riot to-day when the union men took the
offensive. The non-urion men we're game
and stood their ground So the uuioniets
attacked the officers Of the shipping firm
w When the police took hand in the game
they we're obliged to use their clubs vigor-
ously. Late this evening tho dock laborers'
union Of Hull issued an appeal to
similar unions in London, Liverpool and
Glasgow, requesting them to unite with tho
Hull union in fight against the shipping
federation. No steamers have been able TO
get away to-day except those which had
their cargoes aboard before the trouble oc-
CURED, aud the entire shipping trade is at a
standStil
Among the companies affected by the
strike Is the Wilson line. some OF the yea
sels Of which are in the American trade.
Charles II. Wilson, one OF the owners Of the
line, has incurred the special enmity OF the
strikers by his attitude toward the union
and many threats arc made against him
Nj. Wilson represents West Hull in the
House OF Commons, and the police will see
70 it that the threats are not put into execu-
tion. Considerable oNoitement prevails
