A COSTLY STRIKE,
Eastport Is Losing Thousands
Each Week in Wages.
Some of the Factories Have Started
at the Old Prices.
Unless Others Do So Outlook Tor Winters
Business Is Poor.

PASSPORT, Oct S.-The strike of the
sardine workmen which began here, a
week ago, is still on, but it seems to be the
opinion, today, that the men will return
to work, next Thursday or Monday, at the
Cd rate of wages.
This is the best part of the pack
ing season and the factory pro-
prietors do not want to shut down when
raw material is so plenty and cheap, not
wlthstanding that they have a large
amount of goods packed, which they pro
pose to hold over until next year, when a
rlS' In prices may reasonably be expected.
The cut in wages and the consequent
strike is being severely felt Ey all business
men in the city, and if this condition of
affairs continues, the outlook for Eastport,
tha coming winter is gloomy enough. The
sardinc season lasts only about five months
aud the present is the best part of it.
When running full time the factories pay
OUT for labor, each week. from s12, 900 to
sl5, GOO. and the withdrawal of that sum
from the business of the city comes hard
on all interests. Many workmen are be
coming discouraged and have gone to
Massachusetts or elsewhere to seek en-
ployment.
Hallett Bros. have continued work at
the old rate, and Mclean Bros, who at
first cut down with the others, have re-
-umed at the old rate, so that it ia hoped
that the other factories will also start in
two or three days and trust to the coming
winter to arrange scale Of wages that
will be satisfactory to all concerned. The
behavior of the men during the strike was
admirable.
Today S races at McFaul park were in
offered with by rain which began shortly
frer noon. Only one race took place, the
3-minute class, being won by Maud X. of
