STRIKE OF MARINE
IS
Engineers Authorized to Re
turn to Private Ships.
WHOLE COAST AFFECTED
Portland Surplus of Men May F.e
Drawn Upon to Fill Fosion?
at Other Points.
The artike ot marine work' .rs came
to a practical end yesterd y on the
81st day of its existence, -when the
Portland branch of the Marine En
gineers' Beneficial association was
authorized to return to 'work on pri
vately owned vessels. This ruling
was received from San 'Francisco and
applies to the entire r. oast. The re
turn of union engineers to work on
ehippinB-board vesjelj was author
ized several weeks as.
Though three 'marilime unions on
the Pacific coaa t are still out on
Ftrike. no diffis uhy is expected in
filling all availub'.e places in every
department of staamerd operating: in
both the off-J tore and coastwise
trades.
The three s -iking- unions are said
to be stronger ; at otner Pacific ports
than at Por-.-land. where - about ten
applications have been received for
every posit,'. on filled, but if sufficient
unlicensed men cannot be obtained
at San Francisco and Seattle, the
Portland nurplus will be drawn upon
to fill the vacant places.
Settlement la Expected.
Thou'g.h no official word to this ef
fect Iips been received by the local
officRr of the .altars' 'un'on, marine
fireriwsn, oilers' and watertenders'
union, and the marine cooks' and
et.wards' union, it is generally ex
pected by the officers and members
ef these organizations that a settle
ment of some kind between the ship
operators and the unions will be.
reached within a few divi
"The lockout is effective in as full
force as ever," said Jack Rosen, Busi
ness agent of the sailors' jnion, yes
terday, "and everything i3 lovely."
Frank P. Dean, representative of
th. marine cooks' and stewards'
union, said that the steward were
still "stickinjr out" and tuat ha ex
pected word from headquarters today
or tomorrow. Officers ot the fire
men's union were also expentiiVT v. or l
from headqu liters authorizi lg them
to return to work on privately owned
vessels.
The settlement of the long-drawn-out
marine strike followed immedi
ately upon the failure of negotiations
between the ship owners' associations
of this coast and the union represen
tatives at San Krancrsco, and the de
termination on the part of the op
erators to put the coastwise fleet of
steam schooners into commission
with whatever qualified men were
available.
Lumber Mllln to Benefit.
locally, the settlement of the strike
will be felt Immediately in the move
ment of the large strtcka of lumber
that have accumulates! at the Colum
bia river mills which depended upon
water transportation for the move
ment ot their product, and in the re
opening of many ef the ini:'a 'hat
were forced to close down when their
storage space w&s filled. The re
opening of the mills will a:3 furnish
employment to hundreds of men in
the logging camps.
The congestion of general merchan
dise awaiting water transporta n
between Portland and California,
which existed from the beginning of
the strike until a short time ago. has
been relieved by the resumption of
their former runs by the passenger
and cargo steamers of the Admiral
line and the San Krancisco & Port
land Steamship companies. These
vessels, giving Portland two sailings
or more a week to San Francisco and
southern California ports, have been
carrying full cargoes both direc
tions, and have moved practically all
of the general cargo offering. The
lumber congestion, however, has been
awaiting the reappearance of the
team schooners.
3 VESSELS GO TO SEATTLE
Craft Are Believed to Have Estab
lished Marine Record.
By an unusual coincidence, three
ocean-going vessels. left Portland yes
terday for Seattle, probably for the
first time in history. Those depart
ing for the sound port were the
motorship Kennecott. of the Williams
line; the steamer Robin Adair, of
the Isthmian line, and the Japanese
Hteamer Mandasan Maru of the Mitsui
fleet. The Kennecott was the only
one of the trio carrying freight from
Portland for Seattle discharge.
The steamer Robin Adair, following
the practice of the Isthmian line ves
sels, called in at Portland on her way
around from the Atlantic coast to
discharge inbound cargo, and is going
on to Seattle to discharge the last
of her west-bound freight and start
loading for the return trip. She will
bo here again in a few days to loaa
east-bound freight.
The Mandasan Maru is a Japanese
tramp steamer which brought general
freight from the orient to San Fran
cisco and Portland and is groine; back
to Japan with wheat from Portland
and lumber from Puget sound. She
finished loading her Portland freight
yesterday and left for Seattle to com
plete her cargo.

