14 THE 3IORXIXG OKEGOXL1N, FRIDAY, JULY 28. 191G. OREGON WATERWAY . FUNDS AVAILABLE Rivers and Harbors Bill, Just Signed, Carries $1 ,200,000 for Second District. JETTY CONTRACT IS LET Major Jewett Orders Coal and Calls for Kock Kids Float ing Plant Is Heady for Dredging; Projects. OREGON" GETS TOTAL OF Sl.Olft.OOO. Appropriations carried in the rivers and harbors bill will make available Jl.766,000 for the Sec ond Oregron District and $152,000 for the First Oregon District, a total of 1, 918. 000. The funds are to apply on existing improve ments at Oregon coast harbors, the Columbia River from its mouth to the Snake River, Wil lamette River- to the present head of navigation and the principal tributaries of those streams. Informed in an official telegram from General Black, Chief of Engineers at "Washington, that the) rivers and har bors bill had been signed by President "Wilson, Major Henry C. Jewett, Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., in charge of the .Second Oregon District, yesterday af fixed his signature to a contract for the delivery of 4000 tons of coal for the north jetty, and ordered bids called for to provide 50,000 tons of rock for the same project. General Black's telegram set forth that $1,200,000 was made Immediately available for the improvement of the mouth of the Columbia River, which comprises jetty construction and dredg ing, and in the same message assured Major Williams that the sub-project work had been approved, so there is no obstruction to the task being car ried on with increased, energy. Major Arthur Williams, in charge of the First Oregon District, was the recipient of the same cheerful , infor mation relative to the bill being signed, jo, important labor under his jurisdic tion can be resumed at once, and more will be given impetus as soon as prepa rations are finished. Old Rock Price l. The last contract for rock for the north jetty, entered into with the Co lumbia Contract Company, was on a basis of $1 a ton delivered at Fort Can by. Deliveries under that agreement having been terminated long ago, pur chases were made from time to time in the open market, so stone was moving to keep the jetty force going, and the same charge was made. The call is sued yesterday provides for bids being Tiled at the office of Major Jewett so they may be opened August 28. It is reasoned that as the next ses sion of Congress will be short, and a rivers and harbors bill will be ap proved by March 4, as all business must be cleared up by then, the- appropria tions made available yesterday will be abundant for carrying on projects in this territory until Spring. The coal contract executed yesterday Js with the Durham Colliery Company at $2.20 a ton at the mine, which is lo cated at Durham, Wash. The Govern ment pays the freight to Fort Stevens, from where it will be barged to the north Jetty base at Fort Canby. 140,OO Saved Over. Added to $1,200,000 for the mouth of the Colombia, the bill carries an allot ment of $360,000 for the Columbia and Lower Willamette rivers, and as $140, 000 was saved from the previous ap propriation, that amount being on hand June 30. there will be virtually $500,000 for channel work between Portland and Astoria this season. There is $47,000 met aside for the Upper Willamette and the Yamhill rivers, with $17,500 for the Cowlitz and Lewis Rivers: $1000 for the Clatskanie River, and. $500 for Gray's River. The dredg"e Chinook Is in service at the entrance to the Columbia, and the pipeline dredges Multnomah and Wah- kiakum are being overhauled at the Government moorings, so if the stage of water is sufficiently low they could be returned to service in 10 days. The dredge Clatsop also has been gone over since her enforced laying up, while the tugs used as dredge tenders have been looked after, also the dredge .Montlcello- and steamer oodland. op erated in the Lewis, Cowlitz and Clat ekanie rivers, so all floating plant is in the best of condition. Prraent Force la 1T0 Men. The Jetty equipment was overhauled during the Winter, and while the pres ent force of men numbers about 150, and rock deliveries 2700 tons a day, it is hoped to increase the amount of rock to 3i00 tons each day and the work ing force may be increased to 200 men. Major llliams already has the steamer Lmatilla under way from Ce- lilo for Five-Mile Rapids on the Snake River with a drill scow, to resume work, and another will be started for Hoinly Rapids, on the Upper Columbia. The new bill makes available for