Another excellent result of the suppression of the General Labour Union some days ago was the signing' of an agreement on day afternoon, by which the st ea far as British mills were concerned, was settled.
'The exact. details' of the settlement are nots yet "avallable,' "beyond the' "fact that' they are similar to those which ended the strike at the Japanese mills. Work has already begun on the cleaning and overhauling of machinery and engines. Some of the Isbourers are expected to resume work this morning, but the majority will probably not return for a few days, as the work of a cleaning and "overhauling will occupy some time.
The report is confirmed by the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, which signed the agreement on behalf of the workers, and by mill managers.
