SOUTH AFRICAN DEPORTATIONS JUSTIFIED. AN ARTIFICIAL STRIKE WITH DEnNTTH PURPOSE. By Cable—Press Associaiisir—Copyright KeseiTed J, il* p. m . Lo»don, April 30. A Blue Book deals witk th. South African strike. ' Lord Gladstone, in a dsspatsb on January 87, observed that owing to the exsessively large orimiaal and semieriminal classes at Johannesburg, a. general strike there, unless conducted peacefully, would create a perilous position. Th* despatch accused Poutsma of calling on the strike without waiting for a ballot or giving the statutory notice. The despatch also notified the intended expulsion of the leaders, which was justified by extreme necessity. A later despatch said that it was impossible to doubt that the strike was an artificial one, designed to disorganise the Government, and make the Trades Hall paramount. He defended the establishment of martial law.
