M MEAN THE END
ndications Point to Termina
tion of Sailors' Strike.
WORK RESUMED BY SOME
men will not bring; vessels here because
they are satisfied they would be unable
to load them. Close down of mills means
suspension of operations at logging camps,
and results will be serious and far-reaching.
Millmen are inclined to be pessimistic,
saying the strike will doubtless be con
tinued, as the Shipowners' Association has
determined not to give in. Chief of Po
lice Chrlstensen has guaranteed the mill
men that he will protect all vessels that
may arrive to load from any violent dem
onstration on the part of the strikers, and
the Mayor has determined, if necessary.
to ask the Governor to send state troops
to preserve order. Union men say they
11 not molest nonunion vessels. They
seem satisfied they have won the strike,
but the millmen say otherwise.
lilpowucrs Believe Backbone I
btrike Is Broken on Account ot
Xack of Popular Favor.
Loading the Korea.
With the departure of the steamer
Johan Poulsen yesterday for San Fran
cisco all further trouble along the
water front is believed to have ceased.
The attack of lust Tuesday evemns
pained the strikers so much censure
tout they have discontinued all further
attempts at intimidation along that
line.
Captain Lcvison before sailing; re
placed the positions of the men wound
ed in the bloody affray of last week
with others from this port and expe
rienced not the slightest difficulty in
so doing, and thereby was able to take
his vessel to sea without any trouble.
Prospects for the sailors in the strike
they have inaugurated are not of the
brightest for the reason that princi
pally the demands they have made are
unpopular with the public, and unless
a strike is backed by popular favor it
has small chance of being successful.
Along the water front the cause of
the sailors is espoused in very few in
stances, for the workers along the
docks do not sympathize with the
strikers to any great extent for the
reason that the cause of the walkout
or strike is looked upon as unreason
able. Sailors on the coasting vessels,
both steam and sailing, were making as
high as 100 a month and more, which
is greater than the salary commanded
by the average mate, and scarcely any
of the longshoremen could come within
hailing distance of this figure.
According to local persons familiar
with water-front conditions it will be
essentially necessary for the sailors to
make some material concession in the
very near future if they hope to pre
serve their organization, for already
dissension has cropped out and unless
something is done they will be left
without a union in a very short time.
A crew of supposedly union men was
yesterday secured to load the Orientals
liner Korea at San Francisco for the
Orient, which is looked upon as the be
ginning of the end inmarine circles.
The Korea has been tied up for sev
eral weeks and the securing of a work
ing crew to load the vessel is regard
ed as the first sign of weakening on
the part of the union.
IjOcally the strike has not had any
" great effect except for the delayed ar
rival of several of the coasting fleet,
but as most of these vessels are re
ported to be on their way to this port
the situation is not at all critical. The
F. A. Kilburn and the Roanoke will
shortly roach Portland from the south,
and both are manned by nonunion
crews. This fact may make it neces
sary to demand police protection on
the arrival of the vessels, but since the
Jnhan Toulsen affair it is not believed
that the sympathizers of the sailors
will resort to nny more of the same
tactics, for they lost too much ground,
as far q popular favor Is concerned, in
that affair.
rive gnnss of stevedores went to the
Pacific Mail dock thin afternoon and be
gan to load the big liner Korea, which.
it is announced, will Ball for the Orient
on ednesday. This means that the
Korea will not go out in ballast, con
trary to the announcement of Friday
nifht.
The Pacific Mail officials explain that
they have ".0 carloads of Eastern freight
that they contracted to carry to the Orl
ent and that this will be taken accord
ing to the agreement.
The Panama liner. San Jose, belonging
to the same company, .will sail within
the next few days, and she also is des
tined to carry a cargo of Kastern freight,
contracted for before the present labor
troublp commenced. Botli of thene ships
will be loaded by regular uniln Steve
dore. the City Front Federation-offering
no objection.
?0 CARRY PROVISIONS VNORTH
Harold Dollar Chartered to Relieve
Ice-Bound Fleet.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 16. Provisions
for the 350 men of the whaling fleet Ice
bound in the Arctic all Winter are to be
sent from here at the end of this month.
The steamer Harold Dollar has been char
tered by the various concerns Interested
in the vessels to carry the stores. Some
time ago the news was brought hat the
men were well supplied with food, but
about a month ago information came from
the imprisoned whalers that the stock of
food was alarmingly low.
Board Surveys Schooner Stanford.
ASTORIA, Or., June 16. Special.) This
morning a survey was made of the dis
abled barkentlne Jane L. Stanford by a
board consisting' of P. I Cherry, of this
city; Captain Crowe, - of Portland, and
Captain Morrison, master of the schooner
A. F. Coats. The survey was to deter
mine the extent of the Injuries sustained
by the barkentlne in the collision with an
unknown steamer off the mouth of the
river on last Tuesday night; and had no
reference to the circumstances surround
ing the accident. The board found that
bowsprit, foremast, foretopmast, fore top
gallantmast, main topmast, lower topsail
yard, fore royal yard and skysail yard
must be renewed: that the vessel's stem
is badly damaged, but can be repaired.
and much of the gear and a portion of
the sails must be replaced. The damage
sustained will not exceed &000, and all
the repairs can be made here.

