Action of Masters and Pilots
Association Dispels Hope
of Averting Calamity
GREAT COMMERCIAL DISASTER
Chicago and the West Seriously Men
aced, and the Situation Will Result
in Millions of Dollars Damage to
Business Interests, Besides Loss OF
Employment to Over 100000 Men.

Chicago, May 13-Chicago and the
west are menaced by great commercial
disaster in consequence of the tie-up of
lake commerce following the rejection
of the wage offer made by the Lake
Carriers Association Any hope that
may have existed that the calamity
would be averted was dispelled last
night when report from the
masters and pilots at Cleveland said
returns from twenty-one of total of
twenty-six harbors showed that the
owners proposition had been rejected
by an overwhelming majority.
With no sign of weakening on either
side the masters and pilots hold the
ky to a situation that will result in
the loss OF employment to more i)aan
10000 men for an indefinite period
and damage to business interests that
viii mount into the millions.
The following table shows the result
of the battle over the wage scale:
Men out of employment :. 100000
Lake ports affected :. 49,. 90
Chicago warehouses affected so
Loss of boats to Chicago
shippers ou
Seventy big steamers that should be
bringing general merchandise to CHI
cago from the east remain tied to their
docks. The product of western mills
and factories, which should be flowing
to the seaboard by the lake route is
stored in warehouses or is going in
small quantities by railroad cars. In
stead of 20,000.000 bushels OF grain be-
ing loaded into lake vessels for ship
ment, scarcely half million has been
sent forward to eastern and foreign
consumers. On Lake Erie ports 100.-
600 tons Of coal Is aboard ship but not a
wheel can turn to bring 1t.
Transportation OF coarse freight on
the great lakes has been narrowed
down to craft enrolled by the Lumber
Carriers Association and not connect
ed with the Lake Carriers body to the
few independent freightvrs that will
sign special contracts with the Masters
and Pilots Association and to the Can
adam boats that cannot enter the coast
trade between American ports, but can
carry from American to Canadian
points and reverse. The passenger
boats have not yet been affected.
Mariners Oespondent.
IN local circles yesterday the feeling
was one OF dependency. AS the lum-
Der carriers and the masters and pilots
have succeeded in settling their diff
ferences, the vessels of this, lumber fleet
were free to take grain and seven of
them were placed for 100000
bushels of corn to Buffalo at ~ cents.
This was an advance OF half a cent
over last prices and meant s,lbstan-
tial loss to the shippers. After this fleet
Is loaded there is not much hope of Sc.
curing boats until the Canadians can
get ships into Chicago.
There are about 100000 bushels OF
grain now aboard vessels in Chicago
which must be taken out If the strike
runs dnto warm weather.

One of the city's well known men,
who INDUCES III agricultural pursuits
on a small scale, more for amusement
than anything else, but also Lecausc
the fruits of his industry render him
independent of the local market, as
far as garden sass" is concerned, has
discovered IL new bug. 1t would not
do to give the mans name to the pub
lie because he fears that he would be
overwhelmed with correspondence from
the scientific portion of the country's
population, to an extent that would
prevent him from following his daily
vocation, and also deprive him Of the
necessary time in which to hoe his
corn and potatoes, so suffice it to say
that he lives at 8 Gannett street. In
speaking of the bug. yesterday morn
ing, he said that it was the first bug
that he had seen that ate up vegetable
matter that the farmer did not want.
Then he went on to tell about the
daily diet Of the bug. He has, he said,
a row of tall weeds on the outer edge
Of his garden. along by the fence. He
did not know the variety of the weed,
as he had not looked it up in his
Ubtdlly, out THAT IIc pug eats IL lie -
certain, for he saw the creature at
work. The bug is described as re-
scmbling the squash bug in general
contour, but is three times as large.
He is dark brown or black in color, with
yellow stripes trlvcrsing his back
longitudinally, and the way he goes at
those weeds and devours them, the
man says, is good to look upon. When
the bugs started in upon the weeds,
they were a very thrifty lot of plants,
but now many of them are but a naked
stem, fast whitening in the summer
sun. The work has been completed
about half the length of the row, and
the man thinks that, with fair weather.
the bugs will work themselves ont OF
a job about Saturday night. II is
hoped by the farmer population. that
this new representative of the
coleoptera will prove as beneficial in
the destruction of weeds as he is adj
vertised to be. and that if so, proper
measures will be taken to ensure his
propagation on d large scale.
