FEARFUL OF TROUBLE.
Unless the strikers Proposal Is
Accepted, There viii Be Blood

LONDON, Aug. 5O.-Meetings are
being held tonight by every trades
union organization in LONDON, and the
different workmen's societies, for the
purpose OF taking action upon the ciTcu-
lar issued by the dock laborers commit
tee this morning. in which they urge
all London workmen to 20 on
strike next Monday unless the
dock companies yield to the de-
mands of their striking employees.
The importance of the declslons 10 De
reached tonight can scarcely be over
estimated. 1t general strike is lnau-
gurated Monday, as IS contemplated Dy
the circular. il is difficult TO see now
riof and bloodshed can be avoided. The
leaders in many OF the WorhWen,S Or
ganizationS are pronounced socialists.
ana these have never made a secret of
their convictions that the ultimate tri-
umph of their cause can only come
through violence and revolution.
The present seems TO be their oppor-
tunity. and if they can persuade
the million toilers of the metropolis TO
Law down their tools on Monday. Ii is
certain that in less than week there
after the streets of London will behold
scenes of turbulence such as no living
EngIishman has ever seen. what ADDS
vastly TO the difficulties of the situation
is the fact that the rank and file of Lon
don's police force are heartily in SYM
pathy with the present strike, and would
without doubt sympathiZe with the
participants of general strike
should it be decided upon. They
subscribe literally to the strikers
relief fund, and when of duty
their criticisms on the conduct Of
employers leave no one to doubt on
which side of the conflict they would
prefer to fight. In the event OF the
slightest trouble the authorities would
be compelled TO rely upon the troops.
whose rifles and bayonets would do
bloody work in a crowded London
street. The gas companies early in the
week were nervous about what their
stokers would do, but to-day this has
come to be a matter of very little mo-
ment. as all the coal they have on hand
can only last until Monday. and after
that there is no way of getting a further
supply. London is certain TO be left IN
darkness Monday night if the strike
continues, and after that how much
longer no one can tell.

CALLFoR A GENERAL STRIKE.
The Trouble in London Assumes
Serious Aspect.

LONDON. Aug. 30.-The indications
are not very favorable to the immediate
settlement OF the strike. A manifesto
was issued by the committee early this
morning solemnly appealing 10 the
workers in every calling in London to
strike Monday next unless the demands
of the dockmen be conceded before
that date. The final demands OF the
men are: Sixpence an hour for regu-
lar days work. and s pence an hour Tor
over time. counting from p m. until
a. m. as the overtime hours under the
contract system. the pay to be pence.

numbering $1,000 men. The acceSslons
of these unions is most important. If
the dock companies refuse 70 accede to
the terms demanded grave complications
must ensue forthwith The condition
of affairs becomes grayeT hourly. Mr..
Burns addressed 5000 men at Tower
Hill. giving as the
WATCHWoRD. 'sNo SURRENDER
He was cheered to the echo. Three
thousand iron workers at Keighley have
struck. Cardinal Manning, Sir Andrew
Lusk and Lord Mayors Deputy Smith
conferred with the officials of the
dock companies TODAY. 1t is under
stood that the cardinal pleaded the
cause of the strikers. II is reported
that the gas stokers are dissatisfied, and
fears are entertained that London
would be in darkness in case they
struck, with additional danger by rea-
son of neglected retorts. Fifteen hum
dred mill workers at Deptford have
joined the strikers. Shippers are ar
ranging to unload the steamers at
Dover. The SeamaD's and Wharf
Laborers' union at Brisbane,
Australia, sent a cable des-
patch here to-day, saying that employ
ment would be furnished there to 80 OF
the striking London dock men. The
strikers are boasting that Monday next
will witness a gigantic amalgamated

TWO ORDINANCES APPROVED.

Provision.
Yesterday afternoon Acting Mayor
Yoerg signed two of the ordinances
passed by the common council last Mon-
day night. and by virtue of the act the
construction of two lines of street rail-
way is authorized. The ordinances to
receive official Endorsement were those
in the interests of the ITeland-COchrau

nue. cable extension. Representa-
tives of the Lockey-Moore company
called at the mayors Office during the
day to urge the signing or their ordi-
nance. They were again unsuccessful.
however. Mr. Yoerg having agreed To
hear a delegation of property owners at q
o'clock this afternoon who are opposed
to granting the company rights on
Sixth street. Action upon the ThOm-
son-Houston and Lindeke-Dawson ordi-
nances was also deferred. Aid. Yoerg
had doubts as to the advisability of ap-
proving the Selby avenue cable Ordi-
nance as passed by the council. believ-
ing that it did not clearly define the rate
of fare to be charged, and that more
specific provisions should be inserted to
bind the company TO pave along the
tracks and to keep the streets clear.
The result OF his hesitancy was a suD-
Elemental ordinance, which was drafted
iii his office. agreed TO by Mr.. LowTy's
agents. and which will be introduced
and passed at the next regular council
meeting. The supplementary Ordi-
nance and the agreement follow:
Section /. That the extension of the

company commonly known as the
SeIby avenue line, from st. Albans
street to Fairview avenue, on or along
Selby avenue. in the city of st. Paul. as
provided for by Ordinance No. =, ap-
proved on the 21st day of August. 1889,
shall be subject to all the provisions
and regulations of Ordinance No. 704,
as far as applicable thereto, and except
as such Ordinance No. 704 may be modi-
fed by any ordinance or resolution of
the city council of said city passed
prior to Aug. l, 1889.
See. 2. The rate of fare shall not ex-
ceed- five cents for each passenger for
any continuous travel of one ride on
said cable line from Broadway to Fair
view avenue, or from Fairview avenue
to Broadway, or for any continuous
travel of one ride on the said tracks be-
tween said points toward the end of
said cable line to which such car is ap-
preaching
Understanding that the ordinance for

PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK.
Chief Hubbard Is Baked by the
Clans Forces.

CHICAGO. Aug. 30.-When asked to-
day if he had recovered the tin box
which is supposed to contain DR.. Gro

said: Ibid you ever play hide-and-go-
seek? Well. if you have you'll know
we lust about stand in the position of
the one who blinds and finds out where
one person is hiding. and some one
knowing that the 'blinder' is aware of
the hiding place, goes and tells the hid
den individual that his position is
known. and that person finds another
hiding place. Can't you see?"
The inference is that the police once
knew the hiding place of the box. that
this fact was discovered and that the
box was removed just as the police
were about TO pounce on it. The chief
hinted that the trail was not entirely
lost. An afternoon paper gives publi-
cation TO a rumor TO the effect that
