flent of the Garment Workers' strike
occurred today when 000 or 600 strik

expected to receive the money. When
told they could not enter, they forced
their way Into the place, until stair
ways, corridors and tha floors ware
packed to suffocation.
Few spoke English, which added
greatly to tha work of the police. The
latter tried to clear the place by peace
able means, but when a woman's cries
were heard, they drew their clubs and
drove the mob Into the street. This
action probably prevented a panlo.

ers, one by one. were called from the
street to the door of the building, where
they were paid. From l to 19 was
given each one, according to the num
ber of persons dependent on htm. Tha

TWO U'REN BILLS

Monmouth Is Winner;
Others Defeated.

Oregon Rejects Prohibition by
Vote Close to 16,000.
OFFICIAL GAZETTE LOSES
Multnomah's Majority of 6500 for
Thla Measure Is Overcome by
Results in Outside Coun
tiesAll Tax Bills Lost.
Belated election returns yesterday in
dicate conclusively the defeat of two of
the TTBen measures, and the probable
defeat of the other two. The returns
also revealed that the rural districts
have not reduced the majority against
the prohibition amendment, but rather
the negative vote is rolling up with each
successive report. On a count of 72,000
votes, or approximately three-fourths of
the total cast, the prohibition amend
ment la defeated by 13,600. The amend
ment bae been defeated by probably
more than 16,000.
The two People's Power league, or
U'Ren measures, certainly defeated, are
the official gazette bill and. proportional
representation. The two in doubt are
the bill providing for primary election of
delegates to National conventions and
the constitutional amendment providing
for verdicts by three-fourths of the jury
In civil cases.
State Disapproves Measure.
Although Multnomah County gave
the official, gazette bill a majority of
more than 6500, the other portions of
the state generally disapproved of the
measure until on a count of about 64,
000 votes the Multnomah majority has
and a majority against
the amendment of 4898 reoorded. The
total majority against the measure, it
Is Indicated by this vote, will exceed
snnn frnnortlonal representation has
been defeated by approximately 4000,
If the present ratio is muiniaineai m
the balance of the canvass.
On .the National delegate primary bill
a count of about 66,000 votes gives a
majority of 627 In favor of the bill.
Multnomah County has given the bill
a, majority In excess of 1300, but the
other portions of the state show a
close vote, with a tendency toward dis
approval of the measure. If the vote
now uncounted Is of the same char
acter, the bill Is defeated by a small
margin.
The Jury amendment on a count of
6S.000 votes has a favorable majority
of 1604, but It Is Indicated that the un
reported vote will out down this ma
jority, and may possibly defeat the
amendment. ,
Only One Normal Wins.

ERA OF CHEAPER
. FOOD SOON DUE
ARMOUR PREDICTS EARLY DE
CLINE OP PRICES.
Hops Two Pounds Heavier Would
Slake Great Difference In To
tal, Declares Packer.
KANSAS CITT, Nov. 11. Charles W.
Armour, head of the Armour Interests
here, said today that he believed food
prices had reached their climax and
were now on the down grade.
"General food prices are working to
ward a lower basis," he said. "The
cereals are getting down. ' People are
going to take advantage of lower prices
and that will have a tendency to re
lieve the stringency in meat prices, es
pecially pork.
Just hour soon the lower prices are
to come, Mr. Armour said he did not
know.
"But wo welcome the time," he said,
"for no dealer likes to sell stuff at such
high prices as pork has been bringing
for several weeks. But when the pack
er has to pay 8. 9, 10 and 11 cents for
live hogs, what has he to say about
prices?"
Mr. Armour said that If the farmers
would raise better hogs the pork prob
lem in this country would soon be
solved. Suppose, he argued, that two
pounds extra weight were put on every
hog sent to the markets. The aggre
gate Increase in weight would be enor
mous. "If the farmers were to work harder
for healthy hogs, much less pork would
be condemned by the United States In
spectors," he said.
