STRIKES.

In these times of strikes and contentions between employers of labour and their men the following, taken from the Gazette of Colonqe of June 28, and kindly translated for us, will not be read without some interest. Knipp's establishment is one of the largest of its kind, employing several thousands of artisans and labourers, and it is jiatisfactory to state that not one of them has left his employ : — " to the workmen of the c ast-steel Factory.

" Esseu, June 24. "Forty-five years ago I stood here as one of yourselves, amongst the ruins of this establishment, bequeathed to me by my late father. The wages for smiths and smelters had then been raised to 1\ groschen (9d) per day;- the week's wages was 1£ thalers (4s Gd). For fifteen years I just earned enough to me to pay the men ■ their wages, for my own labor and anxiety I had nothing but the satisfaction of ■ knowing that I had done my duty. With a favorable change in circumstances and continued prosperity of the works I gradually raised wages, as a rule voluntarily, anticipating any reminder to that effect, and this rule shall remain in force. One benefi cial arrangement succeeded another, and many are to be carried out yet; the utmost efforts have been made in the interest of the men ; new houses in course of erection now are counted by thousands. When during commercial panics all industries were pros trated ; when orders were scarce, I have ever > ontinued work without dismissing a single ■P* Rodman. There arig. many old ones here * tno can bear testimony to that fact Ask -—"^3hem what was done in 1848 for the work men. The sacrifices I had to bear during the subsequent wars are known to all. Who can calculate the losses through the pre sent coal famine? Mutual ° faith has raised this enterprise to what it is now. I know that I merit and possess your confidence, and therefore I now address you. I caution you, before having actual cause for it, against the fate which itinerant agitators and obscure newspapers are striving to pre pare for you under the mask of sympathy and abuse of religious and moral sentiments. Their harvest will commence when, by means of false pretences,^ they have : irreparably undermined the existence of your class; they are working for general disaster to allow them to fish in troubled water. Inquire into the past history of these apostles, their domestic and moral life; the contributions of the work men towards verbal and printed scandal are to them more convenient and easy mode

of livelihood than that offered by fair labour. The JBsSen News, an organ of Christian morality (?), is among others intent, by all sorts of inventions, upon casting suspicion on the management of my works, and brings a report yesterday that I have been com pelled to make considerable concessions to • a certain class of men. To these and similar barefaced lies of such enemies I 'now add the following caution and assurance. Nothing—no course of events will ever induce me to allow myself to be forced into any kind of concessions. The management with the goodwill which has hitherto charac terized it will continue to conduct the business in the spirit of my principles, and so long on any account as I can look upon my men in good faith as members of my establish ment, none of yo.u will doubt that any day I may transfer my position to others, nor that any company of capitalists will exceed me in my desire to do good, and make sacrifices if necessary. None of you will believe that merely from a desire for gain I have undergone the trouble and anxiety which is entailed in the management of such an undertaking on my own account. All of you know howl value the labourer and his work, but be assured that a disregard of my feelings would uproot my goodwill to you, and that I shallnot waver in my decision, nor make idle promises. I therefore caiition you once more against the temptations of a conspiracy against peace and quietness. With me the good faithful laborer has an opportunity of enjoying his pension, after a moderate period of woji'k, in a manner unsurpassed anywhere in the world. I expect and demand full confidence; I decline all discussion of un justified demands, as I have hitherto anticipated all just desires, and I therefore ask all those who are dissatisfied to quit, the sooner the better, in order to forestall my giving them notice, and thus lawfully leave the establishment to make room for others, with an assurance that I mean to be master of my own house.

(Signed) Alfred Krupp.

SUPREME COURT.

NISI PRIUS SITTINGS

(Before His Honor Sir G. A. Arney, Chief Justice, and a common jury.) \ , : ; His Honor took his seat at ten o'clock. '. KEIR V. THE GREEN HARP GOLD MINING COMPANY.

Claim, £500. Mr Hesketh appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr Whitaker for the defendants.

The Jury being empannelled, Mr Hesketh addressed them on the nature of the claim, and shewed that the plaintiff, John Keir, who had been a director of the Green Harp Gold Mining Company, had lent the defendants first a sum of £300, 4nd subsequently a further sum of £200, which form the ground of the present action. I i James Oaddey Davies, legal manager of the late Green Harp Gold Mining, Company,, was first called for examination, and stated that he was appointed legal manager, on the;' 2(sth of April, 1872. The plaintiff,' John was not then a director ; he had previously resigned his position .on the Board. He pro duced the books and rules of the compaixy. On the 20th of February a resolution ■ iyas passed by the directors, and another on: the 29th of May, relating to the borrowing of j;he Bums respectively of £300 j^tf #SJQQ,.: The

former sum was borrowed,, according to the resolution, for the purpose of defraying the expenses of the claim, and for the term of I six months, at not more than 7|d per cent, interest, and that the directors give a pro missory note for the same. On the 29th May, at the sitting of the Board, the Chairman was empowered to negotiate for a further sum of £200, for a term of two months, and at a subsequent meeting on the 3rd June the Chairman informed the directors that he had negotiated for the required sum with Mr Kier, at the rate of 15 per cent, per annum. Witness stated that these sxims were expended on the mine, and the company had the full benefit of the money. The sums so borrowed had been duly noted in the reports and balance sheet, which were read and approved at the annual general meeting held oh the 2*7 th of June. The whole of the shareholders were represented at that meeting, bivt only ninety-live out of the two hundred were present. At the request of Mr Whitaker, Mr Davis read the direc tors' report, the reading of which caused con siderable merriment in Court. The report was extremely flattering in its details, and concluded by warmly congratulating the shareholders on the unparalleled success of the Green Harp mine. In answer to Mr Hesketh witness stated that he received the last sum of £200 from Mr Keir, and paid it into the Bank to the company's account. Nothing Avas said about the borrowed money at the annual meeting, but questions were asked about amalgam. The sums borrowed were placed under the head of receipts in the balance sheet. A sum of £400 was borrowed from Mr Hull, who was induced to become a director, but who had been paid by one of the director's, and who he believed was a l»ier to that amount. The present directors refused to pay to Mr Keir the sums borrowed of him. In answer to Mr Whitaker witness said that when the money was advanced to the company Mr Keir was a shareholder, but not a director. At the annual meeting there was a majority in value, but not in numbers. • .The Chairman did not put the minutes after they were read for con firmation on account of the action which was pending, and becaixse, by confirming the minutes, they would acknowledge the present claim.

John Keir deposed that he became a shareholder on the Bth of August, 1871, but sold out in the following month. He bought in a second time in January, 1872, and was elected a director on the day of his lending the £300. . The jury retired for a few minutes, and returned with a verdict for the plaintiff. The defendants, through their, solicitor, expressed their determination to appeal" against the decision.
