Trade at a StandstiIl in Brus-

N RUSSELS, April 1.-THE great
X strike of working men in
~ Belgium to force the govern
ment TO grant manhood suf-
fragc began quietly today, and at night
fall it was estimated that 100000 men
throughout the country had quit work.
This number is at lcast 100000 short
OF the Socialist predictions, and the
clerical press is beginning to call the
movement "pitiable fiasco'
Nevertheless the strike has shown
greater strength than was expected by
impartial observers, and because of the
fact that the numbers increased as
the day advanced it is believed gen.
orally the strikers will be reinforced
by several thousand tomorrow.
The strike thus far has been un-
marked by disturbances or any special
inconveniences to the general public.
The gas, electric and street cleaning
services, and the street cars and rail
roads are in operation as usual, but

though tho strike did not appear to
effect this port in any way this morn
ing, there was partial suspension of
work by the dock laborers later in the
day. The movement also extended to
other branches. Everything is quiet.
The comparatively small number or
strikers here is explained by the fact
that the steamship companies have
been diveIting so much business from
this port in anticipation Of trouble
that there is little work to do. 1t rs

will be augmented tomorrow, although

The cakes are easier to get out and
