PARTI-COLOURED STRIKE.
DYERS OF THREE NATIONS. By Telegraph—Frees Association—Copyright Berne, June 16. Owing to the peculiar geographical situation of the Swiss town of Basle (which) is situated on the French frontier, and also impinges upon the Grand Duchy of Baden), the dyers on strike there belong to three nationalities. Troops from the three States, totalling five regiments, are engaged in maintaining order. The chief anxiety of the authorities is to prevent the Swiss troops entering Germany and the German troops entering Switzerland. Crowds of twelve thousand stoned the police at Watter, and the latter were compelled to use their sabres.
