The Cabinets anxiety for a speedy settle

the growing dangers of industrial strikes IN

the strikers hold out under much suffer
ing.
an important distinction between the agi-
tation in the mining and in other industries
is that the former sin the meantime not as
sociated with the Socialists, while the latter
are closely related 10 theIn The dread in
Government circles is that the miners viii
be easily drawn within the circle of the
Belgian Socialist miners societies Already
Anarchist agents from the Charleroi and
Mons miners lComise the Bochum and
Essen men assistance. The authorities
freely permit meetings OF the strikers. at
which a notable feature hitherto has been
the denial OF all connection with the Social
lists. Small groups paraded in BOchum with
red fags, but were treated with indiffer-
ence.
The general attitude of the strikers apart
from their claims, evokes sympathy Public
opinion concerning their claims also sides
with the men Since lSS1 the coal trade has
been immensely prosperous. The produc-
tion and sales have increased over - per
cent The values of mining shares have
rapidly risen, while the wages OF the men
remain at an average of IS Cd per day.
