TRUCKDRIVERS STRIKE
For $2.50 Day On Account of Increased
Prices or Llvlni Expenses.
Portland, Aug. 1. A mAlority of tho
truckmen and draymon in the employ of
tho various traiiBfor companies In this
city went on a striko nt 1 p. m. yestor
unv, uccauso inoir omployors rofusod to
ralsothofr wages from $2 to $2.50 r
They havo been ondeavoring to so
curo this Incrcaso of wagos for somo
tlmo. First thoy applied to thoir omploy
ors for It, and, falling to receive any en
couragement, thoy applied to tho mer
chants and othor patrons of their em
ployers, asking them to grant an In
crease in tho amount paid for hauling.
They recolsed no oncouregoment from
these, so hut a month ngothoy organised
a union, nnd n fow days ago made a do
inand for tho desired increase of pay.
Tho mnnagors of tho transfer compan
ies hold a moethiir last Saturday evening
ami decided that they could not ralto
tho men's jiav, so yeeterday tho men
struck, and 125 men nro out.
inu companies wero nut to some
trouble hunting up men to take chnrgo
ui uieir irucKH ami
attend to tint nnlirn
of
their customers, but thoro was but
little interruption to business
Tho ground on which the men demand
tin Increase of wages Is that tho cost of
living and of nil they havo to buy has
increased oi iaio, wiiiiont any corres
ponding increase of wages, nnd that
times nro mum linnlor with them now
than during tho hard times of n few
years ago,
Tho companies tay that tho increnso of
pay nsked would bo a serloiiB matter to
them in the course, of nyoarj that their
business is bolng reduced by the build
ing of railroad tracks to many ware
houses, and by tho competition of deliv
ery concerns and outsido truckmen nnd
expressmen: that thoy cannot increaso
thoir charges to merchants, etc., and
that there is hut llttlo profit In their
business any longer.
Quo employer said somo of tho strik.
ors wero nlready willing to go to work,
but lie Should not omnlov nnv mnn wJm
liiul quit work; lie had given them
warning that he should not, mid he in
tended to nbido by what ho had said.
Ono of the employers said yestor
day: "No ono can bkmo the men for on
deavoring to secure an increase of pay,
for, as thoy say, tho cost of living has
Increased of late, but if the employers
cannot afford It, how can thoy make the
Increase?
