THE MORNESG OREGONIAN, SATURDAY. JANUARY 3, 1903, STRIKE GALLED OFF Trouble on the Ocean Steam ers at an End, UNION MEN NOW EMPLOYED Elder Satin for San Frnncinco With Association 3Icn Xo Change in the River Situation. The marine engineers' strike, so far as the ocean steamers of the O. R. & N. Co. are concerned, Is a thing of the past. The following dispatch was received yesterday: San Francisco, Jan. 2. The marine engineers here have called off the strike on the O. R. & K. ocean boats. The strlko was not Justified, the men were satisfied. The strike on the river boats here Is still on. but It is believed the action taken at S in Francisco Is the beginning of the end. This is the view of both strikers and em pioyem though looking from different standpoints. The strikers believe the rec ognition of union men on the ocean ves sels Is a point gained in their favor, while steamboat owners are satlslled that the fcilare of the deep-water engineers to sup port the river men will cause the latter to give up the struggle. As a result of calling off the strike on tbf Portland-San Francisco steamers the Geo. W. Elder left Alnsworth dock' last r.'ght for the Eay City with union men In h r cnglnc-room in place of the nonunion men who have operated the boat for sev eral months past. The new men were b-ought up from San Francisco by rail, arriving here ye3tcrday morning. They were In charge of Chief Engineer J. It Jackson. Mr. Jackson was chief engineer cn the steamer Columbia when that vessel was laid up by reapon of the strike. His first assistant is Edward Houghton, who his been the Elder's chief engineer. The other three assistants are new to the ser vice, the old men on the boat being inca pacitated by reason of having had their licenses revoked by Local United States Inspectors Edwards and Fuller for refus ing to remain at their posts of duty. Their cases are still before Supervising Inspector Berrnlncbam. to whom they wce ap pealed, and might have been decided some time -ago but for numerous postponements necessitated by the absence of an import ant witness. This witness is Walking Del egate Benson, who brought about the strike. Union engineers of San Francisco are in dignant at the part they were forced to play by Benfxsn. One of the new men on the Elder said Just before the steamer sailed last evening: "The whole strike was a bungling piece of business from start to finish. It would never have been called if we had known the real facts. There was no occasion for our men to go out, as they had absolutely no grievance. "When the case was properly set before our union. No. 35, at San Francisco, we saw how we had been roped in and withdrew our support from the Portland union in Its strike. President Uhler refused to sanction our strike on the O. R. & N. steamers, so, of course, we called it off and gave permission to association men to accept employment on the vessels." Union men will also take the places of nonunion engineers on the steamer Colum bia. The nonunion men will be sent back to their homes. The end of the trouble on the ocean steamers has made no change in the situ ation on the Willamette or the Colum bia. While the O. R. & N. Co. recognizes union men on its seagoing vessels, it does not on Its river boats. It is understood that the company's officials have no in tention of displacing its river engineers, as they say the men are competent and they will stand "by them. Charges of Incompe tency are freely made by the striking river engineers against the men recently employed on the ocean steamers, and they say that is the reason the company was so anxious to get rid of them. They pre dict that the same thing will happen on the river sen-ice. FIXED FOR WHEAT. County of Linlithgow Chartered to Load, tor the United Kingdom. The British ship County of Linlithgow, now -in quarantine at Astoria, was char tered yesterday by Balfour, Guthrie & Co. to load wheat here for the United King dom. Her rate is 17s 6d. The British ship Glenlul has been taken on the Sound to load there for Australia at 