USIVERSAL SUFFRAGE WANTED.
Belgium Laborers Claim That They Have
Been Fooled by Promises.
[BY Cable to The Timesl

BRUssELLs. Nov. 23-A meeting was held
at Seraing yesterday that promises to result
in a serious disturbance in the Belgian labor
world. Ii will be recalled that the great strike
of Belgian workmen, which WAS general
throughout the country some m nths ago. was
not for higher wages nnr shorter hours. but
for the establishment Of universal suffrage in
Belgium. The Government at that time made
many promises but time has passed and the
workingmen fiud themselves no nearer the re-
alization of their hopes than they were at the
beginning of the struggle. Relying upon the
promises OF the ministers the strikes were
ended and order was restored in the many
fields of Belgian labor.
The workngmen finally became discon-
tented with the situation Of affairs and yes
terdays meeting at Seraing was the result.
The delegates OF the various labor organiza-
tions represented at the meeting decided that
unless the promises of the government to
grant universal suffrage were shortly fu!-
filled they would reconsider their action in
bringing the 4 rmer strife 70 a close and
would again inangurate q general strike 10
force the granting OF their demand.
At present the only persons allowed 20 vote
in Belgium are those who pay taxes to the
amount of forty francs year This qualih-
cation places the voters 40 n. -3 IN every 900
Of the population and II IS this unequal state
Of affairs that the w0rkingmen wish 10 do
away with.
