Portland Market Report

Receipts on the market for
tie week ending today have been;
cattle 1484, calves 81, hogs l071,
sheep 1895, horses and mules So
Most of the cattle have been
from California and were Of
good quality and the prices at
which they were sold indicate
that the lower prices looked for
at this time did not apply. The
run of grass cattle has not start
ed and while the packers IN
doubtedly expect to get lower
priced cattle the supply, both in
quauity and quality has not war
ranted a reduction.
The sheep market has been
well supplied throughout the
week. Prices indicate a steady
market. There were all sorts of
sheep offered and the best prices
quoted in the sales which follow
brought all they were worth.
The hog market is slowly
following the lead of the River
markets and while prices at Port
land are $3.50 per hundred higher
than at other points the market
is 10 cents lower than last week.

PLANS ARE LAID TO CURTAIL
POWER OF HOUSE OF LORDS

London, March 21.-Premier Asauith
gave notice in the house of commons to-
night of three resolutions bearing on the
veto power of the house of lords. The
first declares it is expedient that the
house of lords be disabled by law from
rejecting or amending a money bill, but
that any such limitation shall not be
taken to diminish or qualify the exist
ing rights of the house of commons.
The second resolution declares 1t is ex-
pedient that the powers of the house of
4laads ,,ii,~ rliIS
restricted by the law SO that any
such bill which has passed the house
OF commons in three successive sessions
and has been rejected by the house of
lords in each of these sessions, shall be-
come law without consent of the house
of lords, on royal assent being declared,
provided that at least two years have
elapsed between the date the bill was first
Introduced and the day 1t passed the third
time.
The third resolution proposes to limit

chief objection among the supporters of
the government is made to the provision
that two years must elapse between the

PLAN Is AGREED
UPON TO SETTLE
WITH FIREMEN

Chicago, March N.-All questions in
dispute between the 27,oo0 firemen on
western railroads and the railroad man
ayers will be amicably settled according
to an arrangement reached today through
the aid of United States Commissioner
of Labor Neill. 1t was agreed by w. g.
Carter, president of the Brotherhood or
Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, and
his committee representing the men and
the general managers committee repre-
senting the AZ railroads involved to settle
the controversy in the following manner:
The question of seniority or the promo
tion of old time fremen over new men,
and the question of representation by the
union of firemen who have been promoted
to be enginemen are to be compromised
before an arbitration Is attempted.
The demand of the men for an increase
IN wages of 121a per cent Is then to be
submitted to arbitration unuer tne Ero-
man act.
In previous negotiations the railroads
had agreed to arbitrate the wage ques-
ton but had declined to arbitrate the
other two points, on the ground tnat
they were points Of discipline and author
ity only.
1t was learned that both sides were
brought to an agreement to compromise
through the insistence of Commissioner
Neill that something had to be done
quickly. Mr.. Neill informed each side
that mediation had been In progress since
last Thursday and that apparently no
progress had been made. He declared
that unless action was taken within "a
hours he would return to Washington.
The decision to compromise followed
quickly.
The general managers tonight issued the
following statement:
"a settlement of the whole matter PROB
,bly will be made tomorrow, which VIII
be satisfactory to both Sides

NEGOTIATIONS
TO STOP STRIKE
AT STANDSTILL

Philadelphia, March 21.-Negotiations
for settlement of the street car strike
are once more at standstin and the
strikers in statement issued by c. A.
Pratt tonight announce the intention OF
keeping up the fight until public opinion
forces the company to agree to their de-
mands.
C. o. Pratt, the national organizer at

Senator McNichol and notified the latter
that the strike could be settled by the
reinstatement of the old men and the
arbitration of the cases of the men dis
charged, but that the agreement entered

Senator McNichol, according to Mr..
Pratt, declared the company would not
accede to these demands.
According to the labor leaders all con-
ferences looking to the termination of the
strike are at an end. A conference will
be held in Wilkesbarre tomorrow be-
tween state labor leaders, at which union
labor will be urged to carry out the prop
osition for q statewide strike which was
decided upon at convention of the State
Federation of Labor recently held in New

There were no passengers in the car
which struck the piece of dynamite. The
conductor and motorman escaped injury
but all the windows In a parochial school
nearby were shattered by the force OF
