tru Treat With Kea.
After the seance with the union com
mittee Manager Fuller stated to a rep
resentative of The Journal that the
company had never refueed J treat
with lta men; that the company la open
at any or all times to a request from Its
employee for higher wages. - -r
"Do , you require your employee to
come to you Individually and to per
sonally register their request for higher
wages waa aaked. . , - ,
"Not at all.' waa tha answer. "If
our employes hold a meeting and elect
a committee to come and make a re
quest for higher wages, the company-)
win treat with such a committee. But
thla la a different matter. The .union
doea-not represent our men. ' It makes
reports to persons thousands of miles
away, who are In no way Interested in
the company or Its employes.".
Regarding the etatement of Organiser
Burton that the car men of other cities
on the coast receive better pay than the
Portland car men. Mr. Fuller said that
he had never denied that such- ia the
case. The .cities about San Francisco
bay, he admitted, paid their employes
more. -.- -, - ;
Would Vet Confirm Sunei,
- When asked regarding a atreet rumor
that the company had been quietly
breaking in many new men In anticipa
tion of a etrike, Manager Burton aald
that he had' nothing to aay. Neither
would he confirm or deny the rumor
that these men were being held in re
serve under bonds of 150 to go to work
anywhere In Oregon that their services
might be required. '. When asked If the
rumor that the employee were not or
ganised efficiently enough to conduct
a successful strike, the official refused
to venture an opinion.
International Organiser Burton claims
that 8an Francisco, Los Angeles, Oak
land, San Jose, Sacramento and Stock
ton pay their carmen a ' higher wage
than la received in Portland.. Hla fig
ures are to the effect that In the
cities named the maximum - wage la
reached In the- third year of service,
while a motorman or conductor muat
labor for H yeara before-reaching -the
maximum of 17 cents an hour now on
the local wage schedule.- The minimum
for Portland la 11 cents an hour, while
for San Francisco, Mr. Burton says, it
Is li cents, for Los Angeles it cents,
for Sacramento It cents, for Stockton
ItVs cents, for San Jose II cents, for
Oakland II cents. In Los Angeles, Oak
land. . Sacramento and Ban Francisco,
moreover, the maximum la respectively
,- 1TH, 17 and 17 Ji cents an hour.
- Barton Bealea It. . v-r -"
Mr. Burton emphatically denies that
the streetcar company, has been break
ing In an unusually large number of
new' men. As to the union member
shin, it Is alleged by Secretary McKen-
ney to be about IS per cent of the entire'
working force of the railway company's
care.. ' " ; - .
H. - 3r McKenney, the secretary over
whose 'discharge ths whole trouble was
precipitated, had been In the employ of
the company but three months. He had
been on a regular run only one week
MoKenney formerly resided In Sacra
mento, California, where he waa sec-
I retaryyof -the Carmen'a-unlon there. Hl
denies that he came to Portland for the
purpose of aiding In the organisation of
the local carmen. -
The alleged generosity of the street'
car company In raising its employes'
wsges Is rldlouled by the men.
"The raise, Just handed fa does not
net the men more than IC cents a week
at the outside," said one today. . "The
company may have relsed wsges II per
cent during the past 10 years, but bow
about 'Its revenues? They have gone
up 108 per cant In that time.
As LIT.
Fuller if he 1 would take 10 per cent
more for the old Fifth street line than
he paid for It some years ago. No, we
have done bur ahare In building up the
buelneea of the company and we want
some small -ahare In the' prosperity
thereof." . .. , , ;
'. Figures TsTlslesdlsg, BTe Say. '
Manager Fuller declares that the fig-
urea aubmltted by Organiser Burton aa
to the wagea of carmen In California
cities are mlaleadlng In that they "do.
not ahow. the actual average received.
The 17 H -cent rate In Oakland, for ex
ample, la paid to only a few car men
who run tralna on the Key route. In
San Jose the minimum rata of IS cents
la nothing more nor lesa than a flat
rate end, he declares, the local carmen
receive aa much or nearly aa much on
an average as is cents.
Then, 111 Los
ABIelM in minimum
Is II cents, while In Portland It Is 11
cents, but In Los -Angeles the wages
do not rise aa rapidly with the term
of service as they do In Portland.
Here Is a city, says Manager Fuller,
which requires II years of service to
teach the maximum, which he puta at
is cents. The result le that the sec
ond, third and fourth year men get
lesa In Los Angelee than In Portland.
A similar condition exists . In Sacra
mento, says Mr. Fuller.
Manager Fuller also submitted to
The Journal a scale of. the wsges paid
In other northwestern cities. The fig
ures showed the - minimum paid In
Spokane to be 10 cents an hour. In
Seattle to be II cents. In Tacdma to
be 10 cents. In Victoria to be 10 cento.
In all of these cities there Is e slldine
scale which extends over a long period
of years and while the maximum la In
some cases ; higher... the . average,.! alls
below the average of Portland.
The probable streetcar atrlke is tha
talk of the atreeta today. The carmen

Promlnsnt Eat Oregon
t ian Secures a Famous
Weber Piano Alaster
' ' piece. -
Musicians snd lovers of the beautiful
have taken great interest in the superb
11.600 Weber Grand piano that waa ex
hibited recently at Ellers piano House.
The above Is a sketch of the Instrument,
although the beauty of its lines and
markings csnnot possibly be conveyed
In a mere drawing or photo. The piano
Itself is of the rvnowned Weber make,
possessing the wonderful Weber tone,
which bns been the delight of the dis
criminating musician ever slnoe the
first masterpieces of Albert Weber Sr.
made their appearance. In power and
volume, combined with a purity, sweet
ness and sympathy, the Weber ton ex
cels anything produced in Grand or
Upright pianos in this country and
abroad, and coupled with this Is the
Sroverblal and simply marvelous Weber
urablllty. There are today In dally
nsaji Oregon, Weber pianos that have
been used constantly for over 16 years.
But, while the "beauty of Its tone is
aa It ahould be, the main feature of this
elegant piano; the case Itself, is worthy
of extended description. .The design is
of that graceful and yet massive char
acter which distinguishes the Weber
product in everything they do, and the
case is -made of built-up layers- Mar
blewood, technically known as Dyros
pyros Kursli, which Is native In the
British Burmaa, the Andaman Islands
(a chain of ialanda to the east of Ben
gal), and occasionally it ia also found
in certain parts of the Philippines. It
Iiroperly belongs to the ebony family,
s very hard and of course quite ex
pensive. The richness of the markings
of deep brown and almost black on a
background of a very rich- natural tan
color under the new. French or dull
finish. Instead of - the usual glossy
American finish is simply beyond de
scription. The instrument is not to be
delivered until late in the fall, and it la
hoped, therefore, that alterations In the
new store will be far enough under way
before that time so that this exquisite
piano may be placed on exhibition oqoe
more. where all can see It.
The piano was purchased by Mr. W.
M. Siusher. a wealthy sheep rancher, for
his new home in Pendleton. Mrs, Siusher
is a very accomplished musician and no
doubt this Weber piano will prove an
Important factor In the social and' mus
ical life of the One and prosperous little
inland city.'
