CALL
 FUR LONDON

General Manager J. w. Boyle, of the Canadian-Klondylxe company re- ceived a telegram Saturday which, he explains, necessitates his leav- ing within few days for London, England. In consequence he de- cided to shut down construction on the two new dredges, Canadian No. 8 and Canadian No. {, at once, Some are still at work, but prac- tically every tap of construction Op- eration will have ceased by the end of the present week. This means the laying off of 1SO men, who have been at work on the two dredges for months. Those engag- cd in construction on No. would have been laid off this week any way, for the reason the dredge would have been ready tomorrow or next day for operation.
 The diversion of water into the pit was under way for the purpose of floating the dredge for operation Saturday when advices came from the outside necessitating MT, Boyle's early departure. Otherwise, he states, he would have had No, 8 working for some time before clos ing the dr, dging season, and would have had good deal more work done on No. 4. Both dredges, how ever, will be floated. Construction work on No. 4 will be finished in short time in the spring. The con struction probably will be resumed in March, thus necessitating a shut down of only about three months for construction crews.
 All the material for the new number three dredge which was at
 Indian river has been landed at the dredges by teams which hauled the freight over the ice of the Yukon, Some of the heavy pieces are in position on No. 8.
 Mir. Boyle is undecided whether to continue operations with No. 2 dredge, now opposite Bear creek, or to shut her down before he leaves, She is working now in a slough, and digging in good pay. Not the slightest difficulty has been exper- fenced in operating the big boat, Considering the fact her buckets have a capacity of 16 cubic feet, and she is the largest dredge in the world, her performance last week of operating when it was 50 below zero may be looked on in the dredging world as marvellous Some believe the dredge could oper- ate all winter. The records show the wear on the boat is practically no greater at this time of the year than in the summer, and lost time | for cold is but slight. One great advantage the ship has over others in the Yukon is that she has a large steam heat plant aboard which keeps all machinery warm and bearings and other parts in most favorable condition.
 Mrs. Boyle will accompany Mir ! Boyle to London.-DawsOn News.

BRITISH LABOR LEADER SAYS
ALL STRIKES ARE FUTILE

owing to the absence of the usual
long lines of trucks and drays, but
the strike of the transport workers
has not become general.
The order to lay down tools affects
upward of 100000 men in central Lon
don alone, but those engaged on jobs
will be permitted through an under
standing with the executive commit
tee of the Transport Workers fedora
ton to complete them before joining
their fellows who have already struck
work. The full effect of the strike
order, therefore, will not be felt for
several days.
All Is Quiet at Docks.
Everything is quiet at the docks and
in the immediate vicinity. Picketing
is being carried on by the men in a
peaceful manner and no disturbances
such as were associated with the
strike of last year have been reported
No extra police have heen placed on
duty. but the police headquarters ut
Scotland Yard, IN conjunction with
the war office, are possessed Of an
elaborate scheme drawn up after the
last strike to assure the free passage
of food supplies. This will be brought
into operation on the first sign of IN
reference by the strikers with those
DESTROYS of continuing to work. The
plan includes the protection of the
markets, the routes between the docks
and the markets, the railroad stations,
the cold storage works, the bakeries
and the gas and electric light works.

All those engaged at Covent Garden

LONDON, May 24.-"Strikes never
did and never will pay" declares
Philip Snowden, NJ. P, ex-chairman Of
the labor party, in an article published
today, discussing the labor unrest in
general and the renewed strike of the
London stevedores, lockers and light
ermen in particular. Mr.. Snowden's
views are exciting unusual interest be-
cause of his long connection with the
workingmen's movement in Great
Britain. He is a thoughtful, moderate
socialist, who has attained a reputa-
ton as an orator in the house of
commons.
Says the Situation is Old.
Some of our young theorists" he
continued, commit the odd error of
considering the present labor unrest
new and unprecedented. The only
thing new about the situation is the
newness of the intellectual awakening
of some theorists and people who are
discussing it. Twenty-Five years ago
we had formidable strikes, a demand
for the minimum wage, alarm in the
upper classes regarding the security
of society and all the rhetoric that is
current today was current then re-
garding the relations of capital and
labor.
The very causes that are cited now
for the unrest were cited then-the
increased cost of living, the growth
of intelligence of the workers as the
result of improved education, the
dehumanized conditions of toll the
irritation of the masses at the grow.
ing display of wealth and the effect
of the socialist propaganda. The
same means that are employed now
to deal with strikes were employed
then. Soldiers were freely used and
agitators were locked up ON the
charge Of sedition.
Says Strikes Cannot Succeed.
Labor has always been poor and
oppressed and discontinued and Its
feelings occasionally burst, volcano
like, into flame. Strikes can not help.
They succeed, if at all, only by the
intervention of the state. Labor must
increase its political representation
and influence. 1t must WELD a great
er power over the state"

MACHINERY THAT HOSTS

Accustomed as they are to the
sight of great masses Of steel being
Eoisted many hundreds of feet into
The air in the course of building a
sllyscraper, this spectacle has not
ceased to be fascinating to New York
els. All day there is an everchong-
ing crowd at Chambers and Center
streets watching the erection Of the
Municipal Building and another on
the Broadway side of the PostofIice
watching the Woolworth Building as
its scales the heights OF heaven.
Men ask each other aloud or Won
der silently what sort Of machinery
is used for such stupendous work
Nest of them have seen the giant
cranes, but few have any idea Of how
these are operated. An article in the
monthly number of the Edison Month
" describes this work in its relation
