Sympathetic Strike May
Be Called in Boston,
To Support Longshoreme n in
Struggle for Increased Wages.
Steamship Companies Are Com
pletely Prepared for Trouble.

Boston, Jan. S.-The complete prep
arations of the steamship companies
of Boston to meet an extended strike
of all laborers employed about the
docks and steamships by importing
hundreds of docl, laborers from New
York state, and the maratime prov
inces resulted, tonight, in creating a
certain amount of dissatisfaction
with the announcement that SYM
pathetic strike might be called to sup
port the longshoremen, now out, in
their struggle for increased wages.
Some opposition developed, last night.
at the meeting of the district Assem-
bly, of Knights of Labor, on the part
of the transfers and many OF the
freight handlers, Notwithstanding
which a vote was carried in favor of
a strike should the longshoremen call
for it.
The executive committee of the dis
trict Assembly discussed the situation
for several hours, tonight, but had
not arrived at any decision, so far as
could be learned, at midnight. 1t was
stated by some of the dissatisfied ones
that the unions were poorly equipped
to carry on a prolonged strike at this
time, through lack of funds, and some
criticism was expressed over the So
called unwise. proceeding in striking
during the hardest part of the win
ter.
Steamship agents maintain that
they have been forced to the limit and
will replace every man who goes on
strike by strike breakers, even If the
full 5000 affiliated men go out. Already
nearly 1000 new hands are handling
freight about the wharves and still
further additions are coming in by
every train. The steamship represen-
tatives claim they have fully 5000 men
who can go to work within "a hours,
and that they are getting many re-
sponses from advertisements placed in
New York and the Canadian province
papers.
! That there will be no violence is as
sured by the action of the local unions
in warning their men to keep away
from the docks and by providing hall
which will be open for the reception
and entertainment of all strikers dur
ing the entire progress of the strike.

MIR. Bryan inveighed bitterly against
Col Guffey and is said to have been
unspairing in his arraignment of the
Pennsylvania member. The feud be.
tweer. the tive ~men is of long standing.
Rep. Palmer had accused Col Guffey
of conserving with the Republican
Machine" in PENNSYLVANIA and of
disloyalty to his party. Mr.. Bryan re-
peated all of this and more. At the
end. it is said, he had no apologies to
offer. Undoubtedly he will carry on
his fight against Col. Guffey.
At one time during his impassioned
appeal to the committee TO rid itself
of "Guffey and Guffeyism" Mr.. Bryan
went to SO far as to threaten to zap
peal TO the people" If the committee
decided against him. The threat had
no effect. Mr.. Bryan said that thrice
he had been candidate for the Pres
ideney and that 100000 voters had
stood back of him. They We're all DEM
ocrats, he asserted. and 1t was to the
Democracy that he would make his
appeal.
IF this committee does not do the
right thing he declared, the people
will do the right thing"
Immediately the report spread that
Mr.. Bryan had threatened the organ
ization OF a third party. This came on
top of the consultation between Mr..
Bryan and Senator La Toilette, late
yesterday, and was given credence in
some quarters. But Mr.. Bryan laid
emphasis upon the statement that It
was the Democrats TO whom he would

Twas fought by the Mothers OF
Men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
with sword or nohlor PEN
Nay, not with eloquent words or
thought,
From mouths of wonderful men.
But deep in walled up woman's heart,
OF woman that would not yield,
But brayely, silently. bore her part
Lo, there was the battle field.
Ma marshallng troops. no blvouac
song,
No banner to CLEAN and wave;
But, Oh those battles. they last so
long,
From Babyhood TO the grave.
Yet faithful still as a bridge Of stars,
She fights in her walled up town.
Fights on and on in the endless wars,
Then silent, unseen-goes down.
