.THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND; SUNDAY ' MORNING, JUNE 6, 1915. 8
LONGSHOREMEN AND
THEIR EMPLOYERS TO
' DISCUSS NEW SCALE
Heads of Union and of the
Steamship Line to Meet in
Seattle Tomorrow, - . :
PORTLAND IS INTERESTED
Demands of This , Port lor guilty
'; With Paget Bound Brian About .
Conference.
' Representatives of the waterfront
employers and employes from points
all along- the coast will meet this
'. Week to attempt to frame a new
scale of wages for which freight
can be handled. .
If 'this city is given the ' leave to
enjoy its natural advantages through
equitable freight costs a winning
fight for the commerce of the Pacific
- ocean can be started here.
T. V. O'Connor, president of the
International Longshoremen's associ
ation; J. A.. Madsen, secretary-treasurer
of the association, and John
Kean, president of , the Pacific coast
division of that body, are to be in
Seattle , tomorrow morning- to com
mence the long series of negotia
tions which it .is hoped will bring
about this desired end. .
To consult with them team ship
representatives from all parts of the
coast are headed towards Seattle.
Later on sesrlons ' will be held here
and probably at San Francisco.
Yesterday the Chamber of Com
merce was the dining place of a num.
mer of these men. Captain J. H.
Bennett, vice president of the Yale
Harvard line; K. C. Ward, general
manager of the Pacific Coast Steam
ship ; company; Captain J. S. Gibson,
head ' of the International Stevedor
ing company, with branches all
through the northwest; C. W. Cooke,
head of the American-Hawaiian
(Steamship company on -the Pacific
eoast; C. W. Maglll of Seattle and
C? 0. Kennedy of Portland, agents for
the ; American-Hawaiian Steamship
company, and W. D. Wells, agent for
' the San Francisco & Portland Steam
ship company, made up the party.
- Different rphases of the situation
confronting the employers were dis
cussed, i
Within the past year organizations
ef both employers and employes have
been perfected just for such an emer
gency. Representatives of each as
sociation will be empowered to act.
Due to this fact both sides expect
to be able to reach a decision Quickly
and without trouble.
When O'Connor, the president of
the International, was here three
months ago, he told the representa
tive of the Chamber of Commerce
who waited on him that he realised
that conditions in the north Pacific
were not Just . "
"There is a feeling of unrest among
both mon and shippers which shows
that something is wrong," he said.
"I am coming back with the inten
tion of removing this feeling and
leaving in its place one of quiet and
satisfaction."
"Conditions have changed all over
the country and people look at things
like this in an altogether different
light," said one steamship man yes
terday. "The labor interests are go
ing to find that we are just In our
contentions and that we are asking
the relinquishment of nothing that
they have gained in the pest. W
only ask fair treatment.". ,
SNAKE TOO FAST FOR TEAL
Steamer Unable to Stem Current,
' So Will Make Kennewick Only.
The steamer J. N. Teal may have
made her last trip to Lewiston. She
is bound up the Columbia today for
Kennewick and way points only, and at
the' upper river town her freight for
Lewiston will be transferred to the
steamer Inland Empire.
'-.' The big steamer, one of the best
freight and passenger carriers on the
lower rivers, has been found hardly
suitable Sfor the upper rlver and Us
ewlf t , water. Her engines are not
-heavy enough, and on her last trip It
was necessary to discharge part of her
cargo so that she could stem the
rapids.
:-' If the present plans of The Dalles
Columbia line carry, the steamer In-
- land Kmplre will either remain above
Kennewick altogether or else .she and
the steamer Twin Cities will alternate
on the Portland-Lewlston run. The
''Teal will then care for middle and up
per river freights as far as Kenne
wick. The Teal will bring down Tuesday
and Wednesday a big party of Lewis
ton people bound for the Rose Festival.
They are starting from Lewiston on
the steamer, Inland Empire and will
transfer at Kennewick. The Inland
Kmplre will return to. Lewiston after
& cargo of livestock and wheat.
The steamer Twin Cities has had ad
ditional passenger cabins, built and oil
burners installed and will soon be
ready for service. The Inland Empire
will undergo the same changes later
- on.

JASON TO TOUCH AT CUBA
Blue Funnel Liner Will Bring Raw
Sugar Cargo to Puget Sound.
TacOma,Wash., June 6. (I. N. S.) . '
Diverted from the regular course of the
Blue Funnel steamships plying from
the United Kingdom to the north Pa
cific coast by way of Panama, the Blue
Funnel liner Jason, which' sailed from
Birkenhead on May 28 for Puget sound,
has been ordered to touch at Batancas,
Cuba, to load a large consignment of
raw sugar for north Pacific con
signees i- .....-...;'. .-.
The dispatch of the Jason to Ma
tan z as marks a new departure for Blue
Funnel steamers. Lack of United King
dom freight is believed to have brought
about the change.
Previous steamers In this service
have been coming here direct from Liv
erpool via Kingston. Jamaica and Pan
ama ports As the Cuban port Is prac
tically in the direct line of Steamers
coming out of the United Kingdom via
Panama, there Is eevry reason to be
lieve that the Blue Funnel line plans to
engage in the sugar trade on an exten
sive scale, as there is a large demand
for the raw product on this coaaf,
BEAR TO CARRY EXCURSION
The steamer Bear of the Big Thre
fleet is to become a river excursion

reaches port. j-J
Wednesday, June 16. she will sail
again for San Francisco and Los An
geles. Out of Yukon June 20.
Seattle, Wash., June 5. (I. N.-S.)
Today's cable advices to local shipping
men as to the opening of the upper
Tukon and the resumption of ' steam
boat navigation this season indicate
that the first arrivals from the Klon
dike and other Interior districts will
reach Seattle by June 20, also that
passengers departing from Seattle to
day and tomorrow should make Daw
son by the 20th ff thig month.

San Francisco Hotel
Rates Are Not High
awBusvss w woman wave at Btaging
Effort to Correct raise Xeport;
ralaoe Charges 9X60 to 96.
San Francisco hotels are advertising
their normal rates. Since the big ex
position opened , there -has been con
siderable complaint concerning the
charg. of some hostelrles by return
ing travelers, and finally echoes of
their protests have j been heard by
boni faces of the .Golden Gate and
they- are making effort to counter
act the adverse effect of such re
ports. j
High rates,; however, are -not being
charged by the highest class hotels
of San Francisco. From the first
they, have, stood for the protection of
the visitor and despite the strong
temptation to take advantage of the
situation, have from the first main
tained the normal rate that obtained
before . the exposition opened. -
For example. Inquiry at the Palace
hotel in San Francisco shows that Its
rates now are the same It maintained
prior to the fair. It has 100 rooms
at $2.50, ISO at $3, 150-at 'JS. 50. 100
at $4, 100 at $5 and $100 at 16, while
suites range from' 7j per day upward..
Reports reaching here are to the
effect that the Fairmont likewise
has not . raised its rate.
