LONDON PARALYZED
Industrial Stagnaticn Prevail.
Throughout United Kingdom
London, Sept. 29.?Industrial stag
nation prevails throughout the lin?
ted Kingdom.
All -hopes for a settlement ari
,'olasted by the obstinate refusal both
of the workers and the government
to get together. Eveiy attempt at
conciliation?ami there have been
.many in the past twenty-four hours
?has failed.
The 1,000,000 railway men now
idle are bound to draw other hun
dreds cf thousands of workers into
the maelstrom beginning today.
The great industrial centers of
Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham,
and Glasgow are paralyzed through
the inability to supply the workers
material with which to work.
Colleries and factories already are
closing all over the laud, throwing
out hundreds of thousands of min
I ers and other workers.
The country stands aghast at the
[extent of the demoralization that j
! followed the breach between the I
| government and labor.
