NO MORE BUILDING
AlUConstruction Wonk-at a
Standstill. '
AS'foESULT OF THE WALK-OUT
Threat of Bulldins: Trade Council
Carried Out and "Work on 250
Bnlldlngrs Cense Fortb-
TVitb.
Building has ceased In Portland. Faith
ful, to the order of the Building Trades
Council, the 13 unions in the affiliation
did no -work yesterday. All the members
of the unions, about 2400 men, went on a
strike. The tie-up Is 'complete. Unfin
ished structures stand silent and deserted
In all parts of the city, -without a single
echo of -workmen's tools.
Nobody knows how far the strike will
extend. Both sides In the dispute are
firm and each declares It is in the strug
gle to win. It Is rumored - that other
unions may take up the gauntlet flung
down by the planing mills and make com
mon cause with the strikers. This will
be decided upon Friday night at the Tegu
lar meeting of the Federated Trades
Council. It was whispered about town
yesterday that the ship carpenters may
also enter the contest. The "Water Front
Federation is another of the organiza
tions ihat has put on its thinking cap.
The strike has put all labor unions agog.
It is the engrossing topic of discussion
ii every workman's circle and In every
workman's home. It monopolizes public
corners, private offices, the domain of the
housewife and the haunts of school chil
dren. It Is looked upon by the sober ele
ment of the community as charged with
serious 6tress, If It passes beyond its pres
ent confines to a wider scope. "How's'tho
strike?" was the common question yester
day, alike of the laborer, the mechanic
and the business man.
Strikers on Picket Duty.
Scouting parties of strikers covered all
the town. They brought back word to
headquarters that little work was doing.
They had come upon some non-union men
who had yielded to their persuasion to
cease work. But others were obdurate.
In no larger number, however, than could
be counted on one's fingers. "We told
one of these stubborn fellows that he
should make common cause with his
fellow-workmen," reported a scout, "but
he told us to mind our own business."
" Tve got to work,' said he,"
" 'So do we, but we've got to look out
for the future.'
" "Well, I prefer to look out for tho
present.'
" "Very good; but listen. The future
will by-and-by be the present. Then
you'll want a job and won't get It. Only
union men will find work. And I promise
you will cool your heels outside the union
door a long time before you get admis
sion.' "
Masters of Situation.
So completely is the situation in the
hands of the strikers that building was
everywhere suspended, except In two or
three places. At the southeast corner of
East Belmont and E&st Salmon streets a
non-union force of men was striving to
keep ahead of the encroaching advance
of the back-water from the river. The
Advance Thresher Company is trying to
establish the foundations of a warehouse
there. Late yesterday afternoon some of
the concrete pillars hardly peeped above
the water and others were entirely sub
merged. At the corner of East Sixth and East
Mill street non-union carpenters were at
work on a new house for a union tailor.
The men were Seventh Day Adventlsts
and said that their religion inhibited their
joining a labor union. "Carry It up to the
union tailor," put in a striker. So the
matter is now up to that .gentleman.
Union Mill Running.
Construction of Frank Schmidt's door
factory on East Eighth, between East
Taylor and East Tamhlll streets, went
forward without Interruption. Union
hands were employed. Its owner will
make the mill a strictly union one, will
work his men only nine hours a day, will
pay the union scale of wages and will
.hire only union men. This plant will be
finished in time to begin operations by
next month. "Here's cud .for the non
union mills to chew," said a strike leader.
"Here's a mill that will adopt the union
rules and on that basis will meet the
'competition of which the established
mills have such horror. This plant will
employ ICO men and will run night and
day."
Union labor also continued onthe east
approach to the Morrison-street bridge,
where repairs are in urgent need. "In
order to protect the public from danger,
this work has been allowed to proceed,"
eaid J. K. Carr, president of the Building
Trades Council.
On the corner of Fourteenth and Pine
streets repair of a house was also allowed
to go on. The roof had been removed.
