It is feared u all the large works will soun be/ ‘but down, A number of other strikes,in vari- parts of the coal fields are re- ported. One colliery in South Wales has been closed because of alleged harsh treatment of the men, while at colliery the men are striking the maintenance of the custom by which they were supplied with coal Vat nominal prices for their homes.

GENERAL STRIKE PLANNED "IN EUROPE HAS ‘FAILED. Leaders In ‘Protest to ‘Intervention in Russia and Hungary Appar- ently Heed Warnings. PAR, July 21.—Advices trom vart- ous Buropegn countries, especially the Allied nations, indicated to-day that the international strike, planned Wy the proletariat as a protest against inter- vention in Russia and Hungary, had failure, Apparently strike leaders either had Jost their eontrol or had heeded gov ernment warnings. Only in Norway were there Indica-| ons that the situation might prove serious, A general strike had been jlines of the Boston elevated ures to check further Mexican Sut- rages, ‘The possiMit of armed inter- vention was attively discussed.

Other steol shares declined from two to five points, These losses were made in the face of the announcement that wire prices had been advanced and that farther price advances are Whely to be otered In the tmmediate future: It was stated In Washington that a railroad freight rate increase of 10 per cent, is Hkely to come much sooner than generally expected, but this fatled to check the decline. Lead- ime railroad shares lost from 1 to 3 points, Equipment stocks, coppers and olls, with the exception of Pan- American, all were unable to with- stand the pressure of selling and de- Ines raising from 8 to 7 points were registered. It is not improbable that the market would have been weak to- day without the unfavorable Mexican news, Shtewd observers have known for some days that the buy- ing movement was being overdone, that shorts had been driven oul of ‘the market and that its inside posi- tion had been greatly weakened, To- days set back was pleasing to the banking element for it has placed the market in a much healthier position, ‘As a matter of fact, the opinion was expressed in highly nen soy ed banking quarters that if Mexican in- tervention does come, it will ulti- mately be generally construed as @ decidedly constructive development, Profit-taking continued until the close of the market and in ma@ny cases ‘below prices of the day ‘were made in the final dealings, ' BOSTON CARS ‘RUN AGAIN.
