Prospects are brighter for a settlement
of the water-front strike by arbitration
than at any time for the past two days.
Concessions have been made by both
sides, and It may ri that today the way
will be opened for arbitration.
After three conferences between Russell
E. Sewall, attorney for the striking grain
handlers, and a committee of exporters
headed by W. J. Burns, matters appear
more favorable. During the conferences
progress has been made toward meeting
on a common ground where arbitration
could come in. and Mr. Sewall was hope
ful last night of a successful conclusion of
the negotiations.
Although some concessions have been
agreed to by the exporters, they stick at
full recognition of the union. They are
willing that all the men working on the
tfocks shall be unionized with the excep
tion of the weighers and samplers. This
exception is held by the gralnhandlers to
be a minor one that the exporters use as
a peg to hang an objection on, as they
assort weighers and samplers have in
times past been union men, joining the
grajnhandlers organization of their own
a.-v-nrd.
The exporters say they are ready to re
move the police from the docks If they
can maintain the point of partial union
recognition. Some of the exporters are
eaid to stick out for an open shop, but
sentiment on this point Is by no means
unanimous among the shippers, and it is
hoped by representatives of the union that
the exporters will agree to complete rec
ognition. On the other hand, it is said the export
ers have made the proposition that they
will increase the wages paid gralnhan
dlers if the men will waive the demand
lor a union shop. But there is a persist
ent refusal on the part of the union to
egree to this condition, and it is general
ly agreed that, unless the exporters are
willing to give more ground, the nego
tiations now going on to arrange a basis
for arbitration will fail.
Two conferences were held yesterday
between the exporters' committee and the
pralnhandlers" attorney. In the morning
a lengthy discussion occurred In which
each side in the controversy stated its po
sition, and the meeting adjourned until
evening to give Attorney Sewall time to
discuss the matter with his clients. After
rpendlng ume time with Business Agent
Me! by and other strikers. Attorney Sewall
returned to the exporters shortly before
dinner
It was thought that, as a result of this
conference, the end of the Ftrike trouble
might be in eight, and the union pre
pared to hold a special session last night
to vote on the proposition resulting from
the second conference. But the exporters
were not ready to agree to the terms de
sired by the gralnhandlers. and anoMer
session was set for this morning.
The question to be determined by arbi
tration, if the preliminaries to arbitration
can be arranged, is the wage matter, pure
and simple. T'nion men insist that, with
an open shop maintained on the docks,
they cannot arbitrate, and. until there is
full union recognition, they will not agree
to place the wace matter, which was the
original issue, in the hands of referees.
.Labor Commissioner Hoff. of Salem,
came to Portland yesterday morning to
lender his services toward a settlement of
the strike. Ho is hopeful that arbitration
will adjust the unfortunate situation, and
held n conference with both union mem
bers nd exporters. He said he does not
expect to bo able to bring about arbitra
tion, and will not try, as he nays he con
siders the Mayor Is in a very favorable
position to accomplish this However. If
there is anything he can do to help mat
ters along Mr Hoff is willing to do it.
He is interested jn the sltuarion. and is in
tent on watching the outcome. Mr. Hoff
"I have always believed in arbitration
as a remedy for labor troubles, and it
seems to me there is only one thing to
leave to arbitration, and that is the wage
question, which was the first cause of the
trouble Of course, the difficulty is in
adjusting the preliminaries to arbitra
tion, but 1 believe there is a common
ground upon whtoh the two factions can
meet."
The danger of the strike spreading to
the entire Water Front Federation, and
then widening so it will take in the build
ing trades unions. Is freely discussed. It
is the general opinion aniens union men
that there is danger of a widespread strike.
From ot her sources, a prob;ib!e lockout
by employers of labor Is predicted The
Citizens' Alliance is credited with having
offered its help to the exporters, and this
will make the situation more difficult to
set rle. if true OriVers of the Citizens
Alliance, rer'u.-e to either confirm or deny
the report.

