14 THE MORXING OREGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY, MAT 16, 1906. MENAREIN DEMAND Roads Cannot Secure Enough Workmen. SAWMILLS'ALSO NEED THEM Kacli of the Roads Engaged in Cor etrnction Work on the North Banks Seeks to Obtain' Workmen From Other. Railroad contraotora are scouring; th city 1n search tor men to fill up their construction gangs and are meet ing with but little success at that. A striking- feature of th situation is the number of idle men around .fortianoj who are not taking advantage of the opportunities that offer for able-bodieu men !n many lines of activity. Employ ment agents say there Is plenty of work at good wages for all who will work and they have orders for many more men than they can find to take the jobs. Railroad work is offering in excesn of anvthinsr else at present, although logging camps and sawmills are in the labor market as well, with a small iee and free fare for those who will work on railroad construction, laborers are less willing; to take a job in lumber mills or logging damps, as they have to pay their own fare to get to tne job, Anxious to Secure Men. Rven If a man Is broke and has not the 50 cents or $1 to pay the employ ment agent his .fee. he need not stay idle, for the agents will often put sucn a man In the bunch of laborers they are ishiuDinir away and send him to a oon struction camp. Because of the great need for common labor in railroad work, the men are getting better treat ment than ever before, as the contract ors instruct their foremen to use every fffort to make the men stay wltn their Jobs. The rival railroad contractors along the north bank of the Columbia are so hard oreimed for lafcor that they have resorted to any means to get gangs of borers away from each other. A gang of 25 Italians, which was working for the Portland & Seattle contractors. went over to the Columbia Valley Railroad camps last week In a body, ss the Harrlman workers made over tures to the Italians and offered them macaroni and spaghetti three times a dav as long as they wanted to work. A report of the strategy by which the men were secured that was sent to the management of the road bore the statement of the contractor that he could keep the men as long as his supplies of Italian foodstuffs held out. Offered Rands a Job. Senator Rands, secretary, treasurer and right of way agent for the Colum bia Valley Railroad, was walking along the scene of operations by graders for his company last week, when he was overtaken by the foreman of a gang f laborers, who dtd not know him, and who tried to induce htm to accept a job as a shoveler. He declined with thanks, as did another official of the rond who was with him. Both had been visiting construction camps to see how they were progressing and were rough ly dressed, and the foreman thought they were men looking for work. The difficulty of getting men to RO to work after they are. hired for a Job worries many of the contractors. A gang of 47 men was secured for work at one of the railroad camps a few days Hgo. and transportation for that num ber was In the hands of a foreman who was to accompany the men from Port land to the camp where they were to go to work. Only 22 men appeared at the train and this number was les sened at The Dalles and Vmattlla, where they dropped off the train, their plan being evidently In signing up for a Job to get transportation out of town. The foreman arrived at his destination with only ten laborers, whereas he ex pected to have 7. The labor situation is sn!d to be a little less acute this week than a short time ago, the exodus from San Francis co apparently having helped fill the construction camps somewhat. Employ ment agents predict that later in the Summer and particularly after har vest begins the railroads will be fac ing a very serious difficulty to get labor. Will Start Work on Council Crest. It Is likely that within a short time work will begtn on the Council Crest loop of tiie Portland Railway Company, and that before FaJI a loop around Council Crest, with the highest point more than looo feet above the river, will be in opera tion. The right of way has been secured by the railway company, but the permis sion of the County Court to cross the county road at some points remains to be secured. President P. I. Fuller, of the Portland Railway Company, with County Commis sioners Frank C. Barnes and William L. l-.ightner. walked over the proposed route of the line, yesterday afternoon, and the Tossings desired were indicated by Mr. Fuller. The Commissioners will meet to day and a decision will probably be reached. It is said the chief thing to be arranged between the. railroad company and the county is the price of half an acre of land at the rock quarry, which is owned and operated by the county. Will Ivannoh Caissons From Scows. What mill probably be the first work of Its kind in the history of American toridge-bulldfng will be undertaken by Engineer Ernest Nlckerson In building and launching caissons from scows for use In