The family asked that It might be re
placed. Inasmuch as they were living In
the house. As the work would take only
a few days, no objection was raised.
Two union men were engaged in finish
ing" a concrete walk at the corner of
Park and Taylor streets. "Why don't we
quit?" they echoed to the question. "Be
cause If we did, we should lose a large
part of what we have done. But we shall
finish In an hour or two. Then we shall
strike also. No; the union won't kick.
It understands why we work."
The strike has not extended to men who
do excavation work, nor to teamsters who
haul away earth from sites of new build
ings. At a number of places excavating
and hauling was going on yesterday. "No;
the union hasn't been after me yet," said
a contractor. "Until it does, I shall keep
at work as usuaL" President Carr said
that excavators and teamsters employed
with them would probably not be called
out at present. He said the strike was
not. aimed at building, but at unfair
mllls. The product of such mills was
not' useOn excayatlng and therefore the
Building .Trades were content to let that
work continue.
"What the. Striker Say. .
The -strikers say the life principle of
unionism Is the issue at stake in the
present struggle. Since this Issue is up,
they are determined to make a stand to
insure the life of their organization.
"What have the mills got to fear from
us?" said one of them. "Outside com
petition, which they allege would crowd
them... out of business, if they yielded to
our 'demands, we can protect them
against. We can make it so that no un
fair material can be brought In here from
other places. Our trades would refuse to
work on it.
"If the planing mills grant a nine-hour
day and the union scale of wages, the
Building Trades Council will protect their
output and will see that no non-union
materials are shipped In from outside
places. But If they refuse, we ourselves
will go outside for materials. We should
not like to d6 this, because we fully ap
preciate the benefits of home industry.
However, it is home industry that we are
working for."
J. E. Liewton, secretary of the Build
ing Trades. Council, said: "If the planing
mills will grant a nine-hour day, pay
union wages and employ union men only,
we will boycott every mill on the Pacific
Coast that does not do likewise. We are
strongly organized since the State Fed
eration of Labor was formed. We can
cause at once every affiliated union to re
ject unfair building materials."
Union sand and brick teamsters were
air'out. Proprietors of brick and sand
yards sent out no building materials.
The strikers declare the game has only
just begun, and that they have plenty of
cards up their sleeve. They say they will
bring railroad employes Into the game If
the mills do not give in. "The trainmen
will refuse to handle unfair stuff out of
Portland." said a striker. "Where will
that land the mills?" he asked. "Do they
think they can get outside markets If it
comes to this show-down?"
A switchman and a nonunion employo
of a mill yesterday had a conversation.
"Oh, J suppose if we keep getting this
stuff out. It will be used, all right."
"No, it won't."
"Well, it will be shipped out, then."
"Not so sure about that."
"Why?" t
"We have n. union, too."
"How does that affect me?"
"We won't haul it."
"Well, what of that?"
"If we won't haulw it, how will It reach
outside markets?"
Contractor in a. Bad Fix.
A contractor on the East Side was
wringing his hands yesterday. He had
bound himself by a bond of $3000 and a
$10 a day penalty to finish a building on
a certain date. The owners of the build
ing declared they would hold him to his
XO OJTEJ
agreement. "It means ruin to me," al
most walled the contractor. He has ap
pealed to the Building Trades Council for
relief.
The painters who were employed at Sup
pie's boatyard to paint the free baths
also struck yesterday. Mr. Supple put
ship carpenters at the work, and they
took to it readily. He does not expect to
hear any remonstrance, inasmuch as the
baths will be a public Institution, and
there is a popular demand for their early
completion.
The strikers feel particularly incensed
at the Advance"Thresher Company, which
is building the foundations of a ware
house on the East Side. They allege that
Mr. Grlflls, the contractor, his been em
ploying nonunion men for some time. J.
O. Humphrey, manager of the company,
said his firm, needed the building right
away. "Our contractor had to take what
men he could get. The water has been
coming up and he had to keep abreast
of it. Our business absolutely requires
this. If he had -not employed nonunion
men, our firm "would have lost money by
delay until the river receded. The work
will go on unless the union stops It."
