Hamburg. Feb. 1O.-Ever since the de-
cision Of the majority Of the men who
took part IN the great strike here Of dock
lnborers AMI others employed in the
shipping trade to return to work there
has been much discomfort among the
men, and those who watched the situa-
ton closely could see that trouble WAS
brewing. The defeat of the strikers
was due mainly TO lack of funds, and
they felt very bitter that they were
compelled TO return to work without
having in the least benefited their con-
dition. Tuesday night the bad feeling
among the men eliminated in n bitter
fight between a large number OF the
men who had been on strike and the
police. who for several days past had
been anticipating trouble. Before the
disturbance was quelled two men were
killed and 10 seriously wounded
Among the latter are five policemen.
