WORKERS ARE EGGED ON 2 Government Trains Centralized Po lice Force to Cope With. Pos- k ' Bible Disorders. ' Pub- BT JAMES M. TUOHY. (Copyright bj the New York World. LONDON, Aug. 7. (Special Cable.) Both sides here are preparing tor 1 the expected big struggle between capital and labor in the early winter. The great employers, according to the World's information, have formed a combination to resist further de mands for increased wages. Labor, egged on by the revolution ary elements whose tentacles are widespread and extend into nearly every trade, is constantly making in creased demands both as to wages end hours and it is claimed is mak ing profitable industry impossible. So long as the trade boom continued, employers who were reaping- huge profits gave way, but now that trade is slumping, especially in engineer ing works, where wage increases have been heaviest, dismissals are the or der of the day. The shipbuilding trade is steadily shrinking, the employers contending they cannot compete wun omer countries owing to onerous wage bills, the excess profits tax and" exorbitant transport charges. The engineering trades have now a fresh demand for wage increases under way and it is stated that rather than consent, all big engineering works in Great Brit ain will shut down. Wholesale Unemployment. This would mean unemployment on a vast scale in all the industrial cen ters of the country. The coal owners are credited with the same policy in the face of a renewed demand for in creaited wages, which the extreme trade unionists threaten to make the basis of a general strike. However, the strike may yet be averted, as the miners have to ballot on the question, while already agreed on the wage demands. If the coal mines shut down for two or three months In the winter it would mean a serious coal shortage and the complete stoppage or coal ex ports, hitting France and Italy vital ly. The shipping interests complain that the idleness and unrest among the dockers is steadily strangling Bhippirffe. It is stated that a 1400-ton ship can be unloaded at Antwerp in the same time as one .of 350 tons in London and for half the cost. Fur thermore, there is a certainty of labor in Antwerp, while there is none in London with the dockers, as Ameri can captains find, jumping at any pretext to strike. The high wages paid to the dock ers have attracted masses of un skilled labor in London, and this, re sults in increasing unemployment. . . Preparing to Relt. This labor situation apparently im pending can hardly be unattended, by disturbances, and the government is already concerting measures to deal with them. It was stated today that the British police, hitherto munici pally controlled, are to be federated Into one homogeneous force, under a plan i.ow completed by the home of fice, so. they can be moved in bodies to any part of the country where the urgency demands. It is also stated that in some centers they are already being trained in rifle practice. A possible nucleus of serious trouble exists in the large number of nnemnloved discharged officers and soldiers. Premier Lloyd George has a scheme for withdrawing as many as possible of these from England by offering them employment on excep tionaMy attractive terms in connec tion with the new coercionist regime in Ireland. The reprisals the em ployers are credited with plannins will, sober opinion holds, play into the hands of the extremists, who wish for nothing better to give ah impetus to their revolutionary schemes of 84. He was noted as a musician. composer, writer, explorer and hu manitarian. His friends were said to ave Included Liszt, Jenny Lind, Dom Pedro of Brazil and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. - v Arizona Paper Establishes Service .in Mountainous Districts. NOOALES; Ariz., Aug. 7.

Thirty-six blooded pigeons are housed in a roomy cote obtained through tne local army post and located atop the newspaper building.