15s 9d- Another Sound charter reported yesterday was that of the British bark Muskoka, which has been at Seattle since the latter part of October. She will carry grain to South Africa, but the terms are not announced. Of the situation at San Franqlsco the Commercial News says: "The most important feature of the week has been the heavy arrivals of deep sea vessels, a fleet of 13 having dropped anchor in the bay Friday night and Satur day. Practically all of these vessels have gone to swell the disengaged fleet, which now numbers 45 available grain-carriers. Neatly all of them are British bottoms, and will consequently be unable to accept the prevailing low freight rates. The de mand for grain tonnage is light, about 10s Gd being the prevailing offering rate, while lis 3d Is generally asked. At these figures It Is doubtful If any of the British vessels will accept a charter; they will be forced either to lay up or offer in the lumber market. Lumber rates, particularly to Australia and South Africa, are firmly held, and the outlook for vessels is bright er than it has been for sorne time. Coast ing vessels are likewise m good demand, both sail and steam, and present rates are considerably better than those of a month ago." HELPLESS AXD SHORT OF FOOD. Ship St. David In a Bad Way Oft the Coast of Japan. SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 2. The Amer ican ship St. David is drifting about on the North Pacific dismasted and short of provisions. The Japanese liner America Maru, which has reached port from the Orient, spoke the ship off the Japanese coast December 17. The St. David is bound from Manila for Tacoma in ballast. Captain Going sent a boatload of provis ions to the St. David and took off one man, Harry John Johnson, an ordinary seaman, of Los Angeles. Johnson said that he had shipped at Manila. At that time Captain Harring ton had given up the command of the SL David to Captain Ryder, who went from liere to take command of the vessel after Captain Harrington left her, and at that tlmo Captain Ryder understood that the ship was well enough provisioned to make the voyage to Tacoma. In a few clays' they found there were practically no pro visions on board, and for days they had been living on salt beef, flour and tea. There was nothing else in the line of eat ables on board. One of the men died from Illness thought to have been brought on by starvation. , When 30 days out from Manila and only about S5 miles off the Japanese coast, a typhoon struck them. With the men all starving and the vessel in a bad way, eight davs passed before the Maru steamer hove in sight. With fresh provisions, Cap tain Ryder thought he might be able to get his vessel to Yokohama for repairs. DUTCH STEAMER OX FIRE. Dordrecht Pnta Into Bermuda in Distress. HAMILTON, Bermuda, Jan. 2.

In the current issue of the University Record, President Har per, of the University of, Chicago, defines his ideas of segregation. He says In part: "The policy proposes the continuation of the separation which has already taken place In chapel assembly, with possibly an extension in the matter of division lectures. It permits co-instruction in those courses offered to junior college students for which the registration is not sufficiently large to warrant division on an economical basis. For example, at the present time, one-third of all the courses offered to junior college students, roughly speaking, will be offered to men, one-third to women, and one-third open to both worten and men. "It would mean that, as the members in crease, the number of courses retained as co-lristructional on grounds of economy, would be diminished. The plan makes necessary the provision of separate class rooms and laboratories." Those unhappy persons who suffer from nervousness and dyspepsia should use Car ter's Little Nerve Pills, made expressly for this class. MORE PAY FOR 300 MEN MATERIAL. ADVANCE OS SOUTHERN PACIFIC'S OREGON" LINES. Engineers, HoUerniaKcm, Switchmen' and Yardiunster.t Benefited Fire men Will Probably Come Next. Noarly 