LONDON, July 2

The tugboat men have struck, thus affecting the handling of twenty-three steamers, including the Lusitania. They declared that they are not dissatisfied, but had been intimidated by the strikers.
Subsequently a settlement was reached with all the Liverpool firms engaged in the coasting trade, including the dockers. The leaders are convinced that the whole strike will be settled to-morrow.