THEY MAY REFUSE
TO ACCEPT WHEAT
Exporters Likely to Order
Grain Sent to Puget Sound
Instead of Portland.
DEPENDS ON ARBITRATION
Success of Present Xegotlatlons
Means Continuance of Portland's
Supremacy as Exporting Port.
Twelve Ships Tied tp.
The water-front strike situation remains
In statu quo, pending the result of the
efforts toward settling the gralnhandlers'
dispute with the exporters by means of
arbitration.
Xo new moves have been made by the
longshoremen, and none will be made
until It is definitely known whether the
arbitration proceedings fall through or
not. for they claim to have the situation
well in hand, and are not anxious to cause
any more trouble thn Is necessary.-
Little work is being done along the
front. The gangs employed on the docks
are not any too large, and the men em
ployed in stowing away cargo are not in
evidence to any great extent. So scarce
are hands that work has been discon
tinued on several of the grain ships, no
effort having been made to replace the
strikers with nonunion men.
Should the situation not adjust itself
very shortly. It is more than probable that
the exporters will follow the lead of Kerr,
Gifford & Company and order some of
their vesels to Puget Sound, which threat
was Issued several days ago, at which
time the firm mentioned sent the steamers
Strathflllan and Netherlands to Tacoma,
instead of loading them in this city.
According to the exporters, they have
placed an order in effect that works al
most the same as the recent embargo
placed on wheat shipments by the Har
rlman railway lines, for they have discon
tinued bringing in wheat in any large
quantities pending the outcome of the
present negotiations. This order is not a
permanent one, neither does it divert the
shipments to the Sound, but this is liable
to be ordered at any time. According to
warehousemen. They are merely holding
the wheat in the upper country until the
local situatiorTiassumes a more favorable
aspect.
The grain business only is affected, al
though it is not improbable that the lum
ber trade may be tied up in the event
that peace negotiations come to naught.
The big card the unions have up their
sleeve seems to be the Building Trades
Council, which comprises about 2500 men,
employed In all manner of construction
work in the city where cement work Is in
use. At present, there are four cement
ships in the harbor, which are unable to
discharge cargo, and, no doubt, an effort
will shortly be made to unload them by
means of nonunion labor. Should this be
attempted, it is believed that a boycott
against all buildings handling materials
from these vessels will be declared by
the Federated Trades Council, which will
mean a walkout of the men affiliated with
the Building Trades Council and result in
the tying up of work on the numerous
buildings now being erected In this city.
The four cement vessels Genevieve Mo
linos. La Tour d'Auvergne. Jacobsen and
Inverness-shire remained Idle yesterday,
and no. effort was made to discharge
them.
TV. J. Burns, publicity agent of the Ex
porters' Association, stated: "The worst
feature of the present situation is that
embraced in the shipping of wheat from
the Inland country. Should we desist in
taking the up-country farmer's wheat, it
will cause him to sell to Puget Sound
dealers, and once his trade is lost it will
be a hard task to regain it. for one dis
appointment means more to a farmer than
it usually does to a metropolitan business
man. We have options on a large quan
tity of wheat In Eastern Oregon and
"Washington, and Eome of this we may let
go or order delivered to the Sound. In
addition to our grain and cement ships
tied up. the British ship Galgate. which
has been loading lumber for Valparaiso
during the past six weeks, is tied up, and
there is no telling when she will be able
to get away."
Two more vessels in addition to the 13
now affected by the strike are on the way
up from Astoria. They are the French
ship Sully, from Tacoma In ballast, and
the British ship Glenalvon. the latter hav
ing a general cargo and the former being
In ballast.
FRENCH BARK STJLLY FIXED
Vessel Without Clearance Papers or
Bills of Health Penalized. '
ASTORIA. Or . Oct. 19. (Special.) The
French bark Sully, which arrived a few
days ago from Yokohama, via Victoria,
was fined J550O this afternoon by Collector
of Customs Carnahan. The fine was on
two counts SoOX for failure to bring con
sular bills of health, and $50 for failure
to bring clearance papers from either Vic
toria or Yokohama.
It appears the bark went from Japan
to Victoria for orders, but neglected to
enter at the British Columbia port. Cap
tain Rio says he left the consular bills of
health, which he secured In Japan, with
the American Consul at Victoria, but what
became of the clearance papers is not
stated. The bark left up the river for
Portland this morning.

The Portland fc Asiatic Steamship Com
pany's liner Nicomedla arrived up last
evening and moored at Montgomery dock.
She brings a large cargo of general mer
chandise from Japan and China, most of
which is consigned! to Eastern ports.
Captain TVagemanri reports exceedingly
rough weather Just after leaving the Jap

RIVER PROVES NAVIGABLE.
Chehalis Channel Deepening as Re
sult of Removal of Snags.
MOXTESAXO. "Wash.. Oct. 19 (Spe
cial.) County Surveyor H. S. Shovey has
just completed a survey and soundings
of the Chehalis River from this city to
a point several miles down the stream.
1 the object being to ascertain the actual
depth of water on the principal bars. The
result shows that the channel is rapidly
deepening in consequence of the recent
systematic removal of snags and other
obstructions, which work was done by
J. W. Hall, of this city, under the super
vision of United States Engineer Carpenter-
The shoalest point in the river was on
the Wynooche bar, and a depth of 14H
feet at mean low tide was shown at that
particular point, while the general aver
age on all the other bars was over 30
feet, being fully eight feet more than on
Cow Point, below Aberdeen, in Upper
Gray s Harbor. ,
It is now known that any vessel which
can come ud the harbor to Aberdeen can
also easily ascend the Chehalis River to
Montesano, if pilots from this port are
put in command.
The Montesano Chamber of Commerce
is now arranging for an 'official survey
of the Chehalis River, and when the work
is completed. Major Chittenden. Chief of
the United States Engineer Corps, has
given his assurance that it will be ap
proved and sent to the Geodetic Coast
Survey Department and Incorporated In
all official navigation charts.
Surveyor Shovey, who has made this
preliminary survey, was formerly a mem
ber of the United States Engineer Corps,
with the rank of captain.
SHIP BATTLES WITH ICE.
Glenalvon Arrives at Astoria After
Voyage Full of Perils.
ASTORIA. Or.. Oct. 19 (Special.) The
British ship Glenalvon, which arrived in
last evening from Xewcastle-on-Tyne, was
released from quarantine today. Captain
W. J. King, master of the vessel, reports
an uneventful ,trip of 150 days, excepting
that he encountered very severe weather
off Cape Horn. He was 20 days in that
vicinity, and, after rounding the Horn
safely once, he was driven back and
rounded the Cape the second time 14 days
later. At one time he seriously contem
plated turning back and coming via Aus
tralia, as 14 members of his crew were
laid up with severe frost bites. The ves
sel was covered with Ice, and it was prac
tically impossible to handle her with the
short crew.
Later, however, the gale subsided, and
he was able to proceed on his passage.
On this side of the Horn passably good
weather was encountered, and a fair run
was made up the Coast. Captain King did
not strike 'the storm that recently has
been raging off the Oregon coast, but met
very hvy seae. and, on account of the
rough bar, had been forced to remain off
the mouth of the Columbia since Wednes
day morniqg.
He says that on approaching the river
he saw a large 6teamer heading out to
sea and north, but did not learn her name
and at the time thought she had come
out of 'the Columbia. The Glenalvon
brings a genera! cargo for Portland.
