London, Sept SIT IS reported among
| the delegates VINO are bound for the
Trades Union congress. which opens a,
| Edinburgh on Monday next, that all thu
| plans for gigantic strike OF the DOCK
laborers OF the world at large have been
perfected IN everything but the minute
details and that the most important la
Dor movement ever conceived may be
commenced this autumn. The Trade
union men who do the work OF the
ports OF the United Kingdom have been
working on this scheme for long time
past and It is looked upon "a likely to
be the signal for a new era. not only In
the history OF trades unionlsm. but In
the history OF all the labor organiza tons
or secret societies.
Since tho year 1883 every strike for
better wages or shorter hours at any
port OF tho United Kingdom has practi-
cally come 10 nothing because when the
men went out at any particular port the
trade OF that place was transferred for
the time being. 10 some other Britain
or continental port and the strikers have
been compelled 20 surrender. The pres
ent plan Is designed TO prevent any such
faScc. by uniting ell classes OF labor
ers employed In or about the docks
ships. vs1aryes and warehouses, in the
United Kingdom. the United States.
Canada, Germany. Australia, Francs.
Holland. Belgium. and az well as oil
