EfttTlSH udeor tm ntd av SXeettasT tteAaaee Orders. IjOxdo, Feb. 9. Ten thousand Socialists met in Clerkenwell last evening for the fur pose of holding a meeting and subsequently marching in procession in defiance of the government Hundreds of mounted police were on the spot, but their presence did not prevent 'the speakers from giving utterance to most incendiary speeches. An attempt on the part of the Socialists was made to light torches preparatory to forming a procession, but the police interfered and the mob breaking into three parties and taking throe different routes.

This piece-' of rendered the -force of police on the -ground wholly- inadequate to 'control the entire, number of corapelli ug the former to also divide itself into three parts. The Socialist contingent which inarched in the direction of the city armed themsulTes with pieces of granite which were lying loosa in the street where they were needed to repair the pavement, and began smashing the windows of shops and bouses en route. Tbe crowd; attempted to loot a butcher's shop, but were met at the door by the owner; who emptied a revolver into the mob, driving them away, but doing nobody injury. The rioters were; met at Hewgate by a strong force, of police and -t quickly dispersed. Several of the mob were arrested.

The sections of the original mob which started westward from Clerkem veil sustained a gradual depletfon of numbers, before any damage Wi I done and disappeared, thanks to VERY IMPORTANT. em, a wallet eontaiaina; a 8 am of money, some keys and a receipted bill.

The fort Riclunood coal habdlert signed an agreement with Mr. CorbJn, the terms of which are not known, except that they avert a strike there An-erroneons Impression appears to prevail that Mr. Corbin is acting in some way for the chief ooal 'carrfers other thaa Reading, but this is-not Bam Sloan, of the i Delaware, Lackawanna and Western; Le Grand B. Cannon, of the Delaware and Hudson, and President Little, Of the Jersey Central, say very emphatically that they will have no negotiations looking to a compromise Of the strike: r.

Th staonary- engineers who called -on Mr. Corbin on Thursday understood hi no to say that he could speak for the Reading, the Jersey Central and the Ne York and Susquehanna, of which last road Mr. Frederick A. Potts is president -He designated James R. Maxwell to represent'; him, and-the Knights delegated Timothy of the Ocean association," to 'represent them.

The Knights say that Mr. Corbin offered at 3nca to pay 21 cents an hour, but that the whole questioii was referred to Mr. Maxwell and Mr. Putnam. The notion of the Knights that if they como to "terms with Reading competition will compel the other large coal carriers to make terms or be driven ont of the market.

Mr. Corbm went to rtiladelphla yesterday- to confer with a committee of Reading -em ployes. Mr. Putnam met Mr. Maxwell for short talk in the "morning, and is to see turn to-day.

The belief is general that the majority of the strikers would be glad to get back to work, audit is reported that the staye dores have re-engaged some of the strikers and put them to work A freight handler at pier 4 writes that the report that the strikers were paid from $50 to $o5 each for January Is not correct, and that he himself worked all the time and got but $42 and a few cents.
