.HODCARR|ERS ARE
STILL HOLDING OUT.
Have APPARENTLY Gained But Lit
tie, But Are Still Sticking to #
Their Demands.

The Hodcarriers' Union of Richmond,
have apparently not gained anything In
their strike for a five cent increase per
hour, and many, contractors have signed
ar, agreement not to grant the Increase
demanded.
But the hodcarriers are steadfast in
their purpose, and the union has de-
cared that any member clusht retnrn-
Ing to work for less than Is cents an
hour shall he fined not more than $a5
nor less than so. Any member caught
working with II non-unlon man MS q hol-
carrier shall he fined not moro than
$40. not less than IS; and In either case,
II he falls TO pay the fine he shall be
expelled from the union and deprived
Of entrance into any other union here
or elsewhere.
Some of the members of the union have
heen granted the raise and have return
ed to work; the rest nre holding hack
and are decided not to return to work
unless the raise he granted
A few new lahorers have been EN-
ployed, together with non-union men;
but many of the non-lnion hod carriers
are coming to the union, eating cards
and supporting the unions demand, and
1t Is the hope of the union that within
a few weeks all non-uIii,tn bod carriers
VIII have Joined the organization.
Mr.. John r. Wilson said last night that
lie Is able to employ plenty Of men on
the outside and Is not dependent upon
tho members f,the union for his ein-
ployes. Mr.. A. Il. Thomas also Informed
tho reporter that lie WAS already paying
twenty-five and half cents an hour and
had made the raise for only two and II
half cents. He said that he would refuse
to sign the agreement put forward by the
other contractors, as he believes hat il
cannot be of any benefit, Otherwise the
aituatIon remains unchanged.

VOLCANIC ACTIVITY IS
FOUND BY MAZAMAS

BELLINGHAM, Wash, August TO-
On the northwest slope of Mount Ba-
ker some remarkable exhibitions Of vol
canic activity were seen by the Mazamas
who reached the top. Steam issued with
roaring sound from wide creyasses and
pools of boiling water in the cracks of
the rocks were seen. The discovery is
said to have been entirely new, and
Professor Landes, of the State Univer-
sity, pronounces the discovery pheno-
menal. Because Of the immense heat the
rocks in the vicinity are bare Of snow and
fine sample from pool Of pure sui
phur which is constantly being deposited
on the rocks, was secured by Lanes,

DOG MAKES HEROIC SWIM.

HOOD RIVER, Ore, August l0.-Dogs
have been known to 90 to almost any
length to return to former masters, but
one which swan the Columbia river OPP
posite Mosier few days ago to return
to its home there is thought to be with
out precedent. The dog in question is
a highly bred and intelligent Scotch col
lie and was formerly the property OF a
despondent sbeepherder who poisoned
himself.
The dog refused to quit the side Of his
master as long as he lived, and even
after he was dead remained on the spot
where he had last seen him for many
days. Finally Marshal Wood, who has a
place at Mosier, adopted him. After he
became deputy sheriff, Wood could not
look after the animal properly and gave
him to butcher, who lived on the north
bank of the Columbia river. A few days
ago he swan the river above Mosier and
returned home. The river at that point
is about two miles wide and the feat is
considered a remarkable one.
