LABOR PROBLEMS OF YAKIMA.
All Industrie Are Confronted With
Sliortnee of Help.
laboring men are wanted badly to
, complete the grading on the North
Yakima & Valley railway, says the
I Yakima Republic. The work will be
completed In two weeKs If help can
be secured, but with the coming on of
the. wheat harvest, the fruit season
and the haying season, It looks as if
It will be more than two week" before
i the grading will be completed. Only
14 men are now reported to he work
ing there and the wages paid are the
highest In the history of the north
west for that class i.labor. The men
are receiving $2.50 per day and are
criarged $4.50 per week for board.
At the present time nil classes of
lr.-lutry are feeling the need of labor
In the aklma vallev. Farm heln Is
wanted more than any other kind, still
men can find work at almost anything
they are looking for. Farm hands are
paid from $35 to $40 per month and
board. This fact is what "stumps"
the eaMern farmer when he first
comes to Yakima to make his home.
He was not used to such wages In the
eastern states and It is some time
, before he can see the necessity of pay-
lug them here.
The beginning of the wheat harvest
In eastern Washington has taken all
the surplus floating population there
for the time being. High wages have
been paid, but It Is reported that
there is such an Influx of wagc-earn-
wag.s have been reduced.
This will
probably bring some of the men to
the aklma valley. Just now they are
badly needed In the hayfields, where
they are paid $2 a day and board.
All the available men who want to
worn are picked up on the streets of
the city and hustled off to the farms
as fast a- they come in. Some of the
farmer have been rlelaved conslder-

encouraging.

Rio do Janeiro, July 21. The third
r.in-Amerlcan congress was opened
here today without flourish or elab
orate ceremonies, but with simple dig
nity, as becomes a gathering of rep
resentatives of a number of republics.
William I. Buchanan, of New York,
the head of the United States delega
tion, and as such representing the
state department in Washington, D.
C, called the congress to order and
delivered a brief address In which he
gave n history of the first two Pan
American congresses and of the re
sults accomplished by them. Senor
Don Joaquin Nabuco, ambassador ex
traordinary and plenipotentiary of
Brazil, .who heads the Brazilian dele
gation, also delivered an address, wel
coming the foreign delegates from the
sister republics to Rio de Janeiro.
The opening session was brief and
was mainly devoted to the arrange
ment of the preliminaries of the con
gress. The question of the time of
the session, the order of business and
other details came up for considera
tion and were referred to committees,
which will report to the congress at
the next session. After the prelimi
naries are definitely settled, the pro
gram of the subjects to be considered
by the congress will be taken up. The
consideration of the scope and limi
tation of the subjects will probably
consume the entire time of several
sessions.
Besides the United States ull the
South and Central American republics
represented at the second Pan-American
congress are represented at the
present congress, excepting Venezue
la, which has sent no delegates. Va
rious reasons are given for the fail
ure of Venezueln to send delegates.
According to one statement, President
Castro refused to appoint delegates,
because he suspected the United Stales
of designs upon the Independence of
the other American republics nnd
feared that the congress had been ar
ranged merely In the Interest of the
plena of the United States. Another
version Is that the real reason for
President Ciistro s attitude Is merely
his disappointment that Rio de Jan
elro and not Caracas was selected as
tile place for holding the congress.
The delegation of the United States
consists of William I. Buchanan, of
Nev, York, formerly minister to Ar
gentina and first American minister
to Panama, who was also one of the
American delegates to the second Pan-
American congress, held In Mexico In
1002; Edmund J. James, president of
the University of Illinois; Leo S
Itt.we. urofessor of political economy,
University of Pennsylvania; Tulle. Lar
rlnaga, civil engineer of Porto Rico;
James S. Harlan, of Illinois, son of
Associate Justice John M. Harlan, of
the United States supreme court;
t'harles Ray Dean, of Illinois, now
chief of the bureau of appointments
of the department of state, Is secre
tary of the delegation, and Frank L.
Jnannlnl, official translator of the
bureau of Insular affairs, war depart
ment, Is official interpreter.
Among the delegates of the other
American republics are Senor Walker
Martlncz, the Chilean minister to the
United States, representing Chile at
the congress; Soldero Baborano and
Fouslno Davlla, representing Hondu
ras; Manuel Delgado and Francisco
Antonio Reyes, representing Salvador;
Dr. Casasus, representing Mexico. Sec
retary of State Root will arrive here
next Wednesday and will remain here
12 days, before he will proceed on his
way south. He will attend some of
the sessions of the congress, but not
as regular delegate of the United
States.
The program of the congress, which
has been practically agreed upon at
the preliminary meeting In Washing
ton In March, will Include sanitary
and quarantine regulations, uniformity
of patent laws, International recogni
tion of diplomas .and of practitioner.
of the learned professions, questions
affecting commercial Intercourse, and
an International railroad. Jt la also
expected that the so-called Drago
doctrine, which is opposed to the for
cible collection of private debts by
one nation from another, will come up
for consideration in some form.
Monster Englnm for U. P.
An engine of the 200-class, tiew to
the mountain division of the Union
Pacific, was received by the company
and will be tested In hill climbing be
tween Cheyenne and Laramie, says
the Cheyenne Tribune. The engine Is
of the simple type with cylinders 28
x30, a somewhat longer stroke than
those of the 1600 and 1900 classes. It
Is claimed the engine enn handle 200
tons more than the compounds and
