THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAN. TUESDAY, AUGUST 1.". 1916.
SEASON OPEN
OREGON TODAY
Hunters to Strike Early Into
Wilds for First Big Game
Shoot of 1916.
MANY WAIT DARK t)F MOON
Sport Likely to Be Good This Sea
son in Southern Oregon, Where
- Black tail Species Abounds.
Game Warden Cautions.
lj Not a few Oregon nimxoas win ae
part this morning on their first 1916
deer hunt, tor the big-game season
in this state starts today and will
last until October 31.
Most of the "early birds" will hike
for one of the following places: West
Fork, in the Cow Creek country, this
side of Rogue River; Riddle, just this
side of West Fork; Glendale, Camas
Prairie, southeast of Roseburg; Mount
Hood and around the Roaring River,
which is tributary to the Upper Clack
amas. Wilson River, between McMinnville
and Tillamook, and the rvehalem coun
try will be other frequented haunts.
Many to Await Dark; of Moon.
Many of the wise hunters will wait
for the "dark of the moon." When there
Is no moon the sport is better and the
deer easier to get. When there is a full
moon the animals feed at night and
sleep and lay around all day; but when
the moon is dark or when there is no
moon the deer are feeding at daylight,
and it is then that the sport Is better.
State Game Warden Carl E. Shoe
maker advises all the hunters to wear
red shirts and red caps, so that they
can easily be distinguished. Most of
the sportsmen have adopted this uni
form and hope to make it a set rule
for all hunters to keep the list of "shot
for a deer" down.
Deer hunting, according to" reports,
should be good in any of the Southern
Oregon counties. Reports received from
the following counties say that a great
season is looked forward to: Lane,
Douglas. Coos, Curry, Jackson, Joseph
ine, Klamath, Linn, Lincoln, Tillamook
and Columbia.
Blackball Species Most Common.
The blacktail species predominates in
Oregon. In some parts of Southern
Oregon there are a good number of the
mule species, which is larger than any
other kind. The benchleg species is to
be found in a few places in Southern
Oregon. These three species compose
about all the kinds of deer in this state.
Here is the most important part of
the game laws for deer hunters as pre
pared by the Oregon State Legislature:

PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION
MAKE INVESTIGATION.
Low Rate on Long; Haul From Eastern
Oregon to Seattle Said to Be
Throttling Industry.
SALEM. Or., Aug. 14. (Special.) To
ascertain why the dairying industry of
Eastern Oregon has not prospered
equally with other industries in that
section of the state, and to adjust the
freight rates on dairy commodities if
they are found responsible, the Oregon
Public Service Commission will inves
tigate the rates now charged by the
American Express Company on these
products. Dairymen and commercial
Interests in Eastern Oregon were noti
fied today of the Commission s inten
tion to look into the situation. Their
co-operation is sought-
The present low rates for dairy
products on long hauls permits Seattle
to draw its supply from points as far
distant as the Snake River and. branch
line points in Eastern Oregon. Great
quantities of milk and craam are now
shirmed from Eastern Oregon to Seat
tie. there to be made into DUtter ana
other dairy products, members of the
Commission say. The present rates on
dairy products manufactured in East
ern Oregon, it is said, prohibit compe
tition with Seattle manufacturers, so
that the industry is throttled except
for supplying local demands.

UNION MEN TO WORK
Nonunion Loaded Vessels Not
to Be Held Up in California.
PORTLAND FOR OPEN SHOP
Agreement Regarding Handling of
Cargo in Southern Port Does
Not Apply to Lumber Car
riers, but to All Others.
Cargoes loaded on vessels here In
Portland by nonunion men will bo dis
charged at San Francisco, if sent there,
without delay, in spite of the recent
agreement reached there between the
employers and striking longshoremen
relative to the handling of cargoes. As
surances to this effect have been re
ceived from San Francisco by the Port
land Chamber of Commerce.
Vessels engaged in the lumber trade
are not included in this agreement, it
is specified. '
The settlement of the strike in San
Francisco was made on the basis of 65
cents an hour regular time and 82 H
cents overtime. The Portland Chamber
of Commerce is holding out here for a
scale of not more than oo cents an hour
and 75 cents for overtime. No agree
ment will be made with the strikers, it
is declared, except on the basis of an
open shop.
The agreement reached win axieci
steamers of the "Big Three" fleet es
pecially. Those vessels have been load
ed and unloaded by strikebreakers
since shortly after the opening of the
strike here.
When the news of the settlement In
San Francisco was first heard it was
thought that there might be some dif
ficulty in getting those vessels un
loaded in San Francisco In case the
policy of using nonunion men was
continued here. This, howecver, is evi
dently not the case. Under the settle
ment the cargaes of the vessels of that
line will be handled by unlonmen at
San Francisco and. according to pres
ent plans, nonunion men here.
The employers and striking long
shoremen apparently are no nearer &
settlement of their differences in Port
land than they were. A prominent
employer sxld yesterday that nothing
bu-t the open .mop here would be
countenanced. Longshoremen appar
ently are not yet willing to concede
that. Longshore officials declare that
thore is no change in the situation from
their standpoint. They say the matter
is in the hands of their executive board
and they have received no word as
to wh.-t further iicps will be taken.
FLAG SHOWN TO NAVY SHIP
Skippers of Merchant Vessels De
clared Lax as to Sea Custom.
American shipmasters are lax in the
matter of displaying the American flag

