' When the Federated ' Trades r Council meets tonight that body will be asked to declare all the mill unfair, and a gen-, sal boycott Win be placed upon them at once. : - 1 r - - This ' will mean a complete tie-up of their business, as teamsters will refuae .to handle their material, carpenters will not ua It for. building1 purposes, and no union roan of any organisation will have anything to do with their product, " Teamsters are mow impatiently watting for auch instructions. ' Ever since the ! strike they hare shown a dislike to hav ing anything to do in the way of handling any material which has accumulated a the mills. p'-' . T . Pickets on duty yesterday have brought ' favorable reports to headquarters. The mills closed were the Hand Manufactur ing Company and the North Pacific Plan ing Mill, although steam is being kept up hvths latter. Nicolat Bros.' are run ning with a .light crew, while at the Northwest there, are 12 men at work, nearly all of whom are stockholders.' The Alnslie mill is running today with a much lighter crew than yesterday. ; The Jv A. Martin Company is more of a, sawmill than planing mill and la run ning about full handed. . The-firm Is busy filling" a large order for the . Western Lumber Company and does not . really come under the jurisdiction of the Amal ' gamated Woodworkers, and thus far they have not taken any action in the matter. The pickets are actively employed In discharging their arduous duties, and re port many exciting incidents. Yesterday they prevented about 10 nonunion men from going to work? one of. them being' forcibly ejected after he had gone to work. They intend to adopt peaceable means In conducting the strike Ind ex pect to run along these lines. The Universal mill has informed the managers of the strike that neither union nor nonunion men will be employed by the mill uhtll the trouble is settled. . After tonight. (When the .Federated Trades Council Is expected to give per mission for the various mills to be boy cotted, the union expects plain sailing, and believes that differences will soon .be ...adjusted. . ".. SeVeral 'of the men have gene to work in the two union mills, and ,:as soon. as the plants are increased in else positions SfrA, be. made, for many more men. These are the Gay & Co. and Fred Swarts mills. The proprietors are exerting every ef fort, with one or two exceptions, to transact business and keep their mills running.
