STRIKE LEADERS.
KESQLUTIOKS OE SYMPATHY. I HELP FOR THE PRISONERS' FAMILIES. United Press Association— ay .cjieciric Telegraph | Copyright. I Received January 28, 11.5 a.m. SYDNEY, January 28. The Sydney Labour Council passed absolution of sympathy with the imprisoned strike leaders, and arranged to make provision for their wives and families. . The annual conference of the Political Labour League also expressed sympathy with the imprisoned men. Received January 29, 1 p-m. SYDNEY, January"2B. The "Daily Telegiaph" says that the sentences on the leaders simply mean that the law of the land is vindicated. Whether that law has been wisely or unwisely enacted is a question about which t:'ere may be differences of opinion. Bowling and his conferees took the position that they were above the law and re.:ponsible to a higher authority reported by the Trades Unionist, and it is for a deliberate as&ault upon the supremacy of Parliament that they are now under sentence. What cared they about the people whose very lives might have been sacrificed by the simultaneous stoppage of public utilities.