projects under Major Williams' direc tion. $ 1 0.04)0 for Coos Bay; $3000 for Coos River; $.000 for channel work on Tillamook Bay between Bay City and Tillamook: $6000 for the Coquille River $3000 for the Siuslaw River, and $3S,000 lor the Columbia River and its tribu taries, extending from Celijo Falls and to the mouth of the Snake River. President S.fjns Bill. WASHINGTON, July 27. President "Wilson today signed the rivers and harbors appropriation hill carrying- ap proximately $4 2,000,000. Most of the money is to be spent on existing im provement projects. COAL FACILITIES ASSURED Tort of Portland Has Plans for Fuel Supplies When Trade lievives. Portland will furnish coal to steamers of the offshore fleet whenever a re sumption of shipping: causes a demand lor that class of fuel. The Commission of Public Docks, which reduced its rate recently for handling coal from cars across Dock No. 1 to barges, in the in terest of a Portland firm, was assured yesterday in a letter from the Port of Portland, through E. W. Wright, its manager, that the Port was prepared to undertaKe trie coaling venture when ever the business of the harbor war ranted. The commission received a request from the Pacific coast Port Conference. which deals with the affairs of various harbors, to have a representative at lend the annual session at Vancouver. H. c. Sep temper 4. b and 6. It was voted to confer with the Port of Port land with the hope that both bodies would have delegates at the meeting Schooner lioamer Cnlnjured. GOLD BEACH, Or.. July 27. (Spe cial.) The gasoline echooner Roamer. which went ashore yesterday- morning; at the mouth of the Rogue River, was pulled off at high tide at a o'clock last night and came back into harbor under her own power. She is thought to be undamaged. MATHEWS COMPLETED Latest Addition to Freeman Fleet to Ply From Columbia River. One new product of the Coast ship building industry, the steamer Daisy Mathews, 'is about to start service be tween San Francisco and Portland in the lumber trade, she having been completed and is to be formally turned over to her owners, the Freeman Steam ship Company, today or tomorrow. The Daisy Mathews has a lumber ca pacity of 1.500.000 feet, and is of S13 tons net register. The same line has the Daisy Gadsby, Daisy Freeman, Daisy Putnam and Daisy in the -Coast traae. The latter steamer left San Pedro yes terday for the river. In spite of the demand for auxiliary schooners, fitted with semi-Diesel engines, a number of which are under construction on the Coast, there have been a few steam schooners planned this year, two of them being under way at Wilson Broth ers yard, Astoria, for the Mccormick ine, and there are others building at Washington ports and San Francisco. TlTSBrXEItS STAY IX SOUTH Admiral Line "Will Xot Operate Them In Alaskan Service. Tn taking over the fleet, turbiners Yale and Harvard, now operated be tween San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego by the pacific Navigation Company, it is said to be the intention of the Pacific-Alaska Navigation Com pany, known as the Admiral Line, to retain the Yale and Harvard on the same route. The move to gain control of those chips is said to be wholly to improve the service. Talk that the turbiners were to be used in the Alaska trade is scouted, one official pointing out that they are not suited for general conditions in north ern waters. The company now oper ates the Admiral Evans, Admiral Far- ragut and Admiral Watson between Puget Sound and Alaska, and Admiral Dewey and Admiral Schley between Puget Sound and California harbors. With the Yale and Harvard in the fleet faster service -would be given between Puget Sound and San Francisco to con nect with them. FOCTX WAYS ARE liEIXti BUILT Falling Water Permits Work on Cradles for Steel Vesels. Increasing the scope of operations as rapidly as consistent, the Northwest Steel Company's force now has the four ways at the new steel shipbuilding' plant under construction at the foot of Sheridan street- Two were well along early in the month and, as the freshet waters have receded, opportunity nas been eiven for the employment of larger gangs at the site. Four of the five vessels contracted for so far will be under way at the same time and the fifth is to be begun when the first is launched. Steel is being delivered regularly and early ar rival of part of the material permitted a large amount of preliminary work to be carried out on plates and different parts. Marine Notes.

