TELEGRAPHERS STRIKE DISRUPTS SERVICE. A great public disaster in a strike that closes the avenues of public knowledge of the affairs of the world has occurred, the operators of the great telegraph companies having deserted their instruments to secure redress of a chapter of grievances. How long this state of ailairs is to continue is not clear, but in view of the magnitude of the inconvenience, not to say suffering, bound to be inllicted on the whole people, it is to be hoped some means of accommodation and compromise may be speedily reached. To its many readers Daily Racing Form says that the necessarily delayed particulars of racing over the tracks now in operation will be furnished as soon asit can be done, and as complete in details as if no strike had occurred. In the meantime it counsels patience and moderation.