300 railroad men on the Oregon lines of the Southern Pacific have re- celved a New Year's present in the shape of notice of an advance of pay. The loco motive engineers have signed up a new contract Under which they receive in creases ranging from 6 to 10 per cent. In a few instances the increase Is even above 10 per cent. More than XT men are affect ed by this order. About 30 bollermakers, whopo standard of pay has been 35 cents an hour, are here after to receive 3G1 cents. Eighteen switchmen employed in the four yards of the Southern Pacific's Ore gon lines Portland, Rosoburg, Ashland and Dunsmulr have received a material advance of pay, dating from January 1. Manager Koehler's circular announces MILLS, D. D. that these men, who have been receiving $75 a month, shall hereafter receive $52 SO to ?S5 25 por calendar month. The yardman ter in each of the four yards re ceives an advance from 5100 a month to 5110. All the firemen are trying to get a new scale, and It Is not doubted that they will be successful. They usually receive about 55 per cent of the pay of the engineers. Their advance will be of about the same proportion as that of the engine-drivers. There are about 250 firemen on the Oregon linos. These advances are understood to ex tend over the entire Southern Pacific sys tem west of El Paso, though the notice Issued here covers only the Oregon lines, which have their headquarters In Port land. Cn.VNGES FOR RAILROAD MEN. Rumors of Seattle and Spokane Several O. It. & N. Agents. There has for several days been a per sistent rumor to the effect that E. E. Ellis, general agent of the Harriman lines at Seattle, would resign and that George J. Mohler, now agent at Spokane, would suc- ENDEAVORING TO SETTLE THE STRIKE. Hornee G. Burt, President of the Union Pacific Railroad. NEW YORK. Jan. 2. Another confer ence was held this afternoon at the Union Pacific P-nilroad offices In this city with reference to a settlement of the differences botween the heads of the road and conditions of its employes. The conferees included President Burt, of the road; President James O'Connell, of the International Association of Ma chinists; Thomas T. Wilson, fourth vice-president of the International As sociation of Machinists; John McNeil and E. JE. Kennedy, representing the Boilermakers' International Union, and David O'Donneli, president of the Boil ermakers' Helpers' Union. Before going Into the conferences one of tho labor representatives expressed the opinion that a satisfactory agree ment would be reached. At thctlose of the conference It was raid that no actual agreement had been reached, though matters were tending toward an amicable settlement. An other conference will be held nexttTues day. ceed Mr. Ellis and A. MacCorquodale, now traveling freight agent of the O. R." & N., would become general agent at Spokane, dfiicials in authority say they know noth ing of any ouch proposed arrangement, however. This means they have no official knowledge of It. Mr. Ellis Is himself well fixed financially, and It Is pretty well known that he has not been satisfied with his position at Seattle since the railroads cut out the payment of commissions for ticket eales. These commissions ran up into the hun dreds of dollars every month In the larger cities of the Pacific Northwest. When they were discontinued the regular salary 160ked like 30 cents. Ellis has substantial private Interests in Seattle, and it is be lieved that he Is to leave the railroad busl- xxees to attend to them. Just now be Is on a month's leave of absence In the East taking his annual vacation. It la said. Agent H. C. Bowers, at Baker City, has resigned to go into private business. Homer Halleck will be transferred from Pendleton to Baker City, and G. W. Louns bury will go from Astoria to Pendleton. At Wardner Agent G. L. Thompson has re signed and ho will be succeeded by T. J. Klnnalrd. of Farmlngton. All these are officially admitted except those hanging upon the retirement of Mr. Ellla. Nevr Railroad In Louisiana. NEW ORLEANS. La., Jan. 2.

