and . crnts an hour for ail overtime.
Thrt old schedule nf 40 cents and AO cents
will remain in effect until June 1. The
nvn will return to work this morning.
The settlement of the difficulty between
th exrmtterj and tlie dockworkers wea
rffectcd yesterday when both sides made
comssions of greater or less importance.
The nwcting whs hold in the office of
Kerr, GifTorri A- Co.. and lasted about an
hour. The employers agreed to allow the
old tfJo until June 1 and the men ai
nwd thn ."VWent overtime rate instead
ot' the cents, as demanded.
Kor three w.'eks there has been an un
settled condition on the docks. The grain
handlers w-re working under a contract
and the wages stood at 40 cents an hour
Jor stmight time and 6ft cents an hour
for all overtime. This contract expired
April 1 and the workers desired a renewal.
Kxportrs refused. Conditions on Puget
Suund. where the dockworkers receive 30
cenis an hour and 40 cents for overtime,
were cited, but the men held out for a
renewal of the old contract. At a meet
ing between exporters and men, propo
sitions were offered by each. The dock
workers demanded 35 cents sn hour and
cpnts for overtime. The shippers
offered 35 cents an hour and 45 cents for
overtime. At the end of the week the
exporters went up 2' cents on overtime.
This the men would not accept, and they
quit work, pending a settlement of the
difficulties.
Tt is stated on good authority that the
matter would have been settled some time
nno had it not been for a number of
members of the CJrainhandlers' Union,
who are single men, have no homes and
who desired a continuation of the diffi
culties in order to permit them to go
fishing.
The wiieat ships in port, loading of
which has been delayed by the action of
the gralnhandlers. will begin work Im
mediately. The first one will be the
Alice Marie, which has a part cargo on
board. She will be finished and sent to
Astoria within a day or so. The Alice
Marie should have been out of the way
last week, but the strike of the dock
workers prevented. Four or five of the
vessels will get away by the end of the
month.

WAGE QUESTION
Mem1er of Grainliandlers I n ion
(ives His Ideas.
PORTLAND. April 20. (To the' Kdi
tor.) I deem It my duty to give my rea
sons for recommending a reduction of
wages at this time. The wages paid on
the Sound for the same class ofVwork is
about 'JO per cent less than here; there
Is not that much difference in the cost of
living. There is a difference to this ex
tent, that corporations of large interests
both here nnd on the Sound are willing
to grant 5 cents per hour more in Port
land than on the Sound, acknowledging
the fart that the cost of living is that
much greater here. The question arises,
are we paid too much in Portland for
our labor or are the men on the Sound
paid too little?
To begin with, the grain season lasts
only about seven months, and a man
handling grain, in Portland receives 40c
per hour for a nine-hour day. and time
and a half for overtime, which very sel
dom occurs, and which is not relished
by the employe, because after nine hours
constantly handling sacks of wheat where
muscle and activity are the only neces
sary requirements, he is willing and anx
ious to go home and rest: which any
t honorable man will admit he Is entitled
to. For his nine hours work he re
reives $.1.60. or Sl.60 for his week's pay,
which figures out about ff90 per month.
The season lasts about seven months, so
you see the steadily employed grain
handler averages about $630 per seaeon.
He is adrift for tne remaining five months
and is very fortunate if he makes $150 in
that time, after which he usually goes
hack to handling grain again.
So you see he don't make $900 for his
year's work. Will any fair-minded man
admit he is paid too much wages? Grain
handlers here are all good American
citizens and good Portland citizens also.
The majority of them are married men
nnd own their homes, or partly so. They
huve families and take the same pride In
them that fmy other good citizen does
and are desirous of giving them an edu
cation that will enable them to stand
the same chances for success aa our
neighbor's children.
Is $S00 per year sufficient? I say no.
I say It is not enough and that the men
on the Sound are working too cheap, and
cheap labor means degraded citizenship,
which we must all endeavor to avoid.
Again. Portland has a natural advan
tage which neither of the Sound cities
enjoy it is situated near the confluence
of two fresh-wnter rivers emptying into
the Pacific Ocean, and which drain the
agricultural land of three of our Western-
States. The products from this ter
ritory flow down these two fresh-water
rivers or slide on the rails to Portland.
a city which all seafaring men admit Is
more beneficial to a ship after a long
voyage in salt water than the expense
incurred by placing it in the drydock to
be cleaned and painted, should it arrive
in a salt-water port. That is another
reason why exporters can afford to pay
more wages and make more profits for
themselves here than on the Sound. The
grainhandlers and all other unions of our
city believe in the theory of the employes
of any particular industry who meet with
prosperity, to share In the prosperity of
said industry, aud if It should moet with
adversity we arc also willing to take our
share, but at the present time we see no
reason why the exporters are handing us
a pill which was not honestly prescribed.
However, we have concluded to swal
low it for a time, so as to avoid a con
flict, which no doubt would retard busi
ness and the prosperity of our city dur
ing Its existence. We will place our case
before a jury composed of the. entire
public Interested and ask them to render
a decision, so that the workingmen of our
city may know whether they are gomg
to lower the standard of living of ..our
craft or proclaim we are entitled to a
wage which will enable us to live and
educate our children as true and free
Americans. J. HURLEY,
Member of Executive Committee of the
Crainhandlers' t'nion.
Eureka Reaches Portland.
The steamer Eureka, of the North Pa-
ciflc Steamship Company, reached Fort

