UNION REJECTS PEACE
BUTTE ELECTRICIANS ADD TO DE
MANDS MADE TO COMPANIES.
Discharge of Superintendents Who Have
Been Keeping; Lines la Repair Is -Demanded
After Lively Session.
BUTTE, July 3. The Electricians'
Union, which had - declared a strike
against the Montana Power Company
for t.n Increase of $1 a day in wages,
tonight rejected the company's coun
ter proposal, and added to their origi
nal demands.
These demands are that all sub-sta
tion men who now are members of the
Engineers Union must become mem
bers of the Electricians' Union, and
that all men, now doing what is called
non-union work, must be discharged.
No time is set for the electricians'
strike committee to confer with the
company again.
The men the union wants discharged
are the superintendents, foremen and
company officials who have been keep
ing the company's lines in repair since
the strike began.
The company s counter proposal,
which was read to the electricians, it
was said, would give the electricians
more money than they had asked for.
but would have required the men to
work six days of eight hours each. The
electricians had demanded, in addition
to the wage increase, a five and one
half day week.

NO SHORTAGE OF
FUEL GARS EXISTS
Carriers Anxious for Business
Now Before Fruits Begin .
to Be Moved.
MAYOR ORDERS FUEL PROBE
Greater Part of Shipments Coming to
Few Large Dealers, Who Have
Contracts for Total Slab Out
put oIany Country Mills.
No shortage of cars exists with re
gard to the present fuel situation, say
the traffic officials of the various rail
roads tributary to. Portland. Further,
they declare almost unanimously, that
they would welcome demands for fuel
cars at this time, In order that any
possible congestion durin'g the harvest
shipping season may be averted.
In a number of instances fuel deal
ers are said to have Informed cus
tomers that they were unable to im
port slabwood and cordwood because
of a car shortage. The railroads cite
several such cases, which, on investi
gation, they declare, proved baseless.
A case in point was the discovery
that one dealer, who had informed his
customer that he was unable to obtain
cars, bad never placed an order for
cars with the railroad company at the
point from which his wood is shipped.
A number of idlo cars, ready for wood
shipments or any other freight traffic,
rested on the siding at that station.
No Car Shortage Exists.
The Spokane, Portland '& Seattle
Railroad was emphatic in its declara
tion that no shortage of cars exists,
and added that none is expected. While
the demands of fuel shippers may
cause a dearth of open cars, the com
pany will be able to offer any quan
tity of substitute boxcars.
The Oregon-Washington Railway &
Navigation Company reports plenty of
cars and a vigorous campaign toward
the loading of all cars at maximum
capacity.
As for the present car shortage, an
answer was found in the fact that the
company had a surplus yesterday of
1800 boxcars and 1400 open cars idle
and yearning for use. For six weeks,
it was stated, there had been no short
age of cars.
The Northern Pacific laid especial
stress on the necessity of dealers and
large users getting their supplies of
fuel in without delay, 'advising that
the municipality, public buildings and
other large individual consumers or
fuel could render no greater service
than by taking advantage of the pres
ent plenitude of car equiment
The Southern Pacific reports a move
ment of slabwood slightly heavier than
in average years, but is having no diffi
culty in supplying cars. It has an
nounced a policy of warding against
any possible tuture shortage, but ad
mits that the Fall shipments of crops
may bring the problem up again.
Offerings Not L'nusually Large.
The Portland Railway. Light & Power
Company, largest individual haulers of
cordwood and slabwood for Portland
consumption, have plenty of cars to
handle any fuel that may be offered,
but are hauling little more than the
normal supply from the dozen mills
along their lines. "The car situation Is
all right," the company declares.
Practically all shipments of slabwood
and fuel received by railroads tributary
to Portland are consigned to several
large fuel dealers of this city, who have
contracted for the total output of
many country mills.
This, then, is where the small fuel
dealer, of limited capital, quite dis
tinctly "gets off." And this is why.
say those who watch the fuel situa
tion, that the majority of Portland
fuel dealers are forced to tell their
customers that they cannot get slab-
wood at any price.
Steps will be taken by the city to
prevent manipulation for the boosting
of fuel prices. Mayor Baker yester
day announced that he has started an
investigation to determine the actual
conditions and if necessary will recom
mend means of' combating the fuel
speculators.
DROP IN RIVER IS 2.1 FEET
Forecast Is for Continued Recession
of Flood Waters.
Since the crest of the 1917 Summer
freshet was reached June 22, the Will
amette River has fallen 2.1 feet, the
depth recorded yesterday being 21.7 feet
above zero. Alfred H. Thiessen, meteor,
ologlst of the Weather Bureau, said last
night that "lower temperatures pre
vailed throughout the eastern part of
the district yesterday. Indicating there
will be a further check in the upper
streams.
"For three or four days, at least, the
river will fall here, though not rapid
ly," said Mr. Thiessen, "and conditions
are favorable, there being nothing now
to indicate a gain."