ter issued to Collector of Customs by

Department of Commerce, one of which
was received yesterday by Collector of
Customs Burke. It says:
Compliance -lth the ruttom Is in the In
tereat of merchant shipping and the com
merce of the United Htstes. and failure to
comDlv with it may Involve serious com
quences. It Is asked that the attention of
mssters be directed to the matter. hteps
have been taken before to impress on nav
laators that such action Is desired by the
federal authorities, but all are not conform.

GREW IS DEFIANT
Bark Callao Again in Port,
After Drifting in Fog.
DUTY REFUSED BY MEN
Sailors Declare They AVere Shipped
With Understanding Vessel Was
to Bo Towed and Declare Ves
sel Was Undermanned.
SAX FRANCISCO. Aug. 14. With the
members of her crew defiant and
charging misrepresentation, the three-
masted bark Callao was towed back
into this port late today after almost
48 hours of drifting about in a dense
to wireless appeals dispatched by Cap
tain William Tobtn.
Trouble started Saturday night,
shortly after the vessel had cleared for
New York with a cargo of barley and
OIL Through a spokesman, the crew
according to Captain Tobin. demanded
that the ship be turned back, charging
that they had 'shipped with the under
standing that the Callao was to be
towed to the Panama Canal, whence
she would proceed to New York.
They declared, the captain said, that
they had learned the vessel. Instead of
being towed, would sail around the
Horn. They asserted that the ship
was unseaworthy; that the crew was
not sufficient for such a voyage: that
there was no provision aloft for the
safety of the men. and that the blocks
and tackles were defective. Tle crew
included only eight aote-ooaiea sea
men.
Captain Tobin denied tonight that
the voyage had been misrepresented
to the men and that the vessel was un
seaworthy and said he bad sent mes
cages for a tug only because the men
had refused to obey his orders. As the
bark anchored. Custom House officials
boarded, her. but departed after a pre.
llminary survey of the situation. The
matter, they said, probably would be
taken up with the United States Ship
ping Commissioner tomorrow by
George W. McNear & Company, who
dispatched the Callao as agent for the
Brynhilda Shipping Corporation of New
York, owners of the vessel.
A new crew will be signed as soon as
possible. It was said, and the voyage
resumed.
Hans Peterson, who was spokesman
for the crew and who presented the
ultimatum to Captain Tobin Saturday.
stated tonight that his sole reason for
desiring to return to port was because
he feared the Callao might frill into
the hands of a German war vessel, and
that he. being of German birth, would
be forced to go to the war. Two other
members of the crew, also of German
bitth. agreed with Peterson's statement
that the charges of misrepresentation
and unseaworthiness were made be
cause they were, afraid they would be
forced to fight.

AYhlle Beyond Three-Mile Limit,
Promoters of Scheme Say.
MARSHFIELD. Or., Aug-. 1 4- (Spe
clal.) It is admitted in some quar
ters that efforts are bein made to
charter a vessel to bring- a cargo of
liquor to this vicinity when the Kail
road Jubilee takes place.
The plan is to have the ship anchor
offshore. Just outside the three-mile
limit, and run excursion boats out.
taking the thirsty who would purchase
beer, whisky or wins without in any
way violating the Oregon prohibition
law.
The cost of charter in y a ship I
known to be hfsrh. but those who hope
have the oasis whs-re it will be
convenient to th Jubilee crowds br
ieve it would be a paying- investment.
Governor Withycombe. while in the
city recently, was quoted as saying the
Oregon law could not interfere with
such a plan, according to his under
standing of it.
The district Attorney, la. A. L.I1-
eqvist. has bs-en asked about the
egality of the idea, but he would not
give an opinion.
The point Is made by tho?- who look
upon the scheme as feasible that It
would be simply moving the California
ine within three) milea of Coos Bify
for the time being.

Canal Prospects Ileus&ed.
Through the departure from San
Francisco for New York last week of
C. W". Cook, Pacific Coast manager of
the American-Hawaiian fleet, specula
tion is rife as to whether the company
plana an early resumption of the Canal
service to Portland and other Co.tct
porta with such vessels as may be
urned back to the owners. The entire)
fleet ia engaged in other trades under
charter at present, but it ia sur. nosed
some engagements are soon to expire,
and. with the Canal available again a.-.d
considerable business offering, it la
supposed the directors are considering
whether some of the carriers could be)
used profitably to resume the former
schedule.
