BAN FRANCISCO, July 20. Huge
piles of freight which have been con
gesting San Francisco's docks and get
ting bigger and bigger each day since
the longshoremen and steamboatmen
went on strike June 1 began to dimin
ish In size today, when the men re
turned to work.
On almost every dock, with the ex
ception of those used by lumber boats,
longshoremen, who went out demand
ing higher wages and the closed shop,
were back at work today under the
old conditions, pending arbitration of
their demands. In many cases they
found themselves working alongside
of nonunion men, but by night most
of the strikebreakers were gone. On
two docks the nonunionists marched
out In a body at noon, declaring they
would not labor by the side of the for
mer strikers.
The longshoremen who formerly
worked on the lumber docks were still
out today, their employers having rc
fused to grant them temporary con
cessions pending arbitration. Union
leaders . expected the lumber workers
would be working in a few days.
Passenger steamboats also began to
ply back and forth between San Fran
cisco and the ports of the bay and the
Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers
today, when the boatmen returned un
der the old conditions, after having
walked out on a second strike yester
day The law-and-order committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, which had par
tial control of the employers" end of
the bay and river strike, issued a state
ment today declaring that union men
would be taken back on all boats
which had been tied to the docks, but
that no nonunion men would be dis
charged from the boats being operated
to make room for the union men. The
strikers, the statement said, would
have to await their turn for jobs.

from Portland for The Dalles tomor
row morning. The Regulator line has
the Bailey Gatzert on a daily round
trip schedule between Portland and
The Dalles, leaving here each morning
except Fridays and Sundays, while at
night the steamer State of Washington
covers the same route.
For almost five weeks the service
has been either limited to one carrier
or stopped entirely because of the
freshet current In the Columbia. There
is some interference yet. so The Dalles
Columbia management sent the steam
er J. N. Teal, Captain Dave Smith:
also, dispatching the steamer' Inland
Kmplre, Captain I. B. Gray, as far as
Cascade Locks, where she transfers
her load to the others. Current above

land to be attributable to the delay In
President Wilson affixing his signature,
prompted the Chamber of Commerce to
telegraph an urgent request yesterday
to Senator Chamberlain that he ascer
tain the status of the matter, obtain
ing quick action if possible.
Since the river is falling, it is desired
to prepare for resuming channel work
as soon as the stage of water permits.
Xtefore undertaking preliminary labors,
it is hoped to have definite assurance
that funds are at hand. Also work on
the north Jetty at the entrance to the

SEATTLE, Wash, July S6, (Special.)
Seaworthy as ever in spite of nearly
nine months' imprisonment in the Kus
kokiwim River ice, the stout power
schooner Bender Brothers, owned and
operated by Shields & Knaflisch, or
Seattle, is once mors breasting the
wastes of the North Pacific on her
war home.
Moreover she la -cemias; aalc with a
cargo of salted king salmon. The sal
mon were caught and salted by the
crew between, the time the Bender
Brothers was freed from the Ice and
the izne she sailed on the home-coming
voyage. The ice broke up early in
June and the famous vessel departed
from Bethel, on the Kuskokiwim, July
8. The presence of the cargo shows
that the schooner is living up to her
reputation of always "bringing home
the bacon."
News that the Bender Brothers is
hastening southward was received this
morning by J. S. Shields In a wireless
message from his partner. Captain
Louis Knaflisch. Captain Knaflisch
commands the power schooner Ruby,
also owned by the two Seattle men. He
sent the wireless from the Alaska Pe

BAKER TO ASK STATE SUIT
Accounting tor 'Forest Sale and New
Distribution Method Desired.
BAKER, Or., July 20. (Special.)
Request that the state start suit
against the State Treasurer and Secre
tary of State for an accounting for
forest sales declared to have been dis
tributed wrongfully since 1898. is to be
made by District Attorney Godwin, who
left tonight for Portland, where he will
confer with Attorney-General Brown
at the District Attorney's convention.
This move in the county's effort to get
$15,000, which is Baker County's share
of these receipts, was settled on today
by Mr. Godwin and Attorney William
Packwood, Jr., who is working with
him on the case. It is planned also to
ask for an Injunction to restrain the
state officers from further distribution
until a proper system may be deter
mined on.
According to the law, the attorneys
say, suit cannot be brought against the
state, although the state can readily
bring suit against any of its officers.
The introduction of a bill in the Legis
lature providing for a distribution of
funds in' the various counties in pro
portion to the amount of lumber cut
each year, would he the next step, Mr.
Godwin and Mr. Packwood agree.

