Cor Last War Revealed
BY British Documents

LONDON, August British of
fetal documents disclosing some of
the data relative to the last war,
and which covers the period between
1898 and 1904 have been published
today. The documents, which are
the most important of the series,
dating from 1904 on were not pub
lished.
What has been published reveaIs
the entente between English and
French Imperialism against German
Imperialism and according to the
statement of Won Bulow, German
chancellor, was really an armed al
lance.
The documents also reveal that it
had been settled between England
and France that if Germany were to
invade France 100000 British troops
and $4,000 horses would be landed
in France within a period of four
teen days after the commencement
of the war. The position assigned
to the British troops was marked on
a map.

company began to act They tried
to line up the Englishmen in the
shop, asking them to spy on their
fellow-workers. Nothing was OBJ
tanned from this source. The com
pany then began firing for various
reasons those whom they suspected
of being connected with the paper.
When it same to Fortoul, his whole
department backed him up, de-
manded his reinstatement and
walked out when their demand was
refused.

Com petent Worker.

Eortoul is one of the best auto
electricians in the industry The
company has found it out, now, if
they did not know it before At
present, in spite of a slack period,
there are row working in the struck
department three foremen, two
helpers and two other mechanics
who help occasionally. These men
were brought in from other depart
,nents, except one mechanic who
had been helping in the electrical
department Just before the walk
cut and who is now scabbing One
of the foremen is the head cleo
field, brought here just for strike
breaking purposes. The house cleo
trician, who was supposed to have
taken over Fortoul's work, has adj
initted that he is helpless without
the helpers in the department. Prac-
ricallv no work is leaving the shop,
and that which goes out is fixed up
temporarily
Shirt OF Workers Good.
The spirit of the men is very
good. The strikers are maintaining
complete solidarity. The workers Of
the whole shop have expressed their
sympathy. A leaflet distributed
Wednesday by the Mascot" COM
mittee for the organization Of the
Brewster R. R. shop was well re-
ceived. An open-air meeting, held
Tuesday noon by the Mascot"
group, was successful.
BIT workers say that this is not
enough. The whole shop must be
brought into this fight for the re-
instatement Of Fortoul and the men
Of his department. This is just one
move Of the bosses to kill every or
ganizational attempt for the pur-
pose Of lettering conditions.
