MUST APPEAL TO AMERICA.
British Werkmen in Sore Distress Be-
cause of Strikes.

cause of Strikes.
London, Sept. 3.-Nearly every day
is bringing to the metropolis reports of
trade and labor troubles, and despite
the fact of the opening of the winter
season being so near at hand there
seem TO be more disputes between cap
ital and labor than ever before. The
dispute in the building trades of Lon
don is now eighteen weeks old, and all
that time nearly Ave thousand men
have been idle. The London united
trade committee and the various car
penters' trades unions have expended
for strike pay and organizing expenses
nearly $500, 900. and y second appeal to
the building trades, of the United
States for assistance will be Issued On
Saturday. The first appeal was not
productive of much spot cash.
In West Cumberland 5000 men and
boys hitherto employed in the steel de-
partment of the West Cumberland iron
and Steel Works are IDLE, owing to the
bad condition of the business of the
firm, and great distress prevails. The
strike in the Queens Hill Shipbuilding
Works, at Belfast, shows no signs OF
being brought to an anlicable conclus-
ion. Fifteen hundred hands are out.
In the Greenock foundries, too, only
about one-fourth of the force are at
work. Two thousand engineers in the
employ of the Thames Iron Works in
the shipbuilding yards are on strike.
The bakers Of the metropolis threaten
to strike In few weeks for the follow
ing demands: Not more than sixty
hours work per week; six hours per
week for meals; q wage scale on the fol-
lowing basis: First hands. $S per week |;
second hands, S6.75 per week; all other
hands. $5.25 per week. Two thousand
wooden mill operatives of Lancashire,
who have been on . strike for several
weeks for an increase in wages, re-
turned to work yesterday, their de-
mands having been granted.

during that time has acted as correspondent of
daily papers. and published one OF his own
called The Eye, at ST. Panl, Mimi. He has also
dealt in geological specimens to limited ex-
tent.
a fact worthy of notice is that he has several
times recently changed the spelling of his name,
but in such way as to preserve the euphony
of the name. While in Seattle IL was