Work on the warehouse of the Deere
Plow Company, and of Studebakcr Bros.,
near by, has stopped.
"The mills eay they cannot compete
with the East, remarked an argumenta
tive striker. "Then they say In the next
breath that if the carpenters will not use
their products they will ship East. How's
that for logic? Wouldn't it Jar you?"
Four building permits were Issued yes
terday. Three were for dwellings and one
was for a barn. E. L. Waldele plans to
build a cottage on Spokane avenue, be
tween East Seventeenth and East Nine
teenth streets, to cost $1000. Mrs. Irving
received a permit to build a cottage on
Rodney avenue, between Russell and
Knott streets. H. L. Pratt Intends to make
repairs to a house on East Salmon street,
between Grand avenue and East Sixth
street The cost will be $1650.
TWO STRIKERS FIGHT.
One Man Resented Being; Called a
Scab.
Two of the strikers Indulged In a lively
fist fight last night about 6 o'clock at
Third and Yamhill streets. Wurt Cason,
a bricklayer, and W. .Cook, a hodcarrler,
exchanged a few words and one Jokingly
accused the other lof being a scab, and a
fight ensued. They "were parted before
either was seriously hurt.
Cook was standing on the corner wait
ing for a car, when Cason came along.
"Hello, old man," said Cook. "Where
you working today?" Cason had been
drinking and was not in a humor to be
thus familiarly accosted. "None of your
business," said he, "what I have been
doing." "You haven't been scabbing, have
you?" said Cook, Jeeringly.
The suggestion that he might be a scab
was too much for Cason to tolerate, and
he made a violent pass at his "man, hit
ting him a hard one right under the eye.
Bystanders Immediately interfered and
the men were not allowed to have It out.
Cook says he would like to have another
chance at his assailant, and believes he
could avenge the black eye he will be
forced to wear for a few weeks.
Baker City Brevities.
BAKER CITY, May 2L The Rev. A.
Corbett, of Everett, Wash..has accepted
the call of the Episcopal church of this
city. The church in this city has been
a mission church until about the first of
the year, when an Independent parish
was organized. Archdeacon Glover, of
Portland, has been here for the past
week as the representative of Bishop
Morris, getting the business of the new
parish In shape for the coming of a pas
tor. The church has been without a min
ister since last Fall. Rev. Corbett will
be the first pastor of the new parish.
C. W. Baldwin, foreman of Bennett's
planing mill, lost the thumb of his right
hand yesterday morning. The thumb
caught between a board and the saw and
was taken off so quickly that he did not
know it Until he saw blood on the board.
Within the next 30 days It is expected
that work will be resumed on the Sis
ters' Convent In this city. Architect
Bennes has gone to Portland to consult
Archbishop Christie and to secure his
signature to an order for the work.
A report came from Huntington yester
day that Miss Hull and Miss Drew, the
young lady school teachers who were
tried before Justice Messlck, of this city,
on the charge -of assault and battery on
the person of Wilson Woods, and who
were 'discharged, have been arrested
again on another complaint, sworn out
before a Huntington Justice.
The Best Liniment.
'I have derived great benefit from the
use of Chamberlain's Pain Balm for
rheumatism and lumbago," says Mrs.
Anna Hagelgans, of Tuckahoe, N. J. "My
husband used It for a sprained back and
was also quickly relieved. In fact, it is the
best family liniment I have ever used. I
would not think of being without It I
have recommended It to many, and they
always speak very highly of It and declare
its merits are wonderful." For sale by

TWO GERMAN SHIPS CLEAR
"WHEAT FOR EUROPE AXD LUMBER
FOR THE EAST.
Overdue Elder Arrives From San
Francisco Boarding-House Com
' bine Mar Advance Sailors' Rates.
