FOUR MANAGE TO ESCAPE Among the Mcu Held Prisoners on Lumbcr-Ladcn Vessel in the Stream Are Two Voung Portland Boys. "With an ugly-lookine revolver ready for iction, the first olllcer yesterday aftcr aoen prevented the mutinous crew of. the British ship Eskasoni from making a break for liberty. The men had lined up at the rail and were about to leap onto tUo apron of the ferry Lionel R. Webster tvhen the ofllcor pulled the murderous weapon and leveled it at the first man to take the risk. The ferry was drifting leis urely along within three inches of the Iron sidp of the windjammer, and the men could easily have escaped had they not lost courage- at tho sight of the re volver. Four of tho crew made a sensational escape Tuesday night by paddling ashore Ir a small boat, jumping overboard at a moment when the watchmen were off tuard. Among tho four who escaped were three able and one ordinary seamen. Unable to find oars, they took a broom, by means of which they succeeded in reaching shoro before the officers could overtake them in a gasoline boat they ttaliod. The escapes ran under the docks Rtong the water front, covering their tracks so well that they are still at large. Harbormaster Blglin and Bailiff Circle, nf the Police Court, yesterday afternoon searched the vessel for four men supposed to be in irons, but failed to find them in any of tho many rompartmcnts of the lumber-laden square rigger. It has been rumored about the water front that four of the crew were looked up, and for tho purpose of satis fying himself on that point the Harbor master made a systematic search. "I searched the ship carefully," said Mr. Biglln, "but found nothing to arouse my suspicion of any one being in irons. Hu mor had four of tho crew in prison, but I saw nothing of them, and Police Officer Circle made a close investigation with, the same result." "With but ono or two exceptions 11 men FtiU on board aro inexperienced hands who havo never been to sea. They are de termined not to go, and positively refuso duty. Now that the wind has died down to a light breeze, there 1b little danger of the vessel dragging her anchor further, and she remains in tho cours of tho Al blna ferry, where her anchors brought her to a stop Tuesday night after hav ing drifted about three ships' lengths. Tho sailors look upon tho vessel's drift ing as an act of Providence. It gave them "ommunl cation with shore by means of the ferry, which is forced to run cIoho to tho Eskasoni in making her landing. Yes terday morning a magazlno wound in Firings was tossed from the ship onto tho ferry and picked up by A. N. Nash, a passenger. The magazino contained a letter addressed to T. M. Leabo, secretary of tho Barbers' Union of this city. Mr. Nash delivered tho letter, and, to his sur prise, Mr. Lcabo learned that ono of his hods, a young man of about 20, was nmong tho prisoners on the Manila-bound lumber-carrier. Young Leabo explained, to his father that ho and a companion had been approached by a sailor boarding house master and enticed to go to Manila. They had been prolmsed a fine trip with practically nothing to do, and so were hustled on board without opportunity to ay good-by to their friends. Mr. Lea-bo had not felt alarmed over tho absence of tho boy from homo, because ho started out with th intention of going, to Scat ilo to find work, and It was while mak ing preparations for that trip that ho was onticcd to board tho Eskasoni. The noto does not reveal tho identity of young Lcabo's companion, but he, too, is a Port land boy, whoso parents aro of the opin ion that their son has gone to Seattle to SNAPSHOT OF CREW OF THE TO THE LEFT IN THE WCTUKIS JKE TOmOTC KIO LEVELED A REVOLVER AT THE MEN WITH THE INTIMATION THAT A BREAK FOR LIBERTY WOULD BE TO RISK THEIR UB6.

Mr. Leabo will see to it that his son is released from the vessel without delay. A letter addressed to The Orcgonlan and signed by F. O. Travcrs, ono of the ex perienced seamen, was also tossed over the side. It explains why tho men refuse to go to sea, as follows: The present crew, with the exception or one man, has been signed here in Portland from the Sailors' Home Jn thlsc!t Out of the present crew of 15 men there are only elr men who could be railed tea men and who could "be relied uoon to do a teaman's work In time of need. The other nine are totally incompetent to do the work of a eeaman, and, furthermore, with the ex ception of two or three men, arc unable to stay aloft even on the lower yards in the finest of weather and with the ship at anchor.

TROUBLE OX STEEL BRIDGE Employment or Nonunion Labor Has Prompted Union Men to Complain. There was considerable rouble on tho Steel bridge yesterday by reason of the fact that Contractor J. B. Tcllctson is employing nonunion labor. Eighteen members of tho Bridge &. Structural Iron Workers' Union, employed by Contrac tor Telletson in different parts of the city, struck yesterday because of non union men being employed on the bridgo and they say they will remain idle until union men are given the places of the nonunion men. The strikers were at the bridge dur ing the entire day and succeeded in ,per suading four of the 13 bridgeworkers to quit their jobs. C C Amos, to whom was sublet a part of the contract, was told that by Saturday all of the nonunion men will have quit working for 52.23 a day. when the union scale calls for $3.

SPOONING UNDER A BAN Employes In County Clerk's Office Looking;, for Joker. "No kissing or. spooning will be toler ated In tho vaults connected with tWs of fice. Osculation is strictly prohibited." Yesterday morning each of the abstract ors who copy records In the County Clerk's office for various companies they represent found this notice on his desk. The notices were unsigned, and their au thor was not disclosed. There are a num ber of pretty young women In the office who also are employed by the abstract companies, but their desks bore no no tices. Probably it was all a joke; no one seems to know; no one will telL The news spread, and soon there waa a buzz and stir in the office. County Clerk Fields also has a force of young women deputies at the other end of the office. They heard of the notices, and the subject was suffi cient for gossip for the remainder of the day. A delegation of those who received no tices waited upon Chief Deputy County Clerk Fred W. Prasp and asked if he had sent them. He denied all knowledge of the affair. Herman Schneider, a deputy In the office, also pleaded not guilty, as did the other deputies. The recipients of tho notices were downright mad. and de nied that they ever spooned. Still they did not demand an official Investigation. A. O. 31. Membership Contest Ends.
