EIGHT HOUR AGITATION. One Week's Results in Ohicaaorr- Some Interesting Statistics, '' A'Ohicago dispatch states that. th?rfcsultii. of the first week of the agitation, for eight 'haul's a s a day's labor in that, qity ar e inter- esting. They are : Matthew J. Deegau, John J. Barrett, Charles Mueller, Timothy Flavin an d Nicholas Shehan, five a s bfava an d good police officers a s there were on th e Chicago police force, an d every man with a family de- pendent upon him , dead; Eeignholtz Krueger, Joseph Voj'tek, Fran k Louis, Charles Keisler, Joseph Stramek, an d Mat- thew Blank, workmen with families depend- ent upon them, dead; one more policeman dying, two policemen in danger of death, a score more maimed or injured for life, and . twenty-five more suffering from wounds ranging from slight to serious, and nineteen* workmen known t o b e wounded, with th e probability that a s man y more havo been in- jured, but concealed and cared for b y their friends. Fully 3,000 men , earning on a n average $1.50 a day, had their demand for eight hours refused, and remained idle dur- ing the week. A New York Mercantile Agency gives statistics of the eight-hour movement show- ing that the total number of workmen en- gaged in i t i n all parts of the country is 335,- 000. The demand for shorter hours has been conceded t o lf>0,000 without a strike an d t o 35,000 after-striking, leaving 140,000 still on Strike or defeated. The trades in which th s movement has been most successful are those connected with house building, agricultural implement makers, furniture making, an d machinery building. FALL OF A WALL. Eight Men Killed and Six Injured in Minneapolis. The side wall of a five-story building in Minneapolis, Minn., fell out the other after- noon, burying thirty men who wero a t work in an excavation adjoining. Of these eleven escaped uninjured, a s they were warned b y the cracking of th e timbers, but eight were killed outright and six seriously injured. The building wa s a ne w live-story brick structure, on tho northeast corner of Second street and First avenue, south. Th e floors were supported b y ,two parallel rows of heavy wood columns, resting upon largo square timbers, runnin g from front t o rear of th e building. I n this temporar y wood work was th e weak spot. The workmen wero excavating a t one side of tho building for a n addition. The wall was removed, ,and the weight of the. accumulated material o n ' the.^oors and roof caused the disaster*. War \Ptfeparatlims Between the Two Countries.

Amon g the buildings burne d were th e Chi- nese and Siamese bazaars. The hostility of th e natives wh o remaiu loyal t o the dethroned King Theebaw t o the Chinese is intense, because of China's openly avowed endorsement of Great Britain's seiz- ure of Burmah. Th e officers commanding the British forces havo telographed t o Lord Dufferin, the Viceroy, tha t they are power- less t o prevent th e rebellious rioting of the natives, an d have urgently askoA fo r rein- forcements.

A conflict between (ho Greek an d Turkish troops appears al- most certain. Al l th e foreign Minister!. have embarked o n th e vessels of their re- spective nations. Th e Turkish Minister, TewfUt Bey, has also embarked, takin g wit h him all the members of the staff of th e legation and caused all his an d their personal effects': to be removed. The secretaries of the other foreign legations will remai n i n an unofficial capacity for a tim e a t least. Th e Russian Minister did not leave when the other repre- sentatives departed, no t havin g been in- structed t o do so. The Powers hav e given orders t o their fleets t o blockade the Greek ports. The populace of Athens i s enthusiastic over the prospects of a war wit h Turkey. Th e soldiers are parading th e city singing patri- otic songs and are everywhere cheered b y the, crowds lining the streets. Two battalions of the Athens garrison have started for the frontier. Th e soldiers receive th e order to start with deafening cheers, i n which they ar e joinod b y thousands of people outside th e barracks. They will embark a t Lauriu m in order to avoid tho blockaders stationed by tho Pow- ers lot cover th e other wate r routes. Th e Greek reserves a t Volo and Valestino hav e beou pushed t o the front, and the regiment designated as the King's Escort is ready to start fpr the front a t a n hour's notice. Th e utmost enthusiasm prevails in official circles, the Government having announced its inten- tion of defending Greek Territory against any and all. advances of foreign soldiers. Little is known.to the public respecting th e movements of Turkisn troops near th e frontier. It i s expected, however, tha t th e Turkish army will make Thessoly the scene of the warlike operations. Th e indications point to a Turkish advance by way of La - rissa. Th e Peloponnesian army ha s been ordered t o Thessaly to meet th e anticipated Turkish advance. It is known tha t Turke y ha s long been preparing, for th e struggle and ha s mad e arrangements t o throw lOOjOOO men across the .&6iifcler/^riie.-,aHirk3.have been hordat work. Fo r f?wo hours i n the mornin g and two in the afternoon they have each day handled pick an d shovel, drilled in companies o r battalions or manosuvered i n brigades or divisions. They have fortified every place of vantage, placed batteries on each piece of rising ground com- manding th e roads, an d i n a word, are i n splendid fighting trim. The Greek troops on th e other side of th e frontier have been passing the tim e in com- E arative idleness. Their heaviest work ha s een sentry duty, an d there ha s been n o manceuvermg an d scarcely any drill. They have not erected one fort or placed a single battery in position. According t o a recent account, the Greek troops were scat- tered. There were only 5,000 me n at Tirnova and 7,000 at Larissa, though 100,000 meu are under arms (on paper) and probably 30,000 i n reality. Close t o th e frontier re- cently there were twenty-one infantry battal- ions, twent y batteries of artillery and 13,000 reserve troops within an hour's marc h of their camp. The first engagement of th e war, if i t ma y b e so called, wa s a t Kutra , near Zttrkos, where th e Greeks took up po- sitions in th e first week in April. Eyou b Pacha an d General Retzel called upon. General Sapontzakis to retire before 4o'clocl|jS' on April 10. Bu t General Sapontzakis, ha-fBi ing received reinforcements, refused t o d o so™ and still occupies the height, which command' the plain of Larissa as far as Tirnova. Though the Greek troops ar e no t so well drilled or officered as the Turkish battalions, it is expected tha t they will mak e u p i n en- thusiasm for wha t they ma y lack in organi- sation. AN INFEENAL MACHINE.. Description of one Discovered o y the Chicago Police. A fe w days after th e terrible onslaught upon the Chicago police by the bomb-throw- ing Anarchists, tho la w officers discovered a quantity of dynamite material. One bomb wa s formod of a shell of lead about fou r inches in diame- ter, an d a s round a s an orange. The shell i s cast i n two parts. The two cups are fastened together by an iron boltmuning' through, fastened a t the top b y a three-quar- ter inch nut, just like th e one found in. the hole supposed t o have been made bytb e bom b on Desplaines street. The bomb is filled with the explosive an d some iron bullets. I n th e shell near th e nu t a hole one-eighth of an inph in diameter has been drilled, an d in this a fuse wa s found inserted. Th e entire bom b fastened together weighs between ten an d sixteen ounces. I n another placo was found two pieces of ga s pipe, each about eight inches in length. Ono is about a n inch and the otheri'an inch and a half in diameter. The bottom of tho pipo is filled with lead cast in clay. The top, in which the fuse is placed, is made of a hea t block of wood. It wa s be - lieved tha t the me n who mado these bombs know who mad e the on e fired' at the police with such fatal effect.