Two big German ships cleared yester
day with Oregon cargoes for Europe and
the Far East. The Nomla was dispatched
by the Northwest Warehouse Company
for Queenstown or Falmouth for orders
with 115,566 bushels of wheat, valued at
578,500. The Carl was cleared by the Pa
cific Export Lumber Company for Tslng
tau with a cargo of lumber and piling.
The Nomla brings the season's grain fleet
from Portland up to a total of 120 ships,
and Is the second vessel to clear -this
month. The Lord Shaftesbury, which Is
now loading, will also finish this month.
WAS "WORKIKG AT FOURTH AKD
but the numerical strength of the fleet
even then will be smaller than In any pre
vious month this season, and the lumber
fleet for foreign ports' will probably out
number the grain fleet. The Nomla will
probably remain in port a day -or two, as
she has not yet secured a full crew.
The Carl will leave down today. She
has on board 1107 piles, measuring 1,359,181
feet, also 146,393 feot of lumber, and 41
cords, or about 62,076 feet of slab wood.
Tslngtau is not seriously In need of slab
wood, but the consignment mentioned was
sent along to be used In as dunnage for
the piling, which does not stow very read
ily on sailing ships.
BARGE BROKEN TO PIECES.
The "Wnhklnknm, RocK-Lnden, Swept
Ashore on North Bench.
ILWACO, Wash.. May 21. Hale &
Kern's rock barge Wahkiakum, In tow of
the tug Samson, to Gray's Harbor, came
In on North Beach, opposite Seaview. at
9:30 A. M. The barge has gono to pieces,
and is a total loss.' It was valued at
$23,000, and Its cargo at about $1600.
ASTORIA, May 21. The tug Samson
started out about 4:30 o'clock this morn
ing for Gray's Harbor with the Wahkia
kum, loaded with rock. In tow. The barge
was In command of Captain John Tobln,
and, besides the mate, there were on
board eight men, who were going to work
on the Gray's Harbor jetty. The mouth
of the river was reached about 6 o'clock,
when It was extreme low water and the
bar breaking. When about half way out,
the barge struck bottom hard, and a few
moments later struck again. Water
rushed In too fast to attempt to pump It
out, so the tug offered assistance. To
avoid her sinking In the channel, the
Wahkiakum was towed north and as near
the beach as possible and then cut loose.
A few minutes later she went ashore
about two miles north of the North Head
light, and the seas are now breaking over
her. All the men were rescued, and Cap
tain Randall, of the Samson, was severely
bruised about the limbs.
RATES MAY ADVANCE.
Boarding-House Combination Said to
Be Contemplating Higher Figures.
There is a rumor along the waterfront
that the boarding-house men will advance
rates on sailors tc $75 per Jnan. xThls rise
In rates is "due to the recent addition to
the number of men engaged In the busi
ness, and is probably the foreunner of the
I usual disturbance wlhch takes place peri
odically. Betewen grafting captains, sus
picious owners and unscrupulous boarding-house
men, the big exporters of the
port who use their best endeavors to keep
down rates have a hard proposition on
their hands. The $55 rate, which followed
the $105 rate (the straw that broke the
camel's back), worked very satisfactorily
for a long time, and local agents, who
were Instrumental in keeping it down to
that figure could undoubtedly have held
it there indefinitely had they been backed
up by the owners.
Instead of receiving the support of tho
owners, they are now being "roasted" In
Fairplay, the British shipping publica
tion, and some of them will probably re
gard with a mild degree of Indifference
the present move toward exorbitant fig
ures. History will repeat itself, however,
and after rates become too oppressive,
there will be another upheaval, followed
by lower rates.
ELDER SAFE IN PORT.
Had One of the Roughest Passages
She Ever Experienced.
