SHIPOWNERS SIGN
PLEDGE TO FIGHT
Mayor Called On for More
Police to Patrol Water
front During Strike.
SCALE OF WAGES ADOPTED
xHVtiployers Are Determined to Have
Issue Settled Once for AH, Be
lieving No Dispute Should
Tie XJp City's Shipping.
An agreement pledging' shipowners
and business men generally to observe
the rules and regulations and wage
scale as presented by the Chamber of
Commerce for conducting business on
the waterfront and to support those
steamship companies which adopt the
rules and regulations and wage scale,
was indorsed by a meeting of nearly
200 shipping men and business men of
Portland at a. meeting called at the
Chamber of Commerce yesterday to
consider the strike situation.
This agreement is already circulating
and is being signed freely by the ship
owners and business men.
A second important action of the
meeting was to indorse a call upon
Mayor Albee, as Commissioner of Pub
lic Safety, to exercise the authority
vested in him to provide adequate po
lice force to preserve order and to
protect those who are endeavoring to
conduct a proper business on the water
front. Business Men Would Serve.
In connection with this appeal to the
Mayor, an agreement was indorsed in
which support in every possible manner
is pledged to the Mayor in the action
that may be .taken to prevent violence
and to enforce law and order.
This agreement pledges the signers
to personal service if called upon, and
is already receiving the signatures of
great numbers of the business men who
attended the meeting and among whom
it has already been circulated.
A statement prepared and presented
at the meeting showed that the court
records indicate an increase of violence
on the part of the strikers and their
sympathizers, and the court records
were supplemented by statements from
the steamboat owners, setting forth a
number of additional cases in which no
arrests were made.
While the Mayor. Chief of Police and
the harbormaster were commended for
he excellent work done, it was pointed
out that the force at present is not suf
ficient to cope fully with the situation,
and the authorities were accordingly
alled on to provide such additional
force as may be needed to quell disturb
ances and disperse men assembled for
riotous purposes.
Fight Is Determined On.
"The Chamber of Commerce and the
Employers' Association are determined
in this fight." says the statement of the
meeting issued after- its adjournment
last night, "to remove from Portland,
for all time, the handicap of excessive
cargo handling charges which, have
prevailed here for many years. To this
condition, perhaps more than to any
other handicap, can- be charged our
lack of shipping. .
"It is contended By all who have
made any study of the serious condi
tions confronting this city at this time
that her future development depends
upon her ability to secure transporta
tion lines, for the purpose of carrying
products of the soil and factory to the
markets of the world. -
"It seems evident that industries will
continue to go where transportation is
available. It is realized that if it costs
more to handle cargo in Portland than
elsewhere, that ships will not operate
into and from this port.
Case Is Declared "Vital.
"It is hoped that the entire city will
be aroused to the. importance and seri
ousness of the present situation and
the absolute need of removing the han
dicaps which retard or may preclude
the developfent of shipping in Port
land. Mayor Albee is determined to be
fair to all. and at the same time to en
force the law.
"It is unfortunate that we have a po
lice force with 50 to 100 men less ttvin
employed in nearly all cjties of our
population and area.
"Recently the Chamber of Commerce,
through its board of directors, adopted
a set of resolutions pertaining to the
waterfront situation and declaring for
the open shop. Later a referendum
was sent to the membership, and the
vote polled was the largest of any vote
ever recorded in the Chamber of Comr
merce, 1010 members voting, 990 ap
proving and 20 disapproving of the ac
tion of the board."
Agreement Is Signed.
The schedule of rules and regulations
and the wage scale outlined by the
Chamber of Commerce, which was af
fixed to the agreement which was
signed by the shipowners and other
business men who agreed to abide by
them, are as follows:
The Portland Chamber of Commerce rec
Knizes that the prosperity of the city of
rortland and of the state of Oregon de
pends to a large degree upon the freedom
with which water commerce may move
to and from this part.
The Chamber recognizes that any un
reasonable charges for handling cargoes
or any ourdensome conditions imposed on
the movement or operation 'of vessels must
necessarily restrict this commerce. The
Chamber recognizes the right of employers
and employes engaged in handling cargoes
to make such agreements between them
selves as to wages and as to conditions
of performing labor as may be mutually
satisfactory, so long as the movement of
commerce is not hampered by an unreason-'
aDie wage scale or by unreasonable re
quirements. Schedule of Wages Approved.
The Chamber, however, considers itself
Justified as the representative of the public,
in insisting that, regardless of all other
considerations, the Interest of the publio
is paramount, and no scale of 'wages or
conditions shall be permitted in this port
whether as the result of private contract
or otherwise which will Impose an un
reasonable burden on water commerce.
The Chamber of Commerce, therefore,
having .egard for the Interests of those
engaged in handling water commerce in
this port and for the interests of this com
munity and state, does hereby indorse as the
maximum rate of wages for waterfront
labor the following schedule and as a
guide for the handling of cargoes the fol

