GLASGOW IS GUARDED
Military Display Is Provoking the
Strikers.

London, Feb. 3.-There was no
striking developments in the labor
troubles, either on the Clyde or in
Belfast. Quiet prevailed in both dis
tricts. In Belfast many of the churches
were obliged to abandon the evening
services. owing to lack of light. More
troops have arrived in Glasgow, where
it is now said there are 10000. Sol
diers are still mounted on the roofs
of the buildings surrounding George
square in Glasgow. The military dis
play is provoking great resentment
among the strikers there. The indus
trial unrest has superseded the peace
conference as the chief topic of inter
est in Great Britain. Many of the
leaders in the camps of capital and
labor are bringing. out specifics for
general remedy. The proposal of John
r. Clynes, the former food controller,
for an industrial congress represent
ing all interests, seems to be the most
popular.
