Wasxixstox, Hay J.-To-morrow It Is expected wUl begin the struggle between tbe master builders of this city aad their journeymen and other employes over tbe Xigat'Hoar question. Kverything points to a 'prolonged dead-lock, which many fear will almost paralyse bathling operations for tbe season, as the deserters oa either side an few. The classes which aalte in the demand for eight hours Include tbe bricklayers, carpenters, plasterers, stone-cutters, marble-workers, plumbers, painters, tinners, brick-makers," bod-carriers, blacksmiths aad ice-drivers, embracing in all nearly n. ikiuumd bmib. who averace a net

diem of S.W. The men say they will insist oa eight hours being considered a day's work, ami if tbe employers do not accede to their desires they are at perfect liberty to dismiss all the workmen. Oa this point the Knights of Labor are determined that no strike shall occar, prefer, ring that tbe men shall be locked oot by tbe employers. Mr. E. W. Oyster, the president of tbe Federation of Labor, says tbe mea are firmly resolved to iaslst oa the redaction of boors, but If work Is suspended to-morrow, as it probablv will be, there will be no violence and no efort to obtala kr fnni ihf mB XnCt S right.

The scheme Is for tbe men of every trade to go to work at half-past seven to-morrow morning and work until 4 p. m., nules tbe bosses tell them that they are not to do so win tbe expectation of fall wacee for tbe eight boars' work. The master painters have jdven pebttc notice to tne men that ten hoars mast constitute

a days' work at fall pay aereatier a heretofore, while a number of contractors on work already ia progress have notified the mea that they will accede to the demand for eight hours. a GREAT DEMONSTRATION IX BALTIXOM. Baltixorx, Hd., May Aa Immense hrtor demonstration wttl be held in this city to-day, consisting of a monster parade, followed by a grand picnic at Scheotsen Tark, where tabor addresses will be made. It is estimated that 15,009 will be in line, and white tbe demoa-

stratkm is ostensibly in favor of the Eight-Hoar system, yet there is no aeaaimitv oa that particular paint by the various Knlghta ot Labor assemblies and labor organizations. Of ooorse many of

the traces win conicwi ' "-' hot there are many more which will accept a reduction to nine hours, and as ia the case of the botchers and brewers, who now work from fourteen to seventeen boon dally, ten boors will be asked. Ia fact, the bosses of the botchers and brewers have already vlrtaally agreed to concede tea boon a day, at tbe old wages, to tbe mea. Tbe furniture-workers at a meeting yesterday received communications from twenty shops, employing hundred mea, that they woW adopt the SlgbtHour system, while tea shops refused, and tbe two hundred men employed therein will strike to-day. . Two thousand carpenters and jomere have asked for eight hoars, and ban

The same may he said of tbe Varnlshcrs' and Oil Finishers' Assembly. The live bondrnd plane makers, of whom four hundred are emptoved by Wm.

tbe leaden of the Ananbhrt party wen directly responsible for the "Orll" method which rlt4 inTudy night's slaughter, that doubt was dispelled by tbe evidence which for five solid hour was on Wedaosday presented to the coroner's jury. Tbe Infant, whleh we behl upon tbe body of Oncer Jno. leega, was held ia tbe one of tbe city clerk in the city bulking. Tbe accused, August ftpies, Cbri Spies, 8am KleMea and Michael Schwab, wen brought Into tbe jarv room la idngie fin, wltb foar stalwart oatceni oa either ski, aad 1 were riven seaU oa a bench to tbe left of the jarv. August Spies, tbe areh-HHiHretor, was perfecttT self poeeessed aad anlbMi sardonically almost tbroughowt tbe proceedings. His youaw brother looked 111 at ease, while Schwab, a typical Commaaist ta appearance, and Fteklen, a bloated, dirty-looking foreigner of the back-country tyi-e, listened attentively to the testimony, now smiling, acala frownlag, aad occasionally, displaying indications of neivonsnest. The evidence was first directed to proving tbe incendiary chancier of the utterance at the meetlwr which preceded the bomb-tbrowinc. ami to do this Ofiteer t iui imh! 1111 and Kdward w .

