THE MORNING OREGONL&S, TUESDAY", :STAY " 20," 1902.
ALL WILL GO OUT
Building Trades Prepare to
Order Strike
UNLESS PLANING HILLS YIELD
Over 2500 Men Will Rcf nse to Worlc
Wednesday Mornlngr If Striking
Woodworker Do Not Get
Sine-Hour Day.
A nine-hour day must be granted tho
Planinsr Mill Men's Union, or the mem
"bers of evory union affiliated with the
Building Trades Council will go on a
fctrlke Wednesday -morning. Thirteen
unions, the electricians, carpenters,
painters, plumbers, bricklayers, lathers,
sheet metal workers, shlnglers, bridge and
structural workers, hod-carriers, sand and
fuel drivers, glaziers and plasterers, com
prising a membership of over 2500 men,
will be called out at this time, provided
an adjustment Is not reached between the
planing mill owners and the strikers be
fore May ZL
Should the planing mill -owners still re
main firm In their determination not to
yield, absolutely all building will be shut
down. The call out does not take effect
only in places where the boycotted lum
ber Is in use, but orders that every union
affiliated with the council call out all of
Its men.
Last night's meeting has been looked
forward to for some time with great In
terest, as it was believed that the action
taken would practically decide the suc
cess or failure of the strikers. Much
doubt has been entertained as to what the
action would be, since the Planing Mill
Men's Union had neglected to become af
filiated with the Building Trades Coun
cil, and had not received their sanction
before declaring their strike. The coun
cil decided, however, that all organized
labor should stand together, and that the
mistakes made were of such a nature as
could be overlooked.
The Meeting:.
The meeting -was called to order shortly
after 8 o'clock. A committee from the
Federated Trades Council and a commit
tee from the Planing Mill Men's Union
were present to present the case of the
.strikers. Their argument was that the
present trouble is a test of union strength.
If It wins the union ehows itself to have
power. If It loses union power is lost, and
-every labor organization should do all
In its power to bring the strike to a fa
vorable termination. The strikers ex
plained that the mistakes they had made
had been due to a lack of understanding,
and that there had been no intention of
disregarding the authority of the council.
After stating their case they were allowed
to withdraw in order that the members
wou'.d feel at perfect liberty to express
their views.
TJe subject was then warmly discussed.
There were some present who were op
posed to taking such radical action for
the benefit of a comparatively few men,
and men who were not affiliated with
them. It was argued that the council
could announce lta support, and In this
way bluff the mlllowners Into concession
without any real action on their part.
Others wished the action postponed to
give, an opportunity for further develop
ments In the situation.
Radical Policy Dominant.
Those who favored the measure, how
ever, would not consent to a half-hearted
action or to a postponement "Bluff will
not work," said they, "and nothing will
be gained by postponement. Work is al
ready coming to a standstill for the lack
of lumber. People will not start to build
while things are so uncertain, and con
tractors will not take contracts. Many
men are now out of employment, and as
eoon as the contracts already taken are
done, many more will be out. Every day
the matter remains in uncertainty there Is
loss to all concerned. The only solution is
for us to declare ourselves for or against
the Issue at once. We can win or lose the
strike for the woodworkers. Let us either
declare that we will not help them at all,
and they will be forced to give in, or let
us give them every possible assistance
and they are sure to win. When the
Building Trades Council declares a lock
out, everything wUl stand still. Citizens
of Portland will entreat with the mlllown
ers to give in, and they cannot withhold."
After a very lengthy discussion the ques
tion was called for. The motion before
the house was:
"That the Building Trades Council de
clare a general lockout Wednesday morn
ing unless the demands of the Amalgam
ated Woodworkers for a nine-hour day
are granted before that time."
Majority Favored Action.
The vote showed that the large majority
of tlose present were In favor of the lock
out, and the motion was carried.
The president then charged them to go
In to win, and said that the walkout must
be without exception. Not only would
those working with boycotted lumber be
called out, but every man under the juris
diction of the Building Trades Council.
The union men believe that this action
will bring the strike to a speedy termina
tion, but should the mill owners still
hold out, they will probably ask the Fed
erated Trades Council to call out every
union man in the city until the point Is
won.
THE EXPOSITION SITE.
A Resident of Buffalo Favors the
City Parle
BUFFALO, N. Y., May 14. (To the Edi
tor.) Through courtesy of a friend of
mine in this city I often receive your
paper, which I think comes so near be'pg
an organ of the people and for the peo
ple's best interests it Inspires me by its
freedom from mercenary policy, save and
except where such leads to the greatest
good for the greatest number of worthy
people.
The expression of opinion, through its
columns, as to the best site for your Cen
tennial Exposition gives an outsider free
access to motives and policies always en
gendered by public projects of such pro
portion? as an exposition essentially is;
hence it becomes a matter of much con
eequence to weigh carefully the evidence
before coming to a decision upon such
vital features as the site question.