HEAT ADDS TO EPIDEMIC
EW YORK'S INFANT DEATH ROLL.
FOR. DA V IS 32.
Health Officers Optimistic Because Co.
operative Effort Has Seemed to
Confine the Disease.
NEW YORK, July 11. Intense heat
today added to the burden of the health
authorities in their fight to check the
spread of infantile paralysis, which
took a toll of 32 lives in the 24 hours
ending at 10 A. M. The depressing
temperature, it was explained, tends
to reduce the physical resistance of
children against possible contagion.
Federal and city health officials took
an optimistic view of the situation to
night, notwithstanding the fact that
195 new cases had b,een reported, on
the ground that the co-operative work
of the various city departments has
resulted in preventing the epidemic
from spreading geographically.
The campaign to educate dwellers in
the densely populated parts of the city
that cleanliness is the important pre
ventive of the disease is having such
excellent results that health officers
predicted tonight the usual Summer
epidemic of typhoid fever will be di
minished considerably.
Dr. Haven Emerson, Health Commis
sioner, deplored the undue alarm which
is causing anxious parents to con
fine their children indoors through fear
of contagion.
"More children's lives are lost in any
real epidemic of measles than will be
lost in this whole epidemic," he said.
"There is no reason 'why we should
become panic-stricken about it. Be
cause of fright parents wilr deny their
children the fresh air essential to their
health. If the children are kept in
doors infant mortality is certain to rise
from causes other than infantile pa
ralysis." IDAHO GUARD ARRIVES

Work Begun Immediately Trenching
Against-Rain Vigilant Guard Is
Being Maintained.
NOG ALES, Ariz., July 11. (Special.)
Another full regiment of federalized
guardsmen was added to the troops
concentrated here today with the ar
rival of the Second Infantry of Idaho.
The regiment, consisting of 12 in
fantry companies, a machine gun com
pany, a supply company and the
headquarters staff, arrived early in
the afternoon on a troop train run
ning in three long sections.
The Idahoans arrived here in good
health and with bubbling spirits. They
appear to be a hardy lot and fully
prepared for the work ahead of them.
They have had more time to prepare
than other troops which were rushed
to the border and as a result their
equipment is complete, the entire regi
ment has been examined physically and
most of the men have received their
second typhoid prophylaxis treatment-
All officers in the regiment attended
today a school of instruction on various
sections of field service regulations.' A
good part of the day was devoted to
entrerfchlng against the expected rains.
Ditches that are almost small canals
are being constructed around all camps.
The Mexican side of Nogales remains
quiet and more natives are coming
back daily from the Magdalena dis
trict to which they fled two weeks
ago. But this has not caused any
cessation of vigilance or diminishing
of thje guard on this side of the line.

LONDON. July 11. The text of to
day's official statement by the War
Office is:
"Last night after a brisk bombard
ment our infantry again carried Con
talmaison by assault, taking 189 un
wounded prisoners, including a bat
talion commander and four other offi
cers. A strong counter attack de
livered by the Germans during the
night was beaten back with heavy
losses to the - enemy and the whole
village is now in our hands.
"Farther . east we stormed several
lines of trenches in the Bois de Mametz
and the greater part of this large wood
is now in our possession. Here we
captured one 'heavy howitzer, three
field guns and 296 unwounded prison
ers, including jthree officers.
"In continuation of the report on
aerial combats on July 9, one of our
aeroplanes was shot down by a direct
hit from an anti-aircraft gun and three
other machines have not returned to
our lines."

BERLIN, via London. July 11. The
War Office statement today concerning
operations on the eastern front says:
"From the coast to Pinsk no events
of especial Importance occurred. The
Russian announcement regarding the
evacuation of Pinsk is a pure inven
tion. "The enemy made futile attacks with
strong forces at several points against
the line of the Stokhod. notably near

PROJECT LONG FORMED
Ilerr Lohmann Says Hardest Part of
His Task Was to Convince Pro
posed Backers War Would
I-iast Another Year.
BERLIN. July 11, via London. July
12. The opening of direct shipping
connections between Germany and the
United States by the submarine mer
chantman Deutschland has occasioned
great jubilation and ' enthusiasm
among Germans, but no one is more
elated than Alfred Lohmann, ex-president
of the Bremen Chamber of Com
merce and the originator of an under
water service.
To the Associated Press Herr Loh
mann said today that the Deutschland
was only the first of a fleet of sub
marine freighters and that regular
trans-Atlantic service with frequent
sailings soon would be in operation.
A second boat, named the Bremen,
he added, is about to start for America
with a ctrgo, and several sister ships
are rapidly approaching completion. It
is understood that the number of boats
soon will be adequate for the establish
ment of a weekly service.
Unarmed Character Emphasised.
"Remember." said Herr Lohmann,
"that the Deutschland was entirely un
armed; she carried no torpedo tubes,
no cannon and no weapons of offense
or defense of any kind.
"So desirous was I that the unarmed
merchantman character of our boats
should be established beyond doubt that
I insisted that the captain of the
Deutschland should not even carry the
customary revolver on leaving Bre
men." Under these circumstances, he con
tended, there is nothing to prevent the
Deutschland. exclusively a merchant
man, from remaining as long as she
pleases in a neutral harbor and load
ing a cargo, fuel and supplies, free
from the restrictions which prevent
warships from entering a neutral port
except under stress, or remaining more
than 24 hours.
"I conceived the idea of breaking
the British blockade long ago," Herr
Lohmann continued, "but the project
first took definite shape last Autumn,
when 1 succeeded in convincing the
capitalists associated with me the
Deutsche Bank and Nord Deutsche
Lloyd that the war presumably would
be lost in another 12 months.
Single Voyage Pays for Vessel.
"This was the hardest part of my
task. Once this' was done, the rest
was easy, for our figures showed that
the boats would more than pay for
themselves in a single round trip.
"A company was immediately incor
porated as the 'German Ocean Naviga
tion Company of Bremen' with a nomi
nal capital. Articles' were filed on
November 8 and work was begun on
the first and second boats. The Deutsch
land was completed some time ago and
after successful trials in the Baltic,
started for America, following the
usual peace route of our Bremen and
Hamburg steamers.
"No, I don't care to give her exact
sailing date, nor the time of passage,
but you can reach an approximation
from the boat's speed of 14 knots,
making the necessary allowance for
reduced speed when running submerged
and for a certain tame in resting on
the bottom, which was necessary in
getting through the channel past the
British lines."

