the general assem bly of South Carolina at its ensuing ses sion for the setting forth of the paramount necessity for the curliest possible com pletion of the jetties, and asking the legis lature to take such action as will present this essential matter for the future of the port of Charleston and the com merce of this south Atlantic port and in j federal prison, and approved the bill of.

London, November 9.—Jan-d mayor’s day opened gloomy und dark. There are few signs in the city to indicate that this is the any for the lord mayor’s show. The display of hunting and decoration of build ings, usually made on this occasion, is almost generally omitted, and the authori ties and populace seem itnbucd with a sense of oppression. This condition is due to the anxiety for the result of the threat ened gathering of socialists to-dny. The police have made all possible arrangements for resisting any attempts at disorder. At an early hour shoals of roughs began to emerge from the slums and mak TO THE RESIDENCE OK THE MARQUIS OP SALISBURY and attempted to make a demonstration there. They were, howover, dispersed easily by the police. For a long time alter tlie close of the proceedings in Trafalgar square large crowds of men Hauntered through the streets. Several ugly rushes occurred between them and the police, but nothing of a serious nature happened, and but little hooting was done. Mounted police were everywhere hooted and groan ed at by tho moving mob. Hrlglum. A THOUSANDWOMBN IN BLACK. Brussels,Nov. 9.—-One thousand women dressed in black arrived here to-day in a body from Charleroi to petition for am nesty to the men convicted of participation in the labor riots of lust March.

Ihc burgci niastei, however, police proceeding by ent points received hearty cheers from tho people. Tlie streets of the city and West End present a remarkable appearance. All the shutters of the shops are drawn and barricaded and iron railings are guard ed with stout timber. Banks and other buildings are secured in a similar manner. These precautions arc not confined to buildings on the route of the lord mayor’s procession, but extend to streets far re moved, The suburban police and reserves have been posted at prominent points and a large military force and nil the house hold troops uro iu readiness, if their assistance is needed. At 11 o’clock a force of police occupy the north side of Trafalgar square. Shops in tlie vicinity are cUmed and the doors and windows of jewelry establishments heavily barred. Hundreds of students armed with sticks have ^gathered about the square. A crowd of loafers arrived and were allowed to proceed to the en trance of the square. There they were met by a double line of police and turned into the strand. Tbe mounted police cleared the roadway. The throng at Tra falgar square is increasing to vast propor tions. Tho polide keep admirable order. Sir Charles Warren, commissioner of the metropolitan police visited the square this morning and indicated the positions to which policemen should be assigned. A trifling encounter occurred in Trafal gar square at about noon. Thu mob, about 800 strong, marching in a body, wbb baited by tho police and separated. Tho police then cleared the square, and pushed the crowd towards the Thames embankment. There the mob halted, and hooted and groaned at tho officers. Throo hundred medical students inarching five abreast, and armed with heavy bludgeons', pro refused to permit this, but allowed the del egation to present their petition at the city hall. The women were greeted at the rail way station by u great crowd who cheered them heartily. ON CHANGE. The Msi-kst AtTrctml lo the bailor Troubles. New York, November 9.—The stook market to-day, while somewhat less active, presented tlie same general features that it has for some days past. The labor troubles in Chicago and London were im portant topics of conversation, and the effect Was principally to restrict transac tions. Foreign interests sold a little stock, but not enough to materially affect prices. Fluctuations were narrow,especially in tho usual active list, nnd Jersey Central, St. Paul nnd Union Pacific were the only stock coining under that head whioh dis played any fife. Richmond and West Point was the most active stock, especially In early trading, when it made a handsome advance. A few of the inactive stocks were advanced sharply, among which were Memphis aud Charleston, Vir ginia Midland, and Oregon Improvement. Mobile and Ohio also became prominent in the afternoon. With the stock of the bituminous coal companies opening tame and inclined to heaviness, the declines from the closing figures of lost evening were from 9 to while u large proportion of the active list remained unchanged. There was a moderate business in the first hour, and in early dealings prices were firm,Richmond and West Point being notar bly strong. Early gains were generally lost by noon, after which the market became „ ... very dull but firm, specialies coming inte ceedod along the strand to aid the police., prominence. Toward the close the market The Life Guards were drawn up and form-- again steadied but remained witbont foot ed a cordon across White Chapel, shutting out the East End socialists. The Life Guards in passing through Victoria street Wore saluted with groans by a small knot of roughs. But the majority of the collected orowds watched their progress in silence. Two socialists called upon Sir Charles Warren to-duy and requested an answer to their letter of yes terday, inquiring why the proposed soc-la list demonstration had been prohibited.

The Soots guards were mustered in St. George’s barracks behind the National guards. Tlie crowd about Trafalgar square at 1 o’clock had grown colossal, the rough element predominat ing.

Recognized socialist lenders man aged here and there to gather around them groups of men ready and willing to listen to speeches, and although most of the harangues were inaudible at any distance from tlie orators,' yet expressions and phrazes were often caught by the mob and used as topics of heated debate among the auditors themselves. In this way the vast crowd was soon divided up into NUMBERLESS EXCITED GROUPS, each stirred up by its own spokesmen aud all independently noisy and excited. The police did not attempt to interfere with the rush of the mob into the square, but formed a strong cordon around it. Among the speakers who addressed the groups was Williams, a socialist leader. He spoke from the foot of the Nelson monument. He declared that the populace would show they could hold an orderly meeting to let the public know the amount of distress which at present existed among the work ing men of England. Another speaker said, “All tbe power of the country was in voked ta prevent us from assembling in Tra falgar square. Our reply to all this is that WE ARE HERE . I do not desire to use rash language, but I mean all I say. We want food, work and dwelling places for all, and all will have them. The socialists have pledged the unemployed of London that they would make tills demonstration to-day to con trast before the world the extreme pov erty of London’s unemployed with the extreme wealth and plenty of the city’s upper clnsses, mid the socialists have kepi their word. We have given this answer to Hir Charles Warren. Resolutions ofthe proper kind will be adopted and they will tie sent to the Marquis of Salisbury aud to Lord Churchill, ana they will be compelled to listen to them. The socialists will con tinue their work until every vestage of tyranny shall be swept away. Our organ ization is the only oue which daers to take the proper position on behalf of tbe poor and oppressed. We are not here to break the peace; we are here to agitate in a peaceful manner for work for all and over work for none.” Resolutions asking the government to provide work for the unem ployed and to reduce to eight, the number of hours constituting a day’s work, were carried amid loud cheering, and the group ! which adopted them and which hud by this time absorbed pearly all the multitude reniaining in the square dispersed, cheering for the promised social revolu tion. Most of the people who had com posed this audience at once went away. Others loitered about and joined various tL:ongs attracted to the Seeiiu. A number doubtful whether my employment iutbera. would bo beneficial or sat sfactory to the public. But I have n further reason for declining the office. An exami nation of this kind, I am told, is treated ns a sort of entertainment given to the commissioners by the official* of the road subjected to the examination. Free.rides in palace cars, free quarters at hotels, and u hospitality which is at the same time generous and selfish, are com monly extended. A favorable report, however, just .lies under the report or having been purchased. On the other v "-d the commissioner who refused all favo -a cannot more than earn the ex penses of ordinary travel. I am a poor man; depending upon my work for my income, and cannot afford to take thus appointment. In accepting my declination please also accent my respectful acknow ledgments. Gideon J. Tucker.