The first shovelful of earth on the Denver, North western & Pacific Railway was turned this morning by a construction gang of graders, at a point eight miles from Mar shall and opposite South Boulder Creek Canyon. Thero was no ceremony, but at 7:15 o'clock the contractors, Orman & Crook, had 200 men begin work. Governor Orman said: "As rapidly as possible we will place 3000 or 4000 men at work, and there will be no dclay3." For Trial in February. ST. PAUL, Minn., Jan. 2. A stipulation was filed In the United States Circuit Court today setting the Federal suit against the Northern Securities Company for trial during the February term of court. Dividend on New Rock Island. NEW- YORK, Jan. 2. The directors of the new Rock Island Company today de clared a quarterly dividend of 1 per cent on the preferred stock. HAVE RAISED THE MONEY Methodists Break AH Records for Subscriptions. In a little less than 32 months the Meth odist church In this country has raised by voluntary contribution more than 520,000.000, and the announcement of this fact by Dr. E. M. Mills In Springfield, Macs., the day before yesterday,. has sent a wave of enthusiasm among the Meth odists all the way to the Pacific Coast. Oregon as a state, and Portland as a city, both grave more than a pro rata assess mnnt would have reaulred of them, and they helped to establish this world's record in church enterprise. Both state and city, too, will receive a large benefit. Dr. Mills, who had charge of the raising tof the fund, has been officially known a3 secretary of the Twentieth Century Thank Offcrlng. which was given Its name and authority in January, 1000. Dr. C. H. Payne suggested it in an open letter to the bishops publ!ehed In the Christian Ad vocate of June 23, 1S9S. in which he told of the movement started In England by R. W. Perks, a member of Parliament, to ralre a fund of 1,000.000 guineas. "Let us double the sum nnd make It $10,000,000," wrote Dr. Payne. The bishops deliberated long over the matter, but their final action was Impressive. "Let us double the amount suggested by Mr. Payne," they said, "and make It J20.000,000." The general conference which met In Chicago In May, 1900, gave prompt ap proval to the idea, and appointed a special commission to take full charge of the venture. This Included Blshopa J. . M. Thoburn, Isaac W. Joyce and S. H. ' Pye, and one member from each of the 14 conference districts The original Oregon representative was Rev. G. M. Booth, of The Dalles, but the local district was given a double repre sentation when Dr. H. J. Talbott came here to take the pastorate of the Flut Methodist Church of Portland. It was admittedly a formidable under taking, but the Methodists throughout the country responded at once to the call upon them. It meant a total assessment of $7 upon caqh member of the church a tax which seemed almost prohibitive at the start. But the commission took up the work In a spirit of the calmest confidence. nnd made a simple appeal direct to the people to celebrate the opening of the 20th century by so magnificent an offering. The appeal said simply that the confer ence had "determined to call on the church for a special and suitable expres sion of its gratitude to the God of our redemption," as evinced by "such pe cunlary gifts as would be the visible tokens of our gratitude, and also the means of a larger and a better service in the future." The church of the country was so thor oughly organized and brought into active touch with the work that not a single member was left out, and for nearly 32 months the campaign went on. Dr. Mills made three tours of the entire country. appearing twice in Portland, and always he said: "On December 31, 1902, I am golnsr to arise in my pulpit in my church in Spring field, Mass., and announce through my own congregation to the world that we have raised this $20,000,000. In that I have full faith." The time passed and two days ago the wirc3 flashed the newo throughout the world that Dr. Mills to use a wholly non sectarian expression had made good. In all the mighty effort had resulted In con tributions of $20.SSO,000, apportioned as fol lows: $9,000,000 raised on church debts; $S,150 000 for Methodist colleges and schools: $2,750,000 for various charltlos; JGOO.OOO for the permanent fund for the conference claimants, and a little over $3S0,000 to build churches in destitute com munities. Even the most sanguine of those, who had worked to accomplish this splendid result were suprised when the new3 of their success reached them. Bishop Cranes ton was not at his home in Portland when the announcement was made, but It reached Dr. Albert N. Fisher, the editor of the Pacific Christian Advocate, and ull the local pastors. Dr. Fisher said yester day: "It la a magnificent climax to a mag nificent effort. It reaches the high-water mark In church work, not only in the total amount tf money raised, but In the pro rata amount for church members. Tho prevlou-s records, which have just been complied, show that the British Wes leyans, In raising $6,000,000, asked $6.50 per member; the Irish Methodists, in raising $503,000. asked $5; the United Free Church of England, in raising $500,000, asked $5; the Australian Methodists. In raising $900. 