the "Willamette River bridge for the Portland & Seattle Railway. Because of the shallow water at the St. Johns end of the bridge, the building of the caissons on shore and launching them like a. boat, the usual method. Is Impracticable. The plan of constructing the caissons be tween two barges and then cutting them loose from their supports prior to sinking them In the river was-hit upon by Mr. Nlckerson. and Engineer Ralph Modjeski, who Is .In charge of the building of both bridges, sanctioned the use of this means to overcome the difficulty. So far as known by Mr. Xlckerson this method of building caissons has never be fore been followed. Iouble Tr-k to Sell wood. Workmen today will begin double-tracking the Selfwood line of the Oregon Wa ter Power Oompany. at Holgate street and JMllwaukie avenue, and will lay - a track parallel to the main line for more than a mile. When this work Is finished the road will have a double track between Portland and Sellwood. Six Minutes for Directors' Meeting. What Is perhaps the record meeting of directors of any Northwestern railroad took place Monday at Ilwaco, when Gen eral Manager J. P. 0"Brien. of the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Company. con vened his board of directors in a private car while the train waited at Ilwaco, and 1n six minute the pending business wss transacted and the annual meeting of the board of directors was over. Mr. O'Brien, went to Ilwaco to look after the affairs of the I. R. A N., a small unit of the great Harrimah system, and to comply with the rule that the directors of the road must meet once each year. The road operates 15 miles of track, and steamers from Astoria to Ilwaco, a distance of 18 miles. Want Sleam Roller Engineers. Experienced engineers for steam road rollers are badly needed by the municipal civil service, and 35 cents an hour wages has thus far proved an insufficient at traction' to supply the demand. Those feeling themselves competent to meet the requirements of the situation would do well to consult Secretary McPherson, at the City Hail. Will Move Its Offices. The United Railways Company will move its offices this week from the fourth floor of the Chamber of Commerce build ing to the Commonwealth building, at Sixth and Burnside streets, which is now being remodelled and Is also the property of the Los Angeles capitalists who are behind the United Railways Company's projects. Railway Personals. H. E. LonnFbury. district freight agent for the Harrlman lines, spent yesterday In Salem on business. A. I Craig, general passenger agent for the Harrlman lines, will return the last of the week from a trip over the O. R. & N. lines. R. I. ronald. chief engineer of the Wil lamette Valley Traction Company, was looking after the interests of ms com pany in Salem yesterday. Gny W. Talbot, general manager of the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad and the Corvallis & Eastern, returned to Port land yesterday from Coronado, Cal., where he went to bring his family north. President Howard Elliott, Vice-President Louis Hill and General Manager H. J. Horn, of the Northern Pacific, are ex pected to reach Portland, by special train late this week. They will probably go from Portland by special boat to points along the north bank, where they will Inspect the work on the Portland & Se attle. ' WUi CORPORATION FOR PURPOSE OF BUILDING W ILLAMETTE VALLEY LINE. Capitalized at Two and a Half Million Dollars With Auxil iaries In Alliance. With a capitalization of J2.500.000. the Oregon Electric Railway Company, a cor poration supposed to represent the Wil lamette Valley Traction Company, first saw the light yesterday, when articles of Incorporation were filed with the County Clerk. With Moffatt & White, the New York capitalists behind it, the new organ ization proposes to build the electric line from Portland to the Upper Willamette Valley projected by the Willamette Valley Traction Company. The Incorporators of the company are Thomas Scott Brooke, H. L. Corbeit and R. W. Lewis. The articles were drawn by J. N. Teal. These gentlemen say they are not ready to give out the relationship of the new company to the v lllamette Valley Traction Company, but it is sup posed the new organization win act tor the former Moffatt & White corporation. The purposes of the Oregon Electric Railway Company are to build an electric railway from Portland soutn tnrougn ca lem to Roseburg. and to operate electric, power plants, telegraph and telephone lines, amusement parks and steamboats on the Willamette and Columbia Rivers and the Pacific Ocean. The company also plans a network of electric lines for the Willamette Valley. The Interurban I rftnd Company, an aux iliary corporation, was incorporated yes terday, with a capital stock of J2000. the objects being to acquire and deal in lands. lay out townsites, build docks and ware houses and other development projects. The Incorporators are F. J. Smith, W. A. Johnson and Margaret White. The head offices of both companies are to