plot for an Easter revolution.
AondonerrX Dublin and Other
places, the reports said, were the
centre Of extreme military activity
a stringent watch being maintained

newspaper reports from Ireland de
clare there is no Sinu Fein plot
and that no uprising is expected.
The appointment Of Sir Hamar
Greenwood as Chief Secretary for Ire

London newspapers which comment
that Six Hamar shows characteristic
courage. The London Times says he
can have little experience with Irish
affairs as he was not appointed to
the large Cabinet committee which
drafted the home rule bill.

he is a Canadian by birth and in

DOCK STRIKE HOLDS UP
NEWFOUNDLAND COAL
Ships Prevented From Dump
ing Fuel for Railway.

ST. JOHNS, n. f.. Nov. 21.-The I'M
loading of coal brought from Cape
Breton for use OF the Newfoundland
Railway has been delayed by strikes Of
dock workers in support of demands for
higher wages. The steamship Lingan
started unloading her cargo OF coal at
Clarenville, on Trinity Bay, on Friday.
but only a small amount had been taken
off before the men engaged in the work
went on strike.
According to the authorities, the strik-
ers prevented other workmen from talk
ing their places. Police officers were sent
to the port from this city to prevent
disorders. Yesterday the steamship pro-
ceeded to Hearts Content, but when an
attempt was made to unload the coal
the dock workers there also struck. The
next step to be taken In the effort to
get the coal off the steamship has not
been decided tonight.
Fishermen from the northern bays OF
the colony also are dissatisfied with the
financial returns from their work. Many
of them are now in this city trying to
dispose of their seasons catch of cod
and last Wednesday night they held a
public meeting to air their demands for
higher prices Fisheries Minister Coaker
countered with a meeting on Thursday
night at which he explained the diff
culties of the situation, owing to the
present condition of the export trade.

Col Guy d. Golf. general counsel Of
the Shipping Board. recently named for
membership on the board by the Presi-
dent, issued a statement to-day declar-
ing war on grafters and bribers in and
out of the organization. He promises
personally to chase them to their lair
and prosecute them. Col. Goff has been
general counsel OF the board for many
months, but so far as is known, has
instituted or instigated no criminal ac-
lions yet. or made any exposures. The
statement follows:
Graft is the twin sister to the tip.
gratuity In commercial or social life
becomes a bride when the party accept

official. Bribery in public Office is the
lothssome canker eating at the very
roots of the Government itself and poi
soning the very life blood Of society
When men sworn to uphold the integrity
and the honor of their State, barter
away its sovereignty and view public
trust as private snap, they are simply
conspiring renegades, ready to violate
their country's confidence and to betray
its secrets.
'Such q man, no matter what ms po-
stion In official life. is too wretchedly
craven to be a traitor. Such man
has lost his worth in the habits OF
treachery, and by comparison Judas Is
