CAUSE TROUBLE IN UNLOADING
CARLOS THIS MOHNING
A PINE VICSSEL.
IS
The steam schooner Carlos arrived
In late last evening from San Fran
cisco with seven hundred tons of
brick and building material for the
W S. Chandler building, a few car
loads ofmaterial for the C. A. Smith
Company and a number of passen
gers Tho majority of the passen
gers are en route to Grays Harbor
and Seattlo from San Francisco, the
Carlos going o Grays Harbor'to take
on lumber.
This morning, a little trouble was
encountered in unloading the Carlos
when tho longshoremen started a
small sized strike which lasted only
an houi or so. It seems that Dade
Haines, who had the contract for
haui.ng the brick from tho wharf to
tho Chandler building, had engaged
two helpers -to expedite the handling
f 'he wagons and loading them
from the slings. The longshoremen
immediately protested and quit work,
bf Capt. Roberts, known here as
"Scantling Bob," quickly became
master of the situation, so that the
d lay was reduced to a minimum.
The Carlos is one of the best steam
schooners on the coast. She Is 220
feet long and Is built for handling
freight rapidly. .Sho also has good
Passenger accommodations.
' Scantling Bob," who formerly ran
In hero on the Emily, was surprised
last night when he came In by the
amount of water on the bar. It was
far from flood tide but the least ho
ftard was 24 feet. As a result, it Is
1 K. ' that the Carlos will ply in here
r lUlnrly in the near futuro, carry
Ins umber from tho local mills.
f-'ie will sail from .here for Grays
Harbor to-morrow afternoon. She
H return hero soon with more
frf'?ht from San Francisco.