"I had heard that yours was a city of

beautiful than I had dreamed. How
delighted I am! I had no Idea it was
so large and wonderful. First, I had to
hurry off to the hairdresser's, to
brighten up after travel, but this even
ing I have been out walking and I
feel that I know Portland from its
homes."
Five tongues has Mary Jordan to
choose from, when she would sing. All
the musical lore of Russia, Italy,
France, and her own homeland. Is hers.
And the fifth Is Hebrew, which she con
siders to be rich In possibilities of ex
pression. And when she talks of the Russian
songs, which are folk songs of the
provinces, you catch from her tone the
caress that that rich voice must give to
those rhymed and lilting stories of the
peasantry when she sings them. There
is one, from Kief, and It Is called "The
Break-switch."
"You can't literally translate them,"
explained Miss Jordan, "but this one
is about a husband who came home
from work to find his wife pouting and
moody. She was curt and disagreeable
to his greeting, and snapped that she
had a headache. And he went out to

Welsh Miners Sing Oratorios.
Mary Jordan was born In " Cardiff.
Wales, of English parents, and her
mother before her had the gift of song.
There Is a little church at Monmouth
shire. England, where Miss Jordan's
mother used to sing on Sunday morn
ings a shrine to which the daughter
plans to pay her pilgrimage.
But she is American, "a product of
America." as she phrases it, for she
came to this country when she was
but 11 months old. and lived her girl
hood at Scranton, Pa., where the
Welsh miners go Into the deeps of earth
after anthracite. .
"I was virtually brought up on ora

Just a little girl we used to go to the

Recently Miss Jordan has been sing

pressed her delight that the opening
of Portland's Public Auditorium should
be signalized by a devotion of the earn
ings of the Music Festival to the cause.

And that's about all except that
Miss Jordan holds the West as very

. Four promoters from Oklahoma last

week ago today, eager to put Portland

teeming with oil mayhap, mineral
wealth and agricultural possibilities.

deed, to shake the dust of this fair city
from their well-polished boots.
They left with the sanction of Dep

trict Judge Dayton, and as an official
memento of their stay in Oregon's me
tropolis, they left behind them a sol

the vv ebfoot state.
The promoters were permitted to
leave yesterday after they had repaid
to four Portland men sums of money
they had secured on vague contracts to
locate the Intended Investors on rich
Indian lands of Oklahoma. They were
arrested Monday after complaint had
been made by W. II. Unsworth and
Victor Johnberg.

The way that charming soubrette,
Miss Hazel Boyd, leads the Ginger
Girls through the evolutions of an
intricate drill is an inspiring sight
to men in uniform, and those who
want to be, and at the close of the
musical comedy, In Allah's Gar
den," the company is compelled to
take encore after encore. In the
few days since the opening Dorothy
Raymond, the prima donna she of
the sweet human-timbered voice
has already won a warm place in
the hearts of our visitors. We be
lieve this is the best offering ever
made to our patrons in the way of
clever dancing and sparkling songs
seasoned with dashes of clean
fun and humor.
And right after the matinee to
day and the performance this
evening McElroy and his full band
will give two special patriotic con
certs in which Anita Hall will take
a leading part.
These are free to you as are
the picnic grounds and all the com
forts that go to make this the
Playground of Portland.
Dancing all afternoon and
evening. Swimming,, and listen! -that
thrilling ride The Blue
Streak and the restful, inspiring
Mystic River are now better than
ever ready to care for you and
yours.
Have a happy Fourth come to
the Oaks first. i.