While far away from your city, yet
having frequently visited it within the
past 12 years, I feel closely In touch with
Its grand outlook, and from the interest
shown in selection of the best site for the
coming centennial, I know its choice in
volves the welfare of your city and -the
nuccess of the exposition In a most posi
tive manner.
Prior to the selection of a site for the
Pan-American Exposition In Buffalo, much
contention for the preference of location
kept our people in keen suspense for sev
eral months, and finally private Interests
gained over public benefits, and our city
Is now losing many valuable features that
should and could have been permanent,
such as the tower. Music Hall and Stad
ium, with others of greater or lesser
value, that could have been constructed
with little extra cost for durable pur
poses, if the permanent site for them had
been chosen. Our park presented Just
such available location, whose selection
was advocated by myself and many other
citizens, but the private Interest pressure
dominated and destroyed the chance of
saving what we were spending In form
of rental for land and structures of great
value, now being destroyed, and all or
lack of conservative public forethought
a species of waste that baffles reason. It
should be the permanent, not temporary,
good only of the city, which warrants the
great expense of preparing for such a
show; hence everything that gives In
creased attractiveness, while saving in.
permanent structures much of the outlay
for building, s'juld be of first interest.
Only can such be realized where the site
Is located upon public property, as the
City Park lands, whose grand outlook
inspires any and all whoever stood upon
its terraces, overlooking vistas of nature
not equaled in America we doubt if the
world has the duplicate. What sublime
peaks In the Cascade Range, Mounts
Hood, Adams, St. Helens, Rainier and
lesser monarchs, in hoary dignity, re
splendent with, crystal spires that glisten
In the rich sunlight, when the morning
comes down over the mountains! Who
can express that lnexpressable beauty,
seen In fullest grandeur from the heights
back of your City Park. To best effect
are also seen noble rivers, Columbia and
Willamette, carrying the products of
mines, factories and farms of that phe
nomenal field of Nature to the great mar
kets of the world, vast fertile valleys
also, whose wealth Is only now being
tested, lay there, spread before the gaze
of all who have the privilege of standing
upon that vantage ground a kaleidoscopic
review of wealth of Nature surround
ing those heights, which makes the
city a veritable Mecca, towards which the
eyes of the world will look with keenest
pleasure and impel the tourist, toller and
people of affairs alike to visit Portland
and there revel In nature and art, hung
in galleries only found where creative
genius placed them. Just think a mo
ment what vantage ground that Is! Away
from the din and dust of the city, yet
within a few minutes of Its center and
constantly in view of It. while able to
feast in Nature's own richest resorts.
To place this exposition upon any of
the low lands or congested sites proposed
by those whose tastes are either curbed
by range of experience or controlled by
personal profits, would relegate the show
to a common level with those of the past
in cities devoid of the Unique grandeur
of location that must Inspire the minds
of all who know Its loveliness. We have
read of Babylon's gardens. How much
grander are those templed hills, filled with
tho halls of art and Industry, hung with
the wealth of Oregon, gilded by her golden
mornings, shaded by her cool fir trees and
bathed in her crimson sunsets at Colum
bia's gateway to the Orient.
To reach that ideal site a few short
winding boulevards up the roads now
used would complete the grandeur in
driving to or from the city and the rose
centennial. People from everywhere will
make this great "mllepost in the march
of civilization" its one object in the Sum
mer of 1905. That site is practicable, pos
sible and most beautiful

The Frawley company, with Benjamin
Howard substituted for its founder, and
without Mary Van Buron, opened a week's
engagement at the Marquam last night
In Augustus Thomas' great play., "Ala
bama," which they presented in a manner
which was pleasing to a good house. The
appearance of Mr. Howard in so good a
part as that of Captain Davenport was
especially welcome, for while he was last
here with tbe Frawleys he had little op
portunity for the display of his really fine
talents as a leading man. He gave to
the part a finish, a grace, and a natural
ness that made it, as it was meant to be,
the central figure of the play, and his
reading of the beautiful lines that Thomas
wrote for the character was thoroughly
enjoyable. Mr. Howard Is an addition to
the Frawley company which makes up
for many losses, and those who saw him
la3t mVht look forward with pleasure to
the enjoyment of his work In the other
plays of the repertoire. H. S. Duffleld,
always a reliable stand-by in the com
pany, was cast as Colonel Moberly, and
In accent and bearing was a fine picture
of the chivalrous old survivor of the Con
federacy. J. D. Murphy, the new come
dian of the company, had little chance as
Squlrd Tucker, but did a great deal with
the part. Ben Johnson fell something
short of the requirements of Colonel
Preston, but there are few men on the
stage who can play It as It should be
played. Herbert Ashton, as Raymond
Page, supplied all the vllliany Thomas has
allowed to creep Into the play; Reginald
Travcrs was a good Decatur, and Charles
Fleming as Armstrong was an ardent
lover.
