INDUSTRIAL UNREST.
(Received 2, 11.40 a.m.) London, May 1. Twenty brakes containing Socialist Sunday School children paraded London waving red flags. They afterwards field a May Day demonstration in Hyde Park, which was attended by many tailors and tailoresses, out of 6000 who have struck for better accommodation and twopence an hour increase for pieceworkers and a minimum wage of 30s for tailoresses. Mr Ackland, in the House of Commons, said Sir E. Grey was much concerned at the loss incurred by ships in the Dardenelles and had made urgent representations with a view to freeing traffic.
