an estimated 65,000 workers, including
25.000 metal trade workers already out

by labor leaders to be the first general
strike ever held on the Pacific Coast, if
not in the country.
The metal trades workers struck for
higher wages than those contained In
the Macy award, effective until March

is a sympathetic one.
Support for the strikers came today
In the announcement of the Seattle
Timberworkers' Union that 3000 lumber
workers employed in and about half of
Seattle sawmills, lumber camps and
shingle mills, would quit work Thurs
day. Mills and lumber camps outside of

walkout develops into a state-wide
ttrike. it was said.
Firemen Kiot Affected.
The Seattle Union of Marine Firemen
announced today that its members
would not be affected by the general
etrike. The Sailors' Union of the Pa

and offshore sailors, has asked permis
sion of its international organization to
leave vessels Thursday. Marine cooks
and Bteward3 are also awaiting word
from international headquarters. The
plasters' Mates and" Pilots Union will
not participate in the strike.
Other developments today included:
Seattle echdola are to be kept open;
city authorities will operate municipal
light, water and other utilities, replac
ing any strikers with other men; pack
ers will operate their own plants and
retail markets; the city-owned street
car lines will operate, according to
Superintendent Thomas Murphine.
Mayor Hansen announced that these
would be maintained by the police. The
cooks' unions considered plans for op
erating sufficient "soup kitchens" to
feed 15,000 persons, if necessary, two
meals daily. Milk for babies and in

concerning these two means of com

Whether Seattle will walk after
Thursday morning was to be decided
ty the executive committee of the
etreetcar men's union tonight. Sanc
tion for the men to strike was asked
of their international officers and what
reply was given was not announced.
Should sanction be refused, the men, it
was said, would hesitate about for
feiting their life insurance and other
benefits arising from affiliation with
the international organization. Jitneys
will cease to operate, however, on
Thursday. And with gasoline service
stations closed, private automobile
owners probabily will not be able to

Published by Ai rangcmcnU)
LONDON, Feb. 4. (Special.) "Nearly
all the boys are picking winners." This
was the comment an American naval
officer made today while speaking of
the European brides whom American
sailors and soldiers are acquiring.
These bluejackets and Sammies who
have married English, Scotch or Irish
girls believe the home folks will be
more pleased with this variety than
with new relatives from continental
Europe. Several British ports, notably
Liverpool and Southampton, are con
gregating points for these brides, some
of whom are delayed in sailing for
America because of the shortage of ac
commodations. Several officers say that the highest
average of comeliness is among the
Irish brides. Few of the girls are of
the high-heeled variety, the majority
having efficient acquaintance with
household duties. The girls themselves
are unanimous in pronouncing Ameri
cans persistent and gallant sweet
hearts. Another batch of 15 new wives
has just sailed from Liverpool. One
said her husband had told her Indians
could still be seen on Broadway.

Shipment of Lumber to South Ex

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Feb. 4. Orders for wooden
ships on the Atlantic Coast and in the
South were suspended on the same
basis as those on the Pacific Coast.
Representative McArthur was assured
by the Emergency Fleet Corporation

cited on the Pacific Coast from the
fact that shipbuilding materials con
tinued to move from Western Oregon
to the South.
With . reference to this S. M. Evans,
of the division of cancellations, ad
justment and salvage of the Fleet Cor
poration, said: "We are transferring
lumber from the Pacific Coast to be
used in the place of pine-so as to re

French and German Delegates at
Berne Quarrel Violently Over
Blame for Starting War.
PARIS, Feb. 4. (By the Associated
Press.) The American Federation , of
Labor delegates, headed by Samuel
Gompers, stated tonight that they had
refused to attend the International
labor conference at Berne because the
delegation had been instructed by sev
eral of the American labor organiza
tions to present their demands to the
Paris peace conference, which already
has in view International labor proj
ects, and is not likely to be Influenced
by the Berne convention.
The statement asserts the belief that
the proposals of the Berne conference
will be "German made," and points out
that German labor has the right to
present its demands at the final peace
table.
Later Meeting; Possible.
The American labor delegates indi
cate that there is a possibility of meet
ing the German delegates after the
signing of the peace treaty, but that
meanwhile they will work with . the
peace conference and that the interna
tional labor committee will summ n
an inter-allied conference at Paris of
organizations not represented.
BERNE, Feb. 4. A violent rhetorical
duel between the French and German
Socialists marked the second sitting
last night of the International Labor
and Socialist Conference.
Otto .Wels, tno former military com
mander of Berlin, defended the German
position and said that the German So
cialists already had settled the ques
tion of responsibility for the war ' in
having taken all power from the
princes and kings. Wels accused Great
Britain of having killed 700,000 Ger
man women, children and old men by
the "hunger blockade."
Eisner la First Speaker.
Kurt Eisner, the Bavarian Premier,
was the first speaker on the pro
gramme for today.
Herr Wels argued that the German
Social Democrats should not be charged
with responsibility for the war. as
none of them had been members of the
government when the war began.