Mlnnette Barrett was welcomed enthusi
astically by her many friends In the audi
ence when she appeared as Carey Pres
ton. She has never before played so Im
portant a roje in Portland, and the de
cided improvement that she shows was an
especial source of gratification to those
who have been predicting bright things
for her future. Blanche Douglas was a
gracious Mrs. Page, and Phosa McAllister,
who Is a capital actress, and does well
any part to which she is assigned, made
a feature of the role of Mrs. Page. The
play 1 handsomely mounted, the atmos
phere that is necessary to its production
being supplied abundantly by the setting.
It will be repeated tonight, and will be
followed Wednesday by "Sweet Laven
der." Souvenir Matinee.
A handsome souvenir set of photo
graphs of Ralph Stuart and the Stuart
company will be given to all the women
who attend the Sunday matinee perform

ITS CENTENNIAL YEAR
WEST POINT MILITARY ACADEMY
FOUNDED 100 YEAltS AGO.
Imposing: Ceremonies to Be Held
There This Coming: June, Dur
ing: Graduation Period.
WEST-POINT, May 16. The centennial
exercises commemorating the founding of
the West Point Military Academy will
be celebrated June 9, 10, 11 and 12, with
imposing ceremonies. The President ani
his Cabinet, Lieu tenant-General Miles, and
aH other Generals and officers of the
Army who can be spared will be present.
All graduates and former cadets will fra
ternize with the class at the academy
during the celebration. With foreign rep
resentatives mingling with the uniforms
of American officers, field movements of
the cadets, the blare of bands and the
thunder of cannon promise to make It one
of the most brilliant spectacles ever seen.
West Point Is conceded to be the best
TYPE OF BAR DREDGE SUGGESTED FOR COLUMBIA RIVER.
DOBS EFFICIENT WORK IN THE HARBOR OF EAST LONDON, SOUTH AFRICA.
ASTORIA, May 10. Captain A. E. McCann, Orsgon bar pilot. Is a strong advocate of an ocean dredger, to open the channel
at the mouth of tbe Columbia. He has secured photographs and description of the dredger Kate, which Is used for a similar
purpose In the harbor of East London. South Africa. The Kate Is what is known as a sand-pump hopper dredger. She was
built in 1697 for the East London Harbor Board apd her dimensions are: Length, 200 feet; beam, 39 feet; depth, 14.5 feet; hop
per capacity 1000 tons of dredglngs. The pumping arrangements for filling the hopper with sand or discharging it overboard
consist of two centrifugal pumps, each pump being driven by one of tbe propelling engines. Tbe suction pipes are each 27
Inches in diameter, and are so arranged that they may be used for pumping either forward or aft. as the conditions ol the
weather may require. Four steam cranes are provided for manipulating the suction pipes. Owing to the heavy weather with
which the vessel has to contend, special precautions aro taken In designing the attachment of the suction pipes to the ves
sel. The attachment is aboe-deck, and consists of a series of Jplnts, which give a perfectly free and universal movement to
the upper ends of tbe pipes. The Joints on each side of the vessel are attached to a carriage, which Is traversed laterally by
hydraulic gear. By this means the pipes are pushed out, well clear of the vessel's sides when pumping, and are brought on
board when not at work. Hydraulic-cushioning cylinders are provided to give required resistance to any fore and aft move
ment of the pipes.
The following Is an extract from the East London Dally Despatch of Friday, July 7, 1899, under the head. "Dredging at
the Bar": "The secretary read the report of the resident engineer, which stated a good day's work was performed by the
Kate on Tuesday. The quantity of spoil removed from bejond the works was 4700 tons. The ship's work for the month of
June has been a record, some 04.000 tons of sand being removed. The soundings at the entrance show a depth of at least
17 feet 0 Inches at low water. The best depth Is 31 feet. It is interesting to note the corresponding depths at the entrance
for some years past prior to the arrival of the new dredser."
The primary object of the harbor authorities of East London In ordering a vessel of such sower as the Kate was to secure
and maintain all the year round a minimum depth of 18 feet at low water. The following facts -v 111 show how the require
ments of the owners are met by the work of the Kate: "When the vessel arrived at East London. July 18, 1897, there was a
depth of 14 feet on the bar at high water. On'October 10, scarcely three months afterward, there was a depth of 20 feet on
the bar at low tide. "Working 21 days, In rough weather In the month of November, JS3S, the Kate raised and deposlted2i
miles at sea CO.000 tons of dredglngs. Her best day's work In 12 hours was on the 7th of that month, when she dredged and
deposited G440 tons.
military school in the world; It Is an In
stitution in which every person in the
United States may take pride. For this
reason if for no other the Governors of
the states and territories should grace
the West Point Centennial with their
presence.