SAN FRANCISCO. July 11. The
American tank steamer Gold Shell,
owned by .the Shell Oil Company of
California, struck a mine off Bordeaux

"On the left bank of the Meuse there

fore Campaign Opens Fili
huster Is Improbable.
WASHINGTON, July 11. Democratic
and Republican leaders in the Senate
will hold a conference tomorrow to dis
cuss means of expediting: legislation so
that Congress may adjourn for the po
litical campaign.
Republican Senators in conference to
day appointed a special committee to
confer with the Democrats on the sub
ject. The Democratic steering commit
tee also met. decided on a Legislative
programme and voted to hold the Sen
ate in session nine hours a day until
it is completed. The Navy and Army
appropriation bins, the shipping, child
labor and corrupt practices measures,
and the 1 200. 000.000 revenue bill were
listed as the Imperative legislation on
the programme.
Conservation measures will be laid
aside until next session, and action on
the pending immigration bill probably
also will be deferred.
Every Democratic Senator received
tonight a written notice from Majority
Leader Kern announcing that the ar
rangement for daily sessions from 11
A. M. to 8 P. M. was "deemed necessary
to the end that the business of the
Senate may be expedited and concluded
within a reasonable time."
The attitude of Republican Senators
reflected in today's conferences aroused
hope of a reasonably early adjournment.
General sentiment seemed to be against
a filibuster on the shipping or revenue
bills. The minority is expected to op
pose both measures vigorously, but
leaders are paid not to favor dilatory
methods as they are just as anxious
as the Democrats to get Into the cam
paign. Democratic members of the finance
committee began work on the House
revenue bill today. Some amendments
are under consideration, one of them to
eliminate the proposed copper tax.
There also may be some readjustment
of the income tax schedule, but it is
declared there will be no reduction of
the exemption limit.
The Democrats of the commerce com
mittee will complete tomorrow the re
vision of the shipping bill, and it will
be reported to the Senate from the
whole committee Thursday.

mines to destroy one of our trenches.
He was checked by our fire and driven
back, leaving dead and wounded.
"In the Vosges south of Lusse. an at
tack of the enemy was broken up with
grenades. North of Lafontenelle a sur
prise attack on trenches of the enemy
enabled us to penetrate first line
trenches and a support trench, which
we cleared out. We brought back
some prisoners."
Tonight's supplementary official re
port says:
"On both sides of the Somme the day
was relatively calm. Small detached
operations enabled us to clear com
pletely the wood north of La Maison
nette and to occupy some underground
passages between Estrees and Belloy-en-Santerre.
We took some prisoners.
"After several fruitless attempts.
which cost him heavy losses, the enemy
succeeded In gaining a footing in the
Damloup battery and In some elements
of our line in the Fumin wood. The
bombardment is being maintained in
tensely in the whole region.
"in tne region of the Somme our
aeroplanes were engaged In 14 combats

a landing without accident."

ROM 13, via London. July 11. The
pressure exerted by the Italian forces
in the Trentino has resulted in the re
call of several divisions of Austrian
troops which were about to be sent to
the eastern front, according to the
official statement issued today. The
Italian offensive continues. The state
ment says:
"In order to withstand the pressure
we continue to exercise in the Trentino
and our counter-offensive activity in
the Boite and But valleys and on the
Lower Isonzo, the enemy has been
obliged to recall to this front troops
withdrawn toward the eastern front.
This has been ascertained in the cases
of the Third corps and the Sixth, Twenty-second
and Twenty-eighth divisions,
which were on the point of departure,
and the Ninetieth division and the One
Hundred and Eighty-seventh landsturm
brigade, which were already on the
way.
"On the Pasubio front we captured
positions north of Monte Corno, but the
enemy succeeded in obtaining part re
