DOCK LOCKOUT THREATENED.
Result of Partial Strike by Men at
Liverpool.

Liverpool, July ia large number of
lockers here and at Birkenhead struck
work yesterday morning, refusing to reg
lister under the new clearing house
scheme in connection with the national
insurance act, which went into force yes
terdav. The employers threaten gem
eral lockout unless the men comply with
the scheme.
The clearing house scheme, to which
the lockers object, has been established
in large centers, such as the docks where
casual workers are employed by differ
ent firms in the course of the week. The
men deposit their cards at the clearing
houses and the contributions payable UNI
der the insurance act by the firms en-
ploying them are duly apportioned there
and the men receive their wages minus
the deducted contributions at the clear
ing house. Outside the big centers the,
first employer of casual worker usually
pays the requisite contribution, and the
men prefer this to going to clearing
house.

Sea Grit, n. j., July I6.-0scar w
Underwood, Democratic leader in the
House Of Representatives, will lunch to-
day with Governor Woodrow Wilson at
Trenton. Arrangements were made over
the long distance telephone yesterday.
The appointment was made for Tren-
ton, because the governor expects TO OBJ
serve every Tuesday. the weekly gov
ernor's day, at the state capitol. II has
been the governors habit to lunch each
Tuesday at the State House, with the
heads of the various state departments
To-days luncheon. however, probably
will be at the Country club, where a
greater degree OF privacy is assured.
Refreshed by Is hours sleep, the
governor opened the week by going over
a mass of correspondence He said he
thought it would take him about
month to catch up with his sleep and
unanswered letters.
The trip from Sea Girt to Trenton was
made by automobile, and the reporters
were requested not to follow the gov
ernor, but go to Trenton by train.
'1f YOU only knew how much | enjoy
few hours unobserved," the governor
said, I'm sure you would grant my re-
quest without hesitation"
The governor said he had no appoint
ments of especial Importance during the
week, except the luncheon engagement
with leader Underwood, but visit to
Sea Grit or Wednesday by a sub-com-
mittee of the national committee is not
unexpected.
Governor Wilson was asked yesterday
if he cared to comment on the unseating
of Senator Lorimer. He said he would
prefer to say nothing.

Hugh Duffy the former manager OF
the White Sox and now acting in the

OF the American association, has decided
to pitch his tent elsewhere than in the

of his friends that he was through with
baseball. BY winter he says that he
will have about 100000 tied up in bus
mess and prefers to stay in the West
and see that il does not get away from
him. Probably the chief reason of his
quitting the game is due to the poor
of the Boston team this yeer.
Some say that Mack is dissatisfied

wife.
She said Wilfred Iairted with
girls who came to his employ
.ment agency, and that he never
came home until late at night.
The court said Mrs. Bloom
dnade out a clear case, and dealt
very harshly with Wilfred. Judge
Appleton ordered him to be home
every night in the week by g

night after arriving there.
',And if you don't do it, said
the court, H'I'll send a bailiff after
you and you'll be brought here
and sentenced to Jail"
Wilfred protested Wailingly.
He told Judge Appleton that he,
the Judge, did not know Mrs.
Bloom, and that if he did he
wouldn't give an order like that.

Appleton. 80 O'Clock every night,