a: . fther propaganda was ordered to
day by the Senate after two hours of
tempestuous discussion, in which sev
eral Senators declared organizations
were plotting to overthrow the Amer

The Senate Judiciary sub-committee,

CASE STUDIED THREE HOURS
Attorney McGinn Makes Strong
Appeal in Client's Behalf.
INTENT INSTRUCTION GIVEN
Cnitcd States District Attorney
llaney Closes Appeal With Re
cital of YVar-Time Verse.
After being out but three hours and
l' minutes, of which time approxi
mately an hour was spent at dinner,
tt.e iury in the Federal Court espion
age case against Henry Albers, wealthy
Tacific Coast miller, returned a sealed
verdict at 7:50 la.-t night, indicating
that the Jurors were practically of one
mind when the case came to a close
at 1:10 in the afternoon.
Whether Albers has been found
guilty on any or all of the seven
counts against him will not be def
initely revealed until 10 o'clock this
morning, when Federal Judge Wotver
ton asain convenes court. The bitterly
contested case has been in progress
more than a week.
Jary Retires at 4:1.
Federal Judge 'VVolverton's instruc
tion to the jury began at 2 o'clock and
lasted until ;10. when the jury retired
to consider its verdict. Instructions
were issued to return a sealed verdict,
if agreement was reached, at the open
ing of court this morning at 10 o'clock.
In his charge to the jury Judge Wol
verton made It clear that the question
of intent must be settled in the minds
of the jurors beyond a reasonable
doubt, that the defendant intended
by his alleged eeditious utterances to
hamper America in the prosecution of
the war. The court reviewed the
charges contained in the indictment,
count by count.
"Each count sets out a separate and
distinct offense." said Judge Wolver
ton, "and calls for a distinct and sepa
rate verdict. Therefore you may find
the defendant guilty upon all the
counts, or not guilty upon all the
counts, or guilty upon one or more of
the counts and not gui.ty upon the
balance.
Armistice Xct Conslderr-d.
"This statute," referring to the espi
onage act, "was enacted obviously to
meet the war danger to the Govern
ment, danger arising within the body
of the people, rather than danger from
the enemy on the battle line, and Its
importance lies In the fact that it em
bodies the policy which the Govern
ment has dopted for Its protection,
particularly against Internal interfer
ence wilh its military operations and
war programmes."
Judge Wolverton made it clear that
the offenses charged -.vera committed,
if committed, when the United States
was at war with Germany, and the
.subsequent armistice should not be
considered by the Jury as affecting ila
deliberations.
I.a vr Permits Differences,
"It is not claimed that the defendant
actually brought about any insubor
dination or refusal of duty," said Judge
Wolverton, in referring to one of the
counts, "it is not claimed that he
brought about any disloyalty. The
charge is. that is. what he had In his
heart tliat It was his purpose and be
tried to bring it about, and these words
that the Government claims were
spoken. It is claimed, for that purpose;
and that Is what you have to decide.
"The :aw does not forbid differences
of opinion or reasonable discussion as
to the auses which Induced Congress
to declare war. nor as to the results
to be attained by war. nor at the end
of the war, nor any easonable and
tempered discussions and differences
of opinion upon any and all of the
measures adopted in carrying out the
war. The law is limited to making it
a crime to oppose by word o. act the
military measures taken by the United
States or under lawful authority by
the officers of the United Stages for
the purpose of prosecuting that war to
a successful end."
UrinkrnnrM Kirnr.
Judge Wolverton's reference to the
drunken condition of the defendant at
the time the alleged remarks were
uttered was as follows:
"Drunkenness neither excuses the
offense nor avo'ds the. punishment
which the law Inflicts, when the char
acter of the offense is ascertained and
determined, but evidence of drunken
ness is admissible tolely with refer
ence to the question of intent.
"The weight to be given to it is a
matter for the Jury to determine, and
It should be received rith great cau
tion and carefully examined in connec
tion with all the circumstances and
evidence in the case.
"You should discriminate between
the conditions of the mind merely ex
cited by Intoxicating drink and jet
capable of forming a specific intent
and purpose, and such a prostration of'
the faculties a renders a jian incapa
ble of forming the intent.
"If the intoxicated person has the
capacity to form the Intent and con
ceives and executes such intent, it Is
no ground for reducing the degree of
his crime tha' lie was too drunk to
