large coaling stations in Manila bay is
pressing. 1t is also likely some pro-
vision will be made for docking faclli-
lies at Manila Coaling stations will
be established in the harbor of San

OYSTER
OPENERS
STRIKE.
Refuse TO Accept Reduction Of
Five Cents Per Gallon Made
by the Dealers.

The Oyster Openers Union OF this Sec
ton with Headquarters at Warren, has
forbidden It's members TO 30 to work.
The trouble arises from the reduction
in wages OF the men who open oysters
from twenty cents a gallon TO iifteen cents
The reduction was made a year ago. but
the men were not strong enough TO re-
sist then and went 10 work
This year however, they intend 10
make determined effort, and as this is
the largest oyster season In years, they
hope with the scarcity of experienced help
TO bring the dealers TO terms.
The men claim there Is no reason for
the reduction as there Is no scarcity OF
oysters and the price remains the same.
Almost all OF the expert openers are
members Of the union, but there are
few non-upion men who are at work now
for teh lower wages.
