London Strike
Is On Again
(By United Press. Leased Wire

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
LONDON. Aug. 14.-Paralysis
of business all over England was
the outlook the authorities faced
today through a resumption of the
strike troubles which it had been
hoped were on the decline. The
situation in London Is again acute
and in other cities desperate riot
ing marked the opening OF the
week. Every commercial center
in England is threatened.
In this city the railway en-
ployes threaten to tie up trans
portation, including that of the
underground railways, unless
their demands for shorter hours
and higher wages are met before
the end of the week. In Liver
pool, Sheffield, Bristol, Manches-
ter and Glasgow, the railway men
are just as determined and the
gravest difficulties are feared I'M
less their demands are satisfied.
General dread is felt here lest
last weeks conditions will again
obtain with resulting food fam
Inc. The dockmen, whose PEACE
was made with their employers
through Intervention of the au-
thorities, declare that unless one
thousand municipal dock men who
were discharged for having affil-
lated with the union are reinstat-
ed they will disregard the settle
ment made and again go out on
strike.
The first breath of the trouble
came today. Several thousand
dockmen on the Surrey side of
the Thames disputed the way
their employers interpreted the
agreement on which last weeks
strike was terminated, and went
out again. There has been mo-
violence but the outlook Is con-
ceded by all observers to be as
threatening as ever.

Show Roys Lost
$4,000 to City

Confirming statements of the
Times months ago that ex-Com-
missioner Roys caused the city to
lose about $4,000 by failing to
enforce the law and collect license
fees, the state examining account
ants have made their report show
ing the details of the shortage.
The examiners, however, failed
to take note of the hundreds of
dollars turned in recently by Lii
cense Inspector Shortes for ex-
press licenses and food dealers
and others from whom no money
had ever before been received.
Condemn Account System.
The examiners condemn the ac-
counting systems and bookkeeping
in the various city Offices. 1t
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1911-08-14

recommends the abolishing of the
city clerks office entirely, the
election of city purchasing agent
and the use of more labor saving
machinery in the water and light
offices.
The treasury and controller de-
partments were commended.
Much fault was found with the
manner of conducting the munich
pal dock, which the examiners de-
.clared should be great revenue
producer. The examiners thought
Supt. Hall would be all right
after he learned the business but
many changes were urged. The
business end of the public market
was reported much better now
than formerly.

Stirred to intense interest by

HUNDREDS FLOCK.
TO BEATTIE TRIAL

The young man, son of wealthy
Manchester banker, was promin-
ent socially, and the killing of the
young wife, which Beattie alleges
was done by highwayman, has
developed into a most sensational
case.
Centralia, four miles away, is
the nearest trolley station, and
Chesterfield farmers, who met in
coming cars, reaped a golden har-
vest driving curiosity seekers
here. Every trolley was crowded
to the limit, despite the fact that
the trolley line management rec
ognized the demand a1d doubled
the usual number of cars.

CAUSE OF DELAYS
Committee on Light Calls for
Report on Municipal
Plant.

After a good deal of discussion rela-
two to delays In tho completion of the
municipal electric lighting system, the
Council Committee on Electricity last
night directed that Supervising Engi-
neer Traford mako n report at the
next meeting showing the amount of
work now under construction and the
causes of delays.
Some members OF the committee
wanted lights from the municipal plant
placed in all the public buildings.
while others, taking sides with Chair
man Lynch. thought 1t best first to
light the important streets. The dis
cussion vas brought to a close by Mr..
CowGrdin. who offered a J. resolution
asking that a report be made as to
the preparedness OF the buildings for
the service and the status OF the de-
partment III regard to the systematic
lighting of the principal streets.
Mr.. Traford presented a letter ask
ing compensation for the completion
of the Storm & Company contract. The
matter had already been submitted TO
u subcommittee which recommended
that he be paid 2 per cent. for plans
and specifications. and ) per cent. for
supervision. the total amount being
s539.1S. The amount was recommend
ed by the committee.
The committee ordered six ornamen-
tai lights for Washington Park at a
cost of $3.50.
