GOSSIP FROM LONDON.
English Workmen and the Rotterdam
Strike-Our German Cattle Trade.

LONDON, Oct 2.-The English dock laborers
were greatly excited at the threatened importa-
ton of foreign workmen to take their places
during their strike and the most abusive cpl
thets were launched against the 'beggarly
Dutchmen," as the lower-class Briton terms all
foreigners not French. Yet as soon as the Rot
terdam strike was begun Englishmen were the
first to apply for work there, and only the ex-
ertions Of Tillet and other leaders prevented
an organized invasion Of the Dutch seaport.
The police were on the side Of the London
strikers. There were no thoughts of using the
military against them and they assaulted with
perfect lmpunity any unfortunates who were
unwise enough to trust to the laws to protect
them. Still this class quickly recognized the
difference between England and Holland. In
the latter country the police and military have
not hesitated to repress physical violence and
the Englishmen will be bought off by the Dutch
strikers, which is precisely what they went over
to Holland for. There Is not more cunning
being on the face Of the earth or one more ex-
pert in the art Of getting along comfortably
without work than the nominal British laborer.
CONSUL EDWARDS NOT DISTURBED.
Consul Edwards is not much disturbed by
the abuse lsvished upon him by certain Berlin
journals, whose animus is not at all difficult to
explain. Their illusions to the United States
making Berlin training school for ambitious
but inexperienced civil servants are by no
means apropos, as the real cause Of the bitter
hatred conceived against him by the dealers
whose profitable trade he has interrupted is
precisely that he is too acute to be made
tool Of by them. The revelations made by
the committee of inquiry into the condition
of the tailors and seamstresses Of London
might be paralelled by a similar examination
into the wages and condition Of the CORE
spending class in Berlin. Nowhere are there
more meriless sweaters than the Intermediates
between the cloak makers there and the work.

NO CATTLE TRADE WITH GERMANY.
In this connection it may be said that there
is no certainty that the cattle trade with the
interior of Germany will prove a permanent
traffic, notwithstanding its promising begin
ming. shipment to Mentz resulted in a con-
tract for an increased supply for October, but
already remonstrances have reached the gov
eminent from German cattle breeders, and as
a capital excuse for retaliation the American
bovine may be found as untitled for German
use as the American porker and be excluded
for as purely philanthropical motive.

Inspector Block and Detective Carter made
three arrests this morning. Frank Thompson,
furniture dealer at No. 9l7 7th street. was the
first prisoner, but all that was found on him was
a cipher book such as is used at the policy head
quarters in Alexandria. In Thompson's store
they also arrested a negro named Louis
Brown. When searched the officers found
some policy paraphernalia on him. They next
arrested Frederick Niedfeldt, cigar maker on

Niedfeldt was extremely anxious to obtain a

furnished the sheets. The arrests were made
on a raiding warrant issued by the chief of po-

ought to be and can be more helpful, each to
the other, than they now are. and that each
will find advantage and profit from an enlarged
intercourse with the others.
We believe that we should be drawn together
more closely by the highways of the sea and
that at no distant day the railway systems of
the north and south ~
WILL MEET UPON THE IsTHMus,
and connect by land routes the political and
commercial capitals Of all America.
We believe that hearty cooperation, based
on hearty confidence, will save all American
states from the burdens and evils which have
long and cruelty afflicted the older nations of
the world.
We believe that spirit Of justice, of common
and equal interest between the American
states will leave no room for an artificial bal
ance Of power like unto that which bias led TO
wars abroad and drenched Europe in blood
We believe that friendship, avowed with
candor and maintained with good faith, will
remove from American states the necessity Of
guarding boundary lines between themselves
with fertilization and military force.
AGAINST STANDING ARMIES
We believe that standing armies, beyond
those which are needful for public order and
the safety Of internal administration, should be
unknown on both American continents.
We believe that friendship and not force,
the spirit Of just law and not the violence Of
the mob, should be the recognized rule Of ad-
ministration between American nations and in
American nations.
To these subjects, and those which are cog
nate thereto, the attention OF this conference
Is earnestly and cordially invited by the gov
eminent Of the United States. It will be great
gain when We shall acquire that common con-
Adence on which all international friendship
must rest II will be greater gain when sho
