A WAfflNG GAME
Indications Arc That Boats Will
Be Tied Up In
definitely. . It looks a though the O. R. N. Co.
haa abandoned tha idee of operating the
steamships luder and. Columbia for soma
time to come, at laaat This morning all
tba employes ' at tha Alnaworth and
Alaska docks' war paid off excepting four
at tha former and two at tha latter.
There ware about 60 men employed
permanently at the two docks, filling po
sitions aa olerks, sallmen. watchman, etc
When vassal artved tha force was in
creased to ' about, lit men, the greater
number, ef whom were 1 longshoremen.
Those retained on the payroll are two
alert and four watchman.
. LOOK DESERTED.
" The docks presented a deserted ap
pearaao this morning, tha usual noise
and stir giving place to a general still
ness that gives one a lonely reeling. The
impression among thoso discharged la
thai tha big ooast liners lying alongside
tho docks will remain there for an in
definite length of time. They believe
that tha company la preparing to fight
tho Marine engineers' Association in
tho same maner as tho latter has lntro
duoed hat is a game of freeseout The
company, it la reported, la resourceful to
both bra ma and finance, and tha en
gineers lay claim to tho same featurea
of distinction. There la no doubt but
that a war to a, finish la on between the
opposing forces, , although neither side
is making any great ado over it.
- ; A THE SITUATION.
' Undoubtedly tha company could secure
non-union engineers, but whether the
boats oould bo operated in this manner
or not for any length of time Is prob
lematical. It la believed that tha engi
neer are making a move to form an alli
ance with longshoremen, and If this Is
brought about there would likely be an
other tieup before the vessels should
make many trips. - At least this is the
way the situation looks to disinterested
parties Who have been watching the
developments olosely.

GRAND JURY
FINDS NO REMEDY
FOR GRAFTING
(Continued from First Par-)
printed report. As to Mr. Fred Merrill:
Either he was mistaken in his accusa
tions or the grand jury did not bring out
the proofs for them from him. Mr. Mer
rill should b asked either to prove his
accusations or retract them. X, personal
ly, have not made a study of this matter,
but it la plain to be seen even to a blind
man that there has been grafting going on
for quite a while."
SHERIFF STORET DOESN'T CARE.
"1 have nothing-to say concerning the
grand Jury report. It ha a right to in
quire into whatever it aees fit, and this
It has svldently done, but It doesn t con
cern me an iota. I am an officer of the
law and am her to do my duty and I
am going to do it, grand jury or no grand
Jury. It Is not for me to say anything
about it Tho report ha now been mad
public, and let the people do the talking."
"How about Charley Lord?'
"Lord. Lord, I do not know such a
man: oh, yes ths reformer, that's so.
I do remember him, but it has been so
long sines I received a communication
from him that his name has eacaped my
memory for the present."
JUDGE SEARS' IDEA.
Judge Bears, who received their report,
begged to be excused from saying any
thing. He said It was not the function
of the court to express an opinion. If
there were any particular features of th
report that the court thought necessary
for Judicial atentlon it wonld be brought
to the attention of the District Attorney
at the proper time. But he did not In
timate that ho would do anything of the
kind wtth this report.
CHIEF KNOWS NOTHING.
Chief of Polloe McLauchlan. when In
terviewed this morning on the findings
of the grand Jury, was non-committal.
"Waa the grand jury justified In mak
ing the statement tha.t the special po
licemen had a graft of $1,000 a month?"
- "I don't know a thing about It."
"Is there any truth In the accusa
tion?" "I don't know."
"Are you aware that the specials are
collecting money from the fallen White -ohapel
women?"
"I don't know."
"If the grand jury had the evidence of
corruption that their report Inferred,
would It not have been the proper thing
to bring In come indictments?"
'It waa up to them; I dont know."
"Do you Intend to take some action in
reference to the specials to stop th
alleged graft?" - .
"I don't know." .

