Ther will be a meeting or Packlng Houae Tesmsters' union at I p. m. to vote on the sympathetic strike. Sensational reports that there was a break In the ranks of th packers' were on everybody's tongue at the stockyards district It was openly stated that Bchwarschlld and Sulsberger and E. A. Cudahy were ready to sign an agreement with tha butcher workmen rather than to engage In a prolongation if th strike.

Mr, Long expressed himself as in fa vor of grading th logs and having common scaler, if disinterested persons I could be secured- that would have tha mutual confidence of th mill man- as I well as th loggers. He did not see why there should be any 111 feeling between tha loggers and mill men, and that an association of th former would prove a mutual- advantage to all concerned, If properly conducted. . I Tells ot Bouad Combine. F. M. Duggan. manager of th Puaet Sound Logging A Brokerage eompany. stated that th present organisation had been In effect ainca January 1, and had been satisfactory to tha mill men aa well as the loggers. Th logs ar graded -and scaled by the . company, and ther had been no misunderstanding with tha mills. Th Puget sound or ganisation was different from the one Intended to be formed, here, aa tha loggers sold their output to th broker age company, permitting it to mak a smsll profit In selling th product direct to th mills, Mr. Duggan stated that tha average price received for th dlf farent classes of logs on ths sound was I (.11 per thousand. Tavors Common Scaler. Mr. Long stated that red Ar logs, which ' brought such low prices her, wer worth fully as much as th No. grade of loga on th sound. Ha also stated that where logs wer graded ther wer no culls to throw out,, as Is ins rui nere. E. EL Brehm.of th Brehm Logging company or Tacoma, told of the good accomplished by tha loggers' association on tha sound, but It took some tlm to reach the present satisfactory condition. After some discussion It was not con aldered th proper thing to attempt an organisation unless 7i per cent ofthe output was represented. Tha following resolution by Oeorge S. Long was unanimously adopted: "Resolved, That It Is th aenos of this meeting that ther should be organised on th Columbia river a loggers sasocl tlon, to mors Intelligently discuss all questions pertaining to the logging In dustry, and that a committee of four be appointed to adopt' articles and bylaws for such an association, and to extend an Invitation to all loggers tributary to th Columbia river to become members.