ASTORIA, Or., May 21. The steamer
Geo. W. Elder crossed In at 5 o'clock this
evening, 36 hours late, from San Fran
cisco, after one of the roughest passages
she ever experienced. Captain Clem Ran
dall, in speaking of the trip, said that
after leaving Sah Francisco the steamer
ran into a northwester, and It) was Im
possible to piss Point Reyes. The wind
was blowing at the hurricane rate of at
least 75 miles an hour. He put into
Drake's Bay, where he was compelled to
remain for 14 hours. There were seven
other steamers which had made this bay
a haven of refuge, and among them were
the Teraplo, Alliance, Acrata, Brunswick
and Tltanla. They were still there when
the Elder left. At that time the storm
had moderated somewhat, but the sea
was running high and at times the water
was thrown clear over the smokestack,
which Is lncrusted with salt. There was,
however, no accident of any kind during
the passage.
BUT FEW GRAIN SHIPS DUE.
French Bark Jacohsen Is About the
Only Chartered Ship Near By.
The French bark Jacobsen is out 120
days from Nantes for this port, and if
she makes as good a passage as some of
the bounty-fed flyers which come out here
In light ballast trim, she is fully due.
Unles3 there are some ships 'riot listed,
near at hand, the Jacobsen is the only
sailing grain vessel now due here. The
Cypromene has been"out from- Antwerp
long enough to be here. Taut she met with
a slight disaster and was obliged to put
into the Falkland Islands for .repairs. The
Sierra Estrella, which Is coming from
Liverpool with a cargo of salt .and mis
cellaneous freight, Is due early in June,
and there may be a ship or two along
from the Hawaiian. Islands within the
next month. Disengaged tqnnage is in
creasing at San Francisco and Puget
Sound, but, from present indications,
there will be but few idle ships in this
port for a long time. The'Speke would
have been fixed a long time ago had she
been a little smaller, and In spite of her
size, will probably be taken up before the
end of the month.
Movlngr the Stranded TJarodo.
MABSHFIELD, May 21. According to
reports received from Bandon this even
ing Captain William Burns, who has
charge of the stranded bark Baroda,
which lies on the beach eight miles south
of the Coquille River, has great hopes of
getting his ship Into deep water tomor
row afternoon. Today Captain Burns suc
ceeded in moving the Baroda about 200
feet seaward without the assistance of
the tug. The eea was very smooth, and

Preliminary Spin of the Prehle.
S.AN FRANCISCO, May 21. The torpedo
boat destroyer" Preble, launched at the
Union Iron Works on March 2 a year
ago, and found lacking in speed, has been
taken on a preliminary spin around the
bay, alterations In her model having been
made. Forced draught was not $fed, but
a speed of 23 knots was maintained over
the measured mile, which was covered 12
times and 24 knots an hour was recorded
on the retufn trip. With forced draught
it Is claimed that there will be no trouble

SUES HIS COUSIN.
H. J. Crocker Seeks Damages In
curred "by a Snle of Club Stock.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 21. Henry J.
Crocker has brought suit against his cous-
in. William H. Crocker, asking damages
in the sura of $39,475. Henry Crocker was
the owner of 750 shares of the Pacific
Coast Jockey Club, worth $100 a share.
He was also the owner of 665 shares of the
"Western Turf Association stock, worth
$41 25 a share. Henry Crocker asserts that
l he turned his racing etock over to his
cousin to sell for him to the beet advan
tage, and that William H. Crocker manlp
ulated the stock In his own Interest, hav
ing entered Into an arrangement with
Prince Ponintowsk! to obtain control of
the stock of the two racing associations.
"William Crocker placed the stock with
George W. Kline, a broker, who disposed
of it to Poniatowskl at $31 25 per share
for the Western Turf, and $44 for Jockey
Club, and had agreed to take in payment

ed to repudiate the sale, but Kline said
this could not be done as he had acted

bonds of the Sierra Valley Railroad, and
Instead of $62 50 In cash $7566 25. Henry
J. Crocker claims the bonds were of small
value, not over $5400, and he also says that
the sale was not a bona fide one, but .that
William H. Crocker engineered the 'deal
