demand also was granted, and the keeper
thereupon confessed the plot, saying that
he intended TO touch d button and explode
the mines when the revolutionists entered

SPLIT IN SEAMENS UNIONS.

feated by Germans

Copenhagen. Aug 24-The International
Congress Of Sailors and Marine Firemen,
now in session here. received to-day greet
incs sent BY able from the Seamen's s
Union of America.
The AngIo-American proposal TO estab-
rsh separate seamen's federation was re-
jected because Of the opposition of the
German delegates. This has intensified the
bad feeling between the British and German
delegates which arose from the denuncia-
ton by the Germans OF the plans of the
British delegates to bring about a general
international strike OF f1remen and sailors
for better wages and conditions of work
The sitting was a heated one and closed
with much confusion
The belief prevails that the conflict Of
interests will lead TO the dissolution of the
existing international Transport Workers
Federation through the secession of its
American and British members.