were, tbe speakers of tbe night, and that -i,ik tk. iidreses of Soles ami Flelden

were of an iafiammatory character, they wen more moderate than others they had delivered oa the lake front and elsewhere. The speech, of rations was ot tbe most violent type, directly calculated to incite the mob to riot, and winding up with tbe words: "To arms! to arm! to arms! If you love your wives, if you love your children, rise op acainst capital." From this point tbe inquiry was directed to tb throwing of tbe bomb. Oftlcer Haas wa.- vlthin a few feet of the spot where tbe expo.lve fell, and his evidence, which was concurred In by tbe other witnesses, was to tbe elect that It came from behind a pile of boxes upon tbe Lvit tit mnwr of the allev on

Desptaines street above Bandolph. Captain Ward, who with Captain Boaebl marched at the bead of the police, Mid ia answer to one of the jurymen that be bed never bad Instructions to request tbe Anarchists to delist from iafiammatorv speeches although he understood that sock instructions had been given to other officers at various times. Now tbe inquiry was directed to the character of the explosive, and in this branch much startling and unexpected

testimony was introduced. "I made a search of the ArbrUtr Zktf once," Oflkrer Martin Harks testified. "On a shelf la the recess of Mr. Spies' private room I found a boodle narked Adams Express Company.' This be contained a lot of sawdust, sand and altro-glycerine. It looked exactly the same aa what we found on Desplatnes street after tbe bomb exploded last night,

only It was not so nam. "It came wbtalng through the air like a fire-cracker or sqoib,"sakl the witness "and I thought It was one or the other, bat tbe moment It touched tbe ground, there was a terrific report, and through tbe smoke I saw tbe ofikers mown down like grass. Tbe same moment firing commenced like tbe roaring of cannon. I heard some of tbe snots come from behind the boxen from where the bomb was thrown." All tbe witoesses-acreed that, judging from tbe applause and the guying of the peakers occasionally indebted ia, not aiore than five hundred of tbe gathering were in sympathy with the Anarchist sentiments enunciated.

The witness described tne esect oi m

explosion upon some rocks underneath whKb It was placed. Fragments of the bowlders were carried away inmease distance. , , . , "Most of tbe stuff," concluded the officer, " stored ia the vault, and one of our men, who Is aa expert, says there is enough in it to blow op the building." Tbe jory were oot half an hour before agreeing upon a verdict. The jory held all of the prisoners to tbe grand jury without bail, ami also recommended that Parsons be apprehended and held. The Terdkt. when read in the city clerk's office, VM londly applauded by tbe anxious spectators. The prisoners were returned

to their celts ia the basement. A meter of Aagast Spies came to the Central station to-day, and after constderebie talking Lteatenaat Klpiey elicited from her tbe confession that a third brother, who was la last night's affray, was lying dangerow ill at his home. It Is tbooght that he will die. Mrs. A. R. Parson, the wife of the fugitive Aaarchmt, was arrested this afternoon, and was locked np.

That remarkable specimen of New Jersey statesmanship, William Walter Fttelp. made a most amusing misstatement of the question between Mr. Vilas and the subsidy grabbers, bringing in entirely irrelevant subjects, from the Prosidential succession to the silver question. He mado no effort to explain away the discretionary power left to the PostnMtnr.niiiiril hr the verv bill about

which he talked so glibly and he was suggestirelv silent on the desperate effort made by the subsidy lobbv and the manipulation nt tb rrmifrironoe Committee. The

Pacific Mail Company was evidently disheartened this time and abandoned tbe field to Mr. Phelps, who was any thing but comfortable in his isolation. The subsidy lobby in Washington have discovered'that this is not tbe kind of Administration calculated to give them any consolation and that the temper of the Hon? was decidedly against them. Even Mr. Bingham, of Pennsylvania, was forced to acknowledge that the Post-oftJee bill without a subsidy was

There is not so much talk in political circles as there was a few weeks ago, about tbe President's failure as a party leader. The President was not a politician, in the ordinary sense of the word, before he entered the White vtaao ,nil tu im not develoned much

of tbe politician's talent since he has been there. The management of the Government is to him a busine matter.

He doe not take to the dicker ami trade of politics as practiced by many of the gentlemen in Congress. The talk about his want of leadership originated in two different quarters.
