MILL OPERATORS WAIT
FOR OPEN SHOP PLAN
President of Lumber Exchange OPP
poses Proposed Wage
Scale.

Every mill operator who is a member
of the Lumber Exchange has shut down
for & provisional period to enable the
mill operators to readjust their shops
on the open shop plan.
The demands OF the mill workers, if
adopted by the mill operators, would
place the latter organization in unfair
competition with the operators Of other
cities who are regularly furnishing
large quantities of work ia this city,
and would reduce the profits of the
local mill owners TO such a point that
further eurtailment would mean prohi-
bftion of the business in Washington
was the statement OF W. P. Galliher
president of the Lumber Exchange
made to a Times reporter this morn
ing.
The members Of the Lumber Exchange
are willing to pay the mill owners ac-
cordfng to merit. but viii not submit
to the demands made in the wage
scale submitted to them by the strik-
ers.
The members OF the Lumber Ex-
change say that the wage scale submit
ted by the mill workers is not and can
not be applied or enforced in the shops
outside Of Washington and consequent
~ would tend to work a hardship upon
the local dealers who have to compete
with outside products
The local mill owners have in the
past considered eight hours as consti-
tuting a days labor, whereas In other
cities ten hours are considered d day,
and in most cases the local men are
paid the same wage that is paid to
the ten-hour a day man in the other
cities and it is, therefore, impracti-
cable TO consider the demands of Local
Union No I103.
The mill workers at their Meeting
held last night, decided TO stand pat
for the present, and as yet are not
ready to issue a statement of their
side of the controversy.
1t is reported on good authority that
the tie-up may be general in the build
ing trades in this city. as the mill work
ers are backed up by the Building
Trades Council.

were either eenterea in St. Paul or fol-
lowed the movements Of that stock. The
room was full of stories, in which the
names of the ST, Paul and the Northern
Pacific roads were linked. It was init

the dining room, but was captured by
means of loop and dragged out IN the
yard. Here it made savage attack
on the policeman. who then shot him.
A day or two before the dog mad
career, il had been in a fight with an
other dog, and was bitten In the head.
Several persons think the terror was
suffering from the wound, and attacked
the boys wien temporarily crazy from
the pain.
The parents of the children are much
worried over the incident, despite the
fact that both went off to school this
morning, proud of the notoriety which
they received because of the contact
with the dog. IN case the examination
of the Health Department reveals
hydrophobia, both of the little fellows
with be sent to Baltimore Immediately
for treatment in the Pasteur Institute.
Neither of the wounds is serious, and
unless it is found that the dog was
mad no anxiety IS felt for their recov-
