THE LONDON DOCKERS.
EXPECTED STRIKE. Press Association —Electne Telegraph.—Copyright. London, November 2. Mr. Tom Mann has made a further appeal to the dockers not to strike pending the result of the negotiations now being carried on with the owners and companies for a co-operative system of labour. Trouble is feared, as the dockers show a rebellious disposition, and as irritation is increasing the outlook for to-morrow is ominous. The corn porters at Allan and Wilson's remaining obdurate, the firm are introducing machinery at their works, which will have the effect of throwing many of the men out of the work. [Received November 4, 1.30 a.m.] London, November 3. It is hoped that the friction between the dockowners and the dockers will be only trivial. The dockers at Tilbury have agreed to await the result of the negotiations proceeding re the co-operative system. Cardinal Manning exhorted the men to be moderate in their demands.