MILTON. Or.. July 20. (Special.)
Information received here today indi
cates that the name of the young man
who was ground to pieces beneath the
wheels of O.-W. R. N. train No. 8 here
yesterday was West Milton, and that
his parents reside on the old Miller
farm in Benton County, Oregon.

a moving train and that he fell as
result of a kick administered by the
train brakeman. The trainman has re
turned to his work and it is not be
lieved any action will be taken by the

INJUNCTION SERVED
OH DOCK STRIKERS
Order "Ridiculous," Says Rob
ert Orr, Business Agent
5f Union No. 5.
POLICY PEACEFUL, HE SAYS
New Pressure at San Francisco Is
Talked, it Portland Employers
Insist on Open Shop Great
Northern Sails South.
Until the return this afternoon from
San Francisco of J. A. Madsen, secre
tary-treasurer of the Pacific Coast dis
trict. International Longshoremen's As
sociation; Jack Mahr, representative of
the Portland longshoremen on the ex
ecutive committee, and Charles Ben
nett, a committeeman from the River
Steamboatmen's Union, matters per
taining; to the strike that began June
1 will be held In abeyance, so far as
the union men are concerned.
Four officers of the unions were
served with copies of a petition of the
San Francisco A Portland Steamship
Company and of the order of Judge
Wolverton, of the Federal Court, which
restrains them and other officers and
11 members of the two unions from
picketing near the company's dock and
interfering with persons in its employ
until the hearing to determine whether
a permanent Injunction, shall issue.
which -is set for 2 o'clock Monday.
Talons Declared Peaceful.
J.. L. Johnston, president, and Robert
Orr, business agent, of Union No. 6,
were served; also M. P. Cannon, presi
dent, and A. E. Barbes, business agent.
of Union Po. 6. C. P. Holgate, secre
tary of No. 5, and P. TV'ard, secretary
of No. 6, were not at the headquarters
of their organizations at the time, and
J. A. Madsen, also named specifically
in the order, was not in the city.
"Ridiculous," was the reply of Rob
ert Orr, business agent of No. S, which
union attended to cargo of the San
Francisco & Portland line in the past,
when asked as to his opinion of the in
junction.
"Our policy is one of peace; it has
been and will be," he said. No later
than today five men left the nonunion
crew on Ainsworth dock and came to
headquarters, saying they had quit-
Mr. Johnston and myself accompanied
them back to the dock, and they ob
tained their money. We went simply
to show them they were In no danger
from members of the unions. These
men said they had come from Hood
River and worked two days there.
A. E. Barnes, business agent of
Union No. 6, said he did not understand
why that union had been included in
the temporary order.
Sew Pressure Is Possible.
"On voting to return to work here
we acted on the belief that we were to
receive the same consideration as was
accorded the San Francisco longshore
men," he said. "The vote was to re
turn under the conditions prevailing
prior to June 1, which included closed
shop. Vessels we have discharged and
loaded since then were handled by
firms on. our fair list and they paid
the scale that was proposed."
There was taJk yesterday that in
sistance by Portland employers for
open shop would probably result in the
unions bringing pressure to bear at
San Francisco to have those men walk
out again. All were reported working
there yesterday on general cargo ves
sels. Portland's waterfront was undis
turbed yesterday. The steamer Rose
City worked with nonunion men it
docKs below the bridges during the
day. returning last night to her berth
at Ainsworth dock. The McCormick
steamer Wapama was engaged in load
ing lumber at the West Oregon mill,
Linnton, and will continue in that vi
cinity today, millhands delivering lum
ber aboard where it is stowed by the
union sailors. The regular union long
shoremen loaded the steamer Break
water, at Columbia dock, her owners,
the North Pacific Steamship Company,
having- been on the fair list of the
j unions from the start, when they au
thorized the payment of the new scale
and agreed to abide by amended work
ing rules.
Acceptance of the proposal of the
Astoria union longshoremen to return
to work at the scale and working rules
effective before the strike, which also
means closed shop, was made yester
day by the Great Northern Pacific
Steamship Company so the liner Great
Northern got away from the Flavel
dock with about 100 tons of cargo and
the Northern Pacific from San Fran
cisco with 437 tons. The former car
ried 204 passengers and on the North
ern Pacific, due today, are 140 pas
sengers. While the company was included
with the lines when the firat walkout
took place June 1, the men returned
to work there under the truce, but on
the second walkout, which wa directed
against members of the Waterfront
Employers' Union in retaliation for hir
ing armed nonunion men, the company
remained on the fair list, inasmuch as
it was not a member of the association,
yet it was decided T.ot to handle freight
while the walkout was on.
MUNITIONS CARGO STILL HELD
v
Schooner Annie Larson, Which Car
ried Supplies, in Grays Harbor.
ABERDEEN, Wash., July 20. (Spe
cial.) The arrival of the schooner
Annie Larsen here this week recalls

warehouse here, for which the Govern
ment pays $40 a month rent. As far
as known no efforts have been or are
being made to dispose of the munitions,
which, it is believed, were originally
intended for the use of revolutionists
in India.
The Larsen at the time of the con
fiscation of the munitions was trader

ever, was under the orders of a Ger

a sensational escape from the Larsen
while she lay moored off Hoquiam and
has not been heard of since.

RISE
ASKED
OX
CHINOOK
Deck and Engineer Officers Petition
for New Coast Scale.
In line with advances in wages
granted mates and engineers on steam
ers along the Pacific Coast, officers ,of
the Government dredge Chinook have
petitioned Major Jewett, Corps of Engi
neers. U. S. A., that th,r salaries be
added to in conformity with the new
scale.
It Is said the step can be taken only
on presentation of the facta to the chief
of engineers at Washington, accom
panied by the recommendation of the
district officer. One argument in favor
of granting the rise, other than that it
gives the men the prevailing scale, is
that the Chinook operates only part of
the year and the men are not assured
steady employment. When tied up a
small part of the crew, with the master
and chief engineer, are retained.
