DOCK TRADE SUFFERING. STRIKE OF GAS MEN. London, December 7.
Owing to the recent strike of London dockmen, there has been much diversion of trade from the London dock?. The carmen have decided to join the Labour Union, which has resolved to boycott all 'busmen who are not members. The Union has also decided to eventually seek to compel police and soldiers to establish a Union. The coal porters express empathy with the gas employees on strike, and intend to prevent coal being imported into London while the difference remains unsettled. Both at Manchester and Salford the strike of gas [men has occasioned great annoyance. The Dockers' Union protest against the tyranny of the post olHce in forbidding carmen to join the Union, and have therefore decided to boycott the non-Union men.
