Wilcox returned this morning from
an extended trip to the east, during
which he searched for other steamers,
which it is rumored he will place In
the oriental service out of Portland.
The interest of the Portland finan
cier and flour miller in the oriental
trade dates hack to the time tho Port
land .'v Asiatic Steamship Co. was
turned over to R. p. Schwerin, also
head f t' e Pacific Mail.
The ultimate result, the abandon
ment of the Portland line that the
Pacific Mall might have full sway, was
predicted by Wilcox, and he is said to
have planned such a line of his own
for a number of years.

be built along tlie lines of the steamers

Lafferty Boycotted
By Old Jitney Union
Jitney Men Object to Actions of Form
er Union Attorney Who Began New
Organisation When Denied Beqnerta.
A. W. Lafferty. ex-congressman, has
been put on the unfair list by the
original jitney drivers' union, known as
Chauffeurs' union No. li?3. This ac
tion was takn by the union last Mon
day night.
Lafferty was formerly attorney for
the union, but lost out when he sought
to levy J250 a month on the chauf
feurs. He also set up a gas filling
station and sought the exclusive pa
tronage of the union drivers, and
when he did not get it began the or
ganization of another union, which the
original union calls the ' dual organi
sation." So the war between Mr. Lafferty
and the drivers seems to be on. Tlie
union expects to obtain the support of
the Federated Trades council in plac
ing Lafferty on the unfair list, as It
is affiliated with the American Federa
- tion of Labor.

There were no casualties resulting
from the explosion, so far as known,
although -el persons sleeping on the
second floor of the barracks had nar
row escapes.
The dynamite was placed just in
side tlie door of the barracks hall and
the entire front of the building was
demolished. A box of toys intended
lor a post Christmas celebration was
blown through the windows of the
Montana garage, more than 'J00 feet
away.
Among the buildings damaged were
the Tail hotel, a lour story brick struc
ture adjoining, and the Pinion hotel,
one of the largest in the city, located
across the street. The windows of
both buildings were shattered and as
tlie 300 or more guests, frightened by
the explosion, rushed into tlie street,
thieves attempted to take advantage
of the confusion to rob the third and
fourth floors in the Flnlon. The at
tempt failed, due to the vigilance of
one of the employes and a cordon of
police thrown around the building, ar
