Stone, Back From the East, Finds Interest in New Line Aroused, EAST ALIVE WITH ACTION Factories "Want Double Shifts Belle v Xna of War WU1 Kelirve ' nipping Greatly. Back from a trip through the New England and Atlantic coast states, Cat K. Stone, general traffic manager cf the Great Northern Pacific Steamship company, declared today that the experiment In the Honolulu service Is becoming well advertised throughout the country. The result, he said, ac centuated by the fast time made by the steamer Great Northern on her first round trip, means already a large list for the second voyage. "We demonstrated that the Great Northern can make the fastest time ver made between San Francisco and onolulu," said Mr. Stone. "When one considers that the winter tourist sea son In California really does not begin until after the holidays, we think tho prospects for a heavy travel are un surpassed." Mr. Stone said the business done by the boat on her first trip to the Islands was far in excess of expecta tions. Nearly twice a many pas sengers 'Will be ready for the seconl sailing, he believed, with a constantly Increasing list on successive sailings. Mr. Stone found business far above normal in tnany of the eastern cities he visited. This was chiefly true at Boston, where he said all the factories are running full time and many of them day and night. The high price of copper, he said, is one probable ex planation as well as the heavy manu facture of other commodities Into war munitions. Water traffic Is bound to increase in ail parts of the world, Mr. Stone aid. as soon as the war pressure Is off, to relieve the shortage of tonnage. Mr. Stone's mission to the east was to help popularize the Honolulu travel He will return to San Francisco, his headquarters, in a few rays. SOUTHEASTER HITS COAST San Francisco Bar Breaks and Ships Stay Inside. San Francisco, Pec. 13. (P. N. S.)

Storm warnings are displayed from Ban Diego to Canada, and though (.he wind at Point Reyes decreased from 66 miles an. hour at four a. m., to six allies at eight o'clock, the United States weather bureau regarded it merely a lull rathe than a break in the storm.

MEAT CUTTERS IN A NUMBER OF BUT HER PLACES OUT TODAY Disagreement .Between the Uniorrs and Proprietors Over Length Qf Day Cause. Meat cutters in a number of Port land butcher shops are riot working to day because of a disagreement be tween the proprietors and the local union over the number of hours work. The trouble broke Saturday, when a union official ordered the men to change their hours of work, beginning this morning, and notitied t..e meat market owners to this effect. When seen today Milton J. Jones, proprietor of Jones' Market, said; "My meat cutters are not working today but I am not crippled. "The union delegate came Into my shop Saturday morning at 9 and told the men not to report for work until 7 on Monday morning. They have been reporting at 6:30. At 11 o'clock he came to me and told me that ths men would not come to work until the later time. I told him that If they did not report at the usual time they did not need to come until li) o'clock, when I would give them their time. "At 11 o'clock Saturday I did not have time to notify the public nor to call upon the other meat market own ers for a consultation. Had we been given time and an opportunity to talk with the men an open break" may have been avoided." x Charles Rudeen, proprietor of the State market, at Pirn and Salmon streets, said: . "J have a number of steamboats that leave the wharf at 7 a. rn., and must be supplied before that time. There is also a restaurant trade that must have its orders filled before 7 a. m. The men make an un reasonable demand because of the necessity of their being on the Job at an earlier hour than they name. The rush yof trade here is from 5 to 6 p. m., when people are quitting work and going home, and we cannot let men off at that time. Perhaps I will be able to do better by my employes than the union asks. I do not know. There are dull hours in the day be tween 10 a. m. and 4 p. m.. and some arrangements might have been made, but Is necessary to have men here at the hours the union wants to take them off duty. This is an open shop, and I hope to do right by my men. They ask what would mean the seri ous loss of trade to this market." At the headquarters of the Meat cutters Union. 2054 First street O. A. YS'esterbeck, business agent for the Union, said: "All we are aeking is a ten hour day through the week, with 12 hours or. Saturday. We are making no de mand lor wages. We asked the em ployers to confer with us two weeks ago in a circular letter, but received no reply. We are willing for the em ployers to arrange the hours between 7 in the morning and 6 at night W have a 95 per cent organization. The Email markets In the residence dis tricts are not giving us any trouble. It is a few of the big markets in the down town districts. We have about 250 men in the union and about 175 men out" COUNTY COURT NEWS A communication from E. I.

Northwest Brewers' Jss'n Is Expected to Announce Def inite Plan Wednesday. Seattle, Wash.. Dec 13. (P. N. S.) The right of breweries in Washington to manufacture liquor for sale outside the state will, it Is believed here today, be the basis of a renewed attack by the liquor interests on the artate-wlde pro hibltlon law which the supreme court upheld In a decision rendered last week. The Northwest Brewers' association ls not yet determined its future course of action, but It is contldered certain that further legal proueudlngs to teBt points of the law undecided by tbe supreme courts decision will be Instituted. v In the event that suit Is brought to settle the right of breweries to con tinue to make beer for disposed - else where, the United States district court will probably b chosen as the tribunal befgre which the case will be filed. The action will be entirely now, and will be independent of the suit which the supreme court decided adversely to the liquor interests. James B. Howe, coun sel for the Olympia Brewing company, has been authorised to determine the angles from which the prohibition measure is to be attacked. Definite announcement of the brew ers' plans is expected Wednesday when tne executive committee of the asso elation will bold a meeting.
