STRIKE OF SEAMEN
SEEMS INEVITABLE
ship Companies ohiees Will Expire
This Week.
sy Asseeiat.d Praaa

New York. June 26.-A strike Of sea
men and other employees on coastwise
steamships on Monday next seems in
evitable. The companies object to the
renewal of the existing agreement
which will expire at the end of this
week About 20 companies and $1,000
employees are affected
The union some time ago asked for
a renewal of the old agreement with
few minor notifications. The COM
panies replied that the agreement had
been unsatisfactory, requiring I'm many
cases the employment of incompetent
labor. There was no objection on the
part Of the employers to the present
wage scale which they agreed to con-
unue automatically.
A statement by officials of the Clyde
Line explains the companies stand, as
follows:
Under the union agreement we had
to take the men the union sent. We
carry too many thousands of dollars of
cargo and are responsible for too many
lives to take such a risk. Even the
union officials admit that they have
not given US proper service"
