MORE HEATERS ON STRIKE.
Boys at Pusey & Jones Sbipyards
Went Ont Yesterday
Morning.

Fifteen heater boys ut the shipyards
of the Pusey x Jones Company struck
yesterday morning for Il stated amount
of wages. The boys demand rate of
$1.10 per day in place of the percentage
basis under which they have been work
ing. The advance will be about 10 per
cent. over the rates now paid. The
strike thus far has been the cause of the
idleness of about forty-five men and the
firm cannot well afford to shut down
this department of the plant mt this time.
The riveters and holders-on are in sym
pathy with the boys and the end is not
yet. The possibilities are that the entire
department will be closed.
The strike among the heater boys of
the Harlan & Hollingsworth Company
is not at an end.
There is n possibility that the depart
ment of the riveters will shortly be- in
a quandary for lack of help.

France had not changed her attitude

join in such initiative il it is taken under
such conditions as appear to her to merit
acquiescence.
Mr.. Kruger did not formulate any op-
position and did not intimate what he in
tended to do. But ii is believed he win
take the first official diplomatic step at
The Hague. 1t is not known whether he
Will ask Holland to propose mediation or
open other and less clearly defined nego-
tiations.
Mr.. Kruger during the day drove to the
School of Fine Arts to inspect the plaster
model of the monument to he erected to
the memory of Colonel De Villebois- Ma

South Africa fighting for the Boers. He