700,000 feet of lumber.
SHOOTS TO WARN PICKETS
CAPTAIN OF STEAM SCHOONER
FIRES ON THE MEN.
ATTEMPT TO LOAD STEAMERS
Slatle Mills at Aberdeen Will Try
With Two Vessels.
ABERDEEN, Wa.sh.. June 16. An at
tempt will be made by the West Slade
Mill on Monday morning to load the
steamers Centralla and Newburg. which
have been lying here almost a week.
There are lots of men anxious for work,
but afraid of trouble with union sailors.
Mayor Undstrom has agreed to provide
all the protection possible in case of trou
ble. Deputy Collector of Customs J. Dorn
today fined P. Hansen $2o0 on account of
the midnight attack upon the schooner
Fearless in the lower harbor on the night
of June 2. The launch which took the
aimed party to the schooner was the
Waterboy, owned by Hansen. The fine is
for a violation of inland rules to prevent
collision of vessels, sections 3 and 4, $00
being against the master and $200 against
the owner, the boat having been navi
satcd without lights between 11 and 12
o'clock at night.
Strikers Endeavor to Intimidate the
Crew of the Brunswick and Are
Put to Flight by Skipper.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 16. Captain
Ellefson, of the steam schooner Bruns
wick, fired seven shots last night at five
union pickets who steamed out to his
vessel to investigate his nonunion crew.
The shots were fired as a warning to
keep the pickets away from the Bruns
wick and no one was hit: The launch
used by the Sailors' Union went out at
11 o'clock last night to where the
Brunswick lay at the foot of Stuart
street. Andrew Keincr was in charge,
and there were also a coxswain and
three others on board. When they ap
proached the Brunswick Captain Ellefson
warned them away and fired with
rifle when they paid no heed. The shots
went wild and the union men withdrew
This is the second time shots have
been fired during the present trouble.
Yesterday pickets went out to a steamer
off Sausallto and when the officers of the
vessel turned a hose on them they re
piled by firing.
As the days pass and the tie-up
shipping along the waterfront continues
the feeling increases among the striking
sailors and locked-out stevedores that the
lumbermen hold the key to the situation.
The advance in the price of lumber is
cited as one reason why the increase
in wages demanded by the Sailors' Union
should be granted. The seamen argu
that the shipowners can well afford to
grant their demands when they are reap
ing a double harvest from increased
freight rates and the raise in lumber
prices.
The rise in prices is generally attributed
to the greater cost of logs. The increase
in the price of logs is $1 for flooring.

SCHOONER WAND IS ASHORE
While on Her Way to Portland Ves
sel Runs Aground.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 16. The
steam schooner Thomas Ia Wand is fast
ashore at Bolinas, a point near the
northern entrance of San Francisco
harbor. The schooner Alpha went to
her assistance and in the course of the
efforts to pull the vessel off the shore,
she als went aground. The tug Relief
succeeded in pulling the Alpha off the
beach, but all efforts to get the Wand
off have failed.
Both the Alpha and the Thomas L.
Wand are owned by the Olsen & Ma
honey Company, of this city. The Wand
is a new vessel and is commanded by
Captain William V. Olsen, and was on
her way to Portland when she struck.
The Thomas I Wand was pulled off the
bar at high tide and arrived here tonight
in tow. Her stern post and rudder are
gone and there is about eight inches of
water in her hold.
MILLS CLOSED AT ABERDEEN
Strike Causes Shutdown of Cray's
Harbor Concerns.
ABERDKKX, Wash., June 16. That the
seamen's strike Is certain to result in
great commercial loss to this city seems
assured. Tonight two large mills were
forced to close down and others are pre
paring to do the same.
Four mills are already seriously affected
and other millmen say they are apt to
become involved shortly. Gray's Harbor
depends upon steam schoomvs to ship out
her lumber product, aggregating by water
approximately 20,000,000 feet monthly. Mill-

fnclals of the Indian Ofhce, the ten at
torneys who are scheming to divide up
J50.000 of the money which Congress ap-

MORE FUXDS FOR IRRIGATION
Washington Allotted $700,000 Ad
ditional Oregon to Get Increase.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, June 16: Representative jou-s
today secured allotment of $700,000 ad
ditional out of the reclamation iu
for use on Government Irrigation
works in Eastern Washington, $253,
000 going to the. Tieton'projeot to con
struct a high line canal. This with the
$1,000,00) heretofore allotted, will com
plete this project. Heretofore $750,000
was allotted for the Sunnyside pro
ject and Mr. Jones gets $350,0J0 addl-
ional, which will permit the construc
tion of permanent dams and neaa
works, where only temporary struc
tures were contemplated.
The remaining $100,00) goes to irri
gate lands of wnite settlers on tne
Yakima reservation. These additional
allotments are made possible by reason
of the fact that public land receipts for
the current year will exceed the depart
ment's estimate by $3, 2o0, 000, which
means that just this much more money
is available for allotment in addition
to the apportionments heretofore made.
Senator Fulton today telegraphed D.
C. Henny, district engineer at Port
land, asking what amounts in addition
to previous allotments can be imme
diately used to advantage on Oregon
irrigation projects. When Mr. H'enny's
reply Is received. Senator Fulton will
endeavor to secure a part of this
$3,000,000 for Oregon, whose aggregate
allotments are comparatively small to
date.

NOTE The above is a sample of what we have to and will do from now on in preparing our business for our
large new store building now being erected at our old stand. Fifth and Alder streets. We will occupy two floors,
JOO feet front on Fifth street. We also will occupy the two upper floors of a three-story brick we will erect on the
ground adjoining, now occupied by a restaurant and saloon. This building Is 50 feet front, 100 feet deep. We are
now open to receive proposals for the leasing of the ground floor of this building. Important announcements re
garding this ladies' big garment store, which will have a big factory in connection, will be made in a few days.
Suffice here to say that experts who have examined the plans', equipment and proposed methods of our coming
great store have pronounced them far superior to anything of the kind that has EVER been on the Coast.
