A aUNDAY RIOT.
Liverpool, Monday, Aug. 14. -The
labor unrest culminated here yester-
day afternoon, when the street's, were
turned into a battlefield. The thor-
oughfares were crowded in all direc-
tions from Bt. Graorges Hall; •out-
side of which 100,000 transport work -
ere had gathered for a demonstration.
The crowd was excited from the be-
ginning, but everything went 'Well

DOOXISIEN LOCKED OUT,
verp ol, .Aug. 14. -The threatened
lockout by the ship owners became et.'
feetive to -day, when 80,000 dock men
were refused employment until they de-
cide to abide by tbe terms of their ra.
cent agreement.
Last week the employers complained
that in spite of the compronage effected,
sectional strikes ead taken place, sea
lonely inconveniencing the trade.
On Friday fifty of the leading ship
owners formally notified the dockers'
union that unless all notions of the
strikers resumed work by noen to -day,
steps would be taken to stop all wpra at
the port. Many of the strikers aecepted
the ultimatum and returned. to work
this morning, but the coal heavers gener-
ally refused to obey the meters of the
union officials, to resume their occupa-
tions. Accordingly the employers re-
solved to carry out their threat.
The lock -out applies to the whole port
of the Mersey, but 'does not affeet the
passenger traffic, The Cnnard Steam-
ship Corapa.ny is arepering to disenbark
all of the Lusitania's paseengera end as
much freight as possible, at Fieliguard,
where the steamer is due at 9 o'clock to-
night,
Col. Concannon, of the' White Star
Steamship Company, issued a statement
to the effect that the strikers, not hay-
hig reaumed work in a body, it had been
fount necessary to close down all work
en the cargoes for the present.
,Although there has been no recrudes-
cence of the state of war that existed
last night, matters were so threatening
to -day that the War Office practically
took charge of the situation, and large
military, reinforcements were •expected.
One of the parks was prepared for an
encampment. The only way of mewing
provisions was to convoy them with
strong detachments of soldiers-, who
were provided with ball eertridges.
The Strike Committee has written to
the railroad companies suggesting a con
ference with a view to a settlement.

Bookkeeper ofBeaver Mines
Arrested at Toronto,
Toronto, Aug: 14, -George
Bourne, 4 bookkeeper, living at 84
Bismarck avenue, was arre.eted on
aaturday night by Detective Miller
On. a charge of stealing 15;000 shares
of mining stook, representing $5,000,
from tbe Beaver Consolidated Mine.
Limited, with headquartexa in the
Lumaclen building.
As the result of the alleged pecula-
tion ef atock there are believed to be
about 13,000 shares of the stock out.
standing over and above the amount
which. has been legally issued.
The procedure alleged to have been
adopted, by Bourne was carried on in
Joeh a way that detection was almost
impossible, as hie books were always
balanced correctly.
Bourne, it is said, has done every-
thing in his power to aid the investi-
gation and has of his own accord re-
covered and returaed 2,000 shares,
making the total excess outstanding
13,000 shares. The value of the mis-
aap:opriated ehares was placed at
05,000, which is on the beige 'of the
value of..the etock at the time it was
taken. At present the total would
amoura to between $6,000 and $7,000.