CAPTAIN GEEK. HAS RESIGNED
Master of J. X. Teal Will Leave
Open River Company.
Captain Archibald Gecr. master of the
steamer J. N. Teal, has resigned com
mand of that craft and will leave the
vessel as soon as a successor has been
appointed. The action of Captain Geer
is a surprise to his many friends. Cap
tain Geer left the service of the Regulator

River Company when the old steamer
Teal was under construction. He was
master of the steamer at the time she
was burned, on the morning of October
23, of last year.
The J. N. Teal started on the Summer
schedule yesterday morn inn.- She left
the Oak-street dock at i o'clock and had
on board about 100 tons of freight. At

tity of lumber for Stevenson. The Teal
will operate during the season in con
nection with the steamer Relief, on the

LAWYERS ARGUE
OVER OBJECTION
Delay Trial of Men Charged
With Fraudulent Use .
. of Mails.
WILL RESUME CASE TODAY
Arguments Made on Whether Pur
chase or Bogus Money, After
ward Passed as Good,
Is a Crime.
Ijittle progress had teen made yes
tprdav in the Federal Court in the trial
of Edward Sheehan. Frank Caviness, J.
'. Savior and M. J. Iorsey, chanted
with using the mails fraudulently,
when Judge Wolverton consented to an
adjournment of court until 10 o'clock
today, to enable counsel to submit
authorities in the argument of an ob
jection urged by John F. Logan, attor
ney for Sheehan, to the introduction of
certain testimony by United States At
torney McCourt, for the Government.
Logan questioned the right of the
prosecution to offer as testimony corre
spondence that passed between some
of the defendants and the Chicago
curio house from which the spurious
banknotes were procured and after
ward distributed in this community.
Logan maintained that the transaction
between the defendants on trial and
the curio dealer in Chicago was entire
ly regular, while District Attorney Mc
Court contended that the correspond
ence was vital to the Government's
ease, as proving a connecting link in
the conspiracy of the defendants to de
fraud the public by passing the spuri
ous money. Judge Wolverton this
morning will hear further argument
on the objection before deciding the
interesting legal point that hae been
raised.
R. H. Wells was indicted with the
four defendants now on trial. but
pleaded guilty some time ago, and will
be the principal witness for the Gov
ernment against his alleged confeder
ates. It is charged against the accused
that they bought a monSy order at the
Portland Postoffice and enclosed it in
a letter through the mails to Stevens &
Company, of Chicago, for a quantity of
the worthless banknotes, which were
afterward delivered through the mails
to members of the gang in Portland,
under the fictitious name of Conncrs.
Witnesses for the Government are
prepared to testify that these bogus
notes were afterward passed in Port
land and vicinity.
Postal Clerk a Witness.
One of the first witnesses called by
the Government yesterday was Lincoln
Smith, clerk in the money-order de
partment of the local Postoffice, by
whom jthe prosecution expected to
prove the purchase by members of the
gang of a money order, payable to
Stevens & Company, of Chicago. Be
sides, the Government is in possession
of the letter that accompanied" the
money-order, and in which the number
and denomination of the desired bank
notes were indicated. When this evi
dence was offered, Attorney Logan ob
jected vigorously. He insisted that it
was not alleged that Stevens & Com
pany had been defrauded, and for that
reason any correspondence that passed
between the defendants and that firm
was not admissible in the case on trial.
District Attorney McCourt contended
that the evidence was both relevant
and material, as tending to prove a
transaction necessary to the perpetra
tion of the fraud; that the defendants
had in mind the passing of the bogus
currency on the public, and by their
correspondence with Stevens & Com
pany ordered the goods with that pur
pose in view, and for that reason used
the mails fraudulently. The Govern
ment's prosecutor made the further
point -that the fraudulent passing of
theT banknotes could not be effected
until the worthless currency had been
obtained, and maintained that the de
fendants knew this and ordered the
paper money for the purpose of pass
ing it and defrauding the public.
Will Consult Authorities.
Recognizing the importance of the
objection and a decision on the ques
tion. Judge Wolverton consented to the
suggestion of Mr. McCourt and ad
journed court until this morning, when
authorities will be presented by oppos
ing counsel in support of their respec
tive contentions. Should the objection
of Attorney Logan be sustained, the
c-se of the Government will be weak

