MARITIME STRIKE.
GLASGOW STRIKERS USE FORCE. By cable.—Press Association.—Copyright London, June 20. The shipping strikers at Glasgow, believing that non-unionists were employed on Rums' Belfast steamers, forcibly entered the docks. The police drove them back, and the crowd then seized empty boxes and barrels of paraffin and fired the premises. They stoned the fire brigade, who, however, ultimately extinguished the outbreak. A mob of five thousand was dispersed with hoses. EMPLOYERS MAKING SETTLEMENTS. London, June 20. The White Star, Leylawl, Booth, and Allan companies have made all-round settlements with the strikers. The Cunard Line have agreed to pay ten shillings a month extra.
