A Steamships Crew Strikes and
Promptly Gain Their Point.
lily telegraph 10 the Dispatch


PHILADELPHIA, July "a When the time
arrived to-day for the steamship Illinois, OF
the American Line, TO sail for Liverpool,
the crew declined TO 20 aboard. and were
joined by the waters, fremen, cooks, and
mesS-men. Their action was caused by
the determination OF the company to take
advantage Of the new law known as the
Dingley shipping bill. which gives Ameri-
can companies TIE right to ship crews at
either or both OF the ports between which
their vessels run. When the American
sailors realized that they would either
have 10 take their discharge at Liver
pool or return home at seven dollars
= month less wages (the rate paid to Eng
lish sailors) they decided TO strike. The
company advertised for men to ship from
Philadelphia to Liverpool instead OF for the
round trip, but although many landsmen
applied the company was unable 10 enrol
u competent crew. At III O'Clock this
morning The Illinois had all her passengers
abosrd and a cargo valued at a quarter Of a
million dollars all shipped, but there was
no likelihood OF the sailors surrendering
and 80 the company yielded. The strikers
struggled IN one Ivy one, signed the papers
on the old plan and st the old wages, threw
off the ships moorings, and we're soon on
their Wny To sea

There are 200 Indians, well armed and so