SPECIAL
SESSION
The Movement Not Dead
by Any Means
ONLY POLITICIANS
The Opposing What Is So Badly
Needed for the 1905
fair.
" The movement for a' special session of
the Legislature Is not dead. Opposition
to th project was subtly planned and ths
tactics were of no mean' order. When the
opposition came out with their chunks of
wisdom anent th legal phases, they ut
tered platitude that hav been known to
everyone who ha given attention to th
subject with common Information as to
the statutory smd constitutional require
ments In the premises. Th fact that tha
Legislature could vote for a Senator at a
special session was patent all of the time
prior to the publication of that fact. The
possibility that "fiat salaries" and the
initiative and referendum might be ef
fective without action by th Legislature
prior to the first of the year, was also
understood.
Ths situation appears to be that those
who urge that flat salaries ars effective
now, in view of the constitutional provis
ions, are not really favorable to the In
auguration -of flat salaries for the state
officials. The men who represent the
Secretary of State, and th Stat Printer
and other officers who are now drawing
Immense sums from the treasury, were
among those who opposed the flat salary
matter In the last campaign. They did
no.t want flat salaries then; they do not
want them now. If the matter go over to
the regular session, the State Printer, for
Instance, will .continue to draw the same
sums he draws now, with no power to re
duae them until the end of the term for
which he was elected.
REMAINS IN STATU QUO.
The need for the Lewis and Clark and
city charter legislation Is as Imperative
as It has been at any previous time.
Nothing has oocurred to alter the status.
If It was needed a, week ago, it is needed
now.
The constitution limits the special ses
sion to 20 days. If the session were called
to convene on a Wednesday, there would
be 13 days In which to transact business
of a special character, before a Senator
could be balloted for. If the election of a
Senator were injected int& the special
KtHsion, it would be simply because the
candidates for that position themselves
"ThTcetMrtrr ma hene"aricinnr ghwr
the special session that the Senatorshlp
would become Involved are proof that
those candidates will do It with disregard
for the Interests of the whole state.
It In claimed, that the saving In th
sums 'taken by the State Printer alone
during the four years, under a flat salary
regime, " would m.ore than equal the en
tire cost of the special session, which
would be no more than $15,000.
The Taxpayers' League will proceed to
prepare the petitions to the Governor, re
gardless of the recent utterances on the
subject The meeting In the directors'
room of the Alnsworth National Bank on
Tuesday afternoon, by the executive co'm
mltteo of the league, was determinative
of the attitude of the organization as that
of continued support of the special ses
sion. The members of the committee are: A.

OPERATORS TRY
TO ORGANIZE
Work ef. the Telejjrapliers' Union
1
at Washington.
WASHINGTON, Oct, 29. -A movement
to organic th telegraph operators of the
country, afflliat them with the American
Federation of Labor, and then announce
th principle and promulgate tha doc
trine of government, ownership of the
telegraph la deolared on reliable authority
to hav been in successful progress for
some month. .. ...
It I estimated that there are fully 100.
000 telegraph operator la the country.
Since th strlk of 1811 there has been no
organisation until th present movement.
A union was formed In' New York city
recently, which, it is declared, completes
the organisation of th operators In all
of th larger oUI of th country. Th
next move will b to bring the uanadlan
operators into the fold. The union
formed in New York nrolled4100 mem
bers out of 800 who attended the meeting.
The prediction was made, however, that
the organisation would grow rapidly
The speaker at th meeting-impressed
upon the operator present that strong
opposition might he expected from the
Western Union company. This was
based on the fact that this company Is
understood to have discharged operators
In its employ at various times for at
tempting to form union. The organisers
of the New York Union believed no op
position would b made to the organiza
tion of tb operator by the Postal Tele
graph company.
A movement to organise the Washington
telegraph operator la now on foot, th
preliminary meetings having been held
and a charter applied for some weeks
ago. ' The exact strength of the Washing
ton union ha not yet been announced,
and It 1 understood that the matter ha
been conducted, in th. most quiet man
ner possible on aocount of possible hos
tility from the employing companies.
On September St an International con
vention was held In Chicago, which was
attended by delegate from all parts of
the United State and Canada, and at
that time th international organlsatlo
was effected, with the following offloers:
J. J. McDonald, Chicago, president; M. J.
Reldy, Boston, first vice-president; K. A.
Douglas, Milwaukee, secretary and treas
urer, and an executive committee consist
ing of well-known operators from every
section of the country

U. W. Hall and many important matter
came up for consideration, although the

Fourth Vice-President Madsen was

question stated:
"The report in the morning paper In
reference to action we took arainst
the firm of Balfour. Guthrie ft Co. la a
misstatement of facts from beginning to
end. That firm pays identically the same
wages as any of the other exporter In
the city, or on th ooast for that matter.
They pay 35 cent an hour straight for
regular time and SO cent for overtime,
Sundays and holidays being included In
the latter. So far as wage are con

paper to the effect that the oompany he
represents pay las wages to longshore
men than any other firm In Portland. He
says:
"The report waa an absolat fabrica

foundation for It at all. We are paying
the regular wages of 35 cents aa hour and
50 cents for overtime.