LABOR HALLTO OPEN Open Shop Clearing-Hcuse for Dock Workers Planned. EMPLOYERS IN AGREEMENT Fifty Cents an Hour, With Half as Much More for Overtime, Is Rate of Wages Arranged for La borers on Waterfront. A clearing-house for waterfront la borers who will work under open-shop conditions at the rate of 50 cents an hour for nine hours and 75 cents an hour overtime, soon will be estab lished somewhere in tne business dis trict by the executive committee of the employers. This plan was agreed on at a meet ing of the committee yesterday. A subcommittee of five persona was named to arrange the details. Members of the committee reported yesterday that the present strike on the waterfront has . revealed that workingmen who do not belong to the unions have no place to go when they are not at work and no place where they may apply for employment. This "Labor Hall," as it is to be known, is to meet this situation. Need for Hall Realised. After the meeting the committer made the following explanation of its plan, through the Chamber of Com merce: '"The employers recognize that a hall must be established where all men de siring work may assemble, and where the employers of the waterfront may telephone or go to secure the required number of efficient workmen. It will be the purpose to develop this service in charge of a competent man so that the most experienced workmen for. the class of duty to be performed are chosen and so that these may be furnished to all employers applying for it. This same service has been undertaken in Grays Harbor and will be in Puget Sound ports, as it is recog nized a necessary condition to make the employment of all classes of labor a convenient thing and one giving the best opportunity to the laborers them selves, and also affording them reas onable comfort during the time they have to wait between jobs. "As a result of the last meeting of the, executive committee it is apparent that the lumber interests will join with other shippers and business men of the community in establishing the rate of 50 cents an hour regular time and 75 cents an hour overtime, as well as the open-shop principle, in water front work. Many Sign Agreement. "Conferences have been held with the lumber people and they declare their willingness to co-operate in this plan, and quite a number of the lead ing manufacturers and shippers have signed the Chamber of Commerce's agreement to abide by the rules, regu lations and wage scale that has been promulgated. "The agreement that has been pre pared is being quite widely signed throughout the city, and. so far as re ports have come to the executive com mittee, there is practically no opposi tion whatever to the plan among the employing interests. All declare that they will stand by the purpose of plac ing this port on an equality with other .Northwestern ports which have ac cepted the rate of 50 cents regular time and 75 cents overtime, and an open- shop condition. Strike Delays Mails. SEATTLE, "Wash., July 27. Testify ing that it had been unable even to move United States mails, until Federal I Judge Xeterer issued a restraining or- aer, loroiaamg tne international Longshoremen's Association to inter fere with the employes or property of the Alaska Steamship Company, the company in today s hearing on the or der, asked for its continuance. In sup port of the request, R- B.

Wedderbnrn Trailing Company's Seine Hani, la Local Slam's Drift Net and Catch Is Selmcd. GOLD BEACH. Or.. July 27. (Spe cial.) R. Li. Macleay, of Portland, pres ident of the Macleay Estate Company, is technically charged with robbery in Curry County and a warrant for his ar rest has been issued. Mr. Macleay left Wedderburn Tuesday morning for Port land. The officers of Multnomah Coun ty have been notified. The charge grows out of an incident which occurred on Rogue River, where Mr. Macleay's company claims exclusive fishing- rights, last Sunday night, when the crew operating the seine for the Wedderburn Trading Company, under Mr. .Macleay s direction encircled and hauled ashore a drift net and boat op erated by John liundall. a fisherman. The crew seized and carried away th fish which were entangled in Mr. Run dall's net. "This is only a part of the trouble that has been going on for three or four years," said Mr. Macleay, at the Arlington Club, when- informed last night that a warrant had been issued for his arrest. "We have had trouble in operating our iisning industry on the Rogue Riv er because local fishermen insist on in teriering with our nets. Last week, it seems, a seine operated by John Run dall got in the way of one of our nets. He claims $11.50 damages, I believe. The same thing happened with a num ber of other local fishermen last year.' INJUNCTION CASE HEAHD FIVE HOURS DEVOTED TO HEAD. IXG AFFIDAVITS. Steamship Company "Will Appear In Itebnttal Today Union Men Insist Violence Cautioned Against. Five hours were devoted to the read Ing of afifdavits af the hearins: before Federal Judge Wolverton yesterday, of Injunction proceedings brought against striking- longshoremen, by the San b rancisco & Portland Steamship Com pany. The longshoremen are now restrain ed by a temporary order from inter fering with the business or property of the company, or with strikebreakers employed by it. When court adjourned at 5 o'clock, the defense had just completed its case. Arthur I. Spencer, who with Harold M. Sawyer represents the Sam Francisco & Portland Steamship Com pany, announced that he would take about two hours today to introduce 15 or 20 affidavits in rebuttal. The arguments are likely to take the remainder of the day, and may pos sibly not be concluded until tomor row. Judge Wolverton may announce his decision at once on the completion of the arguments, or may take the case under advisement. Leaders of the local longshoremen's union in affidavits read by Attorney Matthlessen declared that they had ex pressly cautioned the men against committing any act of violence, or even using bad language, or commit ting any act that would turn public opinion against them.
