The London Strike
More Threatening,

London. MAY 29-The hopes for a
speedy settlement of the dock work
el.s' strike were dissipated, tonight
by the refusal Of the ship owners to
accept the governments invitation to
meet the representatives of the men
at joint conference of the Board
of Trade, next Friday. This decision
was reached by the London ship owng
ers' dock labor committee, today, and
WAS announced in letter to Sidney
Buxton, president of the Board on
Trade, in which they state that they
fail to see where~any good can arise
from attending such a conferences,
Apparently the ship owners are re-
solved to fight 10 a finish, relying
upon the government to afford pro-
lection to whatever workers are en-
ploved. This course is ffdicated By a
resolution which was adopted at a
special meeting of the London Cham
Der of Commerce, today, in which the
right OF employers to engage either
non union or union labor is affirmed
and the government is urged to af-
ford adequate protection to all those
who are willing to work. "A similar
resolution was adopted by the Corn
Exchange and The Baltic Mercantile
and Shipping Exchange.
The strike leaders are determined
not to consent to. any settlement
which viii compel onion men to work
with non-union men, In an Interview
tonight. Chairman Potter of the Ship
ping Federation said:
I'VE are now determined that the
men shall work on our terms not we
on theirs. All agreements witch have
been entered into have been broken by
the men; we must now protect our

No Vote Yet on the
Z Iron and Steel Bill.

Washington, May 29.-After devot-
ing the day largely To the eonsidera-
ton of amendments to the iron and
steel bill the Senate adjourned, to-
night, without reaching a final vote ON
that measure. Senator Hepburn held
the floor upon adjournment, and the
understanding is that when he con-
cludes vote will be taken.
The amendments place long list of
farm implements ON the free list; re
peal the Canadian reciprocity law and
provide for a duty of 81 per ton on
print paper, and reduce the duty on
pig iron to 6 per cent, and that on
ferro= silicon to 10 per cent. There
was a prolonged and sharp controversy
over an amendment by Senator Por-
ineren of Ohio to take machine tools
from the free list as the House pro-
vided. and fix a duty of 20 per cent.
on them. This was defeated AZ to Is.
The successful unexpected effort for
the repeal of the reciprocity law was
begun by Senator Gronna, who at first
proposed to the repeal of all the reci-
procity law except the second section
which permits the free admission of
print paper from Canada.
Senator Gallnger moved as an
amendment the repeal of the entire
reciprocity law including the paper
provision. This suggestion was ae-
cepted by Mr. Gronna, who withdrew
his own amendment in its favor. The
effect of the success of the Gallinger
amendment would have been to restore
| the Payne Aldrieh rate of 1915 per
ton on print paper, Senator Cummins
declared his unwiIlingness to 90 so
far. He then proposed a rate of So
per ton on print paper, which Mr.. Gal
finger accepted.
The vote ON this amendment stood
81 to q.
senator cummins said positively
| that if it should become a law the
provision would have the effect of
placing a duty OF So per ton on paper
| from all other countries as well as on
that from Canada.
s., An amendment by Senator Hitch
| cock of Nebraska, reducing the duty
on pig iron to six cents in place OF
eight cents as fixed by the House was
fVoted in 36 to 20, and an amendment
| by Senator Watson of West Virginia
| fixing the duty on feIro silicon at Ia
per cent. instead of IL per cent was
Iadopted without a division.