The academy, perhaps the greatest in
stitution of history, had its founding fa
vored by Washington. The site Is sup
posed to have been recommended by
Kosciusko, Poland's great soldier of lib
erty. From its halls have gone young men
who became renowned as the most illus
trious Generals and others were distin
guished as Governors, Cabinet officers,
diplomats, scientists, professional and
business men.
West Point Officer.
After his return from the war with
Mexico In 1S47-4S, the late brevet Lieu-tenant-General
Wlnfield Scott, who re
delved his appointment from civil life but
did not have that narrow prejudice and
antipathy toward West Point officers that
some of our latter day military officers
and men of high position have. In giving
his opinion of the West Point graduate,
said:
"I give it as my fixed opinion, but for
our graduate cadets, the war between
the United States and Mexico might, and
probably would, have lasted some four
or five years; with. In the first half, more
defeats than victories falling to our share;
whereas. In less than two campaigns we
conquered a great country without the
loss of a single battle or skirmish."
Many of the graduates of the Point have
become famous In our history- Grant was
the most successful soldier of his time.
Lee the most heroic defender of a losing
cause. McClellan the great organizer that
gave us the proudest armies ever known.
Sheridan and Stonewall Jackson tho dar
ing riders, who swept everything before
them. Sherman, brilliant with sword or
pen, made his ever memorable march to
the sea. Thomas met the surge of blood
as the "Rock of Chlckamauga," and gave
us Nashville. Howard, the Christian eol
dler, selected Gettysburg. Hancock in his
superb manhood checked the tide of re
bellion on that terrible field and Meade
won the battle. Warren saved the day
at Five Forks and died broken-hearted.
McPherson. the knightly soldier, fell near
Atlanta. Slccuxn rode with Sherman
through Georgia and .the Carollnaa, and
Custer went down to death in the midst
of howling, shrieking savages.
Not Only For Soldier.
Others than soldiers have gone forth
into the world from thli institution, show
ing that it Is an educational school as
well as a military school. It has among
its living graduates such diplomats as
Porter, Hardy add Rathbone, such au
thors as Hardy, King, Savage and William
J. Roe; lawyers like Andrews and Bacon
and Blair; a State Governor, Upham;
among college presidents and professors,
Webb, Chaplin, Fletcher Soulc and Mar
tin, and among scientists Hold en and
Qulnan; a clergyman, Deshon, and Totten
a prophet: engineers like Haupt, Hale,
Griffin and Rogers; business men and
financiers such as Dowd, Du Pont, Greene.
Farragut, Garretson, Heir, Ledyard and
Roe. This Is not intended to be by any
means an exhaustive list but only to sug
gest a class of men from whom a strong
committee might be formed to co-operate
with the local committee and widen the
riubllc interest in a celebration which
should be representative, not alone ct
Army graduates, but of those who have
succeeded In civil life.
The celebration Is to open tho afternoon
of June 9, 1302, and continue four days.
The opening day Is Alumni Day, and the
second day Field Day. The third day,
Wednesday, June 11, is Centennial Day.
The celebration closes with the graduat

HARRISON'S WINE.
Plea of a University Student as to
Its Sudden Disappearance.
Beverages.
The late President Harrison was a con
noisseur of rare old wines, although he
was extremely temperate In his use of
them. At the time when he visited Stan
ford University to deliver four lectures
on International law for a fee of $10,000
(which is probably the record price for
university lectures), he was quartered In
one of the college halls, where a suite of
rooms had been especially prepared for
him. Immediately after his arrival there
came also a case of carefully selected
clarets. Burgundies and Madeiras, which
were placed in one of the rooms set apart
for his use.
The next day all these wines had disap
peared, and the only remainder of their
previous existence was found in a long
train of empty bottles In the midst of the
campus. When President Jordan heard
of this he summoned, before him the stu
dents of the university and made them a
little address, in the course of which he
said that he was about to Institute an
Investigation Into the purloining of Mr.
Harrison's wines, and that it would go
much easier with the guilty persons if
they would have the manliness to come
forward and own up. After he had ceased
speaking ther.e was a long pause, and
impurities.

presently one of the students In the back
part of thl room rose and said wlth a
bland, Impersonal air:
"Mr. President, the by-laws of the.
university forbid the bringing of any
wines or spirituous liquors upon the uni
versity grounds or Into the university
buildings. Consequently, if any wines
or spirituous liquors have been so brought
In; and if they have disappeared, which
we all regret, they have probably been
seized as contraband, and therefore the
owner has no redress."
President Jordan made a few somewhat
Inarticulate remarks, and then dismissed
the meeting. Nothing more was said about
the wine, and it Is probable that Mr. Har
rison's legal mind recognized the force of
the point that had been raised against
him.
