Old Dominion Lines Employees Ordered
Out By Their Union.
The 1ongshoremen employed by the Old
Dominion Steamship Line at the foot OF Beach
street. North River. went on strike on July ID.
The day men at that time got S12 week OF
sixty hours. and twenty-five cents an hour

an hour. They wanted thirty-lve cents for
night work and thirty cents for day work. The
company thought IL was possible TO give the
men that amount and conceded the demands
for the time. but II was soon seen that the
longshoremen were getting more than their
share and that to squalizs things a change
would have to be made. 30 on Thursday the

The Iongshoremen's Union wouldn't stand
that. Then the company said II would pay
everybody e15 q week. Two-thirds OF the men.
according to Superintendent Leland OF the
company, were willing to accept. They saw
the force OF the mpany's argument that
every man ought TO get what he earned. and
to give some men more than they earned
was unjust to somebody else. But the men
who run the union thought otherwise and all
hands were ordered out under the usual intim-
idation. The men struck last evening at z

LONDON. Aug. pa blue. book relating to
the proposed Transvaal reforms has been
issued by the Government. It opens with q
despatch from Sir Alfred Minor transmitting
the note OF the Government suggest
ing arbitration OF the varying interpretations
OF the London Convention. Sir Alfred, while
reiterating that he is in favor OF limited arbl-
tration In certain circumstances after the Uit-
landers' grievances had been redressed. de-
clares that the scheme OF the Transvaal is alb
solutely unacceptable on it's merits. He advises
its immediate rejection. On July Colonial
Secretary Cham berlain cabled that the Govern
ment would not accept the Boer proposal
On July a. In a dispatch to Sir Alfred Mil
ner. Mr.. Chamberlain proposed an inquiry
into the new franchise law. He declared that
under no circumstances would the Govern
ment admit the Intervention OF foreign power
regarding the Interpretation OF the convention.
and added that II the Transvnal would agree
to the exclusion OF the foreign element he was
willing to consider how and by what methods
such a question OF Interpretation could be de-
cided by some judicial authority whose inde-
pendence. impartaity and capacity were be-
yond and above suspicion.
On July 81 Mr.. Cham berlain authorized Sir
Alfred to invite President Kruger to appoint
delegates to make an inquiry into the fran
chse law. He said that IL an inquiry took place
the British delegates would be instructed to
press for an early report Sir Alfred informed
President Kruger that while the inquiry must
be confined to the political representation OF
the Uitlanders. he was prepared to discuss not
only the report and franchise question, but
other matters. including arbitration without
the foreign element.
LONDON. Aug. 20.-The morning papers are
unanimous in their support OF Mr.. Chamber
lains policy as disclosed by the blue book.
They are convinced that he Is determined not
only on franchise reform. but on securing gen.
eral Improvement In the treatment OF the Uit-
landers.
The Standard says: Nobody in England
wants war. and the Government is doing all II
can to avoid a rupture. Still less do we want
the Transvaal itself. Apart from its gold reefs
its territory is almost worthless. Its mines
will probably be exhausted in half a century.
We do not desire the Beers as fellow subiects.
We do notwant another Ireland. 1t is merely
common political justice that the Government
Is determined to ohtain.'
The difference between this Government
policy and the aims OF the Rhodesites ia
strikingly shown by a cable despatch sent
to-day from Cape Town to the Outlook, a Lon
don weekly. which. it is understood. is sub
sdiaed by Rhodesito capitalists This de-
spatch says:-"A prominent Dutch burgher
told me that he would rather see the Trans
vaal British colony than a republic dominated
by the Uitlanders. Misgivings are felt here
that the delay Of the Imperial Government will
have a paralyzinR effect"