be located in Portland. William Stuart, who represents Moffatt & White, has spent the past few days in Portland in forming the new company. ' ASKS AID FOR ORPHANS National Mothers' and Daughters' Relief Committee Issues Appeal. Mrs. George E. Chamberlain, wife of the Governor of Oregon. has been chosen by the National Mothers and Daughters San Francisco Relief Fund Committee, to take charge of the work of that organization In this state. Mrs. Chamberlain Is one of the patronesses of the organization, in company with the wives of Governors in various other states and of many other promi nent women of the country. Copies or a letter stating In full the objects of the association and making a personal appeal for aid have been sent from the New York headquarters to Mrs. Cham berlain, and she is sending these out to wives and mothers in Portland. Al ready a number have been sent out and many others will be mailed with in the next few days. A copy of this letter, of which Mrs. John A. Logan is the author, Is as follows: Of all the sufferers from the unsaeakable disasters that have overtaken California, there are none which should appeal more tronely. especially to the women of the Nation, than the children. Think of these little ones being awakened from their innocent slumbers by the hideous sounds that rent the air that awful morning; of their fright hearing the tumult and the strife. They are still unconscious of the meaning of the excitement that surrounds them or why they do not return to their homes, or why their piteous cries for father and mother are still unanswered. They know not that they are fatherless, motherless, homeless and alone In the world. Put our own loved ones in such a Dosltlon and how our hearts would bleed! Would we not expect that to them would be given the relief they needed? It was to thoee who gave to the least of them who were naked, hungry and thirsty that the Lord promised the reward of eternal life. Let your hearts be touched for the little ones; deny yourselves something to contrib ute to the fund that is to give them immediate succor and to provide them with shelter and protection from the Ills and temptations of life until they are old enough to take up the battle for themselves. Among these helpless children there may be many who are destined for Important parts in the world's work in the future. Give generouely to the fund for these wards of the Nation; the state will be overburdened for years to come. Provide abundantly for the children who are the hipe of the country and the "heritage of the J-ord." If the women of the whole country would organise Into societies and work as diligently for this noble purpose as they have hitherto worked for charity, home and foreign mis sions, temperance and the church, every one of the legion of destitute children now crying for help in California would be saved for the service of God and our country. The children of the poorest and the richest citizen of California are now on equal foot ing In the race of life: they are alike de pendent upon charity and the care of the benevolent.

CHARGES WILli BE PUSHED Arrest of Masters of Oriental Liners for Violation of Law Expected. HONOLULU, May 15. The arrest of Captain Going of the steamer America, on March 31, for an alleged infraction of the shipping laws, was followed by a cable message from Washington directing the local officials not to proceed further In the matter pending instructions, and to make no other arrests. It is now reported that the action of the officials has been approved, and that they have been instructed to proceed. As a result, the arrest is expected, as they call here, of the captains of the Mongolia, Manchuria, Siberia, China, Coptic, Hong kong, Nippon, Doric and Korea, ' on charges of violation of the Federal ship ping laws by failing to provide legal steerage accommodations for passengers bound to .this port.

NEXT TRIAL WILL BE FINAL Attempt Will Be Made to Float the Elder When Storm Abates. J. H. Peterson states that no attempt will be made to float the steamer Geo. W. Elder until the strong southerly wind now blowing dies down. Everything is in readiness, however, so that the risky job can be done on short notice.

BOYS' AND GIRLS' AID Society Gives Its 21st Annual Re port, Showing Work Accomplished. Under the surveillance of the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society placed out in family homes there are nearly 400 children in different parts of Washing ton, Idaho and Oregon. The wards for the most part are in Oregon and with hardly an exception they are all re ceiving the very best of care. An agent is employed continually to look after these children to see that they receive the care and attention they require. The report of Superintendent W. T. Gardner at the 21st annual meeting of the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society, held In the offices of the City Board of Char ities last night, shows the immense scope of the work that Is being carried on by this society.