CROP CONDITIONS GOOD
Saskatchewan Said to Have Perfect
Season and Yield Promises to
Be Above Normal. '
In the face of the favorable crop re
port, comlnr from variou. .action, of the
country the quotations on wheat dropped
from 1 to S cents a bushel at the noon ses
sion of the Merchant.' Exchange yester
day, in this respect reflecting- the drop
which was registered by the Chicago grain
market.
The bid price of all grades of wheat ex
cept hard white dropped 2 cents a bushel
here. Hard white registered a drop of
but 1 cenfe
A result of the drop the bid price on
wheat for July delivery ranged from 11.14
to 11.08. for August delivery from 11.11 to
11.04 and for September delivery from 11.11
ig- i.u.. - i
The Merchants Exchange received a
wire from Moose Jaw. Saskatchewan, yes
terday, which announced that southeastern
Saskatchewan has had a perfect season to
date and If the crop escapes rust It will be
ar above normal. The weather there was
aid to be cool and favorable.
The weekly weather crop report re
ceived by th. Merchants' Exchange yes
terday .aid:
"Corn needs rain badly in much of the
Ohio valley, but timely and very beneficial
rains occurred in the Mississippi valley,
particularly In Illinois. Winter wheat
yields continue disappointing as threshing
progresses, although they are better than
expected in some sections, particularly in
Nebraska. Early spring wheat is being
harvested on the northern great plains.
The hot weather ripened the corn too
rapidly although the heads are filling very
well in Montana."
The official report of wheat and flour
shipped from the United States received
from Chicago yesterday announced that
June shipments aggregated 32.187,000. This
makes the total for the season 366,000.000
bushels compared to 219.646,000 bushels for
the previous year.
?he summary of weather and crop con
ditions In Oregon for the week ending
July 19, Issued by the department of agri
culture said:
"Except for low clouds la the morning
In western counties there was very little
cloudiness. The week was practically
without rain. Seasonable temperature pre
vailed. Drying northerly winds were a
feature In. some sections. Streams con
tinue to fall, but there la no complaint of
lack of water for Irrigation.
"Cereals Harvest of winter ahul I.
well under way In most of the principal
growing counties. Good harvest
Weather prevails. Early spring wheat and
oats are ripening rapidly. In unirrigated
districts small grain crops that are not
mature are suffering anm.n-hor frnm
drought. Corn is making good growth,
but needs rain. Sweet corn is in the mar
ket in Umatilla county.
T"ruit Apricots and early pears,
peaches and apples are ripening. Cherries,
raspberries and loganberries continue plen
tiful in most localities. Blackberries are
setting well.
"Meadows, pastures, ranges and live
stock -J- Good haying weather prevailed.
Cutting of the first crop of alfalfa Is com
plete except In some elevated districts, and
cutting of the second crop is complete In
some southern sections and Is under way
In most eastern counties. Cutting of the
first crop of clover Is nearing completion
in the Willamette valiey. Considerable
hay Is being baled. Pasturage Is becoming
very dry. but there is little complaint of
lack ot feed and stock continues to do well
except over limited areas.
"Miscellaneous Hops are doing well as
a rule. Late potatoes need rain but thus
far have not suffered seriously. Truck
crops are generally good, but wiil need
rain soon. Early cabbage Is In market."

HAY MARKET IS REPORTED DULL
New Crop Valley Timothy Goes at a Re
duction In Price.
With the new crop comlny in and re
ports of la rye yields In various sections of
the northwest the hay market Is compara
tively dull. This is not an unusual condi
tion for this season of the year however,
and it is considered there are possibilities
of better market conditions later.
The arrival in the Portland market of
some of the new crop of valley timothy
has resulted In quotations on that variety
of hay goLr.s; down from 24 a ton to S19
to $20 a ton.
Quotations on other grades of hay re
main unchanged.
A communication issued by th depart
ment of agriculture says of thjs hay market:
"The movement of new hay in several
sections is from ten days to two weeks
earlier than usual and many buyers are
holding- off buying until they can supply
their needs from the new crop.
"Eastern markets are very quiet and
demand is limited. Farmers close to New
York are refusing- to sell at current quo
tations because of the drought damage
and the expectation of higher prices Other
markets were slightly higher1 because of
extremely light receipts and but few no
tices of country loadings. Stocks of old
hay In the markets are very small but
dealers continue to buy for their immediate
needs only."
A diagram Issued by the department of
agriculture shows that the average price
of alfalfa hay throughout the country is
10 lower than It was a year ago and the
average price of timothy hay has dropped
$ IS.50 during the same period.
TOMATOES ARE MORE PLENTIFUL
Honey Dew Melons Now on the Market
-New Apples In.
Oregon tomatoes are now coming into
the market in larger quantities and In a
Short time now there will be an ample sup.
ply to take care of alt demands. The quo
tation on Oregons is now $2.50$;2.75 and
It is expected that thee prices will drop
shortly as the tomatoes become more plen
tiful.
. Shipments of melons yesterday included
a quantity of honey dews. They went
readily at 12.25.
Dinuba and Turlock cantaloupes are now
on the market in quantities and are sup
planting in a large measure the Imperial
valley melons, the supply of which is rap
Idly becoming exhausted. Receipts yester
day included one car of Turlocks. They
went at $1.75 for flats to $3.30 for ponies
and $4 for 4oe.
New apples are now coming In In small
quantities. Early cooking varieties from
The Dalles were quoted on the street yes
terday at from $2 to $3.."0. lt was an

Large Quantity of Wheat Reported
Bought, by Exporters for Ship

CHICAGO, July 20. Big receipts and
possibility ' or a railroad embargro against
grain shipments to Chicago led to down
ward swings today In the price of wheat
Closing quotations were heavy, 1 to 8
cents net lower. September, $1.25 to
1126 and December $1.29' to ?1.20Vi.
Corn lost 4c to mlr and oats c
to H461SC. Provisions closed 5 cents
lower to a like advance.
With estimates current that 2000 car
loads of wheat were on track here un
loaded and with new arrivals today to
taling 654 cars, the wheat marke. was
on the decline during the greater part of
the session. Continuance of elevator labor
troubles was a factor In making the stor
age situation acute and in raising he
question whether a temporary embargo
might be required to relieve the conges
tlon. On the other hand, exporters bought
800,000 bushels here and New York ad
vised of 250,000 bushels sold for export
to Germany.
Support was lacking, however, and the
close was near the bottom. -
Auspicious crop reports had a bearish
effect on the corn market. Oats declined
with corn, although firm for a while, ow
ing to exaggerated reports of export busi
ness. Provisions were steadied by assertions
that Germany had purchased 3,000,000
pounds of lard. .