BREAKS UP HAPPY HOME
Mother's Unfaithfulness Eventually
Sends Son to Antipodes.
.CLIFFS, Wash., April 20. (Special. )
John A. Cress, a ranchman, living near
the Columbia River, a few miles east of
Cliffs, received a message last week
from Washington, D. C. that his son,
Lloyd, was dead in the Philippines, and
asking the disposition of the body.
Lloyd Cress has had rather a sad
career. His parents were married near
Cedar Rapids, la., more than 20 years
ago. In 18S8 they cam to Klickitat
County. About eight years ago they
separated. The husband, a stockman,
was away from home a great deal, and
on coming In from the mountain range
in and around the Mount Adams coun
try discovered finally that another man
was winning his wife's love. For sev
eral months he tried to persuade her
to throw aside the rival, but was un
successful. Finally It was mutually
agreed to separate, the mother taking
the two girls and the father the two
boys and dividing the property equal
ly. In time the mother applied for a
divorce, got it without opposition and
later on married the man that broke
up the home.
Lloyd and his brother were placed
in good homes and the father had
them schooled. At 16 Lloyd was larger
than his father, and they were soon
partners in the stock business, and
were inseparable.
A year ago the father told his boys
he was going to marry ag'aln. This
they resented, saying they preferred
to live independently. Finally Lloyd
became restless and told his father h
was going away. Suddenly all com
munication stopped, but the message
just received Indicates that he joined
Company F, Fourteenth Regiment,
Oregon Volunteers, and sailed for Ma
nila. The body will be shipped to
Centerville, Wash.
WILLING TO STOP SERVICE
Trolley Company Says It Loses
Money on Freight-Cars,
B. S. Josselyn, president of tne. Port
land Railway, Light & Power Com
pany, has sent the following letter to
Mayor Lane: ,
In answer to your recent letter to me as
president of the Portland General Electric
Company, and aeklns if that company is
operating freighlcars over its lines of street
railway. I have to say:
TMat the Portland General Electric Com
pany has no lines of street railway or of
railway in the City of Portland-, nor has it
ever owned or operated any such lints
The Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company and tb Portland Railway Com
pany, of which I am the president, do operate
freightcars over their respective lines. Al
most all such freigrhtears are run or operated
under franchises authorizing the same.
In some instances freightcars are run over
lines of railway, the franchises of which do
not mention the operation of freightcars, al
though there is no prohibition nor provisions
prohibiting the operation of freightcars. I
refer especially to ordinances of the City
of Portland 13,089 and 13,177. Such freight
cars are run at a lofw to the company, ajid
merely to accommodate suburban residents.
The use of such freightcars has been, at
least, tacitly acquiesced In by the City of
Fortland. The company operating these cars
prefers not to do so. It ham done so wholly
as a matter of accommodation.
If the City of Portland desires that the
running of these freightcars which are run
wholly as a. matter of accommodation to
suburban residents, as hereinbefore set forth,
should cease, the company operating them
is willing to discontinue running them on
twing so informed by the proper authorities
of the City, although it will work a hardship
on such suburban residents.

"I scaled like a fish when I began

J. Weitner, of Corfnellsville, Pa. "I had
doctored for Eczema with two doctors
for more than a month and got worse
all the time. After using only throe
bottles of D. D. D. I can truthfully say
I am cured."
Germ scales and a crustlike skin,
surrounding the unsightly sores, o,re
characteristic of Eczema and similar
skin diseases. According to the best
medical opinion. these scales are
caused by bacilli feeding upon and
consuming the weaker parts of the
cutielR.
When these scales begin to fall
away, it is a sign the bacilli have been
exterminated and tha t new healthy
skin is being formed beneath. Nature
takes care of this form of cure, but
sometime the Kczema scales multiply
faster than nature can remove them.
To assist Nature, use a mild oil of
wintergreen, properlv compounded as
in D. D. D. Prescription.
Just a few drops of t. D. D. Pre
scription gives instant relief from that
awful burning Itch. As soon as this
potent soothing liquid is applied to
the skin, the itch is gone, soon the
sores dry up and the new smooth white
skin replaces the scales which had
formed.

pills and tonics Is a physician,
employing the old methods that

may stimulate temporarily, but
the ultimate result will be disap

manently because I have ascer
tained the true nature of the dis
order. In more than 90 per cnt