000. asked $5; the Canadian Methodists, In raising $1,000,000, asked S3; and the South ern Methodists, in raising $1,500,000. asked $1.04. Our commissioners raised over $20. 000.000, and received an average per mem ber of over $7. 'Oregon has contributed more than her share, as she always docs. The exact total Is not at hand, but it will reach close to $73,000. Grace Church, In this city, alone raised $25,000, and the churchea throughout the state responded most gen erously. Some of the returns arc not yet In. but I know that Salem's total will be $15,000. contributed to help the Willam ette University. Other cities' have not yet reported, Albany's collection will be made next Sunday. "Our district, too, will derive much ben efit. Thefdebt of $35,000 on Willamette TJnlverslty'wlll be raised. Dr. J. H. Cole man, president of the university, was In nty office last Wednesday and he said he was sure the institution would be clear of all Incumbrances early In the new year. There is no one general fund, you know. We will contribute according to our means to the fund for superannuated ministers, to the Church Extension Society of Phila delphia, and to the Women's Foreign Mis sionary Society, but the bulk of the money will be expended where It was raised. And this is as it should be." Dr. Fisher was a member of the general conference at Chicago" in May, 1900, when the project was launched, and he was asked yesterday If at that time the church leaders regarded its success as at all probable. He smiled quizzically and replied; "Well, we all made speeches talking about how It was best to aim high, and we were all very enthusiastic, but er I don't know that I'd like to answer your question exactly. We didn't call the roll to find out who was weak-kneed about It, and so. In fact. I couldn't give you exact figures. But I can tell you one thing, nnd it Is this: From the very first there was no doubt In the mind and heart of Dr. Mills. He just said this money was going to be raised, and he never faltered' from the beginning to the end." LEMON JUICE FAILS. Too Slow in Tlioronghlr Killing GerniK of Typhoid. NEW YORK, Jan. 2. Dr. W. H. Pr.k. bacteriologist of the Department of Health, has made several experiments to determine the value of lemon Juice in de stroying typhoid bacilli, regarding which much has been published recently. Sev eral microscopical examinations of cul tures of typhoid bacilli which had been subjected to the action of the lemon Juice showed that, although the acid killed tho micro organisms. It required too much acid and too much time for the chemical action to take place to render lemon juice as an agent practicable. Dr. Park's negative oplnon In regard to the efficacy of the acid as a typhoid prophylactic was corroborated, for after the bacilli had been acted upon by a five per cent solution of the acid for 30 min utes. It was found that all of them had not been destroyed. Dr. Park, when questioned regarding the experiments, said: "My suspicions were confirmed by the tests. It Is far safer to boll the water or filter It properly than to trust to lemon juice to destroy any typhoid bacilli that may be in It. Of course, the statement that the acid would destroy any tyohold germs that might be contained In oysters by sprinkling It on the outside is ridiculous." Oregon City Brevitien. OREGON CITY.

There is no disease so common In "the United States as catarrh becauw it ap pears In so many forms and attacks so many different organs. It Is a common mistake to suppose that catarrh Is confined to the nose and throat. ' Any Inflammation of the raucous mem brane, wherever located, accompanied by abnormal secretions. Is catarrh. Catarrh of stomach or bladder, or Intestines Is nearly as common as nasal catarrh and much more serious although It Is true that stomach catarrh and catarrh of other In ternal organs Is the result of neglected nasal catarrh. A new remedy has recently appeared which, so far as tested, seems' to be re markably effective In promptly curing catarrh, wherever located. The prepara tion is soia oy aruggists generally under name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and In addition to being very palatable and con venient, posseses extraordinary .merit, in many cases giving lmmeaiate relief from the coushlng. hawking and constant clear ing of the throat and head, those symp toms with which everyone 13 familiar who has ever suffered from colds In the head and throat. Catarrh Is simply a continuation of these symptoms until the trouble becomes chronic and grows gradually won?e from year to year. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are composed of Bloodroot, red gum and similar anti septics and catarrh specifics, from which it will be seen that no secret Is made of the Ingredients and also that no mineral poisons are used, as Is the -case with many well-known catarrh medicines. For catarrh of the nose, throat, bron chial tubes, for catarrh of stomach. In testines or bladder no preparation is so safe and gives such rapid and permanent resutls as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
